El Salvador didn’t allow a U.S. Senator to see inside their mega prison that’s wrongfully housing one of his state’s residents. But they allow lots of influencers to film propaganda videos.

RFK Jr’s comments about autistic people made a lot of folks feel like they had to list their accomplishments. To prove the value of their life. Your value doesn’t depend on being able to meet work requirements or write poetry. It just is. Don’t let these sick men make you question your worth.

A couple thoughts on this: 1. It violates the law. In 1998, Congress explicitly provided that the President could not, directly or indirectly, request that the IRS start or end an audit or other investigation of a taxpayer. www.taxnotes.com/research/fed... 1/

The possibility of abduction by a sovereign and imprisonment abroad is one criterion that separates democracies from dictatorships. The Declaration of Independence called the British king tyrannical for transporting Americans, “beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offenses.”

Counterterrorism Czar: Opposing Trump’s policies is aiding and abetting terrorists — a felony. Your reminder that Hitler’s first concentration camp, Dachau, was built to imprison leaders of political, social, and cultural movements who opposed the Nazis.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Visiting someone in hospice is powerful, and there is good advice for everyday life, too. You work to make someone as comfortable as possible. You are struck by the beauty of the day. You marvel at the power of holding someone's hand. You say "I love you" often. Get to it. Don't wait too long.

Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us. It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin. You must understand what is truly at stake here. All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

So the whole thing about Hegseth , Vance, Rubio, Ratcliffe sharing military secrets on an unsecured group Signal chat is just gone? Like when Trump took a call about North Korea missile strike on a personal cellphone in a crowded public dining space at Mar a Lago?

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots. The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.
