The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he will continue to revoke visas for “people that are supportive of movements that run counter to the foreign policy of the United States.” This is new. And it doesn’t feel like freedom

Hopefully whatever these 4 soldiers were doing before they were killed was not mentioned in a Signal chat. apnews.com/article/lith...

That Kristi Noem video with the detainees is so upsetting and the fact any sizable fraction, let alone a majority, of our society would endorse it is evidence of a deep rot in our entire culture. Like until you answer what fuels the appetite for that kind of thing it will only get worse

Adolescence on Netflix is amazing! Incredible one take filming. A must watch! #adolesence #netflix

No matter how you feel about certain 10 senate dems right now-TABLE IT! goal now to support congressional special and state elections in #FL, #WI. If bring two more dems to house, can be a game changer. #gayvalimont and #joshweil in #FL01 and #FL06. www.mobilize.us?country=US&o... #demcast #bluecrew

No one ever said they were creative.

Key takeaway from DOGE: There’s less government fraud/waste than expected.

That’s u24.gov.ua. Please give anything you can. Let’s show Ukraine that Americans are with them. #ukraine

Sue Leon, immediately. Each & every federal worker needs to sue individually & there are attorneys everywhere that will take contingency fees. Tie that asshole up with 18,000 lawsuits each asking $5 million under tort law.

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

Finally. A major media outlet has finally reported on Trump’s total travel ban for transgender visa applicants seeking the United States. I had to scream for two days to get someone else to report on it. It is NOT just for athletes. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

Tom Homan can’t find enough illegal immigrants to deport because they fabricated the ‘crisis,’ so now he’s just gonna spend all his time attacking AOC.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: I’ll say this again: download all your SF-50s, performance evals, and your eOPF. Now. Print hard copies. And make sure you file an informal grievance with your supervisor within 15 days of any adverse action. Here is a template: www.muellershewrote.com/p/informal-g...

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

What can you do? Don’t give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness. Don’t quit. Dictators want you to give up. Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards. Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies. Resist. Stand with others.

A journalist called Elon out for inventing something about Gaza that led Trump to lie publicly. That should have led to stories about how, in Trump’s presence, Elon admitted he makes shit up and Trump repeats them. For the most part, it didn’t happen: www.emptywheel.net/2025/02/12/t...

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed. Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly. Yet another reason he must be rejected.

Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A minorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

@corybooker.com hello I used to run the Wendy’s Twitter account and I am begging you to let me help you with the dems social media strategy, I will literally do it for free at this point

I’m sad to learn that my law school classmate, Kiah Duggins, died in the DC plane crash last night. Kiah was an exceptionally talented civil rights lawyer and aspiring legal scholar. I hope you’ll read about her work and the causes she cared about, some of which I’ll 🧵 below. What an immense loss

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

Ass up, no lube.

Yeah, how about not dissolving the air safety advisory commission at the FAA. As your team did last week.

The thing is, I feel like if someone truly, accidentally, & unintentionally made a n*zi salute on a national stage, they would be appropriately horrified by it and apologize. And when they don’t ….. it says everything.
