DEVELOPING: There is chatter coming out of the White House that as early as next week Donald Trump may issue as many as 5 Executive Orders targeting US-based nonprofits and civil society organizations.

A video showed a doctor with measles treating kids. RFK Jr later praised him as an ‘extraordinary’ healer. My @apnews.com story with comment from @unbiasedscipod.bsky.social @craigspencer.bsky.social @pauloffit.bsky.social -->

A recent letter from acting US Attorney Ed Martin to former Mueller prosecutor Aaron Zelinsky lifts language directly from a 2020 Just the News article, without attribution, while accusing Zelinsky of wrongdoing in the prosecution of George Papadopoulos. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Scam economy

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

van hollen’s gambit in el salvador worked in part because it wasn’t a stunt to run for president

The good news is that standing up to Trump is something the Democratic base will reward you for. WHICH IS WHY ITS BAFFLING MORE DEMOCRATS ARENT DOING IT

Did Ashley St Clair give him his stage name?

Today @vanhollen.senate.gov was denied entry to the same prison.

I so appreciated this opportunity to talk about the mayor’s race and the fight ahead. Thank you, @playtyperguy.com

I hit the mean streets of the Upper East Side with @dreamfornyc.bsky.social to see how voters in Cuomo Country really feel about Trump, Musk, harassing women (allegedly), and how many politicians it takes to fail New York's public schools.

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

CHEAP THRILLS: An EV for $17,000 that's stuffed with tech and good to drive? What's not to love? And @wired.com did indeed love it. No small wonder then that this is the most popular EV in Japan. Interested? There is, of course, a catch. Read the full review here: www.wired.com/review/revie...

An important piece to read in @lawfare.bsky.social ahead of the 4 p.m. hearing in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia: @rparloff.bsky.social examines the Trump administration's dubious claim that Abrego Garcia is a "verified" member of a violent gang, MS-13. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/abre...

It was never about …. www.thehandbasket.co/p/it-was-nev...

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family. I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.

Siena Research poll: Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic Socialist, leading in the Dem primary for NYC mayor among ages 18-49 — and only 5 points behind Andrew Cuomo in Brooklyn. ⬇️

we can’t believe we have to say this, but New Yorkers deserve a mayor who governs by and for the *people* not ChatGPT

This is all because Maine wouldn’t remove two trans student athletes from their teams. Two in the entire state.

Last night at about 2AM, my family and I woke up to bangs on the door from the Pennsylvania State Police after an arsonist set fire to the Governor’s Residence in Harrisburg.

Nothing to worry about, just a shadowy group of mercenaries pitching a dangerous authoritarian regime to build massive for-profit gulags abroad. What could go wrong? www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

I have seen a lot of detainees say a lot of things to a lot of immigration judges, but never anything as selfless as this. "I hope the urgency you deemed fit for me is afforded to the hundreds of others who have been here without hearing for months."

Families who entered the US legally through the Biden-era CPB One app are being told by CPB to self-deport. This is a letter from the Denver Public Schools trying to connect affected families to resources.

Suozzi on DOGE: "They're cutting and doing some things that I think are very irresponsible. And I don't think it's smart for us to further empower that effort ... they're gonna keep on cutting more people. That's what their plan is. And they're gonna end up paying a price for it."

New - Albanian opposition leader Sali Berisha is banned from traveling to the US. But Chris LaCivita, Trump pollster Tony Fabrizio, longtime Manafort associate Phil Griffin, and CPAC all appear to be helping his political ambitions anyway.

Feel like this story didn't enough attention -- US attorney Ed Martin was just at a fundraiser with Oath Keepers who were convicted of seditious conspiracy and did NOT receive pardons. They're currently appealing their convictions with Ed's office!

this is so fucking embarrassing.

Democrats ask what happened to NYU Langone's $3B plan at NCC The plan, now on "pause," was to bring a teaching hospital to the Nassau Community College campus. www.newsday.com/long-island/...

FFS, can we please ban helicopter tours in NYC.

Cannot emphasize enough: Stop using swastikas for anti-Tesla/Musk actions. You’re giving the state exactly what they want, which is to throw the book at you by prosecuting you with hate crime-enhanced charges *simply for the use of a swastika in conjunction with your activity.* Stop it!
