American workers need to shut down the economy and force a Constitutional Convention. We need to implement stronger checks and balances, get rid of Citizens United and the electoral college in order to preserve our democracy.

How are we safer under Trump again?

Reupping this piece I wrote a couple of weeks ago about what happens when a judge makes a contempt finding & refers it to fed’l prosecutors, but they decline to prosecute the case. joycevance.substack.com/p/contempt-b11

How fucked up is it the legendary Canadian-American musician who wrote "Rocking in the Free World" has to legitimately worry that he'll be denied re-entry to America for criticizing Donald Trump. VERY

We must BAN congressional stock trading.

Now if it were a Tesla dealership...

JUST IN: Judge finds 'probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations

We the people know that Trump would not be president right now if we had a real functioning democracy. This point is not lost on us. Karma is coming.

I’M GOING TO KEEP POSTING THIS STORY UNTIL ANDRY IS FREED: Gay Venezuelan makeup artist sent to Salvadoran prison after a disgraced cop's report Andry Hernandez Romero sought shelter in the U.S. because he was persecuted as a gay man, one of the "particular social groups" allowed to claim asylum.

Got a new one today when the press secretary accused him of being a "human trafficker" just absolutely out of thin air!

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

Well played.

Damn right!

Pam Bondi sounds like Parker Posey’s character in White Lotus.

The administration that called Canada “the 51st state” and said “we’re going to get” Greenland is suddenly cowed by sovereignty.

Trump is talking about shuttering publications and networks he disagrees with. He's talking about deporting and imprisoning Americans who dissent. This is unprecedented and undemocratic. Wake up America.

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

#PowerToThePeople TAKE THE STREETS TO STOP THEM. 3.5% OF THE POPULATION NEED TO #PROTEST FOR THREE FULL DAYS TO SUCCEED. IF WE STAY IN THE STREETS WITH A EUROPEAN STYLE, PROLONGED GENERAL WORK STRIKE, WE, THE PEOPLE WIN! #FuckTrump #TakeBackYourPower #UsAgainstThem #TaxTheRich

Agreed! 😂😂

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.

Everything is breathtakingly stupid

So, if I understand correctly, the President of the United States is saying that the Supreme Court of the United States consists of nine “sick people,” including three whom he appointed. apple.news/AMHDqIFcpRxi...

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

What a contrast between how our allies get treated versus little dictators like Bukele. Not a word about him not wearing a suit either, as he petitions the US to expand his country’s mercenary penal colony by sending him more money.

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.

This is the dollar since “liberation day”

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

China really upping their trolling game since the tariffs.

In my experience, classified doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t have to tell the judge, unless you want to concede the case.

If the president can spend a quarter of his days in office golfing, corporations can give workers a four-day work week.

The U.S. is the only major country on Earth that does not guarantee workers a paid vacation. When a husband, wife & kids are unable to spend any time together on vacation, that is not a family value. It's an attack on everything a family is supposed to stand for. Unacceptable.

The things we love about our country are disappearing before our very eyes.
