Superb interview with Ben Hodges!

"If universities are not willing to stand up for the free speech and academic freedom of their students and faculty, then what, if any, values do they stand for?"

1/ I never took DHS's scary-sounding notice that I had 7 days to leave the country too seriously, because it was obviously some kind of mistake. But what about the people the emails were actually aimed at? Let's talk a bit about immigration "parole" and what Trump is doing here

This is the most articulate, eloquent, moving, and inspiring thing President Donald J. Trump has ever said.

Kennedy visits Navajo Nation... Where they demand that he restore all the Navajo Health programs he cut.... Kennedy said he wasn't aware he had cut the Navajo health programs... abcnews.go.com/Politics/rfk...

“BRING HIM HOME” 🔥

By law, Steve Witkoff should be handcuffed, blindfolded, dragged to Ukraine kicking and screaming, and forced to attend every single one of the funerals from now until the end of this fucking war🤬🖕🏻

In a move straight out of the authoritarian playbook, Trump hands the U.S. military control over federal lands along the southern border. Because nothing says ‘land of the free’ like soldiers detaining migrants on American soil. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

What if I told you that "Alpha male" is made up bullshit?

Seems pretty clear that doge is a total scam

I don’t use the “fascist” term often or really ever, as to preserve its meaning, but what the United States Government is embarking on with the El Salvadoran prison camp is simply that. It’s an affront to the rule of law, the Constitution, and centuries of Anglo-American constitutional development.

Narrator: iPhone production will not be coming to the U.S.

Exiling people beyond the protection of US law without due process is not only unconstitutional, it's a rejection of the entire American revolutionary project. Sending people "beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences" is one of the grievances enumerated in the Declaration of Independence.

It’s the Zero Days that I’m worried about.

Hey Rubio! I’d like to report some anti-Christian bias

Trump is waging war against professionals, intellectuals, scientists, education, writes Franklin Foer. We've seen this movie before - in Mao's China www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Warren: "Congress has a job right now, and that is to step up and take this authority away from Donald Trump."

How about we start treating people like people? Is that too much to ask?

Russia claiming to be the victim again

This is offensive and disgusting. Marco Rubio is worse than a deluded, brainwashed, or true-believer MAGA. He KNOWS better and CHOOSES to abandon moral principles and beliefs. He has adopted the hypocrisy, lying, and amorality of felonious dictator Donald Trump. Rubio embraces it to thrive.

Tell Republicans in Congress: PROTECT MEDICAID, NOT TAX BREAKS FOR BILLIONAIRES!

Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C. We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

A big shout out to Maxwell Frost for joining AOC and Bernie in the fight for our democracy! Thank you sir!

Climate experts expressed shock and dismay at the move. “It would be a bit like unplugging the equipment that monitors the vital signs of a patient that is critically ill,” one said. By @fastlerner.bsky.social

STAND and DEMAND the immediate return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. BRING HIM HOME! Abrego Garcia is a SMART Local 100 first-year apprentice who was working full-time to support his young family — before he was brutally abducted and illegally deported to El Salvador. SMART General President…

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

"The proposal....says it would target 'criminal illegal aliens' and would attempt to avoid legal challenges by designating part of the prison — which has drawn accusations of violence and overcrowding from human rights groups — AS AN AMERICAN TERRITORY." www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

www.tucsonsentinel.com/local/report... Tomorrow Night Along with Senator MARK KELLY, Congressman Greg Stanton, and the AMAZING GABBY GIFFORDS RETHUGLICAN Juan Ciscomoni refuses to hold a TownHall so DEMOCRATS WILL DELIVER This is how it's done

As I’ve said, yes, this was their aim all along. That’s why they didn’t just send these people to Gitmo. This is an attempt to find a step beyond Gitmo where the court says, “Well, our hands are tied.” It’s an awful, lawless gambit that must fail, but that is what they want it to be.

Hope everyone realizes the dangerous precedent this sets. Khalil was abducted from his home & disappeared by the US govt for using his First Amendment rights. Any dissent against the US or Israeli govt will now place Americans in danger. We are all Khalil, whether we realize it yet or not.

New: Trump says he will comply with Supreme Court compelling the govt to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US after he was mistakenly deported to El Salvador — “If the Supreme Court said bring somebody back I would do that. I respect the Supreme Court,” Trump said per pool

Ask yourself why the White House is willing to go to escalate this after a supreme court decision against them. Why are they so scared to bring Mr. Abrego Garcia back? I can think of a number of reasons, and they're all terrible.

After destroying the US economy and carrying out massive insider fraud that has made his collaborators and billionaire sponsors wealthier, the Trump regime has set its eyes on the next crime, robbing Ukraine. Here is Trump's proposed partition of Ukraine vs Ukraine's minerals.

The world wants nothing to do with the USA. Great segment with Stephanie Ruhle. @stephruhle.bsky.social

Ukraine does not owe the United States a single dollar, everything the US provided and has yet to provide is owed to Ukraine. The US is the debtor and nobody should fucking forget that. These aren't donations, they are debts.

And wait until we see, on the other side of the ledger, higher borrowing costs (from decreased demand for Treasury securities) and decreased revenues (from laxer tax enforcement if not also tax cuts).

South Carolina will be decimated by Trump's tariffs. Our farmers depend on trade. Our car manufactures do as well. Trump’s bizarre tariff obsession isn’t some game to be won — it’s a direct threat to South Carolina jobs and our economy.

These goofballs are politicizing the military and firing any female commander who doesn't drink the kool-aid. Shameful behavior. taskandpurpose.com/news/space-f...

Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari said recent market trends show investors are moving away from the U.S. as the safest place to invest.

Remember - Resisitance is NOT futile!

Thanks, Debra, for teaching me how to make your famous matzah ball soup today. To everyone in the Jewish community celebrating: Chag Pesach Sameach.
