I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

The Constitutional Crisis that we're in, where Trump can disappear whoever he wants and imprison them in El Salvadore, is because SCOTUS gave Trump immunity. He used that immunity to tell the Supreme Court to fuck off. #ProudBlue #FreeAbregoGarcia #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TheTurdReich

President Trump threatened Harvard Universityā€™s tax-exempt status on Tuesday after the school rebuffed his administrationā€™s demands for a series of policy changes.

I am not particularly religious but even i can see that all Christian leaders; pastors & priests should be making their sermons about the moral depravity of the Trump Repub regime this Easter. Call on your church leaders.

NEW: In a new status report, the government does not provide any new info on Abrego Garcia ā€” but says that if he presents at a port of entry in the U.S., DHS would ā€œremove him to a third country or terminate his withholding of removal because of his membership in MS-13ā€ and remove him to El Salvador

Hmmm....i wonder?

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

Damn right!

The problem i am having listening to @schiff.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is when even when objecting to the Trump Repub regime outrageous actions they don't sound OUTRAGED. They sound too measured and reasonable. How about you?

Exactly. And if he had committed a thousand crimes, it wouldnā€™t be a heavy lift to prove just one. But DHS and the White House offer nothing but conclusory bullshit.

I cannot imagine why Elon Musk would be interested in downloading internal data at the National Labor Relations Board.

I think Iā€™m right

MAJOR SCOOP: The local detective who first accused Mr. Abrego Garcia of being a member of MS-31 was suspended from the police force and indicted merely WEEKS LATER for providing confidential information to a sex worker who he was paying in exchange for sexual acts.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americansā€¦and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Well played.

The US economy is set to lose billions of dollars in revenue in 2025 from a pullback in foreign tourism and boycotts of American products.

Stop them!

The Trump admin has just detained Mohsen Mahdawi, who: ā€“has green card ā€“was Columbia Buddhist club president ā€“saw his best friend shot & killed by Israeli soldier ā€“said "we are against antisemitism because antisemitism is a form of injustice, and injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere"

Friends ā€“ā€“ please boost this, so your friends and followers and networks know where to go in this moment:

šŸ¦‹ BREAKING: Judge Sessions orders Trump not to remove Mahdawi from the US or out of the state of Vermont In similar circumstances to Mahmoud Khalil, Mohsen Mahdawi is a Columbia University student and pro-Palestinian who was arrested by ICE despite holding a valid visa Reuters: archive.is/qMkIk šŸ¦‹

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

One minute Trump had us assembling iPhones and building robots, and now thatā€™s off and he wants us to be coal miners instead.

Trumpā€™s only statement about Putinā€™s Palm Sunday Massacre was to blame Zelensky.

Sanders: He now wants to take away CBSā€™s license because they did a story that criticized him. Oh my word, CBS criticized him! Oh, letā€™s drive them out of business, how terribleā€¦ If you canā€™t take criticism, get out of the political process. This is a democracy

Hold Marco Rubio in contempt and then see whether the administration can figure out how to comply with a court order.

The refusal to provide people due process before shipping them off to foreign prisons is criminal and intolerable. It must not be normalized. Everyone who believes in justice and America needs to speak up now.

File impeachment articles that are just direct quotes from the Declaration of Independence

So now the Trump administration wants affirmative action for MAGAs. You cannot make this stuff up

"I think it's only a matter of time before [a state attorney general] figures out how to file state kidnapping charges against those that are abducting people who are in the country legally..." says former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley.

This is the crowd for Bernie and AOC in a state that voted for Trump by over 36% last year.

Exactly. Trump and Miller want to make El Salvador their Generalgouvernement, and Bukele is stepping up to be their Hans Frank.

On this day, April 14, 2025, the President of the United States openly defied the Supreme Courtā€™s unanimous opinion of April 10, 2025, ordering him to ā€œfacilitate Abrego Garciaā€™s release from custody in El Salvador

Our dystopian reality has outpaced grim hyperbole.

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

ā€œI was just following ordersā€ was not a defense at Nuremberg. And it wonā€™t be a defense in the future here.

Iā€™ve just posted this video message to members of the DC Bar, urging them to vote *AGAINST* AG Pam Bondiā€™s brother to be its next president. Please pass this on to anyone who is eligible to vote. www.instagram.com/reel/DIcQFxt...

Grabbed at his appointment to become a citizen. Is this who we are? šŸ˜•šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø

So by paying our taxes, we pay for a Central American dictator who runs the 116th-richest nation in the world to build five more supermax concentration camps slated to be filled with our countrymen and wholly innocent legal permanent residents of the United States? Is that right?

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador presidentā€™s statements today, weā€™re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a ā€œterrorist,ā€ who was ā€œsent to the right place.ā€ This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

Trump to Bukele: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough."
