Anybody else find it interesting that Trump invited himself and Melania to the Pope's funeral--before any details of this event were finalized?

It gives me solace knowing that Pope Francis's last public words were unmistakable and clear: we must care for the poor; we must care for the migrant; we must stand with the victims of violence; we must free political prisoners; we must make an end to war and oppression and end hatred.

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless

Constitutional scholar types: I’m sure you remember on West Wing the discussion about census polling and how the wording of the “4/5ths rule“ is arcane. Isn’t there a similar argument to be made about the Alien Enemies Act of 1798? If it is not arcane, is it not being twisted beyond recognition?

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Sen. Chris Van Hollen said he spoke with the American embassy in El Salvador today and they said that they’d never been told to in any way facilitate the court ordered return of Mr Abrego. That sure sounds like evidence of criminal contempt to me.

Folks who are citizens of other countries and are considering travel to the United States for a vacation or work or whatever: I strongly advise against it. You will not have protection from the illegal actions of this administration. It's not worth it. Don't roll the dice by traveling here.

According to 60 Minutes research, 90% of people sent to brutal El Salvadoran prison have NO criminal record. This is deeply upsetting. They sent another plane full yesterday. Bombard the WH with calls (202) 456-7041. And your Reps. 1 202 224 3121 Everyone deserves a hearing. That is the law.

What if, purely hypothetically, Stephen Miller was the guy who ordered flights to go even in spite of Boasberg's order on March 15. What if, also hypothetically, not all the people on the third plane had deportation orders? Does Abrego Garcia even? What if there are 50 more like him?

This is horrifying and should, in any reasonable world, lead to immediate impeachment. On a hot mic, before the media arrived, starting around 7:15 on the time index, Trump tells Bukele he is going to start sending "homegrown criminals" to El Salvadoran gulags. This is fascism.

Let me say this again: If a president can illegally deport someone, conspire with that country’s leader to abandon them to human rights abuses, and face no consequences, we are in a hellish authoritarian moment. What a fucking evil, illiberal government this is.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring all removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

I don’t art direct comics or graphic novels so I never work with coloring artists but I'm working on a new illustrated chapter book where we'd be repackaging existing grayscale finished art and need to colorize it. If you’re a colorist, please share samples and a link to your folio. No DMs pls. 💙❤️
