Trump and Bukele claim they can't release anyone from CECOT BUT THEY ALREADY HAVE: at least 9 detainees El Salvador released back to the US in the last 3 months NINE other people freed. Why not Abrego Garcia, who's there on an "administrative error"? DEMAND HIS FREEDOM NOW

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC. Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

The GOP is AFRAID OF WOMEN VOTERS that they're trying to pass the SAVE Act, a bill that would limit access to the polls & disenfranchise millions of Americans. What are they hiding from? The fact that their policies are unpopular & their actions are undemocratic? #HandsOffHerVote

“This does not just affect North Carolina,” Riggs said. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy. Today’s decision was deeply misinformed.”

Supporters of Trump, who uses nicknames to insult his enemies, want Jasmine Crockett censured for calling Greg Abbott, "Hot Wheels." It takes a special kind of hypocrite to treat others like crap & then play the victim when they're treated the same way. #ProudBlue #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice
