I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Who is going to do something? This is Kim Jong-Un shit.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

The U.S. Department of Education has announced a freeze on $2.2 billion in multi-year grants to Harvard University, in response to Harvard president Alan Garber announcing it will not accept the administration's proposed policy changes. www.harvard.edu/president/ne...

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

To all those cattle producing red states:

The Monarch #butterfly embarks on one of nature's most incredible journeys, migrating up to 3,000 miles from #Canada to central #Mexico. These tiny travelers, with wings of vibrant orange, navigate the vast distances using the sun and Earth’s magnetic fields, defying the odds

Trump is doing this right now btw

I haven’t fallen asleep yet. I have a kid at MIZZOU. This is what it’s like living in a state where the supermajority GOP cowers to the gun lobby rather than listening to their constituents. They’re severely underestimating how low a tired, infuriated mom can go. #MoLeg @momsdemand.bsky.social

My congressman,Sam Graves, hasn’t had a townhall since 2012. We are having them in his absence.

No notes needed. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Next protest April 19th 👇👇👇👇👇

Must’ve cost big bucks to pay millions of people in 1,100 cities.

True âś…

He’s skipping funerals for soldiers to golf with the Saudis.

Swalwell: This is what kicking the shit out of fascism looks like

Very accurate...

Dow Down 2200+ Points Fox:

I am obsessed with the penguin Gadsden flag

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

🤣

I think “liberal” just means “democratic” now.

What if you’re so outrageously incompetent you get it done in a matter of minutes?

Trumpers are the ones standing on the deck of the Titanic, wondering why no one is thanking them for all the free ice.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

Not even the penguins are spared.

Sen. Cory Booker @booker.senate.gov filibustering for the American people until he physically can't anymore.

Baby mama drama continues for the DOGE man.

“Beautiful thing to watch.”

I will post this every day to remind us. She was always right.

This is the result of decades of civic poisoning by Fox News and right-wing echo chambers and channels.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public
