Poorly photoshopped tattoo pictures. Fake margaritas added to a photo op. A demand letter accidentally sent to Harvard. Nonsensical tariff stats and formulas. We’re losing our democracy to the dumbest mother fuckers ever.

Only one of these men has a criminal conviction—and his name isn’t Kilmar Garcia!

Love this one

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Senator Van Hollen’s commitment to the Abrego Garcia case isn’t performative. Wearing an overnight maxi pad on your ear after an “assassination attempt” is performative.

When you force people to foreign incarceration for the rest of their life without due process... that's not deportation. That's human trafficking. And it's not a prison. It's a concentration camp.

I'm sorry. Why are we forgetting that a court ordered the plane to come back before it even got to El Salvador? Why are we forgetting that EVERY SINGLE ONE of those people kidnapped and sentenced to life in prison in a fucking foreign country deserved DUE PROCESS?

True facts are true

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

INCREDIBLE opinion by Wilkinson refusing to stay Judge Xinis's orders in the Abrego Garcia case, condemning DOJ's arguments as "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Murray Osorio PLLC, counsel for Kilmar Abrego Garcia: "If the government believes there is a legitimate case to be made, it should present that case in a court of law … not on social media. But that cannot happen until Mr. Abrego Garcia is returned to the United States and given full due process."

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

It is really bothering me (understatement) that the message is “bring back that one innocent guy” and not “WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK SHUT DOWN THIS WHOLE OPERATION IMMEDIATELY.”

A plea. Can we stop declaring this a “constitutional crisis?” It’s bigger. It’s a crisis about fundamental American ideals and structures. “Constitutional crisis” makes it sound like an abstract lawyerly crisis It’s bigger.

The possibility of abduction by a sovereign and imprisonment abroad is one criterion that separates democracies from dictatorships. The Declaration of Independence called the British king tyrannical for transporting Americans, “beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offenses.”

I Agree! You?😊💙

There have been important House votes lost by a single vote while two Dem seats are vacant due to deaths, one at the age of 77 and the other at 70 who ran after a cancer diagnosis. "Too old" is absolutely valid reason enough, in and of itself, to challenge someone. It always has been.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Cohen: Take MeidasTouch Network. They’re beating Joe Rogan, they’re beating Fox, they’re beating the lame stream news. So when there’s a march, all you have to do is contact the Meiselas brothers — next thing you know, you’ve got ten million people showing up. That’s an army.

🚨Attention Members of the DC Bar🚨 Ballots went out today for key positions in the DC bar. Please vote for: Diane Seltzer for President Amanda Molina for Treasurer Note: Seltzer is running against Pam Bondi's brother. Get your ballot and vote ASAP.

U fuckers vote for the save act! U r done ! Voted out

An innocent man was “mistakenly” taken and sent to a foreign prison. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 he must be brought home — yet he’s still there. Every day this administration shows just how vile and lawless it remains. Bring him home!

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what that racist rapist Trump did on January 6th.

Fed up of this hypocrisy!

I used to select Dem primary candidates based on policy. Now I will aggressively try to destroy any Dem who says "we need to look forward not backward" and fervently support anyone who says "I will see these motherfuckers prosecuted and jailed if it's the last thing I do."

Putin has programmed Trump to create chaos over many years but what he hadn’t anticipated was such strong support for Ukraine, an emboldened Europe and worldwide condemnation and alienation of trumps America! Go fuck the both of you! 🖕

I've had folks ask me if they should still shop at Target. You gotta do what's right for you. I haven't shopped at Target in well over a year, ever since they removed Pride merch. Folks may call that a boycott if they wish. I call it giving my money only to businesses who value me as a customer.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

Most days I still can't believe Americans elected a fake real estate tycoon moron game show host POTUS once. And then after he incited an insurrection and was convicted of 34 felonies we elected him again and now even more sycophants suck his mushroom dick daily and pretend he's some kind of genius.

Mike Johnson just voted to cut Medicaid. Nearly 40% of his district relies on Medicaid.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made. -FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Deporting people means a judge signs a final deportation order, and the person is returned to their own country. What we are doing is kidnapping a person off the street and paying for them to be held indefinitely in concentration camps outside US courts' jurisdiction. 100% deliberately extralegal.

So which Dem Senators are gonna betray us in the Screw American Voters Everywhere (SAVE) Act? The fact that we have beg any Dem in Congress not to vote for this is insane. They should be telling the GOP to fuck off on instinct. THIS would be the time for Cory Booker to filibuster for real.

How low the bar has fallen since January 20th🤦🏾‍♀️

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has challenged Speaker Mike Johnson to a one-on-one debate on the House floor over the budget resolution. Whaddya wanna bet Temu Moses is too chicken to do it? 🍿

I'm not going to stop saying this. We need to stop calling it "deporting." It may not always be fair or humane, but deportation has a process. And it means you're sent back to where you came from. These people are being trafficked and sold to slave prisons. Not deported.

ELECTION RESULT: A team of city council members in Rolla, Missouri, have been pushing anti-LGTB policies, including a ban on drag shows and book censorship. Voters just ousted all three of these city councilors who were running for reelection, backing candidates backed by a local LGBT group.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.
