To put a finer point on it. Trump’s contention isn’t just that he can deport people without them appearing before a judge, but that he can render them into a life sentence in a foreign dungeon with no process whatsoever.

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while: t.co/lg46ijHLDF

Hegseth is treating our national security like a joke. His actions are incredibly reckless and endanger the lives of our troops. He must resign now. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/u...

BREAKING: we won! A federal judge has enjoined the administration's shut down of Voice of America Another success for the Constitution and for us @sddaction.bsky.social & our many wonderful partners & clients More details to follow--stay tuned!

In just three months in office, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has produced a run of chaos that is unmatched in the Pentagon's recent history. His inner circle — military veterans who, like him, had little experience running large, complex organizations — is in shambles.

This should be the top story in Axios’s morning read. But it isn’t. It’s the FIFTH top story. @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/04/23/t...

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

“Pete Hegseth was never qualified to be the secretary of defense. Donald Trump should never have nominated him, Hegseth should never have accepted the nomination, and the Senate should never have confirmed him.”

Democratic Rep. Ansari to Ingraham on Abrego Garcia: "We are turning into an authoritarian country, and there are Americans from all across the political spectrum who are concerned about this."

Oh look, Ron DeSantis is totally not corrupt — he just sent $10 MILLION in taxpayer money to his wife’s “charity,” which then “magically” funneled $8.5 MILLION to a PAC backing his crony. Nothing to see here, folks. Just good ol’ wholesome Florida family values. 🙃 #DeSantisScandal

Anyone else who repeatedly and blatantly defied federal court orders would have been held in contempt of court long before now.

If doctors didn’t go to medical school and got all their information from vibes and facebook and practiced vibes based medicine this is what they might sound like

It is mad how quickly progress can be rewound.

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.

Breaking News: A federal jury ruled against Sarah Palin in her yearslong defamation lawsuit against The New York Times.

Today is Day 11. Still no deals.

"Persuade" is CRAZY. Hot take: leave people the FUCK ALONE. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

I miss the days when you could go minutes, hours even, without thinking about what the President was doing.

A federal judge blocked the Trump administration from dismantling Voice of America.

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.

Love Tim Walz.

“I’ve never missed a court appearance. I’ve never missed an appointment with immigration or ICE,” Daboin Rall said. “The truth is: I don’t have any criminal record. I’ve done everything correctly according to the rules of this country.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

The Dow Jones is on pace for its worst April since 1932. Are we feeling great yet?

Keep going everyone 👏

Breaking News: Three federal prosecutors who worked on the criminal corruption case against Mayor Eric Adams said that they would resign rather than admit wrongdoing in refusing to abandon the case, according to an email obtained by The New York Times.

Jake Tapper: "One 60 Minutes source tells me, 'The lawsuit was baseless. Bill Owens wouldn't apologize. He wouldn't bend. He fought for the broadcast and for independent journalism and that cost him his job. It's shameful.'"

Kevin Kiley refuses to talk to his constituents about their health care and social security. Because he WON’T protect it. So, I went to Folsom and talked to them.

The convicted felon who has benefitted from due process his whole life wants to remove due process for everyone else.

"'She’s a very talented scientist with huge potential … the capacity to be the best of the best,' he said..." www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

Dismantling the one U.S. agency focused on older adults, people with disabilities is startlingly inefficient www.statnews.com/2025/04/17/a... via @statnews.com

So He Thinks! He will be proven otherwise!

Dear GOP Senators (-3): We will NOT forget that you happily confirmed a weekend fox entertainment host as Secretary of Defense who CONTINUOUSLY puts our enlisted and officers at risk on a daily basis because he's the most unqualified POS to ever be anywhere near that position. Well done.🖕🤡🖕

ICYMI The propaganda is real and so thick, it’s smothering. Fox showed Putin celebrating Easter in Russia for 30 long minutes.

The House & Senate majorities have immense responsibility for enabling this administration. Every day. Every decision. They permit it. They enable it. They own it.

“It’s not my fault you couldn’t stop me”

A 19-year old U.S. citizen was traveling from Albuquerque to Tucson. He was arrested and detained by ICE for 10 days, before his family showed a judge his identification & he was finally released. news.azpm.org/p/news-artic...

Sounds like Navarro is back in the oval.

Is there a German word for “the inability to mask one’s contempt for terrible people?” As a fellow sufferer, I felt a certain kinship with Pope Francis. RIP.

(Bloomberg) - Insiders including Meta Platforms Inc.’s Mark Zuckerberg, Oracle Corp.’s Safra Catz and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s Jamie Dimon cashed out shares worth billions of dollars before President Donald Trump’s tariff announcements roiled markets. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

DOD Sect Hegseth shared details about strikes in Yemen in yet another Signal chat, this one included his wife. As a licensed attorney, I'd be disbarred if I breached attorney/client privilege & shared confidential client info with my wife, yet Hegseth gets to keep his job? Brilliant "meritocracy."

“The Pentagon is in ‘total chaos’ and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is unlikely to remain in his role.”

This is a Pentagon comms chief (just resigned) telling readers what reporters are telling him about the Pentagon
