Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Hey, do you know what you call a guy who never admits a mistake, who becomes President of the United States by never admitting a mistake, who then convinces his entire presidential administration to never admit—let alone correct—any mistake, leading to innocents getting life sentences? A sociopath.

Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us. It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin. You must understand what is truly at stake here. All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

Either the courts get to decide who is a “violent criminal” or “gang member”, or Donald Trump gets to decide. That choice determines whether we are a Republic governed by laws or an autocracy living under a ruler.

Exactly this.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

Everyone has their own priorities and no one can possibly attend to or care about every fire this regime sets. But ppl being disappeared without due process and sent to a foreign prison should fully panic everyone body and soul and I need more folks with bigger voices to start screaming about it

Everyone should watch and listen to Senator Booker.

Did you change your name when you got married? If you do not have a valid passport, you will not be able to prove that you are a citizen according the the SAVE Act which just passed the U.S. House. Call your Senator NOW to demand they block passage of this Act! www.lwv.org/take-action/...

They’re filling the pool with cement, because they don’t want to coexist. IYKYK

In the car, Ain’t No Mountain High Enough started playing. Always makes me happy no matter what’s going on.💙

Bribe for hire Pam Bondi has officially restored violent convicted domestic abuser Mel Gibson’s gun rights after being taken away from him in 2011. I’ll say it again, Pam Bondi isn’t an Attorney General, she’s a criminal hired to help criminals.

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

Plainclothes agents. Trying to question elementary-aged kids. And lying that they had parents permission to do so.

“They were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness…and let other people clean up the mess they had made…” -- F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby (April 10, 1925).

You’d think when you’re claiming the richest country in the world can’t afford childhood cancer research you might wait a year before throwing yourself a 100 million dollar birthday parade. But carpe diem, suckers.

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