oh my god

As of April 10, the USCG has officially directed that any compliance with the anti-trans EO within the service is PAUSED indefinitely, to comply with court orders. This prevents the CG from processing SMs for discharge at this time solely for being trans. content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USD...

Well worth the listen!

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

Trump must think America has had it too good for too long, because now he’s getting the world off the dollar as a reserve currency. Watch Barry Ritholtz explain what that means for us on the LP Podcast: youtu.be/9B3q5-3vjtY

Governor Shapiro has joined Bluesky:

You tell 'em, AOC!

SCOTUS ruled Trump can use the Alien Enemies Act to deport migrants but must give notice and court access. Dissenting justices warned of due process violations. Lower courts are now blocking some deportations. While legal battles continue. Popok explains below. 🔗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNn2...

As a criminal defense attorney, the vast majority of my cases were NOT immigrants. So let's stop pretending immigrants are the problem when there's a 34-count convicted felon sitting in the White House. The hypocrisy is outrageous.

Republicans think slashing and tearing things apart is the solution to everything—especially immigration. But mass deportation isn’t a plan. It’s dangerous—and it leads to innocent U.S. citizens being deported. Just another example of them having no real plan—only concepts of one.

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

60 Minutes could find no criminal records for 75% of the Venezuelans the U.S. sent to a notorious mega-prison in El Salvador. https://cbsn.ws/4clubLP

Many law firms representing federal employees have come under attack. The legal community is pushing back. More than 4,000 legal professionals have signed an open letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, expressing concern over the administration’s actions against law firms.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points. And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

These Republicans will bend over backwards for their overlords—Trump, Musk, whoever’s cutting the checks. They really thought they could come in here and strip federal courts of their power to push an unconstitutional agenda. Not on my watch. I’m here to call out hypocrisy & protect democracy.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Boom 💥

@booker.senate.gov showed what one man can do with one day's worth of hours. Who's up next? All of us. Saturday, 5 April. Mr Booker kicked open the door. Let's go through it together. www.fiftyfifty.one

And again- the soft power losses will take generations to rebuild. www.huffpost.com/entry/usaid-...

This student is a green card holder who committed the heinous crime of exercising her right to free speech on a college campus. She’s 21 and has been in the U.S. since she was 7. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... There are grounds for deporting a green card holder, but this isn’t among them.

Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more? Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. The Russians undoubtedly have it.

The audacity of Elon publicly complaining about “the left” spreading money on the #Wisconsin Supreme Court Race when he’s the one literally trying to BUY it is something else… actl.ink/SCOWI-202502... youtu.be/EnjUw92qLMs?...

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

“This is not what I saw for my career or for my evening, but Paul Weiss’ decision to cave to the Trump administration on DEI, representation, and staffing has forced my hand. We do not have time. It is either now or never, and if it’s never, I will not continue to work here.”

AOC: Alina Habba said, “What intellectual thought.. you were in a bar AOC. Not to have a drink but to serve one.” I don’t care what this woman says about me but I want you to understand that she isn’t just talking about me, she’s talking about all of us.

The truth is, children are far safer in a public bathroom with a transgender person than with a MAGA Evangelical—and it ain't even close. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/we-really-... #justineichorn

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

90% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die from the disease. That's why the medical community is excited about the results of a small trial in which nearly half of the pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease remained relapse-free three years later.

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

@therickwilson.bsky.social has an urgent message for the Dems: SHUT IT DOWN! Watch:

Wow. Rep. Chuck Edwards is getting torn apart at a town hall in Asheville, NC. “I’m a veteran & you don’t give a fuck about me. You don’t get to do this to us!” Edwards orders veteran to be thrown out. We’re approaching a tipping point now. Anger across the country is going to boil over soon.
