I’m horrified. They should be arrested and jailed immediately.

I’m truly sorry I’m too disabled to be there in person. I will be there in spirit.

If the IRS deprives Harvard of its tax-exempt status, that's very bad for Harvard but it's also a catastrophe for the IRS. Instead of a neutral agency that enforces tax law, it will become a tool of partisan warfare. It may never recover.

We are all Spartacus. And make no mistake, if they deny due process here, we are all also Kilmar Abrego Garcia. First portion/report reposted from @meidastouch.com @thepersistnetwork.bsky.social #iamspartacus #kilmarabregogarcia #project2025 #dueprocess #elsalvador #CECOT #clawsout #catlady

So true.

I have autism. I graduated high school with honors and had the highest SAT score in school history. I've been married to my wonderful wife for 28 years and have three amazing children. I've had a successful career as a software and DevOps engineer and paid plenty in taxes. Go fuck yourself RFK Jr.

And many are outright geniuses, and engage in more productive activity in an hour than RFK Jr. will in his entire life.

As am I.

Doing a great job Senator.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Which chicken shit House Dem said this off the record? Which one of you is too cowardly to add your name to this horrid statement? Speak up so we can primary your ass back to the stone age.

I guess that if you are not a white male in this administration you’re discriminated against.

Who would want to come here? Even citizens are not safe.

I agree!

There is no U/Haul behind the hearse.

I do 100%.

100%.

Free to be you and me!

NEW: President Trump and Elon Musk’s reckless, illegal cuts are hurting folks across our state and country, including now local librarians and UW-Stevens Point’s Natural History Museum. We’re joining another lawsuit to stop them. More here ⬇️ content.govdelivery.com/accounts/WIG...

It’s a good time to be a white male in America. For everybody else it’s not.

Excellent Mehdi!

So sad that those of us that didn’t vote for him will suffer as well.

Nobody…

👍

God I wish they would.

The same people in DC who got us into this mess are not going to be the ones to get us out of it. Today I'm announcing my campaign for U.S. Senate. Because we don't have a minute to wait.

Burn it all to the ground and buy up the land and water and minerals at rock bottom prices. This a fire sale for the oligarchy. How do I know? They’ve already done it to rural America…

Me too.

Wisconsin! Judge Susan Crawford will work to protect your rights and freedoms. So get out there and vote today by 8pm. You can find your polling place at wisdems.org/vote. If you have any questions about voting, call or text the Voter Assistance Hotline at 608-336-3232.

And please let your family, friends and neighbors know. Call them, offer to give them a ride.

I’m resisting with every ounce of energy.

Done ✔️

next week it will always have been standard operating procedure to divulge nuclear launch codes on the Joe Rogan show

"It’s worth remembering that for all their power and might, the overwhelming majority of Biglaw has been eerily silent on the matter. But not elite boutique law firms. Elias Law Group Chair Marc Elias has been vocal in his commitment to the cause and Keker Van Nest came out swinging."

Actually, no “strong-arming,” was required at all, was it?. You didn’t wait for an executive order. You didn’t join with your fellow lawyers in fighting back. You didn’t stand on any principle. You embraced your ignominy. You pathetic Vichy flunkies. charliesykes.substack.com/p/the-quisli...

No lies told here.

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence. Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

She will be a wonderful Judge on our Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Today, Rep. Dan Goldman and I re-introduced the Abortion Care Awareness Act of 2025. This bill directs HHS to launch a national education campaign so people know their rights, understand their options, and can access accurate info about abortion care.
