God hopes that delightful 'Fight the Oligarchy' tour makes a stop in Washington, D.C. It sure would be nice to see 200,000 people there in solidarity.

There will be no restoration of a constitutional republic until he is not only removed from power but repudiated as having never legitimately held it. The system simply can't fit back together again without that. You can't shatter the foundation to this degree and then try to rebuild on top of it.

Sanders: He now wants to take away CBS’s license because they did a story that criticized him. Oh my word, CBS criticized him! Oh, let’s drive them out of business, how terrible… If you can’t take criticism, get out of the political process. This is a democracy

This from @anneapplebaum.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

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

AOC: Only 2% of people on Medicaid are able-bodied.. I saw Mike Johnson saying we have to stop all the able-bodied men from being on Medicaid — as if it’s a crime for someone to have healthcare in America. Healthcare is a human right, and everyone should have it.

We are way past impeachment time

Video: Virginia Democrats Launch New Ad Highlighting Sears Downplaying Attacks on Virginia Jobs as Unemployment Rate Jumps (Sears: “It happens all the time… And the media is making it out to be a huge, huge thing, and I don’t understand why”) bluevirginia.us/2025/04/vide...

First they came for the innocent man deported to a Salvadoran gulag on an “administrative error” they falsely claim they’re powerless to reverse, flouting court orders even from the Supreme Court — and I spoke out, because I know how the damn poem ends.

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

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

On this day, April 14, 2025, the President of the United States openly defied the Supreme Court’s unanimous opinion of April 10, 2025, ordering him to “facilitate Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador

I don’t think a better headline could have been written about what happened yesterday. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

There we go. Support this man.

@muellershewrote.com did you know about this? Bukele is cozy with MS13 (shocked not shocked)

The Case Zablocki Act literally requires the text of any agreements the executive branch enters into with foreign states to be PUBLISHED ON THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE WEBSITE within 120 days of going into effect (thanks, @bcfinucane.bsky.social for the reference!) www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

Art of the Deal!

As many as 8 in 10 married women have changed their surname & no longer have birth certificates or passports to match their current legal name. The SAVE Act will strip these women of voting rights. In Virginia alone 1.8 million. In 50 States??? Tell your Senators. Oppose SAVE Act now: bit.ly/4hZ7BK7

Not too long ago they also made the vast majority of our antibiotics. Terrifyingly stupid of demented Orange Julius Caesar

he picked the wrong enemy here. he can’t bully china into submission — they have the upper hand.

What if there was an opposition party that just said "If you give us a majority in congress we'll remove these freaks and criminals from power"

"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...

Congress has the power to stop this economic chaos right now. Here’s the plan to end Trump’s game of red-light, green-light with worldwide tariffs:

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night. So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

Couldn't be more obvious!

Make Habeas Corpus Real: You Have Garcia’s Body, President Bukele. Now Bring Him Home, Hopefully Alive and Well.

"The 2024 election wasn’t a restaurant where you could order cheaper eggs but politely ask for the server to hold the fascism. You’re still getting the fascism, and your eggs aren’t just overpriced now, they’re broken and rotten." -- @playtyperguy.com

I agree. In a functioning democracy, we would already be in the midst of an impeachment trial.

In case you're wondering... it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans. And nobody has been fired... Don't stop talking about SignalGate

It’s a good time to cancel your Prime subscription if you haven’t already

So the felon in chief is demanding that Amazon stop selling books that reveal the truth about him. And watch Bezos bend the knee. Amazon will cave. They all will. Whiteness has exposed itself to be hollow and thin skinned. The tyrant will never stop demanding more and more of your soul.

The SAVE Act will go to the U.S. Senate next-make sure you call your Senators and tell them to oppose this bill. Call them daily until it comes up for a vote, if you can! They are trying to suppress the vote of marginalized people!

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

The real question is....when will we hold him accountable???

Not for nothing, but how, exactly, is it legal to send people for *punishment* in a foreign prison (esp with no due process)? Were the funds being used for it appropriated for this purpose? I feel this has just become a thing no one questions

Do any of these apply to you? 🔲 Married 🔲 Divorced 🔲 Adopted 🔲 Elderly 🔲 Disabled 🔲 Active-duty 🔲 Stationed abroad 🔲 First-time voter 🔲 Don't live in a city 🔲 Don't have a passport You should know about the SAVE Act.

@schumer.senate.gov DO NOT vote for cloture on the SAVE Act. Use the damn filibuster and kill that blatant attempt to suppress the vote!
