Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "My whole point here is if you deprive one man of his constitutional rights, you threaten the constitutional rights of everybody ... if you threaten the rule of law for one person, you threaten if for everybody in America."

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

I don't know who besides the White House needs to hear this, but spraying cheap, Chinese-made foam wall decorations with gold spray paint isn’t classy, it’s tacky as hell and prodigiously embarrassing Right now the Oval Office looks like the dumpster behind a Michael’s

Sorry, we promised not to post much today but we had to make a special callout. We forgot to give a proper shoutout to a few places yesterday. Denver and Dallas Fort Worth, you broke records. You were incredible.

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

An absolute must-read from @stevevladeck.bsky.social this morning: “Just before 1:00 a.m., the justices (aggressively) stepped back into the Alien Enemy Act litigation—in a decision suggesting that a majority understands that these are no longer normal circumstances.”

This is how a real Congressman does things!! Dem Sen. Chris Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador in an attempt to meet with him and push for his release. Initially denied access, Van Hollen persisted until the Salvadoran government finally relented, allowing a meeting.

The correct solution, the framers would have told you, is that's what impeachment and removal is for. But...there are more than half of the members of the United States Congress who refuse to do their duties, and that is why we are." @gtconway.bsky.social with @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social:

Today marks the 250th anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, which began the American Revolution. Our nation was founded on resistance to arbitrary authority and monarchical power. We built a democracy in the face of impossible odds. We must continue to protect it.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Serious question: Do you think Bukele understands how this ends up for him? If Trump is ever not in power, El Salvador will become one of the most reviled US neighbors in this hemisphere. Tourism will collapse—and he'll be blamed. Is he so stupid he doesn't see where all this leads?

My mom volunteers with a group that does vision screenings for kids. Head Start is one of the places they go a lot. So many kids vision problems have been discovered and managed early because of Head Start. It would be hard to reach those kids without Head Start.

BREAKING: A court ruled that our case challenging Rümeysa Öztürk's unlawful detention should move forward in Vermont, instead of Louisiana, and that ICE must transfer her there. Nobody should be shipped to a detention facility halfway across the country for writing an op-ed.

Here are some relevant sources & facts proving the crime rate of U.S. citizens is higher vs undocumented immigrants & crime rate drops in immigrant populated areas. As a Native American I'm sick of most Right Wing White People placing fear in our country when they're the real terrorists of people.

Van Hollen: I should also just say, I mentioned the fake margarita, they actually wanted to have the meeting by the side of the pool in the hotel. They want to create this appearance that life was just lovely for Kilmar. Which of course is a big, fat lie.
