A plea. Can we stop declaring this a “constitutional crisis?” It’s bigger. It’s a crisis about fundamental American ideals and structures. “Constitutional crisis” makes it sound like an abstract lawyerly crisis It’s bigger.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

The possibility of abduction by a sovereign and imprisonment abroad is one criterion that separates democracies from dictatorships. The Declaration of Independence called the British king tyrannical for transporting Americans, “beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offenses.”

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Nicole Wallace on Deadline White House shouting “WHERE ARE THEY” about Democratic leadership is ALL of us right now. Whatever you think you’re doing @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov it’s NOT enough. You and your party are failing the American people and failing to meet the moment.

Senator Cory Booker: "The truth is that right now, our nation is in crisis. The President has inflicted harm after harm on Americans’ safety, financial stability, the foundations of our democracy, and any sense of common decency." He's spot on. This administration is a nightmare.

These are not detainments—they are kidnappings. These are not deportations—they are human trafficking. These are not detention centers—they are concentration camps. Language matters. This is fascism.

Democratic Party leaders. We need you to get on TV & social media to detail exactly what you’re doing to get Garcia back from El Salvador. You need to tell the truth about where we are in the authoritarian takeover of the U.S. Stop asking for donations until you show us you’re real leaders.

The Supreme Court owns this, as does every member of Congress. You don’t get cute with law language (SCOTUS) and you can’t abdicate your separate-but-equal branch of government (Congress) without repercussions. In this case, fascism.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens. The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago. Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.
