DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

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

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

The US economy is set to lose billions of dollars in revenue in 2025 from a pullback in foreign tourism and boycotts of American products.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

AOC: Only 2% of people on Medicaid are able-bodied.. I saw Mike Johnson saying we have to stop all the able-bodied men from being on Medicaid — as if it’s a crime for someone to have healthcare in America. Healthcare is a human right, and everyone should have it.

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of NC Alliance for Retired Americans and VoteVets AF, my firm has filed an appeal to the Fourth Circuit to block the Republicans' efforts to steal a North Carolina state Supreme Court election. Follow Democracy Docket for full details. www.democracydocket.com/cases/north-...

I’ve just posted this video message to members of the DC Bar, urging them to vote *AGAINST* AG Pam Bondi’s brother to be its next president. Please pass this on to anyone who is eligible to vote. www.instagram.com/reel/DIcQFxt...

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

AOC: When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

"The security of the world is at stake." Well worth watching President Zelenskyy's interview on 60 Minutes www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine...

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, “Why are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?” I’ll give you one simple answer: It’s because you matter

MIT following Harvard's lead here

We all want our government to work efficiently. But cutting Social Security to give tax cuts to billionaires isn’t efficient - it’s wrong.

AOC: “Donald Trump is a criminal. Convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.” More here:

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens. The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)

Part of the reason the Continental Army was able to rally back from that terrible winter at Valley Forge was that George Washington ordered that the soldiers should be inoculated against smallpox.

FAFO…👇 I guess he forgot that KARMA keeps receipts, huh?! Clarence. Is. A. Traitor. ✨

Can’t believe it’s #america 💔

But it’s not about race or color right!?

If you need a passport or a way to get signed up to vote, go to your nearest Democratic office and they will help you! Get an application at the nearest post office. You can get your picture taken at the local Rite Aid get online and look PM me if you need any help.

Vets need to do this. We'll be behind you!

Trump Voter Losing His Business Thinks We Should All Love Each Other. youtu.be/5irTdX-mpsQ?...

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

“Erik Prince wants to cut a deal to transport detainees from the US to El Salvador *** The proposal would “target ‘criminal illegal aliens’” and “attempt to avoid legal challenges by designating part of the prison…as American territory.” 4/11/25 1/

ATTENTION PLEASE:

[____] A letter to Australian Sydney Morning Herald newspaper...

The governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, said he and his family were evacuated from their home early on Sunday after an arson attack that significantly damaged a section of the governor’s residence.

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

Pathetic.

Last night at about 2AM, my family and I woke up to bangs on the door from the Pennsylvania State Police after an arsonist set fire to the Governor’s Residence in Harrisburg.
