Early Saturday morning, the Supreme Court issued an order requiring the Trump admin to comply with judicial orders blocking the deportation of Venezuelan men w/o due process. @mimirocah1.bsky.social on what happened and what it all means

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you. Senator Van Hollen lives this attitude – and planted hope in hopelessness. (I’m not crying, you’re crying.)

New and expectant mothers say they're facing confusion and chaos as they try to use Tricare health insurance, which covers members of the military and their families.

oh my god

Ending the government's free, easy-to-use tax filing service means giant tax prep companies get a big boost while working families pay more.   That's what "efficiency" means to Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

If Marco Rubio is deporting people for Antisemitic speech, (which Mahmoud Khalil has not apparently engaged in), allow me to direct him to the Nazi Chatroom formerly known as Twitter.

“They’re not really using AI, they’re not really driving efficiency. What they’re doing is smashing everything,” the former official said. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Before press came in — but while live feed was running on Bukele’s feed — Trump said to him: “home-growns are next. … You’re gonna need to build about 5 more places.” x.com/nayibbukele/...

If we actually are collecting more than $2 billion a day in tariffs as Trump claims, that’s the biggest tax increase probably in my lifetime and far more than his tax cuts.

The only one of the top 10 billionaires who has made money this years is Warren Buffett. The investing legend is up $21 billion to $163 billion, leapfrogging to 4th place over Bill Gates, Bernard Arnault, Larry Ellison, Larry Page. www.bloomberg.com/billionaires...

The problem is, none of this is breaking through to ‘regular’ low-information people. If we don’t figure out how to do that quickly, I’m not sure we have a chance to stop this momentum.

Deleting websites is the modern day version of book burning. #Don'tLookAway

16-year-old Ukrainian gymnast Taisiya Onofriychuk stuns the world with 5 gold medals at the World Cup! She took top honors in the all-around, hoop, clubs, ribbon, and ball events — a breathtaking performance of strength, grace, and resilience. Ukraine shines! 💙💛

I will never trust a country that thought it was a good idea to elect this ridiculous, malevolent man as its leader.

Dear President Trump, I just did something you wouldn’t know about. I paid my taxes. Glad to do it. I ask just one thing in return. Please don’t spend the money on some tacky Garden of American Heroes. Sincerely Tim

Murals are showing up all over downtown Seattle and I’m here for it. Art is beautiful and I love when it forces others to interact with it.

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Don't overlook this: Trump is leaving Abrego Garcia to rot in a foreign gulag even though the admin can always bring him back and *retry him for deportation in a lawful way.* That they won't do this shows their case against him is nonsense. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1939...

SCOOP: The Social Security Administration (SSA) will be shifting its public communication exclusively to X, sources tell WIRED. This comes as agency plans to cut its regional office workforce by roughly 90 percent.

This is naked corruption that uses federal policy to pour money into the pockets of the President's largest campaign donor. Forcing the nation's 70-some million Social Security recipients to sign up for the website owned by a Nazi saluting billionaire is outrageous.

"The bond market is not like the Supreme Court, or Paul Weiss, or Columbia University, or any of the other institutions Trump has conquered, co-opted, or corrupted." "He cannot scare it into submission. He cannot bribe it." from @jvl.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-fina...

This is the data the hackathon doge dicks will will have access to. I am so fucking angry. Data Terrorists!

The business model of Meta, Amazon, X, and Google relies on selling targeted ad space at a premium based on the profile they've built on you. Your data is big tech's lifeblood, and there's an arms race to accumulate the most. Remember this when you hear about DOGE trying to access SSA or the IRS.

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit. While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall. Hello?

This was officially confirmed yesterday in our meeting. Both the offices that handled press and public relations have been dissolved entirely, and all public announcements will be done on Musk's site from now on.

🧵 We got a pretty nasty load of bad news yesterday on the future of Social Security. It's not hyperbole to say we've passed the point of no return on Trump/DOGE's efforts to kill the agency...

Trump is exploring legal avenues to “deport” U.S. citizens to El Salvador, where the administration has arranged for individuals to be held in a prison notorious for human rights abuses.

In less than one week, many Americans will no longer be able to apply for Social Security benefits over the phone, setting the stage for disruptions and upheaval. Nearly 6 million seniors live more than 46.6 miles, roundtrip, from a field office, per a new analysis. trib.al/5XSPqyL

Ok what’s going on here? Yields are going up which means bond prices are going down. Fewer buyers of the world’s safest asset. Normally when the economy slows, there’s a flight to safety, not away from it. Means the world may be abandoning America. We are flirting with a true crisis.

Stock markets gained and lost two and half trillion dollars because a CNBC anchor thought a blue check X account named “Walter Bloomberg” sounded like a legit source for financial news

The Trump administration plans to fine migrants under deportation orders up to $998 a day if they fail to leave the United States and to seize their property if they do not pay, according to documents reviewed by Reuters reut.rs/3YkxKfm

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says he plans to tell CDC to stop recommending fluoride in drinking water.
