ICE officers are now reportedly required to meet arrest quotas each day, from a few hundred to between 1,200 and 1,500 nationwide. Jonathan Blitzer reports on the mystery of the agency’s unidentifiable arrests.

Very creative, San Francisco! 8647 ✊

It wasn't a "deportation." It was an abduction. Mr. Abrego Garcia was kidnapped.

This is not a fight of Abrego Garcia vs tariffs. It’s a fight of do something vs do nothing. Other Dems are looking at Van Hollen flying to El Salvador in horror that they may also be pressured to act. The tariff fight just means the most they have to do is say a few words on TV.

A federal judge has once again blocked Musk staffers who are operating within the Social Security Administration from accessing the sensitive personal data of millions of Americans.

They are not right wing Liberals. They are white supremacist fascists. You don’t shame them for lack of consistency with Liberal values. You remove them from democratic politics because they don’t believe all humans are of equal value. There’s no such thing as a democratic nazi.

Communities are organizing ICE patrols using radios and megaphones—but what we really need is an ICE alert website where people can share details of ICE activity in real time to help protect and inform one another.

We’re not sure what separates the Trump admin from the “terrorists” it claims to be fighting. You watch whats happening and can’t even process it—what the hell is going on is all we can think. Our Constitution grants everyone within this country the same legal protections, regardless of citizenship.

DOGE was never about savings. It was always about surveillance. Over the weekend, we released new details—and now whistleblowers are coming forward too. What’s becoming clearer by the day: DOGE isn’t a government efficiency program. It’s a data weapon aimed at the American people.

BREAKING: We are in a Constitutional crisis as Trump digs in his heels over Abrego Garcia, a Maryland Senator will go to El Salvador to visit him, China stops Boeing shipments, and Harvard takes on Trump. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Hey NORTH CAROLINAAAAAA! There’s about 60k of you that need to find out if your ballot in the latest election was thrown out! NC Supreme Court, after an appeal by GOP bc THREE recounts confirmed dem candidate won, invalidated 60k ballots in heavy Dem districts. REPOST!!!!!!

BREAKING: There was a bloodbath in the Stock Market today (worst since March 2020), China nixed a TikTok deal because of Trump's tariffs, Trump was ordered to return a wrongfully deported man from El Salvador, and so much more. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved. * very unconstitutional

This is the first time it’s ever been canceled! Climate change is real and this is so sad for our service industry!

Millions of Americans are flooding the streets today. #handsoff

We just want to say—we’re sorry. We know how emotionally exhausting all of this is, and we truly understand. But you’re not alone. We’re in this together.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

🚨Did you know the Nazis ordered books burned, art destroyed, statues removed in order to suppress and remove the country's history so they could reshape nazi youth education and control what citizens interacted with daily? This is what villainous regimes do.🇺🇲 abcnews.go.com/Politics/mus...

Dear Democratic Members of Congress, Stop telling me about what he's doing. We can all see it. Start telling me about what you're doing to stop it! Signed, Americans

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

The Trump admin is having guys in hoodies throw students into unmarked cars for writing dissenting op-eds and Democrats are still confirming its nominees. Universities are bowing to its demands. NPR is saying it should add more Republicans to its staff. We're nearing the end of that slippery slope

I donated to PBS today since Marjorie Taylor Greene and House Republicans, along with Elon Musk, are screeching again. They're the best publicity that a company could ask for. www.pbs.org/donate/

Let me see if I have this all straight: as of today we don’t have freedom of the press (NPR/PBS getting grilled) freedom of speech (write an op/ed in your college paper) or due process rights (get snatched off the street by masked thugs) AND Elon Musk still controls the treasury?

I had legit completely forgotten this.

NEWS: The Trump Administration has engaged in one of the largest national security blunders in the 21st century, Trump increases threats on law firms, and Ohio Republicans roll back child labor laws. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

BREAKING: Social Security is in complete disarray, Karoline Leavitt and Pete Hegseth try to gaslight Americans over yesterday's national security blunder, and Trump invokes the state secrets privilege to block Judge Boasberg from getting information. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

This isn’t normal

This is all very intentionally happening and it’s important we acknowledge that. It’s also important we are supporting federal employees right now

BREAKING: Democrats held a record breaking rally in Arizona, drawing more than 23,000 people, the Trump Administration trusts Putin and takes him at his word, and horrifying conditions at detention centers have been exposed. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

We all have to stand up for our friends and neighbors. This isn’t okay and it isn’t normal!

1/5 So just to recap: we’re on track to lose $500 billion in tax revenue this year, thanks to gutting the IRS. But wait—it gets better! The GOP is also pushing a $4.5 trillion tax cut… for billionaires. Because obviously they would. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

After assuring undocumented immigrants for decades that they should pay their taxes honestly and their records would not be shared with immigration authorities, IRS now prepares to hand over their information to the Gestapo. Shameful. www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/20...

Thank you Aaron for always keeping me up to date on the insanity that is our government under the Trump administration

One of my Radical Leftist opinions is the government shouldn't be able to deprive anyone of life, liberty, or property without due process of law

This is important information to know. Please share it with your friends and family. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vK6f...

Shameful

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

President Trump's illegal firing of two members of the Federal Trade Commission is an unconstitutional power grab — and will hurt consumers, who the FTC protects from fraud, scams, and monopoly power. abcnews.go.com/Business/wir...

FTC Removes Posts Critical of Amazon, Microsoft, and AI Companies - WIRED

WIRED is well worth the (low!) subscription price, and I hope many people will subscribe, but I'm also so glad to know that even people who haven't paid will have access to researched, well-written articles.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.
