Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen. She has been on a govt salary for years. Something aint right

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

Pete Hegseth has one sideburn. did the other one get shaved off as a prank or what?

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

The ICE officers covering their faces feels like a pretty big tell

Where is his tie?

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

Witkoff touching his heart the moment he sees Putin to show admiration and respect is also nauseating. The representative of the most powerful country in the world fawning over a tyrant of an almost broken imperialist nation. That would have tipped the balance of power towards Putin in that meeting.

CLIP: “Plan B is legal—it prevents her from ovulating so she does NOT get pregnant.” As Rep. Jody Barrett (R) opposed Rep. Iris Rudder’s IVF/contraceptives bill he proved he is NOT a doctor, getting a female reproduction lesson from Rep. Terry (R) who IS. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DIXW7LK...

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Back to watching CNBC. "This is not a misprint: Dow futures with an implied drop of -4.5%." Each anchor has the vibe of a guy waking up from a years-long bender on the side of the highway with no phone and an empty bank account. Continues to be better TV than almost any show.

If I felt, this I probably would not have voted to confirm the most notorious antivaxxer in politics to head the HHS

If folks had voted for the Black lady who wanted to tax the rich and give everyone else a tax cut, we wouldn’t be having this problem. This guy nails it. 🔥

60 Minutes found no criminal record for 75% of the Venezuelan migrants the U.S. sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador www.cbsnews.com/news/venezue...

“…the power of people is greater than the people in power.” Senator Corey Booker 4/1/25. Join us on April 5th and exercise your power! www.mobilize.us/indivisiblet...

March saw the third-highest number of layoffs in U.S. history, and 80% of them were caused by DOGE This was before the tariffs It's just...unbelievable

Russia state media pretty happy at least

I know crashing the economy on purpose seems harsh, but it’ll all be worth it when the seventh Little Mermaid is white

There are no tariffs being put on Russia. Hmmm

Trump, Putin, Orban, and Netanyahu. The “Asses of Evil”.

It’s stunning to me that the New York Times did not put the story on the bloodbath at the NIH, CDC, and FDA on its front page this morning.

Bingo

Where did Hegseth get the info he dropped into the Signal chat? Did he copy/paste it from another chat? “The Vice President that I worked for wouldn’t even use AirPods because she understood the national security threat. These people—it’s amateur hour at the OK corral.” @symonedsanders.bsky.social

X is not worth 33 billion. He basically just paid himself $33B from another company, presumably to pay off his debts from the initial buy because he knows he'll never be able to raise the capital from X itself. He is his own ponzi scheme.

Women with no criminal records held "like animals" in U.S.Immigration detention. Feared for their lives Chained for hours on prison bus, no food, water or toilet. Told to urinate on floor. 27 women per cell. Sleeping on concrete floor. www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

We all need to be aware of our rights.

FUN FACT.

Might save a life.

The Trump economy is such a bad deal: Billionaires will get tax breaks. —You get low wages, high prices, no healthcare. —Your kids get no education. —You don’t get clean air, water or food supply. —Your social security will be cut. —You don’t even get national parks. wapo.st/3Db7DAu

Know their 'oranges'

I would think the GOP would LOVE town halls, given their amazing success with the economy, the stable international situation, and how beloved Elon Musk is by the American people. www.politico.com/live-updates...

The deputy speaker of Israel’s parliament and a leading member of Netanyahu’s party calling for the bombing of food stocks in Gaza just a few hours ago. You won’t see this mentioned by any European or American leaders, or by most western media.

"Republican senators had the chance to matter, and they chose not to step up. Instead they are enabling a national tragedy. It’s time for them to be exposed, called out, and defeated." Start now. ICYMI @jilldlawrence.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/start-the-...

JDVance and Trump must have some serious Borscht and vodka breath by now, shilling for Putin. We are now the Axis of Evil S**thole country.

Scientists at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology recently reported the discovery of another bat-borne coronavirus, HKU5-CoV-2, which could spread in a similar way to Covid-19. Here's what to know about new strain. ⤵️

Pay attention make the call, for yourself, older or disabled people. This is wrong so wrong!

This is also what she voted for
