So Trump wants to start shipping “homegrown criminals” to El Salvador? This is fine—if the first person sent is Donald Trump. See the newest cartoon from @deadder.bsky.social:

2 SCOTUS cases threaten to undermine Brown v Board & our public schools. This is part of the extremist effort to destroy public ed. We will continue to fight in the courts, the court of public opinion & in our communities for hi quality & inclusive public education. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

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 some next level audacity to respond to federal judges the way this cabal of lawyers representing Trump/the Trump Administration has done. But I have YET to see the kind of judicial bench-slap that's frankly needed to put them in their place...

The Trump admin has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying “anti-Christian bias” as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new EO on supporting employees of Christian faith working in the federal government. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

🇨🇳❗️🇺🇦 Zelensky: Our military captured two Chinese citizens who fought in the Russian army in the Donetsk region. We have information that there are significantly more Chinese citizens in the units of the occupier than two.

Penguins hit back! They impose a 75% tariff on any fish caught in the ocean.

Welcome to the dumbest administration

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody. She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care. This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.

I kind of want to go

🚨 FRENCH PRESIDENT MACRON CALLS FOR PAUSE ON FUTURE AND RECENT INVESTMENTS IN THE UNITED STATES (audio translation)

Oh.

You can totally see how this mf bankrupted a casino.

"Black people have always been this nation’s Avengers. Cory Booker gave it a go as Captain America for a day." Booker's powerful act was more than political theater; it was patriotism in action. @carronjphillips.bsky.social explains

‘I expected to lose’ He’s so predictably pathetic and insecure.

My advice is if your law firm can't say this, get yourself a new law firm. "Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

The Trump Administration admits to an “oversight” in the deportation to the mega-prison in El Salvador an immigrant who has PROTECTED LEGAL STATUS since 2019… But now claims: “Oops, we can’t bring him back.”

Breaking: Cory Booker has officially delivered the longest Senate floor speech in US history, surpassing Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against the Civil Rights Act.

Was able to speak for a while this morning as @booker.senate.gov enters Hour 13 of holding the Senate floor. With two glasses of water and sheer determination, he’s telling the world that America is fighting back against this President. Go Cory!

Keep going Cory.

Way too many people at the gym today. It stinks in here

Kamala Harris, September 2024: “What Goldman Sachs has said is that Donald Trump’s economic would make the economy worse.” Yesterday: Goldman Sachs raised recession probability to 35%. Kamala warned us. She was right.

Oh look, another Russian mouthpiece in the White House. Nothing to worry about here, folks.

“America is spinning quickly in the direction of Hungarian populism, Hungarian politics, and Hungarian justice. But that means Hungarian stagnation, Hungarian corruption, and Hungarian poverty lie in our future too,” @anneapplebaum.bsky.social warns. theatln.tc/yK2nzSbM

In a new executive order, Trump directed J.D. Vance to remove improper ideology from various museums, education centers, and the zoo. Vance is now going to patrol to ensure the zoos are sufficiently anti-woke.
