Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is. Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.

The attorney for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man who was accidentally deported to El Salvador: "There's no reason that this case needed to become a national issue." I beg to differ. While I agree that it's the government's fault, everyone should know what they're doing to this man.

War hero schools a chickenhawk.

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA): "I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"

Never fails

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Oh, how I miss President Obama and competent government. 🇺🇸

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries. They're eventually paid by us at the check out line. And they're regressive — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.

BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump reportedly wants a HUGE military parade thrown in his honor for his birthday this June in Washington D.C. Estimates say it could cost over $90 MILLION DOLLARS. This is absolutely nuts.

"What the U.S. is doing now is not reform. It is rejecting the very system it created." - Singapore's Prime Minister Lawrence Wong (April 8, 2025)

Trump says the US has spent $350 billion in Ukraine, and Europe has done less than us. Is this true? Nope, take a look and be sure to like and subscribe to my new YT channel youtu.be/ZROD0LjN3HU?...

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

A week after my remarks on the Senate floor I am more energized then ever to continue to fight for Americans on Medicaid, Americans worried about Social Security, Americans looking for opportunity in their local economy.

Raskin: The basis for this most destructive trade war in the history of the world is the profound economic research and policy writings of one Ron Vera, a completely fictional economist conjured up by Peter Navarro, a real person who Elon Musk just called a moron

Senator Bernie Sanders on increasing the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $17: "At a time of record-breaking corporate profits, every worker in America should be able to provide for his or her family earning a living wage." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Rand Paul: "I can't support a fallacy that is gonna make us lose our wealth. I have a retirement account too. I want my retirement account to stay there. And I think tariffs is gonna decimate it."

“I choose courage.” Thank you @cohen489.bsky.social

It’s a miracle any non-white, non straight, non-citizen person in America is getting any work done right now— —While the regime is actively trying to purge us from government, workplaces, universities from its websites, and from society in general.

Republicans hate the earth.

Cantwell: "You're telling us in your testimony you want a tariff on semiconductors. I'm saying that the last administration and this organization here passed the CHIPS and Science Act so we could reshore semiconductors. You're not going to win the innovation economy by tariffing semiconductors."

I can only imagine the bailout package they are drawing up for themselves. As the saying goes, privatize the profits, and socialize the losses.

A true leader puts his people before himself. When has Trump EVER done this ? NEVER has Never will.

Something that’ll never fail to bother me about the Supreme Court is that many of the justices proclaim to be faithful keepers of our history but then fail to learn anything meaningful from it. “I’ll talk about the ancient origins of habeas while also destroying its value as an enduring principle.”

Did you not think he was going to attack other countries, target his perceived enemies, abuse civil liberties & minorities, tank our economy and destroy what was left of our dignity & democracy? He’s been waiting 78 years to do this it’s gonna destroy the USA unless we stop him.

What we are witnessing is not just Trump collapsing the economy and global markets, but also massive theft and fraud at a colossal scale.

Day #78 of the ClusterTrump! A picture is worth a thousand words… @trublu268.bsky.social
