Sanders: A woman is walking down the street, a car stops, and these guys — in plain clothes and masks — grab her, throw her into the car, and take off. That happened in Vermont today. That’s the kind of thing that happens in dictatorships, not in a democracy.

The judicial branch was over the minute they coup’d the son of an ex president into power. That was over 25 years ago.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov

More. Of. This.

"Take him anyway" confirms to me what many of us have suspected: that there's a quota now, and ICE just needs bodies to meet that quota, like cops prowling to give tickets before their numbers are due.

"You don't deserve due process if you're a criminal" has got to be among the least "American" arguments the government has put forward in a century

I am sorry to say it, but this is probably one of the most important things you can repost today.

There we go.

what i think of when you say all-female space crew

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

Harvard has a $53b endowment. It’s the only university on the list I made recently of the top 500 “wealthiest” organizations compared to nations Good. If they don’t have the $ to survive this, nobody does

The illegal deportation and imprisonment of a person named Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a test. @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social

Seriously, @pablo.show is fantastic here. Come on, MSNBC, your viewers need three hours of Morning Pablo. Make the switch.

Yeah, but he said it on camera into a live microphone. As long as Trump brags about his crimes openly, the media pretends there's nothing wrong. There's only something wrong when a politician covers it up, see.

60 Minutes Interview: “I believe, sadly, Russian narratives are prevailing in the U.S.,” Zelenskyy said.”

I think this one will be remembered as a particularly stark and, well, historic day in American history.

Grabbed at his appointment to become a citizen. Is this who we are? 😕🇺🇸

THIS is un-American— and illegal. There’s no reason to believe these folks would be afforded due process before being deported to El Salvador anymore than undocumented immigrants have been. 📌 Trump just proposed deporting US citizens, who have been convicted of certain crimes.

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process. Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.

Yes, we're in constitutional crisis. Right now.

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov THIS IS FUCKING INHUMANE!!! HE WAS AT HIS FUCKING NATURALIZATION CEREMONY FO FUCK SAKE!!

This is wild. Everyone gets paid the same. What a foreign idea

I will say this - EVERYONE with power seems to be desperately hoping that unpopularity does the work that consequences need to do

BREAKING: The United Mineworkers and United Steelworkers unions are suing the Trump admin over its decision to delay enforcement of a lifesaving new silica rule meant to curb the black lung epidemic in Appalachia. My exclusive for @inthesetimesmag.bsky.social: inthesetimes.com/article/trum...

The metaphor department is working too hard
