BREAKING: ICE and private prison contractor GEO Group are refusing to allow Mahmoud Khalil to hold his newborn son for the first time, even after his wife flew them over 1,000 miles to visit. We just asked a federal court to order ICE to grant Mahmoud's request for a contact visit with his family.

Trump Hammers South African President Over Alleged Attacks On White Farmers https://twp.ai/4imp6L

Protesters go after ICE in Arizona 🧵

Crockett: Right now, it seems like you don’t care about the constitution unless it’s the second amendment and that’s misinterpreted as well. There’s other amendments.. And we don’t get to just change it because our fearless leader says that he doesn’t like it

Who the fuck just starts shooting into a car because they're in front of your house?

Palantir Insider Trading Alert 🚨 Heather Planishek, Palantir's former Chief Accounting Officer, just bought $1.1 million worth of $PLTR shares! This is the first insider buy for Palantir in history!!!!!!!!

Spot on from @q4nwspunk.bsky.social

Just hit me that the importing of white folks from South Africa and exporting of brown people is actually, literally an attempt at a great replacement

If Barack Obama had appeared in a photo like this, Republicans would have impeached him and then someone would have assassinated him.

We didn’t forget about journalist Jamal Khashoggi, did we? Murdered inside a Saudi consulate. Dismembered. Then a full-on coverup, sanctioned at the highest levels.

Yes, I'm pissed about the jumbo jet too. But this is actually the most important story today.

I checked. It’s real.

Damn Right it is.... We the People.. 👍

“I think this says that they will not tolerate us being active participants in our democracy—they want an autocracy,” Emily Feiner told Mother Jones. Meet the 64-year-old retired social worker who went viral after being forcibly removed from her representative's town hall.

A former assistant admissions director at Emmanuel College in Boston was arrested Friday and accused of soliciting an underage applicant for sex, the Justice Department said.

we need to talk about the pathological culture of hate that millions of americans raise their children in

And there you have it.

This tweet from Pee-Wee German has proved HILARIOUS.

Dear media, It's trafficking The word you're looking for is trafficking Coupled with kidnapping The only thing he's deporting is a fuckton of American embarrassment to every country in the world. STOP calling them deportations. That is a legal term. It's not even close to what he's actually doing

Crimes against humanity! I am sickened to my core! This must be stopped!

What are we doing here, you guys?

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

The media doesn't want you to see that it's not a jail, it's slavery.

No script. No filter. Just me and Jimmy Kimmel keeping it all the way real. Tune in tonight! #Kimmel

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

Kevin Kiley refuses to talk to his constituents about their health care and social security. Because he WON’T protect it. So, I went to Folsom and talked to them.

🇪🇺 The EU has fined Apple €500 million and Meta €200 million for violating tough new antitrust rules, - Bloomberg ❗️The fines are relatively modest compared to previous sanctions and may signal an attempt to avoid conflict with Trump, who has threatened trade sanctions in response to EU regulations.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

If you ever get invited to meet them, RUN

Russian attack on Zaporizhzhia this morning. A residential building again. By preliminary information, there are injured people.

Everyone who served in the military knew a lieutenant like Hegseth. We just never imagined that we would ever have a president who would make one of those dipshits Sec of Defense because he liked his rap on TV.

I have seen a few questions regarding Democracy Docket: 1. It does not sell subscriber or member information or email addresses. 2. It is not part of Substack or ActBlue. It is fearlessly independent, unapologetically pro-democracy. Subscribe now. newsletters.democracydocket.com

Russian drone attack on Kharkiv just now ‼️ turn your sound on to watch

😔 Kharkiv in smoke…

Let’s hope Noem’s purse did not contain her cell phone with any active Signal chats www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

Kharkiv 🙏

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

This is despicable. ICE is out of control.

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts. From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

Just another reason for Canadians to boycott American Produce, Meats, Milk, Fish, and Goods. It won’t be safe to eat. BUY CANADIAN ONLY!

On June 6 veterans will march in DC to demonstrate that our oaths to the Constitution still hold. This is not partisan; it’s about service, particularly the essential work of veterans in the government and those who care for them. Unite4veterans.org www.military.com/daily-news/2...

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This is some sick shit
