ICE has essentially kidnapped a fulbright scholar. the administration is out of control, malicious, using terror to silence speakers & blare, 'you are not welcome here.' hardly anything more 'unamerican' than this.

If you're scooping up students off the street for writing op-eds, you're secret police, and should be treated accordingly.

There's a very obvious reason why Whiskey Pete Hegset refuses to apologize for putting service members at risk bc he's incompetent. His ENTIRE CLAIM to authority is that white Christian men are competent, and women and Black men and trans people are not.

THIS. 53 people died, in a country that has been enduring a shattering proxy war for years, where not a single powerful actor has any regard for the actual lives of the Yemeni people.

Disability is not a moral failing. It’s not a punishment. It’s simply part of being human. If you live long enough, you will likely experience some kind of disability. It’s one of the only minority groups you can join at any time. Stop treating us as less than & help us combat ableism!

It’s very discouraging to watch our country slowly re-learn the lessons that led to the end of segregation, among them that people who think they’re racially superior are nearly universally incompetent fools unable to face up to their own deficiencies and putting them in charge is suicide

WOW: @miamiherald.com reveals that a person imprisoned in El Salvador had LEGAL REFUGEE STATUS. He entered the USA legally in January and was detained because of his tattoos, EVEN THOUGH he had previously passed a full background check. Without warning, he was sent to El Salvador on March 15.

I'm absolutely stunned by the staggering incompetence and jaw-dropping recklessness revealed in this reporting. If these reports are true, the Administration may have violated the Espionage Act and federal records laws. At the very least, they’ve made a mockery of operational security protocols.

We built a map at the Associated Press showing how around 60 sabotage incidents across Europe were blamed on Russia by officials since the Ukraine invasion in 2022. Officials say Russia is carrying out hybrid war against the West. Ping me if there is an incident to add. apnews.com/article/russ...

To give a sense of how much money this is: according to CBO in 2023, non-defense discretionary spending was $917B. So the cost of running the entire federal govt, aside from SocSec, Medicare, Medicaid & defense was $917B. And in six weeks DOGE lit $500B on fire.

Trump called for taking over D.C. and clearing homeless encampments due to crime, but in an op-ed @eduardorferrer.bsky.social says the city is the safest it's been in decades. Keeping it that way, he adds, requires community-centered solutions, not punitive policies. 51st.news/opinion-trum...

In these United States, we routinely deny people health care and/or put them into debt, and now we're rolling out debt peonage for FOOD. How many ancient societies provided rations? Yet many think that we're more advanced?! (BTW, disabled folk use these apps, as well as those in food deserts.)
