Tennessee Republicans are pushing a vile bill to bar undocumented kids from public schools, directly attacking Plyler v. Doe. If this passes, it could spark a costly legal fight and drag the Supreme Court into yet another disgraceful battle. How much further will they go?

You guys Elon Musk appointed the head of the IRS and President Trump didn’t even know about it.

The new page emphatically promotes a theory that many scientists question. Meanwhile, basic information about COVID testing and vaccines has disappeared.

Trump's new "Schedule F" rule strips vital protections from 50,000 federal workers. If they don’t unquestioningly toe his MAGA line, they’re out. Trump can't run his own businesses without crashing them or grifting them to death, and now he's trying to do the same with the US government.

DOGE staffer Gavin Kliger reportedly terrorized CFPB employees, making them work 36 hours straight while screaming at anyone not fast enough to send mass layoff notices. This comes after Trump's illegal mass firings, which a judge slammed as unlawful and ordered to be reversed.

Showing this clip to the cashier next time I’m at the grocery store and explain to them that they must be making some kind of mistake.

🚨Here’s a list of just a few of the major pieces of misinformation Kennedy shared about autism🚨

there is way too much going on

Van Hollen: And it's also important that people understand this case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.

"Whoever thought this was cute at the time may be less giddy when this becomes evidence of intent to disobey a court order."

Trump’s Treasury stooge tried to meddle in IRS audits to protect cronies like Mike Lindell. This corrupt garbage—pressuring civil servants to shield “high profile friends” while purging agency leadership—is how Trump turns institutions into weapons for himself.

Stephen Miller is in charge of the executive branch.

Trump team reveals lack of expertise – and patience – as it threatens to abandon Ukraine peace talks

the buck stops anywhere besides at the confused old man's desk

the tourism industry is going to get gored this summer www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

It’s important to note this is not and was never about citizenship. It’s about removing diversity and dissent to authoritarian power. Every man denied due process deserves basic rights because they are human. But remember that they are just the first and no one is safe: www.npr.org/2025/04/16/n...

We didn’t simply deport an undocumented immigrant. We sent a man to prison without a trial.

“People are dropping like flies”: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau begins laying off a vast majority of its staff

Personally I think the government should be *against* death

A court record claims that the teenager was detained by immigration agents who accused him of being a member of Tren de Aragua after seeing a Facebook photo of him featuring what they alleged to be a pistol — but was actually a water gun.

BREAKING: Kaitlan Collins just blindsided former ICE director Tom Homan on live TV over his MS‑13 smear of Abrego Garcia: “But I don’t see any of that made in a court filing. I haven’t seen any of that in court, not the court of public opinion here.”

‘If I die, I want a loud death’: Gaza photojournalist killed by Israeli airstrike

Kaitlan Collins to Homan: "You say everything was done right here and I heard Stephen Miller in the Oval Office also argue he was lawfully deported. But this administration has admitted in court that he was mistakenly deported, that he should not have been deported."

Weird coming from the guy who historians rank much lower...

Adam Kinzinger calls out Trump’s Cabinet for backing Putin over democracy: "Ukraine is winning. Trump wants them to lose." He slams GOP figures like Rubio for pushing policies that would "rescue" Russia as its war machine collapses. "Let that sink in."

Aix-Marseille University’s “Safe Place for Science” program has received 300 applications from US researchers seeking refuge from the US govt’s academic crackdown. Former French President Hollande has called for a “scientific refugee” status to protect these researchers facing political threats.

The VA looks like it is changing course on a plan that would have threatened the privacy of veterans receiving mental health care via telehealth, according to documents obtained by NPR.

The Trump administration and DOGE tried to cut more than 1,400 employees at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. An employee union and other groups are fighting to keep the regulator intact. www.wired.com/story/cfpb-t...

Mutual trust and respect used to be important American values, and that’s why today we’re going back to the honor system on whether there is shit in your food

‘It was very overwhelming’: wife of Kilmar Ábrego García speaks out

Trump's MAGA voter base still doesn't regret their choice, even as the economy crashes & they suffer. They’re too busy enjoying Trump’s vendetta against everyone they hate—immigrants, progressives, & anyone who doesn’t fit their narrow worldview. Their pain is OK, as long as others are hurting more.

Still wondering why there aren't articles of impeachment in the house with a rolling list of High Crimes and Misdemeanors growing hourly with 213 co-sponsors.

“How will our children survive if they are considered a tragedy?” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/w...

Trump targets immigrants & activists, labeling them “criminals” or “terrorists” to justify violence. The reality is that most aren’t even close to being offenders. This is about silencing dissent & dehumanizing anyone who challenges his agenda. No one is safe from this authoritarian overreach.

Where did the $6 million for El Salvador come from? It wasn't Congress.

using your daughter's murder to provide sympathetic cover to the lawless deportation of a completely different, non-law-breaking person is deeply, deeply cruel

Is anyone REALLY advocating for porn in kindergarten classes, tho???

so weird how like 90% of these shooters believe the same racist nonsense. anyway I guess we'll never know what motivates them!

Trump just handed his grifting scammer base a massive gift: firing 90% of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. 1,500 employees axed, leaving the agency crippled and unable to protect Americans from fraud. This is exactly what Trump and Musk want—an open door for scams and corporate abuse.
