Congress literally created an Alien Terrorist Removal Court for the expeditious removal of aliens who are designated as terrorists, under a preponderance of evidence standard. I think problem isn’t the time it would take, but the fact that the government would have to produce actual evidence

Call your reps and tell them to shut down Trump's proposal here. If he destroys the USPS, he destroys the business of every independent comics creator you love - every independent store, every crowdfunder. All to shovel our money into the maws of billionaires. NO. Find your reps here: reps.fyi

On ABC, @vanhollen.senate.gov responds to @gavinnewsom.bsky.social's dismissal of the Abrego Garcia case as a GOP "distraction." "Americans are tired" of pols who "put their finger to the wind ... Anyone that's not prepared to defend the constitutional rights of one man... doesn't deserve to lead."

I spent this week in isolation with covid. It is not fun having covid. It is still very much out there. I'm fine now, but I recommend doing what you can to protect yourselves.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This expresses it well. Willful defiance of a court order is, by definition, not an official act. Pass it on.

This is disrespectful and a flat out lie that further stigmatizes autism. It’s not a virus or a disease - it’s a neurological condition with a wide spectrum. Many Americans with autism work, pay taxes, and are living happy and healthy lives.

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it. Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids. Don’t let this go!!!

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Last night at the Governor’s Residence, we experienced an attack not just on our family, but on the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This kind of violence has become far too common in our society, and it has to stop.

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

Because of her roles in the Thin Man movies, many called Myrna Loy "the perfect wife." She said, "Some perfect wife I am. I've been married four times, divorced four times, have no children, and can't boil an egg."

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.
