Hadn’t known about (or had known and forgotten about) the Nazi’s mass deportation of Polish Jews in 1938. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1938_ex...

Donold is deporting innocent people to foreign prisons. It is time for God to unleash the 7 plagues again. Thou shalt let My people go.

If Jeff Bezos can send Katy Perry into space, he can pay a wealth tax so every American has debt-free healthcare.

As Colorado's representatives in Congress, we urge you to oppose Congressionally-proposed cuts to Medicaid funding that would throw hundreds of thousands of Coloradans off their health insurance and increase costs. You can read the entire letter at ow.ly/9ySi50VzVav

"Do you know one thing I never did to cope or in response to my autism? Repeatedly fire off a Nazi Roman salute." An incredible piece from The Big Picture that doesn’t hold back.

In fairness, China's pronouncers of state propaganda have a much better game then America's.

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?

So, if I understand correctly, the President of the United States is saying that the Supreme Court of the United States consists of nine “sick people,” including three whom he appointed. apple.news/AMHDqIFcpRxi...

Oh look. Another bribery and extortion scheme.

Stephen Miller claims on Fox News that returning the Maryland father who was wrongly deported to El Salvador would constitute a "kidnapping" and "invasion of El Salvador's sovereignty." "He was not mistakenly sent to El Salvador," Miller lies. "This was the right person sent to the right place."

Letter from Dem Senator Chris Van Hollen (MD) requesting a meeting with Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele To discuss MD father Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return "If Kilmar is not home by midweek – I plan to travel to El Salvador this week to check on his condition and discuss his release."

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

The president told a Central American dictator to build five more massive slave labor camps to hold US citizens.

If Stephen Miller can lie about Abrego Garcia and his case on national TV, he can do it in federal court under oath. Judge Xinis should demand his appearance, question him under oath, then jail him for Contempt when he commits Perjury. This lawless administration has to be subjected to rule of law.

Strong moment from AOC’s speech in Utah

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

RFK's pledge to find "what caused the autism epidemic" in a few short months is a transparent lie, to cover a preordained conclusion. But digging deeper, it gets much worse: it's about justifying a downright sadistic assault on children's health. www.salon.com/2025/04/14/r...

The Librarians is a must-see documentary about the recent history of book banning in the US

Here are two straightforward and incontrovertible statements of law about Mahmoud Khalil: 1) Khalil is a political prisoner of the United States 2) Khallil is a "prisoner of conscience" as defined by Amnesty International We need to say these things, and the world needs to hear them

1/7 Louisiana’s new TIGER algorithm is a modern travesty, denying parole to rehabilitated inmates like Calvin Alexander. A nearly blind 70-year-old in a wheelchair, Calvin turned his life around—only to be labeled “moderate risk” & stripped of hope. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

If you're the least bit surprised that Bill Maher is working overtime to humanize the fascist in the White House, you're telling every Black & brown person over the last 25 years that you've ignored us as we've called out Maher's grotesque xenophobia. Glad to know our lived experiences don't matter.

Bill Maher stopped being funny a long time ago. Is he sucking up to Trump hoping to get a Cabinet position? Department of Small Dick Energy?

Marjorie Taylor Greene buying Apple, Pi, Qualcomm, Dell, Amazon, and Lam stocks seems a lot more sus before the tariff exemptions on electronics components, smartphones, semiconductors, and computers. Martha Stewart would like a word.

MTG is the dumbest person on the planet.. except when it comes to the stock market? 🤔

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

"I think we made the right decision" -- Tom Homan on the deportation of a Maryland dad to a gulag in El Salvador that the administration has already admitted was a mistake

We have the most anti-free speech government in modern American history. (And yet, in true Orwellian fashion, they claim to be champions of free speech.)

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

Anne Applebaum does good work based on real-world experience with autocracy and corruption, particularly in Russia and Hungary. She knows her stuff.

Been thinking of old Letterman clips for some reason.

If we want culture to thrive, not just survive, it’s on all of us now.

They are obviously slow learners

This is how the vast majority of people’s businesses on TikTok (and yes, people have made money there to support themselves, some quite well) will die. I’m pretty sure that was the point. To make people more dependent upon them.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

Fellow autist here and I am open about my experience. If you have questions, I will gladly answer from my experience (because it’s a Spectrum and we’re all different) because I’d rather you satisfy your curiosities then run with dangerous misinformation that harms the community.💙

My Washington fanatic husband is mortified that I said this out loud, but I’m an #Eagles fan now 💙💙💙

If I were Judge Xinis, I would order the government to produce, in her courtroom, officials who were in a position to answer her questions and to do so under oath. Letting DOJ continue to prevaricate and deflect responsibility in written submissions seems ... insufficient at this point.

ground.news/article/trum... More cowardice. I hope none of you ever use any of their firms in the future.

The United States government kidnapped and disappeared Abrego Garcia and sent him to El Salvador, without due process. As of today, the DOJ is defying the judge's order asking for his whereabouts and to facilitate his immediate return. This is next level authoritarianism.
