Our government is abducting people without due process and shipping them to a concentration camp in a foreign country to be tortured, left to rot, and die. If you aren't condemning this, then go ahead and tell us how it’s any different from what Hitler was doing in the 1930s and 1940s. (It's not.)

NEW: A federal judge in Massachusetts grants a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration from deporting people to third countries without telling them where they're going and allowing them to raise fears of persecution or torture. The opening lays out the stakes.

He's afraid TSA scanners will turn him gay, so he instead opts to have strange men pat him down? I hate to break it to this guy, but those TSA scanners already completed their mission. 🫡

This isn’t about the markets jumping because Trump hit pause on his tariffs — it’s about who he tipped off beforehand and how they cashed in on insider trades. With Trump, the grift isn’t a side hustle — it is the whole game.

Detaining lawyers and intimidating judges echo the Gestapo's tactics in Nazi Germany. Targeting legal professionals for performing their duties signals a dangerous slide into authoritarianism. This is simply not acceptable. www.ohioemployerlawblog.com/2025/04/amer...

Of course Trump is purposely tanking the stock market. Total economic collapse = national emergency = Trump declaring martial law. The question isn’t whether he is doing this or why, but who will stop him before it’s too late. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Trump is intentionally tanking our economy, either to financially benefit himself, to consolidate power in himself, or both. There is no other explanation that makes sense out of these tariffs.
