I lost my job, my kids have measles, and I had to drive my parents 200 miles to a Social Security office, but at least I know that immigrants are getting sent to torture prisons in El Salvador.

I asked an international human rights lawyer recently what red lines to watch for - he said, “when people start to disappear.” Well…https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/26/us/ice-tufts-student-detained-rumeysa-ozturk.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

Now he wants to pay his brownshirts. But with your money, not his.

I would like to nominate Maxwell Smart for national security advisor.

This is horrible. This is why due process matters.👇

Former FBI agent John Buma, a whistleblower who accused the bureau of suppressing his investigative work on topics including Rudy Guiliani's ties to suspected Russian agents, was arrested yesterday in New York and charged with disclosure of confidential information, per an FBI spokesperson.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

BREAKING NEWS!! Kim Jong Un once played the violin. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/19/a...

"The idea that the America should think about Canada the same way Russia thinks about Ukraine—as a barely distinct neighbor, essentially an extension of itself—is at least four years old. And the person who proposed that analogy was Putin."

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

holy shit this question at the Rep. Chuck Edwards town hall 🔥🔥🔥

I’m calling for new leadership in the Democratic Party. So many democrats want to do the right thing, but leadership is stopping them with the unspoken threat of refusing to give them leadership positions down the road. NEW DEM LEADERSHIP NOW!! #NewDemLeadership

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

holy shit -- Trump was reading from a literal Tesla sales pitch, complete with pricing, during his White House event with Elon Musk. (Andrew Harnik/Getty)

All roads lead to Russia.

Remember when the Trump Administration said they were not trying to fire air traffic controllers? They were lying.

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933. I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

In case you forgot how much of the new Republican brand leans into homo-eroticism …

This is perfect. No notes

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

Even if a new team normal displaced the entire team crazy – including Trump and Musk– tomorrow, the damage to certain areas would take months or years to repair, or would be irreparable. Foreign policy, public health, and federal law enforcement all ravaged beyond quick repair.

Looking beautiful Time Square. 🇺🇦

Trump/Zelensky meeting was a disaster. The betrayal of Ukraine is confirmed. Doug Lute, @rosabrooks.bsky.social, and @mpolymer1.bsky.social join @djrothkopf.bsky.social on Deep State Radio to break down this train wreck of a meeting. youtu.be/sqebS2aRyGc podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

I don't have much time to look at the KGB Dump connection, because IRS! But this is kinda weird. And supports the Manchurian theory.

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

The Peace Plan: Get the fuck out of our country. #StandWithUkraine

Holy cow are we screwed. Addicts and sociopaths running our country. Lord, help us.

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

Dear business owners that voted for Trump, You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.

This is a picture of the Ottoquechee River in Hartland, Vermont fuckwit

all you people who told us to calm down can go fuck yourselves
