Are you watching @maddow.msnbc.com tonight? Cause….wow.

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.

This is something we can all do.👇🏼 File a complaint with the FL and DC Bar to have Pam Bondi disbarred for not complying with the 9-0 Supreme Court ruling to return Mr. Garcia from El Salvador.

Freeze frame: ICE AGENT (V.O.) As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a Nazi.

🔥 "Farmland in Norfolk is being bought up by mega-rich counts and foreign billionaires, putting the squeeze on family farms. Researchers at Who Owns Norfolk? (WON)... have found farmland is being “hoovered up” by investors from abroad."

Last night outside the BBC when the police sent in snatch squads to arrest peaceful protesters protesting a genocide

Just watched the Home Counties private schoolboy Nigel Farage telling northern voters how he understands steelworkers because he used to work in the “metals business” himself. He was, ahem, a commodities trader at the London Metal Exchange in the City.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

here's today's post: "Harvard to Donny: fuck straight off with your fascism" — go peddle that shit elsewhere. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

"After all these years in and around politics, I’d like to think I have a pretty strong stomach, but yesterday was sickening... This was not newsreel footage of two dictators meeting somewhere far away and long ago. This was yesterday. Here in the Oval Office." www.thebulwark.com/p/two-dictat...

China is openly mocking us because we are openly mockable right now.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

Photos from CECOT where Trump is forcibly and illegally sending people with no criminal record or due process after abducting them from the street, many have died from strangulation and are buried in unmarked graves. It’s essentially a death camp. An American Auschwitz.

Well- it has happened. Today we have crossed the Rubicon

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.

HE IS PROMISING TO SEND AMERICANS TO FOREIGN DEATH CAMPS. This is it. This is where America ends.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

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?

At a time when gardens are at their most important for helping wildlife cling on and as mitigation for climate impacts we need people to do the right thing. They don't, so now we need Government to... petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Labour have brought steel under state control because it is “critical infrastructure” Even more critical is our drinking water. Get on with it.

As I watch Starmer tear up Labour's prospects by attacking people in poverty, abusing those who care about the living world and appeasing the ultra-rich, I feel the same sense of dislocation as I did before the Iraq War. Anyone can see the disaster coming, except, apparently, the government.

The main concern of Reform MPs & their millionaire backers is lining their own pockets, getting even richer "British Steel slimmed down its operations in the North East after Reform UK's Richard Tice's company threatened to hike the rent on their facility." via Mirror Politics

Good morning Bluesky. What are any of the uber rich that have formed the broligarchy in the nation doing to help the those less fortunate than themselves and not just themselves? Don't say space travel, shopping, or social media. Asking for a friend.

Statement from Trump on Putin’s Palm Sunday Massacre missile attack that killed at least 34, including several children, and injured another 117 people:

2014-2024: £38bn UK tax loss due to HMRC remissions & write-offs. No need for the two child benefit cap, winter fuel payment cut, disability benefit cut Losses due to fraud, bad laws - HMRC is not a preferential creditor for businesses own taxes. Govts can enforce and change law. Why won't they?

If we can nationalise British Steel in one day, why can't we do it for Water, Energy, Rail or Mail? Lets take back the stuff that actually makes a profit.

Mom tries to comfort her daughter after they survived a Russian missile strike on Sumy this morning. Heartbreaking.

The truth behind Spinderella

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

And still we stand by and watch as Israel with the help of the US and UK commits ethnic cleansing and genocide. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

He literally tweeted: This is a great time to BUY! Just hours ago. And then he paused tariffs. He’s literally committing crimes in front of the entire world. 😳

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

All this "fraud" and yet still not a single fraud charge filed.

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

🧵 As per New York Times & Politico, the US State Department is currently ranking the usefulness of Embassies & Consulates esp. in Western Europe with a view to close as many as possible. 1/4 cc: @simonpease.bsky.social

UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off. We would have more rights at this point if UPS had lost a pair of shoes I'd just bought from Zappos

The wait for family-size social housing is more than 100 years in parts of England. Failure of govt policies for the last 50yrs. Jobs and housing not in the same place, ideolology blocked social housing, profiteering, low wages, poverty. Let councils build houses. Need people centered policies.

Correct.
