@ossoff.bsky.social You voted for the Riley act. That makes you deportable homegrown! substack.com/@aaronrupar/...

Some major public institutions in Canada, including a pension management firm and a leading hospital, are advising staff against traveling to the US.

In #Okinawa, coastal fishermen now farm #coral, restoring #reefs like planting trees in a forest. With #ocean temperatures rising, half the world’s coral reefs have already vanished. These farmers are fighting back, one fragment at a time. [Heppoko Taylor]

He wants you to be scared. It's what he does when he is scared.

Extremely packed stadium in deep-red Idaho for AOC and Bernie Sanders' Fighting Oligarchy rally!

Good for Harvard

@mrjamesob.bsky.social

Sanders: A woman is walking down the street, a car stops, and these guys — in plain clothes and masks — grab her, throw her into the car, and take off. That happened in Vermont today. That’s the kind of thing that happens in dictatorships, not in a democracy.

Correct.

“The UK is prepared to retain some regulatory alignment with the European Union and accept supervision of the bloc's court over a deal to cut checks on imports of foods and agricultural products” Good. Our future is with Europe 👏 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

It is essential for the rule of law that everyone involved in this end up in prison. Nothing else is a sufficient deterrent against the intentional, repeated abuse of government power to systematically deny fundamental rights.

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of NC Alliance for Retired Americans and VoteVets AF, my firm has filed an appeal to the Fourth Circuit to block the Republicans' efforts to steal a North Carolina state Supreme Court election. Follow Democracy Docket for full details. www.democracydocket.com/cases/north-...

It is legally impossible to deport citizens. This is not deportation. Removing citizens to foreign prisons, knowing to a certainty that they will be subjected to treatment that violates the U.S. constitution, doesn’t deserve any label that connotes legal legitimacy.

Wouldn't it be nice if every news outlet that covered the Bukele Oval Office meeting noted: District court wrote: Abrego Garcia "has never been charged with or convicted of any crime."⤵️ Fourth Circuit: The government presented "NO EVIDENCE" of MS-13 affiliation. Abandoned argument before court. ⤵️

I’ve just posted this video message to members of the DC Bar, urging them to vote *AGAINST* AG Pam Bondi’s brother to be its next president. Please pass this on to anyone who is eligible to vote. www.instagram.com/reel/DIcQFxt...

HE IS PROMISING TO SEND AMERICANS TO FOREIGN DEATH CAMPS. This is it. This is where America ends.

#MartialLaw is the next step in #trump’s dictator tour. He’s talking about sending American Citizens to that El Salvador (who are under #MartialLaw) prison. That can only happen if he declares #MartialLaw which takes out the courts & any semblance of #DueProcess … we are headed towards civil war 🤦🏻‍♂️🙏🏼

UPDATE: El Salvador’s brutal far-right dictator, Trump and Musk friend Nayib Bukele, has confirmed that he will never return any person sent to him from America. And Trump has confirmed he wants American citizens sent to El Salvador to die in a foreign gulag. This is a five-alarm fire for democracy.

@markruffalo.bsky.social @maxboot.bsky.social

I can’t believe he’s not wearing a tie. Outrageous display of disrespect.

Deporting America citizens to a foreign gulag seems…dictatory.

“We’ve never gone through anything like this, but this is what I do want to say. Despair is not an option. Giving up and hiding under the covers is not acceptable. The stakes are just too high.” Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

I wonder how the Supreme Court feels about granting Donald Trump immunity for official acts now that one of those official acts is telling the Supreme Court to shove their ruling and fuck the fuck off.

Even a 10% tariff levy is still one of the largest tax hikes since World War II. It will lead to higher prices and slower growth, and poorer Americans will disproportionately pay for it. The United States will suffer more from the ensuing trade war than any other major economy, other than Mexico.

This is a pretty extraordinary thing -- not sure I've seen or heard of anything like this before. It's tomorrow/Tuesday morning -- noon eastern, 9am pacific: speakupforjustice.law

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

@maxboot.bsky.social

Good! Now for other colleges and universities, as well as law firms, to follow suit. When you stand up to a bully, the bully backs down. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #FuckTrump #TrumpIsACriminal www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

There’s been no doubt where this was headed. Trump repeatedly said he intended to send Americans to foreign prisons. Justice Sotomayor got that. The conservatives on the Court have no excuse, but they acted like they expected Trump to fall in line & obey, when all evidence was to the contrary.

I have lived through unstable economic and political times before. Tariffs and isolationism are breeding grounds for fascism. We are at strong risk of repeating history.

What if there was an opposition party that just said "If you give us a majority in congress we'll remove these freaks and criminals from power"

There we go. Support this man.

@klobuchar.senate.gov

I blame Chief Justice Roberts. He clearly has no idea who he is dealing with in Trump. He is allowing Alito and Thomas to frog-march America into full-blown fascism. The April 10 SCOTUS order was an abomination—and I and many others _instantly_ saw (and said) that it would lead us where we are now.
