3 dead so far at Krome ICE detention center in Florida. Max capacity was 500, they have over 4,000 and not enough water and food. Reports say they get 1 cup of water per day. These are already death camps. eu.usatoday.com/story/news/n... english.elpais.com/usa/2025-04-...

Louder for the people in the back: If only citizens get due process, NOBODY gets due process. Because then all they have to say is that you’re not a citizen, and you have no right to due process to prove them wrong — even if it’s a lie.

I had to do another fact check about this post by Brian Tyler because it’s so outrageous. There is truly an upset in Kansas, and yes, it COULD still happen but here’s information from an article from 2023. This needs updating. #Voices4Victory #SheShed kansasreflector.com/2023/04/09/k...

They’ll do it in a few high profile cases to set examples. People will say, “No way this holds up in court.” Maybe. But we now know the plan: they’ll do it first, then dare the courts to stop them. And this too will be very difficult for courts to undo. This is end of democracy stuff.

And it moves the Overton window either way. Once the outrage turns to us sending US citizens to Salvadoran gulags, no one has the energy to fight the undocumented immigrants or visa holders being sent there anymore, with or without criminal records or due process

Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.

This is happening in spite of the fact that the president is not in charge of the Smithsonian. It's not an executive branch government agency, rather it's chartered by Congress and under a board of regents created by statute, none of whom are even appointed by the president.

This one is gonna stick with Whitmer her whole career because it reveals a deep truth that Americans already feel about their leaders. Americans think their leaders operate behind closed doors, refute the truth, and betray their most basic values to advance some aspect of their personal ambition.

The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.” That is dangerously false. www.medscape.com/viewarticle/...

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

This breaks me — because I can see my wife and daughter living through this. I don’t trust DHS, and you shouldn’t either because it could happen to anyone. They’re on a mission, and it feels lawless as hell.
