Today, the SPLC celebrates a victory for the people and communities of #Alabama as a court ruling affirms that people experiencing homelessness can no longer be criminalized when asking for vital help. Read our statement: www.splcenter.org/pr...

Transgender youth have been the target of sustained fearmongering, disinformation and legislative discrimination for the last decade. Gender-affirming care is life-saving care. 🏳️‍⚧️ #LGBTQRights #TransRights #ProtectTransKids

The Vice President wants us to believe this administration is unable to negotiate with El Salvador. The “art of the deal” man can’t even strike a deal with El Salvador? Is that what they’re saying? No. That’s ridiculous.

Keep on rocking in the free world. ✌️ m.neilyoungarchives.com/news/4/artic...

On Lawfare Daily, @nkorpett.bsky.social talked with Jonathan Lowy (@actiononguns.bsky.social) and @chantalflores.bsky.social about a case brought by Mexico that seeks to hold U.S. gun manufacturers accountable for cartels' use of American weapons. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/lawf...

ICYMI: Yesterday, we announced our members' endorsement of @bradlander.bsky.social as our No. 1 choice for NYC mayor followed by @adrienne4thepeople.bsky.social and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, urging voters to rank all three while leaving Cuomo off their ballots entirely.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

Good morning 🌞

Last one for Tax Day – NOAA 🌊 The average U.S. taxpayer contributes $21/year to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. 💡 NOAA turns science into safety — for coasts, communities, & the climate. It helps safeguard lives, property, and ecosystems from rising seas and extreme weather.

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!" I'd like to invite you to go fuck yourself.

NEWS: Hong Kong has suspended postal service for all goods being sent to the United States, saying the U.S is "unreasonable, bullying, and imposing tariffs abusively."

THIS IS WHERE TRUMP WANTS TO SEND DISSIDENTS youtu.be/4rrVznR2oV4?...

Corpus Christi, Texas Saturday, April 19

This is in fact what we have done. Foolish, shortsighted, appalling.

The Trump administration plans a $2.1 billion slush fund for their political priorities at the expense of Congressionally-directed programs. 🧵1

If Grok says so.

"A livable wage is defined as the minimum income necessary for a worker to meet their basic needs. A 2024 report from @ccpanovascotia.bsky.social estimated the livable wage on P.E.I. to be $22.76 an hour — well above the coming increase." #canlab www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

HURRY, HURRY, @gavinquantrill3.bsky.social --HERE'S A JOB! YOU CAN MAKE UP FOR TRUMP KILLING YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO! 😆

DOGE keeps cutting agencies and funding and personnel, but no one I know has saved a dime on taxes. It’s almost like they are stripping the public good of resources to send that money to the oligarchs in tax cuts…

YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP

Today is Tax Day, a chance to remind you that despite repeated assurances by leaders that there is simply no money to Save RIPTA, there are plenty of untapped resources in the pockets of the wealthy, and it is time for them to pay their fair share!

You heard it here, white sauce pasta summer

Doge terrorists strike again. #UnionsFight #UnionStrong

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

Republicans are trying to steal an election in North Carolina. They have been laying the groundwork for five months, and unless the federal courts intervene, they just might succeed. If they do, it could usher in a new era of election subversion in future contests across the country.

Cohen: Take MeidasTouch Network. They’re beating Joe Rogan, they’re beating Fox, they’re beating the lame stream news. So when there’s a march, all you have to do is contact the Meiselas brothers — next thing you know, you’ve got ten million people showing up. That’s an army.

Wow! HHS is hitting new levels of recklessness and incompetence… U.S. citizens are being threatened with deportation by Homeland Security. Nicole Micheroni isn’t just a citizen—she’s an immigration attorney. And she got a notice to leave the country within 7 days.

If Karoline Leavitt or anyone in this administration has receipts showing that Mr. Garcia is a member of MS-13, or engaged in human trafficking, they’d be presenting them in a power point presentation every single day.

Here is Senator Rubio (2017) calling on the Chinese government to provide due process protections to prisoners and calling on the U.S. not to send anyone there unless China proves is it abiding by int'l human rights law - standards Secretary Rubio is helping the US and El Salvador violate today.

Vote wisely Canada. Pierre Poilievre has some real awful friends. EGAD!

What you're seeing are wet microbursts—intense downdrafts from thunderstorms that slam rain into the ground, creating those stunning lobes. Like a reverse explosion from the sky. Captured in Perth, #Australia

Is their any doubt that our president serves the interests of Vladimir Putin?

HAPPENING NOW: At the federal courthouse in Greenbelt, Maryland, Judge Paula Xinis is set to begin a hearing on the government’s efforts – or lack thereof – to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident who was wrongly removed to El Salvador. Follow along for updates ⬇️
