In previous administrations, this would have been an impeachable scandal.

Easy to see how all this will end. Why would the audience ever click through to anything if AI can satisfy in the first interaction? www.avclub.com/washington-p...

this is precisely how twitter would have been in germany in the 1940s

ICE is now asserting it's a federal crime for bystanders to request that masked people in plain clothes show identification as they're handcuffing folks and stuffing them into unmarked vans.

The default Dem position should be that nothing under Trump is valid. Trump didn't honor his predecessors' agreements. He didn't even honor his own trade agreements. He didn't honor Congressional appropriations. He doesn't follow laws. Clean slate. If you rely on him, your loss.

BOUIE: Trump “does not see himself as a representative working with others to lead the nation; he sees himself as a boss, whose will ought to be law.” @jamellebouie.net www.nytimes.com/2025/04/26/o...

Before they exiled the kids, they used them as hostages. I hate this so much. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

You mean exiled.

This is so bizarre. Ultimately, Burgum will be blamed when DOGE cost cutting affects National Parks, our most popular public agency. Why delegate when you are going to eat the blame? Something to be said for Cabinet officials who care about their political reputation rather than billionaires.

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense. Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

Once again the principle that trump is practically hypnotized by the last person he talks to on any issue is undefeated

“He is terrified, he won’t go outside, he won’t go to class.” A USF grad student with an expunged record for a misdemeanor allegation had his visa revoked—and spent his lifesavings fighting it—only for DHS to reverse course and reinstate his status. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/e...

When these people tell you they didn’t understand he would do this please remember that they’re just liars and cowards

Truly apropos of nothing, one of the most inexplicable parts of Trump Era media coverage has been the total lack of interest in his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. They were very close friends! Ghislane recruited girls AT MAR-A-LAGO. There's video of them giggling as they watch young girls dance!

I think we should raise the salience of this.

THEY HAVE DEPORTED A TWO YEAR OLD CHILD BIRTHRIGHT CITIZEN This is why I have no patience anymore for people playing games with this stuff.

If New York elects Cuomo you are just not a serious city. Don't bother us with your little in-the-know New Yorkisms anymore. They are no longer cute. Learn to say "in line" like every other normal dipshit in this country who can't stop electing right wing Democrats.

Trump's deportation force is currently holding three times as many people at Krome as their capacity. Two of the detainees have died. Reportedly more than 40 women are being held at this all-male facility. Reports of lack of water and food, unsanitary conditions and medical neglect.

They’re just openly going for a fascist dictatorship.

Luigi Mangione's attorney Karen Agnifilo said during a hearing that the Manhattan DA's office informed her that someone listened to an attorney-client call — but it was "inadvertent." "We were just informed by state court prosecutors that they were eavesdropping on all of Mr. Mangione’s calls."

so, arresting judges should be more than enough reason for complete obstruction at in the house and senate. complete obstruction. anything you can do. interrupt proceedings, deny consent, holds on nominations. everything.

Telling my boss that I've written 200 beautiful emails and I'll be revealing them very strongly in the next few weeks. I can't say who I sent the emails to or what they were about but the response has been frankly very positive and I think you'll be very happy
