I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

Churches/Pastors, If you won’t speak up on behalf of the least of these, if you aren’t willing to leverage your pulpits in the cause of the imprisoned—just what in the hot-and-humid hell are you opening your doors for? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-your-ch...

Legal permanent resident of the U.S., showing up to apply for citizenship, with no allegations of criminal activity, is arrested and detained by masked police. This is fascism, and that is not a word I use lightly. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/n...

Four R senators and four R House members could announce they're caucusing with the Dems for now, and will vote for Schumer for Majority Leader and Jeffries for Speaker, because the threat to the rule of law is dire. Meanwhile, they'll work with Democrats to construct guardrails against dictatorship.

Exclusive: Days before masked ICE agents detained Tufts University student Rumeysa Ozturk to deport her, the State Department determined that the Trump administration had not produced any evidence showing that she engaged in antisemitic activities.

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

BREAKING - Supreme Court rules AGAINST Trump SCOTUS orders that government facilitate the return of Kilman Armando Abrego Garcia -- deported to El Salvador on an "administrative error" Now the question is whether the govt will follow SCOTUS's order -- or will Trump defy it?

On April 9, 1865, Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to Gen. Ulysses S. Grant at the Appomattox Court House in Virginia. This historic moment marked the closing of the Civil War to end slavery. 133 Days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Just to note, there is no way in hell that Kimbal would have tweeted this without running it by Elon. Forget about being siblings, as a Tesla board member it’s simply not something he would do without checking first. And as we know, Elon is against these tariffs due to Tesla.
