I haven't been on here in over a week. This is primary because awful shit just won't stop happening. It's hard to get so beaten over the head with it day after day. When does this shit end?

Either the U.S. government *is* able to exert monetary and diplomatic pressure on El Salvador sufficient to produce Abrego Garcia’s release, or it isn’t. The latter would be either a bald-faced lie or a pretty stunning concession of our national impotence. The Vice President should pick one.

Oh look. Another bribery and extortion scheme.

If you love your library, listen up…

Pathetic.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

Just because it’s satire, doesn’t mean it’s not true.

Q: 60 Minutes found 75% of the migrants who were sent to El Salvador do not have criminal records. That true? BONDI: They're not Venezuelan migrants. They're illegal aliens from Venezuela who should not have been in our country Q: So you're confirming they didn't commit a crime? BONDI: *leaves*

Trump has now officially wiped out an entire YEAR of economic gains in four days. But hey, egg prices right?

One of my favorite signs from #handsoff today: "Pete Hegseth - DUI hire"

Wore my favorite shirt from Heather to #HandsOffSTL today.

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy. Third time’s the charm, I guess.

Huge L for the baby billionaire and his barrage of bootlickers

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

We're all miserable and in distress

Cory Booker just passed the 24 hour mark. He's been speaking for a full day straight. 20 more minutes to break Strom Thurmond's record.

Fucking yikes

So close.

PARIS (AP) — French judge rules far-right leader Marine Le Pen is barred from seeking public office with immediate effect

Clark: We elected this so-called strongman who rolls over on his back for Putin and abandons our democratic ally in Ukraine. And we’re sending the vice president and his wife to a contained base in Greenland because the people of Greenland don’t want them outside of it. What are we doing?

Woof

Courts willing to follow the Constitution and the law are the only things standing between us and Stephen Miller’s dystopia right now. And he isn’t happy about it.

Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator. In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

Canada is potentially about to elect a Prime Minister with a PhD in economics from Oxford, Mexico elected someone with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering… Meanwhile, America elected a barely sentient orange turnip. Any Questions?!

Finally, reason

This was always the danger with CU. We're just now seeing how weaponized that decision could be
