Romero: When they say “reasonable notice,” it can’t possibly mean handing someone a paper they can’t read, giving them 12 hours, and then shuffling them out of the country to be locked up—potentially for life—in the most dangerous prison in the Western Hemisphere.

ABBY PHILLIP: “Scott, you keep repeating something nobody ever said. No one said Trump can't have an opinion. The Q is, should the fed act based on it? Trump is not an economist. And as far as I can tell, he does not even have a good grasp on how trade works.” 🎯

Hey you know how people made the Tesla brand radioactively toxic and crashed its entire corporate structure? You can do that with authoritarian brutality and with neoliberal oppression and exploitation. You chase these motherfuckers from society until all that’s left is something real and better.

The “but her emails” crowd are now cheering on drunken rapist idiot Pete Hegseth for sending out classified military intel on Signal Chat not once but twice and not just to a reporter but to his wife and brother. He should be in jail, not running the Pentagon.

#ProudBlue #DemVoice1 Tariff negotiation. Below: The Video is a remark from Japan’s opposition lawmaker Shinji Oguma. Trump attended the meeting. He thought Japan was a cakewalk, so it would fold and set an example for other allies. He didn’t get his way.

The Republican Party is being led by a tyrant whose regime is rounding up U.S. residents and throwing them in a foreign prison without due process. And this is the so-called "party of freedom"?

EU Foreign Policy Chief Kaja Kallas: “The EU will never recognize Crimea as Russian. Crimea is Ukraine.” Which kind of puts the mockers on Trump’s capitulation to Putin for their one-sided “peace deal”.

It's funny how when you ask them why they think Pope Francis was "too woke" and request specific examples, they always wound up describing Christ's teachings without a hint of self-awareness.

When I left the Washington Post in 2023, my colleagues and I were worried AI would hoover up our work and enable "zombies" to churn out stories based on our reporting and writing styles. Today WaPo announced a partnership with OpenAI. And here it is: Zombie Gillian Brockell. I DID NOT WRITE THIS.

Donald Trump is against due process even though he has benefited from it more than anyone else. And Donald doesn't just get due process, he get undue process, thanks to a corrupt, partisan Supreme Court.

Trump's EPA just took down its chemical accident tracking tool, weeks after chemical lobbyists demanded the administration shut down the website. The locations of thousands of high-risk chemical plants across the country are now shielded from public view. #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #DemsConnect

Flashback to 2023, when Pete Hegseth emphatically argued that there are “two tiers of justice” and there must be accountability for “handling classified documents flippantly.” Fast forward to 2025, and Hegseth’s hypocrisy is breathtaking in the wake of TWO Signalgate…

Trump's EPA has rolled back regulations governing clean air, water, wildlife, and toxic chemicals. It's estimated that these moves could result in 200,000 premature deaths by 2050. Your Earth Day reminder that Donald Trump is a danger to our planet and our health.
