'No historical analogy': Voters 'abandoning' Trump 'in record numbers' https://twp.ai/4imbhA

Jon Stewart has a message for his Bluesky critics: 'My bad'

🚨JUST IN: China has just CANCELLED all jet orders from American manufacturer Boeing to in response to President Trump hitting the country with tariffs as high as 145% on Chinese goods. China will also no longer purchase any aircraft-related equipment from American companies.

Listen Chuck, I know your brows are furrowed to the max and if you had some pearls you'd be clutching them the way you clutch on to your Dem "leadership" but...take some action? Are you aware of what Sen Chris Van Hollen is doing? How about you hop on that wagon? Or just step down. That works too.

“The officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to [his] building. One said, ‘No, he's not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, ‘Take him anyway.’” So they did.

What a contrast between how our allies get treated versus little dictators like Bukele. Not a word about him not wearing a suit either, as he petitions the US to expand his country’s mercenary penal colony by sending him more money.

Sanders: A woman is walking down the street, a car stops, and these guys — in plain clothes and masks — grab her, throw her into the car, and take off. That happened in Vermont today. That’s the kind of thing that happens in dictatorships, not in a democracy.

So we had an earthquake today, and something amazing happened…

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

El Salvador won’t return Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Meanwhile, Trump is not only refusing to bring him back—he is lying about the Supreme Court ruling compelling him to do so.

NEW: The Supreme Court is creating a due process gap through the redistribution of rights. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-suprem...

“I was just following orders” was not a defense at Nuremberg. And it won’t be a defense in the future here.

Last one I really believe Trumpkov is driving us to ruin As part and parcel of his Revenge Tour The GOP cowards are scared of an orange faced senile old man They all suck truly

The refusal to provide people due process before shipping them off to foreign prisons is criminal and intolerable. It must not be normalized. Everyone who believes in justice and America needs to speak up now.

Minnesota is a top state for health care, thanks in part to Mayo Clinic.   Now they’re building a $5 billion expansion in Rochester where the lifesaving health care innovations of the future are going to happen.   Inspiring to see the progress today.

"I think it's only a matter of time before [a state attorney general] figures out how to file state kidnapping charges against those that are abducting people who are in the country legally..." says former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley.

They didn’t just send Abrego Garcia “back to El Salvador”, they sent him to a fucking torture prison. They didn’t send him “back to where he was from.” They sent him to his death. They cannot prove he was a “terrorist”. They took him by “mistake.” And they do not fucking care.

Four R senators and four R House members could announce they're caucusing with the Dems for now, and will vote for Schumer for Majority Leader and Jeffries for Speaker, because the threat to the rule of law is dire. Meanwhile, they'll work with Democrats to construct guardrails against dictatorship.

Our dystopian reality has outpaced grim hyperbole.

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

If Stephen Miller can lie about Abrego Garcia and his case on national TV, he can do it in federal court under oath. Judge Xinis should demand his appearance, question him under oath, then jail him for Contempt when he commits Perjury. This lawless administration has to be subjected to rule of law.

At least one US president cares to denounce this attack.

“The European Commission is issuing burner phones and basic laptops to some US-bound staff to avoid the risk of espionage, a measure traditionally reserved for trips to China.” We are now viewed as a security threat, to our once closest allies. Enraging & heartbreaking. www.ft.com/content/20d0...

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

Jeffries: "So many of these people are crooks, liars, and frauds, and Marjorie Taylor Greene is of course exhibit A ... we do need to change the law so that sitting members of Congress cannot trade stock. Period. Full stop."

What part of "get out of Ukraine" does Putin not comprehend?

"Stay in the fight. No matter what he throws at you, remember—we’ve got your back. Remember, you are part of the biggest pro-democracy community in the world, and we look out for each other. You are not in this alone." ~ @meiselasb.bsky.social

“When Donald Trump says something depraved, we should believe it, … because there is no limit to his moral depravity. … This is a war on due process. He wants … to dictate the fates of individuals, including American citizens, without … court[s].”

Unless you're 45/47 and committed your crimes in broad daylight... Hell, even his criminal ass got due process.

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

UPDATE: An hour late, the only substantive update from DOJ is a link to Bukele's Oval Office comments. Still no response to the judge's questions. Spells Kilmar's first name wrong. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Guy who claims to be a master dealmaker can’t even strike a deal with one of his closest allies to secure the return of a man he mistakenly sent to prison?

Deporting America citizens to a foreign gulag seems…dictatory.

Warren: But this also happens to be a case where it’s not just the DOJ and SEC with jurisdiction. State attorneys general all across the country have power here too. That’s why a group of us just sent a letter to every state attorney general, urging them to launch independent investigations.

Senator Chris Van Hollen has requested an urgent meeting with President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador to address the situation involving Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man who was “mistakenly”deported from the United States to a prison in El Salvador.

What do you mean there’s no way to get him back?!?!?! AS EASY AS IT WAS TO PUT HIM ON A PLANE AND SEND HIM THERE IS AS EASY AS IT IS TO BRING HIM BACK?! This is a constitutional CRISIS where this rogue “President” is DEFYING the Supreme Court! BRING ABREGO GARCIA BACK NOW!!!!

AOC: When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror

pretty crazy watching the american president on live tv in the oval office planning the construction of concentration camps in a foreign country to house americans

Talking about Trump ...

We're living in an authoritarian regime. The MAGA coup was successful. People still aren't waking up and seeing what's directly in front of them.

Pam Bondi: “That’s up to El Salvador if they want to return him…If they wanted to return him, we would facilitate it, meaning provide a plane.” Nayib Bukele: “How can I return him to the U.S.? Like, I smuggle him into the U.S.?” No, you put him on the plane the AG just said the US would provide!
