How the fuck do we live in a world where roughly half of all American women can now buy a gun far more easily than they can vote? #NewsCorpse

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he has “100% hatred” toward Russian leader Vladimir Putin. “How else can you see a person who came here and murdered our people, murdered children?” says Zelenskyy. https://cbsn.ws/3YyaIlp

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @andertoon.bsky.social )

Oh. We’re so, so fucked. Beyond fucked. Incredibly fucked.

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

Would men need to provide a marriage certificate to vote? No? Just women? Got it.

Gov. Shapiro says he and his family "woke up to bangs on the door from the Pennsylvania State Police" early Sunday morning. The fire caused significant damage, but fortunately, no one was injured.

Nobody knows from one hour to the next what the policy of the US govt is that impacts trillions of dollars in global trade. There is no economic certainty for investors, corporations, or small businesses. Mad King Donald is determined to wreck this economy.

NEWS: In today's declaration filed by the government in Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case, the govt still provides no information or past or current efforts to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return. Instead, an asst dir of ICE suggests that Abrego Garcia "is no longer eligible for withholding of removal."

Requiring REAL IDs and passports and birth certificates to vote?!? Imagine if these were required to buy a gun.

NEW: The govt has filed it's daily status report on Abrego Garcia. ICE official Evan Katz declares Abrego Garcia was removed illegally, but that's okay now because the government has declared he's a member of MS13, and they have no further updates. WOW. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

"As the grim cavalcade of news about the Trump administration’s mass deportation program continues, it’s worth paying attention to the places where that program appears to be on its shakiest footing." ICYMI @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social on successful pressure campaigns:

Area Man Claims To Be Strongest Leader in World But Can’t Ask El Salvador a Favor

Everyone needs to see the best moments from Bernie Sanders and AOC’s rally in front of 36,000 people today. Something big is happening in this country.

At least 21 people were killed and 83 others were wounded by a Russian ballistic missile strike in the heart of the northern Ukrainian city of Sumy reut.rs/3G9ZFIT

Make it make sense

“BRING HIM HOME” 🔥

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

Using their own words against them.

The Trump administration pays El Salvador President Nayib Bukele's government $6 million to house prisoners it sends to CECOT. That’s the prison where Kilmar Abrego Garcia is currently being held. If the US controls the purse strings, then don’t pay El Salvador until Abrego Garcia comes home.

An estimated 15,000 people are at the Fighting Oligarchy rally with AOC and Bernie Sanders in Los Angeles today. Amazing!

Oh my, this is awful but so true, and unexplainable…

AOC: And his whole presidency began with launching tools for bribery, meme coins to fleece working people and move around money in the dark, extortion settlements from media companies and law firms who gladly pay them

This part

The storm is passing over.

#GVerse via @calltoactivism.bsky.social "Stephanie Ruhle is one of the only voices in the media who tells it like it is and always speaks truth to power. I wish we had another 100 like her. Watch this video. It’s 100% truth."

"Trump cannot assuage the bond market. He cannot convince it that he is 'normal' and should be given the benefit of the doubt. He cannot scare it into submission. He cannot bribe it. The bond market is not like the Supreme Court or Paul Weiss or Columbia."

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

America Last, Putin First

The title of this article was very direct, but the description was spot on… If you saw any of this cabinet meeting you most likely agree. It was difficult to watch, the level of groveling was gross, and embarrassing. The blind sheep in the cabinet remove any semblance of hope or confidence…

Absolutely brutal

SCOTUS: Facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia JUDGE XINIS: Tell me what you're doing to return him DOJ: We need a week XINIS: You have 3 hours DOJ: No There's supposed to be a hearing in 10 minutes.

Say it with us: “constitutional crisis”

BREAKING: China raises tariffs on all US goods from 84% to 125% with effect from April 12
