Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro says he hasn't heard from Trump since the arson attack “After the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, Pa., last summer, Shapiro quickly condemned the violence and worked with the Trump campaign on the investigation.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

These stories landed today, within 11 hours of each other. This presidential administration is a clear and present danger to the American people.

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.”

38 of the 43. "38 of 43 experts cut last month from boards that review science and research in NIH laboratories are female, Black or Hispanic. "The scientists typically serve five-year terms and were not given a reason for their dismissal..." www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

NEW: 4th Circuit rejects the Trump administration's request to overturn an order requiring it to return Kilmar Abrego García. The court called the administration's actions "shocking" to the "intuitive sense of liberty that Americans...hold dear." From: @jaknutson.bsky.social

Don't you love when the GOP pretends to care about children... ‘In Three Months, Half of Them Will Be Dead’ Elon Musk promised to preserve lifesaving aid to foreign children. Then the Trump administration quietly canceled it. #StopElonMusk #USAID #DOGEscam www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

WTF?

SARA EISEN: What evidence is there of corruption? WARREN: He announces tariff policy, says there's no exceptions, but "I talked to Tim Cook." Really? E: Shouldn't he? W: "Great deal available for Tim Cook" E: It's great for Americans who have to buy iPhones W: No. It's great for one company

If you are one of the people in NC who needs to cure your ballot-NOW IS THE TIME!

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

Bear in mind, Judge Wilkinson is a Reagan appointee who was repeatedly on SCOTUS shortlists. This is both an admonition and a dire warning.

Why is the Supreme Court granting oral argument in the birthright citizenship EO cases a big deal? Well, for one, it’s a case that came to SCOTUS on the so-called shadow docket, a loose collection of “emergency” applications that don’t go through the usual full appellate process. 1/

Supreme Court will review Trump’s attempt to ban birthright citizenship - The Washington Post apple.news/ANUBGUHmYTkO...

The argument in the text is they can’t accomplish their policy goal while following due process (and therefore the standards should flex). That’s a general purpose argument for fascism, not one specific to immigration.

Finally, not out of principle, but out of fear of being branded "Target" by prospective graduate students, stellar academics, and prospective donors, universities are starting to push back...

For real! 😣

You know who should lose their tax exempt status and be taxed as political entities for pushing politics loooooooooong before Harvard? Christian Nationalist megachurches that supported Trump and his current brand of fascism.

The real leaders are the incredible grassroots organizers who continue to make history with their efforts, which grow stronger by the day. We’re honored to play whatever role we can in uplifting these movements—even if corporate media chooses to ignore what's really happening on the ground.

Hey, do you know what you call a guy who never admits a mistake, who becomes President of the United States by never admitting a mistake, who then convinces his entire presidential administration to never admit—let alone correct—any mistake, leading to innocents getting life sentences? A sociopath.

i'm watching a group of conservative law professors insist that there is a grand debate over birthright citizenship that somehow escaped generations of scholarship and only popped into existence after a right-wing president announced an effort to nullify the 14th amendment.

Russia’s MoD falsely claims Palm Sunday strike on Sumy targeted Ukrainian military command meeting The Insider shows why Moscow's statement on the strike that killed 35 people, including two children, and injured around 120 others, doesn’t hold up.

DOOCY: Deporting American citizens to Central American prisons -- is it legal? LEAVITT: Well, it's another question that the president has raised. It's a legal question that the president is looking into.

They tried to burn a US governor and his family and the president of the United States has said nothing.

While hardworking people across this nation pay what they owe, year in and year out, I want you to imagine what’s possible if we get the rich to pay a fair share in taxes. 🧵

🚨REMINDER: This is not the first time DeSantis has been caught funneling state money into political campaigns. We filed three criminal complaints reporting the misuse of millions of taxpayer dollars last year. We're still waiting for answers.

If the President can ignore court orders and send anyone he wants to a prison overseas, we are all at risk. An insult to the Constitution and to our values as Americans. Abrego Garcia must be returned now.

Before weighing in on whether you think that it should be OK to deport American citizens to El Salvador prisons, I want you to consider that we're even discussing it.

All charter airlines should refuse to take people to El Salvador prisons All the people were sent there without due process- without the hearing everyone is entitled to.

www.commondreams.org/news/aoc-dem... I have been preaching this for decades. America is sick of corporate controlled Democrats, they are better than MAGA, but they still suck. We need a party that fights for the working and middle classes, not big business and special interests #ProudBlue #BlueCrew

Thank YOU for coming out! This is exactly why we do this. One objective of these rallies has been for people in red and swing areas to start seeing and finding one another. There is power in numbers. We also bring local organizers onstage to speak and highlight local issues. It’s been great 💜

I'm a combat vet & I own a gun but military style weapons high capacity mags should never be sold to civilians,,When 2A was inactive we had no National guard. It was basically our National guard, Creating national guard makes 2A obsolete, Ban military style weapons Protect our children not guns,

Leavitt: "Abrego Garcia was a foreign terrorist. He is an MS-13 gang member. He was engaged in human trafficking." (The White House hasn't provided evidence for any of these claims ... )
