Trump, the so-called dealmaker, now wants to delay Medicare from negotiating drug prices. Eli Lilly charges Americans $1,080 for the diabetes drug Mounjaro when the same drug can be purchased for $200 in Japan and $520 in the U.K. Is this what Trump means by America First?

Just so we’re clear on this. Abrego Garcia is the test to see how far the Administration can go and at what consequence. The U.S is paying El Salvador $6 million to imprison 300 undesirables for a year. Garcia is being used to see what the Administration and foreign governments can get away with.

Republicans have made us feel divided and isolated using tools like gerrymandering. When we realize this division is only on paper in an effort to chew down the majority, then it’s on.

Just so we’re clear, everybody calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist” or a “gang member” are lying, and they know they’re lying, and they repeat it for purposes of confusing people who don’t follow this stuff closely into accepting what was done to him.

"Congratulations to Harvard for refusing to relinquish its constitutional rights to Trump’s authoritarianism. Other universities should follow their lead. And instead of doing pro bono work for Trump, cowardly law firms should be defending those who believe in the rule of law." Bernie Sanders

Exactly. And if he had committed a thousand crimes, it wouldn’t be a heavy lift to prove just one. But DHS and the White House offer nothing but conclusory bullshit.

It’s worse. Now members of the Trump administration are lying and calling him a “terrorist”. His wife needs to sue for defamation.

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process. Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.

They’ll pressure a NATO ally to release a sex trafficker and racketeer but they won’t pressure a tiny dictatorship to return a man it’s holding on our behalf, who they admit they sent there by accident

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

If someone’s going to be kidnapped to a foreign concentration camp & imprisoned for life without appeal or parole, what’s the incentive to cooperate? What’s the incentive not to resist by any means available? Not suggesting anything, just asking for a country.

As health and environmental concerns about PFAs, or “forever chemicals,” mount nationally, states are beginning to legislate against them. Now, the chemical and consumer products industries are mounting a counterattack, deploying lawyers and lobbyists.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Deporting people means a judge signs a final deportation order, and the person is returned to their own country. What we are doing is kidnapping a person off the street and paying for them to be held indefinitely in concentration camps outside US courts' jurisdiction. 100% deliberately extralegal.

Surfed happy today w/ my buddy Marco & a river otter that joined us briefly. A Bald eagle was soaring overhead when I walked my dogs this afternoon. It’s been a good day. I love my job, my family, my town, but it’s hard to love my country right now. Make America Great Again & impeach this assclown.
