Wow. China just called out the Trump administration for blatantly lying about the existence of any ongoing negotiations between the U.S. and China.

In March, 48 people were arrested in New Mexico, according to an ICE press release. Why is nothing known about who was arrested or their whereabouts?

Jesus. A 19 year-old United States citizen was detained by ICE for 10 days. He told them he was a U.S. citizen. They didn't believe him. Heads need to roll for this. www.azpm.org/p/headlines/...

Trump was Easter Bunny smiling at the White House. In Spain, they strung him from a tree, shot him, and lit him on fire as their Judas. That’s not protest. That’s a centuries-old warning.

Four members of Congress just flew to El Salvador to see Kilmar Abrego Garcia—and were denied. Trump’s DHS says they can’t confirm where he is. This is not a deportation. It is a cover-up. And the courts already ruled it was illegal.

Q: "Do you think that the country is currently in a constitutional crisis?" Sen. Van Hollen: "Yes we are. They are very much flouting the courts as we speak...They are doing nothing. They are absolutely in violation of the courts' orders."

Big Take away from Van Hollen. The $15 million dollars the felon is paying El Salvador, nobody in congress authorized. He's already paid $4 million down? Who's $ is that? 🤔 This is not sustainable & must not continue g.d. it! 😤😡

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Trump says he’ll send education “back to the states”—just as Texas greenlights school vouchers. This isn’t about local control. It’s about defunding public schools. They want to break the system, then sell you a private one.

GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski said a fear of retaliation under Trump’s administration is rising to levels she’s not seen before. “We are all afraid ... I’m oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice because retaliation is real," she said.

Skipped the paperwork. Ignored the court order. Broke the law. Ignored the constitution. This ain’t immigration policy. This is straight-up defiance of the rule of law.

How much is your marginal tax rate? I bet it's higher than a billionaire's -- they only pay a rate of 8% on average. That's not a typo. Most people pay anywhere from 20-39% to the federal government alone. Now you do understand why America is so messed up?

A Trump-appointed judge just killed Biden’s $8 cap on credit card late fees. Banks said the rule was unfair—to them. So now we’re back to $32 penalties for being a day late. This is not about fairness. It’s about profit. And working people are the ones paying for it.

SCOTUS ordered the President, unanimously, to return Garcia to the U.S. The President is defying that order. The judicial branch cannot enforce rulings. It’s Congress who must tell the president to obey SCOTUS or else face impeachment.

Biden says Trump took a hatchet to Social Security—and he’s right. 7,000 staff gone in under 100 days. Musk’s DOGE has access to SSA data. And now they’re floating lies about 300-year-olds on benefits to justify gutting the system. They’re not fixing anything. They’re wrecking it to rob it.

The Trump administration lies that it does not have the ability to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home. Bullshit. The administration is PAYING the Salvadoran government to keep detainees at CECOT. Congress - or a Court - could order those payments to stop, immediately, right now.

Elon Musk says his DOGE plan will boost Social Security checks. That’s just not true. Benefits are based on what you earned over a lifetime—not how many offices he closes. Cutting staff won’t help seniors. It just makes it harder for them to access what’s already theirs.

Trump and Bukele claim they can't release anyone from CECOT BUT THEY ALREADY HAVE: at least 9 detainees El Salvador released back to the US in the last 3 months NINE other people freed. Why not Abrego Garcia, who's there on an "administrative error"? DEMAND HIS FREEDOM NOW

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Trump’s DOJ defied the Supreme Court. El Salvador refused to release the man they deported illegally. Now Trump’s team says bringing him back would be “kidnapping.” They’re not just ignoring the law. They’re daring the courts to stop them.
