Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

If torching a Swastikar is considered terrorism now, surely torching Josh Shapiro’s home will be considered the same.

Requiring REAL IDs and passports and birth certificates to vote?!? Imagine if these were required to buy a gun.

Trump’s tariffs are hitting farmers hard — in ways you might not expect. This honey farmer voted for Trump 3X — now costs are through the roof, hiring’s frozen, and he’s lost $150K in government contracts. Asked if he regrets his 2024 vote? “Perhaps I should’ve considered other options.” NO SHIT!

Remember Fiona Hill? She’s now sounding the alarm again: “We’re definitely on a path toward full-on state repression. There’s no question about it. I’ve thought about this for an extraordinarily long time.” When Fiona speaks, we should all listen.

Will U.S. Attorney General Bondi announce an investigation and threaten the perpetrator with 20+ years in prison, or is a Democratic governor's occupied residence with children inside less compelling a violation than a couple of really ugly Cybertrucks and/or Tesla dealerships? And on Palm Sunday ..

PA Governor Josh Shapiro's home was attacked by arsonist on the 1st night of Passover. Did you know there were over 10,000 reported incidents of antisemitism in the US last year? Even words have consequences. They create an environment where this can happen. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory...

‘Fawning’ is a response where a person gives a servile display of exaggerated flattery in order to gain favor or advantage. AKA: ass-kisser, bootlicker, toady, suck-up brown-noser, etc.

Just think about what this authoritarian coward is saying. He’s saying he has the power to deport people without any due process, but when it comes to bringing back the ones who were mistakenly deported, he says he’s utterly powerless. The courts must slap him hard.👇

I've got a GREAT IDEA, Elon! How about you go first! And I bet your eventual goal is to FORCE people to put screws in smartphones and work in coal mines WHETHER THEY WISH TO OR NOT. Please, people, realize we are in the early scenes of a 'Hunger Games' prequel!

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

@thomasmarkfanpage.bsky.social I know who you're trying to steal glory from. Thomas Mark Harmon, popularly known as Mark Harmon, previously of NCIS. He fits the description in your profile. You're just really pathetic, & sad. I'm blocking you and encouraging anyone with a brain to do the same. Bye.

@thomasmarkfanpage.bsky.social Are you the actual person, Thomas Mark (whom I've never heard of in any of the fields stated), or does the 'fan page' part of your name mean that you're just trying to steal some reflected glow of his fame & notoriety?

Sanders: When Trump looks out at this crowd… they pay attention to this stuff, Elon Musk does. You are scaring the hell out of them. Because they know what we know: They are the 1% and we are the 99%

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

There’s a special place in HELL for anyone who stands before the Supreme Court and argues that a man they wrongfully sent to an El Salvadorian death camp should stay there.
