A measles-infected quack treated children in Texas while RFK Jr., now Health Secretary, praised him as an “extraordinary healer.” As measles spreads across 24 states, RFK pushes junk cures and anti-vax lies. Three are dead, and the cult of ignorance sits at the head of public health. 1/2

The IRS launched its own tax filing program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free. Tax prep companies like Intuit lobbied for years to stop the IRS from doing this. Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration. Now Trump is gutting the program. Hello?

Due process is constitutionally afforded to anyone in the USA, citizen or not. I would like Marco Rubio and every GOP Congressperson and Senator to go on record NOW that they no longer support due process. It's what they're saying by their silence. One reporter needs to make them SAY IT out loud.

Odd, how the United States doesn't have enough money to give sick veterans healthcare, impoverished seniors Social Security, or hungry schoolkids lunches, but it does have enough money to pay a Central American dictator millions to torture American residents in his brutal concentration camp.

Senator Van Hollen’s commitment to the Abrego Garcia case isn’t performative. Wearing an overnight maxi pad on your ear after an “assassination attempt” is performative.

So the White House story is now: “We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.” The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

This is the most terrifying thread you will ever read. I am dead serious. This is the smoking gun that the United States is being taken over by a hostile actor on the most sensitive levels. This is THE WORST POSSIBLE SCENARIO. I can not stress what catastrophe we are witnessing. Elon deserves death

What a joke: Trump officials claimed the letter sent to Harvard with a list of demands was a "mistake" sent w/o authorization. Because Harvard defended themselves, the White House announced they were freezing funding and Trump threatened to remove their tax-exempt status anyway. What a shit show.

OMG. “After DOGE gained access to NLRB’s systems, there was an increase in attempted logins from locations outside the US, including a user with a Russian IP address. The person with the Russian IP address appeared to have a correct username and password, created minutes earlier by DOGE engineers.”

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit. ICE officers. Cabinet members. White House staffers. Even the president.

Trump: "You're talking about Abrego Garcia -- is an illegal alien MS-13 gang member and foreign terrorist. This comes out of the State Department and very legitimate sources I assume. I'm just giving you what they handed to me but this is supposed to be certified stuff."

If you think you can't make a political issue out of "people shouldn't be grabbed off the street and put in a foreign gulag forever," maybe consider getting out of politics/punditry. And these aren't technical slogans: they appear in the Declaration of Independence and in the Constitution (twice).

One way to understand the Trump administration in its second term as explicit class warfare by an alliance of billionaires and gentry against knowledge workers and professionals or the Professional-managerial class. For Trump's war on PMC to work, he has to not destroy his allies while fighting it.
