Judge Sweeney becomes the first non-D.C. judge to rule that the Alien Enemies Act is likely not applicable to Tren de Aragua, and rules that the Trump administration may not apply it to anyone in Colorado without 21 days notice and opportunity to file a lawsuit.

With the Trump administration having terminated multiple contracts providing lawyers to unaccompanied migrant children, we're back to the bad old days of toddlers representing themselves against deportation.

Stock market is tanking. Dollar is down. Immigrants being abducted. People being stripped of healthcare. Oligarchs bribing Trump. Tariffs costing Americans jobs and money. Fox News:

For me, it's the "clearly is BS" that sends it.

Uh... fuck absolutely everything about this? www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-...

Congress literally created an Alien Terrorist Removal Court for the expeditious removal of aliens who are designated as terrorists, under a preponderance of evidence standard. I think problem isn’t the time it would take, but the fact that the government would have to produce actual evidence

Hard not to be inspired by the protests this weekend: Next One is May 1st.

Casar: "This message of saying we've gotta break the unholy alliance between corporate greed and corrupt government -- I used it on Fox News live the other weekend. I can use it in rural Texas, suburban Texas, urban Texas, or suburban Colorado. It works."

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

I just spoke with Homeland Security to get more information and I will share when I learn more. The University of Minnesota is an international destination for education and research. We have any number of students studying here with visas, and we need answers. www.startribune.com/u-graduate-s...

BREAKING NEWS: Democratic Marine and Navy Veteran JoAnna Mendoza announces she’s running to flip Arizona’s 6th Congressional district from Red to Blue. And the best part? She can win. Blast this to space and watch her video so can take over this pivotal seat!

Elon Musk said he would give $1 million checks to Wisconsin voters. Then he deleted the post.

No joke. On Tuesday, Trump issued an extraordinary Executive Order that would give “the DOGE Administrator,” that is, Elon Musk, access to the voter files of every state for the purpose of purging millions of Americans from voter rolls as suspected “non-citizens.” open.substack.com/pub/gregpala...

Welp. It happened. Our NIH training grant was terminated on Friday. Just highlighting this incredibly derisive language used in our termination notice. To focus on the positives, see some of the great things our undergraduates have done over the last couple of years: web.uri.edu/esteemed/

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I'm running for Congress.

WOAH! Happening today - a federal judge ordered the Trump regime into court later today for a hearing on deporting Venezuelans despite his order. He then denied a request by the DOJ to cancel the hearing. The DOJ then filed papers saying there was no need for them to appear in court 1/2

Nearly 13 million people in the U.S. hold green cards.  Tens of thousands more are here temporarily as foreign students and professors.  All are now in danger of being arrested by the Trump regime if they exercise their First Amendment rights.

The pretense of knowledge is our most dangerous vice, because it prevents us from getting any better.

The good life is simple, the Stoics say. It’s quiet, defined by ataraxia or stillness. It shouldn’t require fancy things or high honors. It’s internal, we find it within ourselves, Marcus Aurelius said, not in far flung destinations or accomplishments.

Lololol @samseder.bsky.social has to very slowly explain to this dude that government agencies don't pay taxes lolol

Evil.

If you don’t need to drive anywhere or eat food or live in a house you’ll be totally fine though

What’s interesting about the Oval Office fiasco is that it was Trump who repeatedly claimed during the campaign that he would end the war in ‘24 hours’ and that he was a master negotiator. Did the guy sulking, then berating Zelensky, then kicking him out, look or sound like a master negotiator?

I TRULY LOVE AND RESPECT @ericswalwell.bsky.social Congressman Eric Swalwell tonight Message to Little Marco Rubio "Bro, did you write this?" "Don't bullshit us. Grow a pair "

Powerful.
