Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

trump 2.0 has: - measles running rampant - planes falling out of the sky - FEMA not responding to disasters - citizens being snatched off the streets - Americans paying more because of tariffs. But hey, at least you got to make trans people uncomfortable. Fucking jackasses.

#ProudBlue Stephen Miller is trying to get rid of Habeas Corpus which a power of Congress (constitution.congress.gov/browse/artic...). The president can only suspend the writ after Congress has passed legislation allowing it. The WH is making threats upon the courts if they don't fall in line.

Warnock: Georgia officials said they were sorry but their hands were tied, you can’t vote the first weekend of the runoff after the holiday so I decided to untie them, I sued them. And I won… They appealed asking for emergency relief. Emergency relief from what? People voting?

It can never be forgotten that one of the first social media campaigns Russia ran in the US was promoting anti-vax sentiment. Why? For it would cause Americans to die and rip apart our social fabric.

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

BREAKING: AOC sends a message to Tom Homan at her town hall in Jackson Heights: “Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I'm using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections. To that I say: Come for me. Do I look like I care?”

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

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.

And to accelerate the deporatations, they create a 30-day deadline. Failing to meet the deadline will be labeled a crime and subject to arrest and permanent banishment from the country. I totally don't recognize the country I fought for and served for twenty-four years.

So Mom and I went to vote today. We have always voted early at the head office and there is usually none that we had to wait. But today hundreds were lined up to vote. It actually looked like the election day. Everyone was so polite and openly talked about who they were voting for. 🇨🇦 #CanadaSky

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?
