A second German tourist is being held in a detention centre after having her Visa revoked by the U.S. It’s the same detention centre holding Jessica Brösche, the German tattoo artist who spent 8 days in solitary. She’s been held for 6 weeks. The U.S. is not a safe place to travel anymore

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.

We've confirmed the US Bureau of Prisons has transferred trans women to men's prisons despite three court rulings blocking Trump's executive order “I’m continuing to be punished for existing. I'm a pawn in others' political games" -Whitney, 31-year-old woman taken to men's prison this week, told us

A lot of people are going to die from this

🚨 The Trump-Musk DOGE purge just made our food supply less safe. An Air Force Veteran and a top scientist were fired without cause—despite their work protecting America's food system. 10,000+ federal workers gone. This isn’t policy. It’s reckless. MORE: thepublicsradio.org/npr/a-milita...

Anyone remotely surprised by the US vote in the UN regarding Ukraine today needs to read this. This is what's going on. america2.news/donald-trump...

Germany regects neo-Nazism. America? Not so much.

📄 NEW: "A Constructive Approach to the American Meltdown" We're past the point of warning about impending authoritarianism — it's here. As we cross the event horizon into becoming a failed state, a new kind of citizenship is required. My latest. america2.news/a-constructi...

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

It matters that scientists speak out against what is being done to US science. Staying silent is neither "objective" nor "staying out of politics". Silence now *is* political - it supports the status quo, says "nothing to worry about". We need to sound the alarm. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

This on-the-fly policy making from the US administration is clearly so poorly thought out and will end up costing lives.

@juliusgoat.bsky.social

67 fake bomb threats on Election Day 2024. Almost all of them targeting heavily Democratic cities — which had lower turnout than in 2020. Many of the threats were clearly traced to Russia. And the mainstream media and establishment have somehow COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN.

The Washington Post refers to “a clash between the White House and the AP” when in fact it’s the White House unilaterally punishing a news outlet for using a historical place name that would-be dictator Trump doesn’t like. “Clash,” my ass. It’s a fascist attack on the free press.

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

We are actually living in a time where some Christians see mercy as offensive, empathy as a sin, and diversity, equity, and inclusion as a threat. “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness.” -Isaiah 5:20 Lord, have mercy.

Rupert Murdoch is 93 years old. A withered husk clinging to the belly of this nation land the world like a tapeworm that’s been feeding off its host for decades. And just like a parasite, he never kills outright, he weakens, he drains, he infects.

Hmmm 🤔

We're living George Orwell's 1984: IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.

Real question: Why fire prosecutors on US v. Haniyeh against Hamas leaders? Some uncomfortable information they might have found?

When do we see the JFK files?

What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

hey quick question does Goliath win in that story

Spread the word

How Could It Happen? #ABlueView🧵1/3 History has some ideas ...

🧵 Trump’s Financial Coup & the Coming Election Crisis Trump is rebuilding the U.S. government in real-time to lock in permanent GOP rule. With DOGE controlling all federal payments and pardoned extremists threatening violence, elections will be manipulated at the source. It’s already beginning. ⬇️

A whole lot of people think government access of sensitive data is made legal by tweet and I’m here to tell you that it is not

The administration has lived in the FoxNews bubble for so long they’ve forgotten that just saying something doesn’t make it true… youtube.com/shorts/FBmaW...

I’ll never get over that all of this was avoidable and our kids could’ve had a better future had voters just made the obviously rational choice in November. It’s water under the bridge now. But what the fuck, people.

Heads up! The @aclu.org Immigrant Rights Project has an EXCELLENT online resource available in multiple languages to walk immigrants or advocates through various scenarios of encounters with immigration officials or police. It includes contact #s for local ACLU offices. www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

Trump’s gag order halts CDC publication. Remember the Medieval times before the age of rationalism when the serfs served their overlords and died of preventable disease? That’s where we headed. And the price of eggs has gone UP. I live in a nation of FOOLS. www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdi...

You guys need to see this and take it in… Wise words from someone who is a target. And he’s been listening.

Back to checking Plane Finder every time a plane flies by, just like during his first term.

15 years of Citizens United have shown us that money corrupts politics. We are going to have to take back our democracy from the forces of greed! #StopTheOligarchy

Making america great again!

"Buried deep within Project 2025 — the Heritage Foundation’s 900-page blueprint for how the new conservative administration can slide the government into an authoritarian regime — is a cursory section suggesting reforms for a relatively new, little-known federal agency."
