NEW: @elfaroenglish.bsky.social identified a SECOND man sent to El Salvador and imprisoned who is married to a US citizen. Jesús Ríos entered the US at a port of entry in 2023 seeking asylum. His wife started the green card process in January. Like most sent to CECOT, he has no criminal record.

NEW: The Venezuelan military says it has raised its alert level following the discovery of an alleged U.S. plot to fabricate an incident at an ExxonMobil offshore platform in the contested waters between Venezuela and Guyana to justify an armed conflict.

Deeply concerning: US citizen lawyer getting detained and his phone searched on reentering the U.S. at Customs. www.freep.com/story/news/l...

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Three children and their mother have been released from federal custody after being detained by immigration enforcement agents last month at an upstate New York dairy farm.

#HandsOff Phoenix showed up today 😀

Thank you to all who made it to a 50501 rally/protest today!

I've spent a lot of time debunking claims that way overstate the migration impacts of wealth taxes. But fear not - if we put our minds to it, I do believe we can design a wealth tax high enough to get Elon to flee the country

Remind me who is treating us badly

New in PN: All the laws flouted during SignalGate "There’s no excuse they can come up with that will be believable, bc the truth is obvious — they recklessly defied numerous laws by discussing war plans in a Signal group. And once they got caught, they made things even worse by incessantly lying."

Happening now outside John Cochran VA Medical Center in St. Louis! We aren’t letting them quietly destroy the VA! @votevets.org

Trump is STILL - RIGHT NOW - tweeting about Tesla. He's spent more time protecting the richest man in the world's profits than he has protecting healthcare, education, jobs, or veterans in the last 6 weeks as president.

Americans: We’d like to afford basic necessities, keep vital programs, and not lose our retirement savings. Trump: Best I can do is a car commercial for the richest man on Earth.

@danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co: "Any Senator who votes for the GOP partisan 'funding' bill is voting to give Elon Musk the power to gut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. This is not about funding the government: Sen. Patty Murray and Rep. Rosa DeLauro have a one-month clean CR to keep the gov open."

I’m interested in talking to anyone who may have been at Elon Musk’s birthday party in June 2017. Hit me up on Signal at davetroy.69. Thanks.

More efficiency from Musk

Criminalizing protest is a hallmark of authoritarian regimes

Corporate media refuses to note this but under Biden the Dow Jones closed just a few months ago over 45,000. Under Trump the Dow is now down to 43,100. The NASDAQ was 20,100. Today it's at 18,300. Trump's chaos and his new tariffs are causing investors to flee. And market heading lower today.

Alaska lawmakers advance resolution defending Canada and opposing trade restrictions, reports Yereth Rosen, @yjrosen.bsky.social of @alaskabeacon.com: alaskabeacon.com/briefs/alask... #akleg

Anchorage officially went to 0" snow depth today. Here are all of the March 3rd snow depths for Anchorage since 1916. Note: there are 13 missing years. Of the 97 years with data, only 6 were snow free on March 3rd (0" or Trace). @alaskawx.bsky.social

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Hey Washingtonians, has your personal and/or work life been affected by the Trump Administration? #washingtonstate #seattle #kingcounty #whatcom #skagit #sanjuan #snohomish

Yep, but too many of you were willing to look over this, in hope of cheaper eggs. When someone shows you their true colors, pay attention.

Trump White House staffers were seen loading around 15 boxes of documents onto the rear of Air Force One.   Team Trump says the boxes contain the classified documents the FBI seized  from Trump's Florida home in 2022.

“European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said: ‘Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.’”

I stand with President Zelensky. Fuck Donald Trump and fuck JP Mandel.

Zelensky found out what it was like to be a US governor in a blue state asking Trump for medical supplies during the pandemic. Or disaster relief after a wildfire or storm. It’s not his money, but he fully expects you to beg and plead for it and tell him how wonderful he is.

Zelenskyy thanking all of the world leaders who support for Ukraine is an epic troll on JD Vance and Donald Trump. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This guy is a lunatic. Like an actual psycho Christian Nationalist who states that witches have taken over NAS Coronado. www.wusa9.com/article/news...

A federal judge said on Friday that it seemed “factually inaccurate” for the Trump administration to keep insisting that Elon Musk has no formal position in an operation that has led to mass firings of federal workers and the hobbling of the nation’s foreign aid agency.

If the market continues to trend down, and the Atlanta Fed turns out to be right, the midterms will be very interesting. The battle between republican self preservation and MAGA will be intense

The firings at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration are “going to affect safety of flight, safety of shipping, safety of everyday Americans,” Admiral Tim Gallaudet, who was acting NOAA chief during the first Trump term, told the AP. “Lives are at risk for sure.”
