Either the U.S. government *is* able to exert monetary and diplomatic pressure on El Salvador sufficient to produce Abrego Garcia’s release, or it isn’t. The latter would be either a bald-faced lie or a pretty stunning concession of our national impotence. The Vice President should pick one.

There we go. Support this man.

The constitutional crisis is here. The President is disobeying lawful court orders. His advisors and allies are cheering him on. And Kilmar Abrego Garcia remains trapped in a jail in El Salvador. youtu.be/HGTIELDTHOo?...

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.

NEW: The Trump admin confirms that Columbia junior Yunseo Chung is the redacted name in Marco Rubio's letter declaring her and Mahmoud Khalil threats to US foreign policy. The letter came only two days after her arrest at a Barnard pro-Palestinian sit-in. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

Absolutely brutal

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.

Orwell didn't know the half of it

Every woman knows the expression on this woman’s face. You have a good idea what the next level looks like for this guy and you know better than to take your eyes off him for one second.

Just openly bragging about taking bribes, eh? That’s where we’re at now?

Think about what kind of person you have to be to lie about sending someone to a torture prison for life based on nothing bsky.app/profile/atru...

Got nervous for a sec. 😰

I Hope Millions of Americans Will Participate Again…😊💙💙💙💙

Why indeed? I encourage you to click on his post and read the thread.

New Resource: A group of law students have put together a tracker of their assessments of law firms either standing up or capitulating to Trump. Follow their work here:

Joseph Peters had the courage to speak up during @booker.senate.gov’s town hall, & he pled with everyone listening...to PLEASE protect Medicaid. Joseph, thank you for this #CupOfJoe from you & your Mom. It’s full of bravery & love. I hope that the GOP hears you. Call your MOCs 202-224-3121!

The Trump Administration’s attacks on the NIH are delaying life-saving treatments and setting back the fight against cancer, heart disease, and more. We must restore funding, support patients, and protect essential research. www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

I'm here in Mount Kisco, NY to tell Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the GOP HANDS OFF AMERICA Much of the focus on today's events will probably be the large rallies in big cities But make no mistake It is the smaller rallies The local rallies That will be the backbone of this movement

Protesters in Frankfurt, Germany showed up to support the Hands Off! protest movement. Thank you, Germany! 🇩🇪

Since January 20th, the market has evaporated 11 trillion dollars. TRILLIONS gone forever. Thanks MAGASSES.

In 2022, undoc workers paid $25.7b into Social Security, $6.4b into Medicare, and nearly $2b into unemployment (again, ineligible for all). Undoc workers have been helping subsidize critical federal programs for Americans—and the thanks they’ll get is mass abduction and deportation 👇🏽 #AtWhatCost

NEW: Maryland federal judge Paula Xinis orders the Trump administration to "facilitate and effectuate the return" of Kilmar Abrego Garcia—the man the govt admits it erroneously deported to El Salvador—by no later than Monday. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Yeah the world isn’t super happy with America’s president.

Luv 2 live in a country that elected to set itself on fire instead of honestly dealing with its legacy of racism

More than 275,000 layoffs were announced last month, reaching a level not seen since the pandemic, according to a new report. The biggest culprit was one particular employer: the federal government cnn.it/42dIxcF

The last 24 hours brought a parade of humiliation for Musk, starting with his $20 million losing bet on the GOP candidate for the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Hours later, Tesla reported its biggest sales drop ever. Then came a story quoting MAGA insiders who say that Musk has overstayed his WH welcome.

Raskin: Would it be problem for it to be standard practice to conduct sensitive foreign policy on a signal chat group? It just came out that Waltz’s team set up 20 signal group chats for crises across the world… I’m sure this will raise the question on whether he should continue in that position

Losing Mike Flynn loses in the FL Supreme Court against me. We’re done here.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

Pam Bondi has just announced charges against the alleged Tesla firebomber. "We are seeking 20 YEARS IN PRISON." — we’re cool with pardoning J6 defendants. AG Pam Bondi seeks death penalty for Luigi Mangione — school shootings are cool. And, No, I’m not ok with firebombing Teslas or murder

Canada has launched investigations into whether Tesla unlawfully gained business by securing $43 million CAD ($30 million USD) in government subsidies after 4 dealerships sold nearly 8,600 cars in 3 days, roughly one every 2 minutes per showroom, in January. 🍿

17 Teslas were destroyed in a fire at a showroom in Rome, Italy. Is Donald Trump gonna call this “domestic terrorism” too? 🙄
