“If we normalize this, there’s no end.” This is what @schumer.senate.gov said he was waiting for. Defying court orders. We are there. Now what?

Grabbed at his appointment to become a citizen. Is this who we are? 😕🇺🇸

Palestinian Columbia University student detained by ICE during citizenship ceremony - https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/palestinian-student-columbia-university-student-detained-ice-citizenship

NO ONE should be sent to El Salvador, you baby-brained losers. My God.

Salvadoran authorities are wrongfully imprisoning an innocent man who was wrongfully arrested and deported by US federal authorities without due process. The US Supreme Court has ordered his return to the U.S. to no avail. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT OK.

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

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.

YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY! IT'S WORKING! Keep boycotting!

Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

An Israeli attack has left al-Ahli Arab Hospital, the last functioning hospital in north Gaza, nonoperational, forcing critically ill patients onto the streets. Here’s a list of major Israeli attacks on Gaza's healthcare system since October 2023 aje.io/10seah

Then that’s human trafficking.

you'll never be rid of him

I said it before and I’ll say it again: Target not only turned its back on diversity it spit in our faces. My wife and I haven’t been back since January — and we won’t be. We take our money where people like us are seen, valued, and respected. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏻

UPDATE: ICE deleted their openly fascist post about stopping “ideas” from coming into 🇺🇸 www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

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

Mike Johnson just voted to cut Medicaid. Nearly 40% of his district relies on Medicaid.

If the US government requires passports for you to practice your rights such as voting then passports should be provided for free to all and within a reasonable timeframe by said government.

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

fell for it again award

why is *every* newspaper/programme running with the headline "tariffs are paused" when they haven't been. What's happened is that every country (except China) gets a flat rate of 10% for 90 days.

Cult of personality watch. These are not the habits of a democratic movement.

The White House. The actual White House. This is the attitude of every abuser, who is now fearful of the consequences of their abuse.

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

An actual opposition party would be all over TV for the next 10 days reminding people of this tariff bullshit, letting people know that Congress has the power to end this, and getting to work on doing just that. Instead all that exists is the Democratic party so none of this will happen.

An American citizen, an attorney for a protestor, detained at the airport on his way back from the airport - phone searched. What stage of authoritarianism is this? 🇺🇸 www.freep.com/story/news/l...

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Trump has announced his new plan for autogenocide, he will now proceed to make medication far more expensive, which will lead to millions of deaths. "We're gonna tariff our pharmaceuticals ... we're going to be announcing very shortly a major tariff on pharmaceuticals." #3E
