America has never been more divided in my lifetime. I’m for the side that believes in the rule of law, science, reproductive rights, free & fair elections, secure war plans, not tanking the economy or illegally deporting American citizens. I can’t believe there’s a side that doesn’t.

What is happening right now — and adding the bond market crash to the list of issues — is solely a creation of the President of the United States and everyone who enabled him in this foolish endeavor.

If the agent of an embittered KGB officer somehow won the US presidency and entered into the office bent on destroying the USA in its national influence, network of alliances, and the American people’s quality of life, what would he be doing differently?

The IRS agreed to share legally protected taxpayer information with DHS and ICE. Federal law clearly protects taxpayer privacy. This agreement is illegal. This is an assault on every single taxpayer's rights and will destroy lives.

FFS can we stop calling them "Tariffs on China" or "China tariffs"? Call them "tariffs on Americans" because that's what they effectively are. If an American parent orders a $300 stroller from China, they will have to pay a customs duty of $312, costing the parent $612. China still gets the $300.

Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.

If due process is denied for anyone, it can be denied for you too. If anyone can be snatched off the streets, detained, and deported without due process, it can happen to you too. We demand due process is upheld for every single person.

John Roberts has clearly been struggling for years between two paths: one based in reason and a consistent judicial philosophy and one primed toward pandering to the Trump wing of the GOP. It's pretty clear at this point which path he's taken.

Here’s the real reason why DOGE is gutting the IRS. (Hint: it has nothing to do with “efficiency.”)

ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them. DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it. Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them. Pam Bondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it.

SCOTUS seems to think it's ok for the admin, without due process, to use a wartime law during a time when we are not at war, intended to target enemy aliens when in fact those targeted are not enemies. And the remedy for abuse of the law enables the govt to venue shop where challenges will be heard.

In 1930, 6 months after the Smoot-Hawley tariffs were enacted by President Hoover, world trade decreased by SIXTY PERCENT (60%). Because of policies like the Smoot-Hawley tariffs contributing to the Great Depression in the 1930's, Hoover is considered one of our WORST president's. Sound familiar?

An innocent man was sent to an El Salvadorian prison and the Supreme Court just decided not to bring him back. The rot in this country, in our politics & courts is so much deeper than one man. Do not let their lack of humanity corrode your own. The real question is what are we willing to sacrifice?

So the orange village idiot, is spending $120,000,000 on a military parade for his birthday. In true dictator style. A military parade for a man who called military dead, ‘suckers and losers’. Who doesn’t want injured vets near him, because they make HIM look bad. Fuck no.

They are snatching people off the street and sending them away to brutal prisons in foreign lands with zero due process - and they won't even bring them back when they realize a mistake was made. That's frightening stuff for any American who actually loves their country. #StopTrumpsTerror

Kidnapping people to the 5th Circuit to circumvent ordinary judicial process is abhorrent to the rule of law, but fine with five justices of the United States Supreme Court.

DOGE Oversight Subcommittee held a hearing on reducing federal property. All they said was “fire sale” this, “fire sale” that. Meanwhile, they’re lighting all of this s**t on fire — while their incompetent leader wastes millions of taxpayer dollars golfing, all while steering us towards a recession.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Just got a text from a manager that works for a large retail chain that you know. She said that they have orders from corporate to load new pricing to all products ASAP. Virtually every product in the entire store is going up in response to the tariffs and they have to retag 120k+ items in a week.
