This thread by @djrothkopf.bsky.social articulates the root of my complete disgust with many, many, many people. To do the things he lists requires a total lack of morality. This is what happens when organized religion becomes money laundering politics & politics replaces faith & community.

He was appointed on purpose to speed the destruction of America. His area of sabotage is spreading disease to weaken the population, and wreck medical and public health research and action.

This government is not legitimate.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

BREAKING: Famed Economist Paul Krugman just told Ari Melber: "This Tariff pause is [still] a tariff rate that is higher overall than Smooth-Hawley. This is a bigger shock to the economy than any trade policy in any country’s history."

the transfer to El Salvador of US deportees is, per Pres Bukele, a straight up contract that has “nothing to do w/foreign policy.” The fees we are paying makes their entire prison system “sustainable.” Don’t see how US can make argument that bringing A-G back is some sensitive foreign policy matter

Voting is NOT broken, but will be if SAVE ACT “fixes” are allowed to go into effect. The last line of defense against voter suppression is the U.S. Senate. Call your Senator now (202) 224-3121 or send a message. Tell your Senators to oppose the SAVE Act. Fast form here> bit.ly/4hZ7BK7

This right here 🔥 “If there was market manipulation, it is a crime. Someone needs to go to jail… I want the documents. I want the Signal chats too, because I don’t trust them — that they weren’t sharing all this information across their Signal chats.” – @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

Today in 1955: The polio vaccine, developed by Dr. Jonas Salk, was declared safe and effective. It has saved an estimated 18 million lives worldwide since its introduction.

When Rubio announced the agreement with El Salvador in February he touted it as a way to outsourcing the federal prison system by allowing the US to send American citizen inmates there to serve their . This undercuts the Trump administration’s claim to the courts that it can’t get people back.

DEMOCRATIC ELECTEDS: You need to be holding hearings like Raskin/Schiff did but on the bloodbaths at Social Security and IRS. DOGE can now pocket everyone's personal information. IRS is being set up to make billionaire taxes optional; no more phone support # at SSA. HOLD THE HEARINGS.

Listen, we know who he is. But line up what he says, with the word salad out of the orange make-up guy. Which country would you invest in as Trump dumps democracy, the last remaining advantage we had. The lack of confidence in the US dollar isn’t just about the tariffs. www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/b...

This how health insurers screw everyone for profit. Republicans will cut off sick people before they even lift a finger to investigate the real fraud in our healthcare system.

All this vile bullshit and trash because yall wouldn't vote for a Black woman.

Here's the reality: they've backed themselves into a corner. If they bring him home there will be hell to pay. It's clear that they believe that the lesser hell is not bringing him home. So we need to make that hell the worse hell. Start calling and screaming at all of your representatives now! 1/2

To Karen Berrios, her mother is a hard-working, devoted single parent. To DHS, she’s “an associate of the vicious MS-13 gang.” However, nearly two weeks after Elsy Berrios was taken into ICE custody, DHS has yet to disclose any evidence to substantiate its claim against the Salvadoran woman.

When Trump changed sides in Russia’s war against Ukraine, Republicans acted as if nothing had changed. It takes a special talent to betray an entire worldview without missing a beat:

Sunday, an all-new edition of 60 Minutes ⏱️

The Trump administration is illegally declaring immigrants dead so they can’t pay taxes:

77 million people voted for deregulation (Trump). Did they know they were also voting for pollution, cancer, and climate chaos loved ones and future generations? We can now be poisoned on purpose—without a check.

faced with a profoundly unjust decision against him, Mahmoud Khalil chooses to show incredible solidarity

To those who think most people didn’t vote for this…your memory is short. In order for slavery to be legal and in their minds, morally defensible, millions of Americans supported slavery. This kind do unimaginable cruelty (for many of us) is something deeply baked into generations of Americans.

One of the most important things you will read. @jamellebouie.net speaks the truth and shines a mirror on the generations of corruption of the soul.

The FBI has placed an analyst on leave whose name was on a list of "Deep State actors" in a book written by FBI Director Kash Patel, people familiar with the matter tell NBC News.
