You exploit the afflicted while Senator Chris Van Hollen comforts the exploited. So Yes, not the same.

Thank you. I’d add in the years 2019/20 something else happened, or failed to happen. Trump and Miller were both in office yet did *nothing* to prosecute Garcia as a gang member. They could’ve charged him with federal crimes if it was true he was MS13 in 2019. But he wasn’t, so they didn’t.

On June 6 veterans will march in DC to demonstrate that our oaths to the Constitution still hold. This is not partisan; it’s about service, particularly the essential work of veterans in the government and those who care for them. Unite4veterans.org www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Too many ppl are sitting this out.

Hallow is extreme right wing propaganda presented with a velvet glove. Am no longer a fan of gwen stefani and the others associated with this site.

Why aren't we boycotting #Google? They're all in on representing this cursed Reich. There are SO many options: Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Firefox, Arc, Opera, Min.... These giants feel untouchable because they're massive. But...WE HAVE CHOICES. www.searchenginejournal.com/alternative-...

Fiiiiine fine, just disabled it.

How? Their constituents are nothing but low-IQ knuckledraggers who want more of this sh*t and will continue to vote that way. Deep Red areas are not reachable. Focus on the Purple regions, get ppl off their butts to vote!

For those who don’t understand how important due process is. Listen to this!!

Terrorists focused on destroying America

Their faces, their names, their contact info should be made public REPEATEDLY.

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read. He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb... I knew there was a reason the felon got rid of direct file for one’s taxes, it was payback to turbotax! Always a grift.

flashback to how americans acted the last time federal agents started kidnapping their neighbors

What good, what efficiency is served by destroying community organizations? None. And that’s the goal.

NLRB - DOGE Gave Download Access To Russia The National Labor Relations Board is a small, independent federal agency that stores reams of confidential data including proprietary business information. When DOGE got access, an IP in Russia started downloading data. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Sadly as a Canadian paid many thousands of dollars to have our son get a MBA from Columbia. That was clearly a mistake. It's now a trinket at the bottom of the crackerjack box. Horrified by the capitulation, regardless of the child's circumstances. Murica is wrong. #NeverEverTrustAmerica

President Trump just fired almost the entire staff of the CFPB, who protect you from getting scammed by Wall Street. This is another assault on consumers and our democracy by Trump's lawless Administration. We will fight back with everything we've got.

Something has changed. People are fired up and ready to stop the chaos and cruelty. Keep it up.

Ahem

The time for carefully worded letters and statements has passed. We need action. We need anyone in Congress who says they believe in the constitution, human rights, and due process to get on a plane to El Salvador and bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home. #KilmarAbregoGarcia

Tomorrow I’ll be calling all of my representatives to demand that they call for RFK jr’s immediate resignation.

I look at close to 100 stories a week and even more outside of work. I’ve done this ten years. This is among the most horrific things I’ve ever read — testimony from dying children whose access to medicine has been cut off by the Trump administration. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

Pam Bondi is a liar, propagandist and criminal accomplice. Kilmar Abrego Garcia never received a court hearing and due process. Pam Bondi is an eternal stain on the Justice Department and justice itself.

Karoline Leavitt hates when asked about gender affirming surgeries. DO NOT RETWEET THIS, The @PressSec is very sensitive about it.

WHERE the hell is Congress??

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

El Salvador refuses to let Democratic senator visit or speak with Kilmar Abrego Garcia: ‘We have an unjust situation here’

How many people do you think have received threats from Trump, Musk & their goons? Thousands? This interview by Rachel Maddow was chilling. You must watch & share it because our government is being attacked from within! The bravery of Daniel Berulis is so inspiring. I hope it's contagious. 🧵

Russia is running the United States.

Give ‘em hell, Harvard.

🚨Attention Members of the DC Bar🚨 Ballots went out today for key positions in the DC bar. Please vote for: Diane Seltzer for President Amanda Molina for Treasurer Note: Seltzer is running against Pam Bondi's brother. Get your ballot and vote ASAP.

We had the reporter on tonight; @maddow has the whistleblower

The President of El Salvador referred to having to “smuggle” Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a man with no criminal record, back into the US. Odd, how Romania didn't have to “smuggle” alleged rapist and sex trafficker Andrew Tate back into the United States. Trump facilitated that Trump fan's return.

Carnegie Museum of Art, PGH, Pinkerton Riot painting-/docent-led tour, guide asked the group what they see in this painting. Someone shouted “Jan 6!” Yep, it was a riot, a riot, a riot, not some tourists strolling through.

0ur government has been infiltrated by a foreign power. Republicans are collaborating. Can anyone please prove me wrong?

In March, after blowing up Democrats’ unified opposition to the GOP’s gov't funding bill, Chuck Schumer defended his vote, saying his red line would be: “If Trump doesn’t obey the Supreme Court.” Well, that didn't take long.

www.foxnews.com/media/presid... Fox is like the band on the titanic that kept playing music as the cold, deadly waters rose around them. “All is well, nothing to see here.”😳

🧵 If you’re not following Jordan Wheatley, you should be. He really needs our support! So let’s rally behind him ✊🏼 @jordan4texas.bsky.social He is running against Rep Keith Self. The Nazi who quoted Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s Propaganda minister, during a congressional hearing.

This post by Bryan is going viral on instagram… on some rando’s account. Why not here too? It’s spot on.

If this unfortunate man is still alive, and returned to the US, it will be a media feeding frenzy as the torture inflicted on these prisoners is exposed. The WH felon doesn’t want this to be exposed for it will change many attitudes on our home soil.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Bukele has become the felon’s puppet. Away from prying eyes, they have discussed how to keep the ruse going. The felon is spearheading the defiance of the law.

I've been clear: if President Bukele doesn't want to meet here in D.C., then I intend to go to El Salvador this week to check on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's condition and discuss his release. Kilmar was illegally ABDUCTED and deported by the Trump Admin. He must be brought home NOW.

The journalists I know at @NPR.org and @PBS.org are among the best in the business -- smart, open minded, independent and totally professional. Trump made clear in the Oval Office today that what he wants are journalists who will tell him that his policies are "wonderful," not ask tough questions.
