Intimidation is key to authoritarian regimes. Their cruelty and inhumanity knows no bounds. Absolutely despicable. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

His vision for America sounds like a place I want to live, raise my family , & help my country be great. It hurts me to say this ,but as a Veteran our current leadership makes me embarrassed to be an American .

NEW: Fox is conceding that Trump’s approval rating is collapsing significantly — having sunk to 45%. “Our new Fox News poll at 100 days job approval compared to other presidents, there you see the president at 44% and you see his first term at 45% at the 100 day mark.” 1/2

Trump’s slapping “Trump 2028” on merch while the economy nosedives, immigration spirals, and his Secretary of Defense is leaking combat ops over unsecure apps like it’s no big deal. He’s not leading—he’s cashing in while everything burns.

I'm so proud of my niece and her former CDC colleagues @firedbutfighting.bsky.social They are sounding the alarm about the impact this is going to have on health, research and science. 🔬 A big thank you to @warnock.senate.gov, who is fighting along with them for our future in public health.

Oh hell yes! @chuck.hubbardforcongress.com is holding town halls — time to unseat Virginia Foxx !! Pass it on 👇🏼 🥳

Literally the only concession Russia has even intimated it might make is to not try to steal any more of Ukraine than they've already stolen, and they haven't even agreed to that. And only a moron would expect them to keep any promises that they do make.

'Victory for the people': Judge blocks parts of Trump's attack on voting rights https://twp.ai/4ilkYv

US judges block aspects of Trump agenda on voting, immigration and DEI in education. Judges issue several rulings to stop Trump administration from enacting several areas of its hardline agenda. #MomSky #Voices4Victory www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth — the star of Signalgate and Signalgate the sequel — has transformed a space behind the Pentagon briefing room to use as a makeup studio, defense officials have confirmed. Scandal-prone Hegseth is preparing for his closeups.

JUST IN: Judge Kollar Kotelly has *blocked* provisions in Trump order seeking to require federal agencies to enforce a citizenship documentation requirement for voter registration. It's the province of Congress, she says, not unilateral action by Trump. ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

Small but fierce #HandsOff Social Security protest outside the Hollywood Social Security Administration Office in Los Angeles today with @civicsundays.bsky.social #HandsOffMySocialSecurity

In March, the Trump administration cut part of a $200 million contract that funds immigration attorneys for unaccompanied children. Nonprofit legal groups are rushing to plug funding gaps. The video below is a simulation (cameras are prohibited in immigration court).

Love this. Not only is the University of Alabama not bending the knee for Trump, they basically said “f*ck off.”

Due process isn't optional in America—it's guaranteed. Donald Trump is not a king—he's a president bound by our Constitution. In America, the government doesn’t get to grab people off the streets, skip the courtroom, and send them straight to a foreign prison.

My mom would have been so incandescently furious if she were alive to see this. Deepest shame on all of these scammers.

We have been begging trump to "stop!" for years now, it's laughable to believe trump thinks for one minute telling putin to stop will make any difference whatsoever. Hi trump-ego, meet putin-ego, have fun screaming until you're both blue in the face. #VladimirSTOP

If Trump’s talking—he’s lying‼️ China’s President Xi is not talking to Trump, and there is no tariff deal. Expecting China to quickly fold was a huge miscalculation by Trump and he’s trying to cover it up. China is in this for the long haul and Trump is negotiating with himself.

Yes. Russia did write this plan. Back in 2015.

District Judge Kollar-Kotelly has blocked portions of Trump’s EO to overhaul elections 🔥🔥🔥🔥 "….And no statutory delegation of authority to the Executive Branch permits the president to short-circuit Congress's deliberative process by executive order." 🔥🔥🔥🔥 #SheShed

Where’s @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social ? Mahmoud Khalil is a legal resident of NY—your constituent. You weren’t part of the delegation that showed up—so what are you doing to make this right and to stop innocent people from being snatched off NY streets w/out due process?

We’re all a little confused, disheartened, and yet… focused. So I recorded a message for all of us: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/a-message-...

RFKjr intends to start a registry to track autistic people. Fuck NO! This is exactly how it started in 1930s Germany.

Breaking: A federal judge mostly overrules the Trump admin's "specious" discovery objections in Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case. Blistering language about their "mischaracterization" of SCOTUS, "arbitrarily cramped reading" of her order, and more. Doc storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: A delegation of four House Democrats has traveled to El Salvador to push for the release of Kilmar Ábrego García. The official trip, including Representatives Yassamin Ansari of Arizona, Maxine Dexter of Oregon, Maxwell Frost of Florida, and Robert Garcia of California, comes after…

The IMF sends a warning siren: the US is careening towards a severe recession, and at this point only Jay Powell and the Fed can save it from serious disaster. www.ft.com/content/d472...

President Trump acknowledges that China has more cards and he capitulates to the Chinese

The standard of proof Sarah Palin’s legal team needed to meet is “actual malice” Which means the New York Times had to either know it printed a lie, or published it with reckless disregard of whether it was untrue The fact that it took a jury only 2 hours to dismiss the case shows how weak it was

After deliberating for two hours, a jury ruled against Sarah Palin on Tuesdayin the retrial of her defamation case against the New York Times – a second defeat in the efforts by the former Republican vice-presidential candidate. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
