All I can say is that people are paying attention to a Maryland man nobody had heard of two weeks ago. If El Salvador does anything to this guy, I have feeling this will not go well for the Trump administration — perhaps not in a court of law, but in the court of public opinion…which matters

Cohen: Take MeidasTouch Network. They’re beating Joe Rogan, they’re beating Fox, they’re beating the lame stream news. So when there’s a march, all you have to do is contact the Meiselas brothers — next thing you know, you’ve got ten million people showing up. That’s an army.

Who else AGREES with Nina?! 🤚

HAPPENING NOW: At the federal courthouse in Greenbelt, Maryland, Judge Paula Xinis is set to begin a hearing on the government’s efforts – or lack thereof – to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident who was wrongly removed to El Salvador. Follow along for updates ⬇️

There's always been reason to believe DOGE was hacking govt systems. Now a whistleblower has substantiated it at NLRB, precisely the kind of data compromise labor unions worried about when they sued re DOL.

Career officials at the Internal Revenue Service were pressed by Trump officials and DOGE staffers to hand over access to sensitive taxpayer data to immigration agencies, but repeatedly refused, telling their new overseers that doing so would be illegal. Trump and Musk barreled ahead anyway.

As the government flings itself apart, we will keep coming back to the grim reality. Trump can’t be restrained, or reasoned with, or babysat for the next four years. The only way to bring power back under the rule of law is to remove a lawless man from power. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

These cuts will hit rural Arizona especially hard, where many schools have relied on these federal dollars. The Trump administration's reckless chaos and destruction will only hurt the kids who need help the most. Full press release here: www.azag.gov/press-releas...

This is fascism.

Sanders: He now wants to take away CBS’s license because they did a story that criticized him. Oh my word, CBS criticized him! Oh, let’s drive them out of business, how terrible… If you can’t take criticism, get out of the political process. This is a democracy

This is so amazing. #earthquake #sandiegozoo #elephants

“A threshold was crossed today, when Donald Trump said out loud that he’s more than ready to begin taking American citizens and putting them in a foreign gulag. We have all been warned.” www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-h...

#Toledo!! #Ohio!!

Hey SCOTUS, your boy just took off his leash.

you have to judge these things on a scale. Is it as big as George Clooney reporting that Biden is old? As big as Tim Walz mixing up what month he was in Hong Kong in 1989? As big as ANTHONY WEINERS LAPTOP?

What we saw today was two jumped up thugs and their bootlicking sychophants laughing at the US Constitution, the supreme court, and the idea that anyone can stop them from doing anything they want www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

i support any action that leads to the people in this video being put in front of an international criminal tribunal

60 Minutes Interview: “I believe, sadly, Russian narratives are prevailing in the U.S.,” Zelenskyy said.”

they’re literally just working off Canary Mission’s list

This is what Musk and DOGE have *actually* tried to do: -- Kill USAID (investigating Starlink) -- Kill CFPB (regulator for X to be payment app) -- Move $2.3 BILLION contract from Verizon to Starlink -- Force Social Security Administration to use X exclusively 100% CORRUPTION

He won’t bring Garcia back because he isn’t being bribed to bring Garcia back.

Requiring REAL IDs and passports and birth certificates to vote?!? Imagine if these were required to buy a gun.

What’s the statute of limitations on market manipulation and insider trading? Asking for 75 million friends!

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

The upheaval in stocks has been grabbing all the headlines, but there is a bigger problem looming in another corner of the financial markets that rarely gets headlines: Investors are dumping U.S. government bonds.

NYAG Leticia James has jurisdiction...Yay!

There are numerous calls to investigate whether Trump and his cronies engaged in insider trading, pump and dumps, etc. But it won't be DOJ. It won't be the SEC. It won't be Congress. You know who CAN investigate this? NY AG Letitia James - who has jurisdiction over Wall St.

Thank you Chris Krebs. You deserved better!

If you were to extort someone, you could get 20 years in prison. When Donald Trump extorts multiple law firms for $600 million, he gets a headline that manufactures consent by calling them “deals.”

JFC. "only those who voted in a few Democratic counties."

@booker.senate.gov: "Are we a nation that is going to tolerate this, or a nation that's going to stand up? As the great Frederick Douglass said, 'the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the people that they seek to oppress.' How much will we endure before we say enough is enough?"

‪HEY: who is going to let the seniors and disabled know that they need to create an X account and who is going to walk them through the how AND who is going to help them upload their most private information to give to ELON so they can prove their identity?!‬ ‪wtf. Seriously, WTAF!? ‬

In Nazi Germany, the targeted population was encouraged to self-deport and the state sought to impoverish them to force them to leave.

JUST IN: President Trump is authorizing the military to occupy and take jurisdiction over public land along the southern border.

“Taking an increasingly combative stance, the administration defied a federal judge’s order to provide a written road map of its plans to free the man, Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. Trump officials then repeatedly stonewalled her efforts to get the most basic information about him at a hearing.”

NEW: Donald Trump has long railed against everything from low-flow showerheads to LED lightbulbs. After failed attempts to undo appliance regulations in his first term, he may have found a new end-run to achieve his goal — but for now confusion reigns. By @peterelkind.bsky.social

Are you kidding me?! Think twice before you take that cruise. I worked the COVID cruise evacuations—they scarred me for life. And now? They’ve gutted the CDC unit that inspects cruise ships for norovirus, E. coli & other outbreaks. This is how preventable disasters happen. Again.

The Supreme Court rules that the government should follow the law. That’s the bare minimum we should expect of the president and his allies. We can’t turn our back on the values that make America so great. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

BREAKING: The country of Norway just entered a bill to give transgender Americans asylum in the country of Norway… LGBTQ+ STRONG! 🌈✨
