So true.

This is what judges should be doing right now. If the Trump administration is going to insist that it can’t bring back anyone once they’re removed, then federal judges should put the brakes on any and all removals until the *full* legal process—to ensure the removals are valid—has run its course.

This is simultaneously the grossest and most accurate ad I’ve ever seen. #MAGABlowingYourTaxes

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.

Q: What distinguishes a prison from a concentration camp?

El Salvador is a very small impoverished country that consistently produces refugees and organized crime, Bukele is a very wealthy man that’s pushed for cryptocurrency. Bought over 34 new luxury properties. Crypto is favoured by organized crime to launder money. You do the math.

If Trump comes after you, and you have some resources—think law firms and universities, not foreign students disappeared for speech—then you have a moral and patriotic obligation to fight back. If nothing else, it ties up the regime’s resources. They don’t have that much. They need capitulators.

We read this at our Seder.

How I prob just sounded in my Culture & Tech class while talking about data scraping, Palintir, Clearview AI, fed kidnapping of both student protestors w/ no criminal charges and alleged criminals who were shipped to an El Salvadorian torture prison (w/ no evidence or charges). All new info to them!

ACLU is no longer posting on X, now on Bluesky. @aclu.org 👏👏👏 1.6M followers on X

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

She told us to shut up, now we can do the same to her. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcVY...

If your client or loved one has been disappeared by the US gov, whether to Guantánamo, a Salvadoran gulag, or some other incomunicado/unregistered ICE or CBP facility, I urge you to report it to the UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (thread): www.ohchr.org/en/special-p...

“May Day! May Day for Musk!” May our next big event grace your calendar! We are striking with the General Strike USA. We need to boycott every business he has: Tesla X, SpaceX, and Starlink. May-be we’ll see you there 👀 #TeslaTakedown @teslatakedown.com @generalstrikeus.bsky.social

I’m leading a letter with Rep. Terri Sewell and 131 colleagues demanding answers from the White House, USTR, Treasury, Commerce, and the SEC. Who knew about Trump’s tariff reversal? When did they know? How did they know? $300B didn’t move by accident. This is market manipulation.

NEW: The Board of Immigration Appeals has been formally reduced from 28 members to 15 members, an action which "coincidentally" purges every single Board member appointed during the Biden administration. This comes as the BIA faces record backlogs — which will now get much worse.

DoDEA is the education system that the children of military personnel all around the world use. www.stripes.com/theaters/asi...

It is going to take a whole lot of effort folks to break up this shadow governing system they have created. Gather your steam, we have to make things right again.

*This* is the man ICE has kidnapped, deprived, and abused: a Georgetown scholar of peace and fellow at the Alwaleed Bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding. He's being held & abused by the US government to facilitate the murder of Palestinians in Gaza & silence domestic critics.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

This is human trafficking, and usually we put people who do it in prison instead of handing them the full power of the state.

Elon Musk murdered these children.

As the author of a history of concentration camps, I would like to emphasize that this is a very bad idea, and we should definitely not do it.

Only staggering if you think that these facilities are going to be reserved for “immigrants”

UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off. We would have more rights at this point if UPS had lost a pair of shoes I'd just bought from Zappos

It’s the stupid, economy.

They are doing reparations for insurrectionists.

I’m loosing my god damn mind… why the fuck is Chaya out doing morning ICE raids??

Public Service Announcement

An LCD plant costs tens of billions of dollars There are fewer than 50 worldwide, owned by roughly 5 companies Nearly all of the plants are in China (a few are in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan but all the new ones are in China)

This attorney interrupts an attempted ICE kidnapping ICE didn't know what the person looked like and was fishing for anyone they could find The person they are looking for is 15 years old

Graphic of the Day. #StockMarketCrash

This week, Congress could simply remove Trump's power over tariffs. It's all delegated from Congress. But instead

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

As protests gain momentum, it's important to recognize and call out COINTELPRO-style behavior Many people who engage in this type of behavior aren't feds. They probably mean well. They are also engaging in behaviors that are so good at disrupting movements that the FBI literally weaponized them

In other news, our Ed Blazina reports from "the bathtub," and our @stevemellon412.bsky.social reports from one of "more than 1,400 'Hands Off!' rallies across the country, from Anchorage, Alaska, to New York," he writes. "It felt like a community." www.unionprogress.com
