May we become a nation worthy of Rumeysa Ozturk's faith.

Next time someone claims that right-wing politics is motivated by "protecting children," remind them of that time right-wing ICE kidnapped a man at a gas station and left his children alone in his truck. #AmericanGestapo

“ This is arguably the biggest grift in modern history” - @profgalloway.com

A Member of Congress —who was at the facility today with the Newark mayor — told Alicia Menendez on air tonight that the Newark mayor was *invited* into the detention facility. And then when he left, ICE arrested him for trespass!

Make it make sense

If you are also worried about tariffs and supply chain shortages, and have the financial means to prepare, here is what I have stocked up on and plan to buy soon, plus what I would get if I had kids, a car or a larger home, based on reporting I've read or done myself in the last several months (🧵):

One important part of this is to get the risks that Noem is ignoring--like Chinese and Russian hacking--on the record.

Exclusive: A series of internal government messages obtained by The Post reveal how U.S. embassies and the State Department have pushed nations to clear hurdles for U.S. satellite companies, often mentioning Starlink by name.

OF COURSE

Thank you, Abbe Lowell!!

When you start digging into the vast dark money networks on the right, it becomes clear that this is already war. The violence is just mostly carried out via budget line items. But they’ve been waging a war on America for decades. They’ve been playing the long game. And our side? Been sleeping.

Trump likes to talk about "law and order," but his administration is defying a unanimous Supreme Court order to return a Maryland man who was deported illegally and sent to a notorious prison camp. app.sosha.ai/s/3ecdvhHb

#ResistanceRoots Rodger Wilton Young was born on this day in 1918 in Tiffin, Ohio. Young was nearly deaf and blind but nevertheless served in the U.S. Army in WWII. He was killed on New Georgia in the Solomon Islands, intentionally drawing fire so that his unit could escape a Japanese ambush. /1

Trump's Mad About His Ratings Stuck playing a reality TV role with headlines like - “Trump’s approval at 100 days lower than any president.” He's afraid of losing power in the eyes of the public. That is why Trump is so upset. open.substack.com/pub/deanobei...

WATCH: “You’re saying you revere a time when their ancestors were in bondage.” In NC, @davidjoy.bsky.social powerfully explains why it’s wrong to remove a “compromise plaque” without public input, and why revering the confederacy is offensive. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DI9vdzA...

The Secretary of the Navy, John Phelan, went to pay his respects to the servicemembers and civilians lost in Pearl Harbor on “June 7th, 1941.” It looks good, except Pearl Harbor happened on December 7th. It seems Mr. Phelan skipped that part of history class. Only the best people, right?

The level of criminal conduct here is hard to imagine www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

NEW: A federal judge raised alarm Friday that the Trump administration appeared to have deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with "no meaningful process" — even as her father was fighting to keep her in the country. Details w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Hey @gallego.senate.gov, see this? You fell into a "trap" -- but not the one you thought. You could have been - and should have been - a leader fighting this fascism. Lots of us who donated thought you would tbh Someone gave you really shitty advice. Fire them and fight fascism

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.

Agree!

Oh it definitely should go viral. Repost far and wide Kids. Considering Kimmel and his team gets under the Mango Mussolini's skin, ya know he is going to bite in 3, 2, 1...

Absolutely every business should do this.
