NEW: The Department of Education has announced major collections efforts against millions of defaulted federal student loan borrowers will resume in early May. Government efforts will include sweeping collections activities. Seizures of tax refunds and Social Security payments.

NEW damning details on Pete Hegseth: Minutes before U.S. jets hit Yemen, Gen. Kurilla sent strike intel through a secure gov system. Hegseth turned around and dropped it in at least two Signal chats—on his personal phone. Jet timing. Target locations. And he still has the job.

BREAKING: NBC confirms Pete Hegseth copied classified strike plans from a secure military system—and sent them to his wife, brother, and lawyer over Signal. Trump’s still standing by him. Because in their world, rules are for someone else. LIVES ARE AT STAKE. FIRE HIM.

Jessica LaPointe. Social Security has never paid benefits to undocumented immigrants. That's the law. Yet 6,300 migrants who legally obtained Social Security numbers were suspended so that their financial lives would terminate. This is absolutely unacceptable and un-American. #HandsOff

Bukele is happily holding innocent Venezuelan deportees captive (in exchange for $6M from the U.S. government)—and is now willing to exchange them for Salvadoran political prisoners being held in Venezuela.

there's a county in Alabama where Black people are literally getting sick because the government doesn't provide a working sewer system, and Trump's Justice Department is trying to keep it that way apparently Black people with indoor plumbing is "illegal DEI" ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Trump is single-handedly destroying the US tourism industry. In 2023, international visitors spent more than $213 billion on travel and tourism-related activities within the US. This year, foreign travel to the US has declined significantly, leading to an estimated $64 billion shortfall.

Donald Trump is a failed president.

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

It doesn’t look like the WH has confirmed this officially, but it looks like the writing is on the wall. Soon they will shift their focus from gaslighting us that Hegseth is totally fine and competent, to trying to sell us on the next evil doofus they’ll install.

We don't have time to wait on anyone to save us. Not the Dems, not the courts, not the decent Republicans (there are like two.) Stand up where you are. Throw sand in the gears. Get in the way. Talk back.

Found a price tracker for the impact of #TrumpsTariffs on consumer goods. Prices at the moment are stable but will definitely change in the next few months. This is going to be very helpful for everyone, but especially for #TruthBombs! trumptariffstracker.com/products

A bizarre turn of events in the AEA cases, with Pres Bukele now saying he'll send all the prisoners back to the US if Venezuela releases a commensurate number of prisoners, including opposition members. Underscores how easy release is but also injects a new political angle to the whole mess.
