“…ICE had known prior to the check-in that the four-year-old was in active treatment for cancer. They removed him from the country without his medication and without consulting with his doctors.” Horrendous cruelty💔

This brief summary of yesterday’s letter is really good.

“…And funding for investigating child sexual abuse and internet crimes against children; responding to reports of missing children; and preventing youth violence has been withdrawn indefinitely.” Horrendous 😭💔

Ready for more Earth Day? This documentary (funded in part by NEH) on @pbs.org about John Muir, conservationist & Sierra Club founder, is worth a watch. shorturl.at/1kkeR PS: Our friends at PBS are under the threat of massive funding cuts as well. You can learn more here: shorturl.at/VpyVX

“Trust doesn’t just come from one signal- it’s built up from many overlapping ones.” Jay the great makes building a functional, decentralized, democratic platform sound like philosophical poetry 👏🏻🤌🏼

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

In a time of militant Christian nationalism it can be hard for good people of faith to feel justified discussing their beliefs. But we need those voices more than ever. Do not let the most hateful versions of faith flourish. #belovedcommunity #goodfriday

Exactly!

“And once in a great while, someone will light a lantern—or even two—that will shine forth for democratic principles that are under siege, and set the world ablaze.” -Beautiful words by the great HCR

DOGE is a plague and glad that they are being exposed. THANK YOU PBS NewsHour. youtu.be/oWpqJ8pD2Ng?...

Remember them migrating to Argentina and Venezuela during and after WWII? Hmmm. Similarities are striking. www.chimuadventures.com/en/blog/how-...

For years, Trump has attacked our election security—most infamously on Jan 6 (and nearly every day since). Now, his team is slashing funding for the very agencies that protect against election cyberattacks. Pamela Smith warns: Our democracy only works when our elections work.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

This is SO important to understand!

Lawlessness and shamelessness.

"Trump has an obvious weakness that makes America weak. He places the American economy at risk for the sake of a personal foible, a visible vulnerability." snyder.substack.com/p/trumps-psy...

Just a reminder: Congress could reverse these insane tariffs TODAY. Republicans are just choosing not to. Every Republican in Congress who refuses to do something is endorsing Trump's tax hike on YOU.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

In years to come, the people who did this will be the ones who will go to jail.

Seeing as how the president was golfing in Jupiter, FL while the financial world burns to the ground….

"The catch is that in order to get attention, you have to be terrible. You have to lie or embrace evil. In the attention economy there is enormous demand for civic blasphemy. What’s hard is getting attention for messages about truth, or virtue, or love."

“Our client, who was in the middle of seeking asylum, just disappeared.” Lindsay Toczylowski represents 31-year-old Andry, a gay makeup artist from Venezuela who was flown to a notorious prison by the Trump administration after seeking asylum in the U.S. MORE: www.cbsnews.com/news/venezue...

Goal achieved: An unusual number of people in an unusual number of places. 1,300 globally. There were probably more than 10,000 speakers alone at rallies today. Baffling to think about this scale!

Heck yeah! 🫶🏻

Trump doesn't give a damn about women's health care. That has always been true—and his actions speak volumes more than his lies.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

This an excellent article on what we/ you have lost in the mass firings in the FDA. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

This is your “deep state” America. We are losing entire generations of scientists. #cdc #publichealth #bestandbrightest

It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

Beautiful👏🏻

Sen. Cory Booker is putting his body on the line, refusing to let the Senate carry on like democracy isn’t under siege. 👏 Billionaires are staging a hostile takeover, & too many are asleep at the wheel. 👀 We see who’s fighting & who’s complicit. Watch LIVE now—> www.senate.gov/legislative/...

The Trump administration has acknowledged that it mistakenly deported a Maryland father with protected status to El Salvador—but claims that the courts cannot order him back. A @nickmiroff.bsky.social exclusive:

More. Of. This👏🏻👏🏻

I noted the plaintiff in the case against the military transgender ban that just resulted in a nationwide injunction against it, out of WA state, is Commander Emily Shilling, a Navy fighter and test pilot who transitioned while in the service. glaad.org/transgender-...

It seems ICE had a quota for Venezuelan gang members & filled it by picking up people with tattoos. Rose, hummingbird, soccer, mother, Autism awareness. For that people are taken from their families & sent to spend the rest of their lives in horrifying conditions. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
