The court’s brief order drew dissents from conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas. Let's acknowledge the obvious: Thomas and Alito are evil to a degree that even their conservative colleagues cannot match. www.cnn.com/2025/04/18/p...

White House says wrongly deported man is 'never coming back' to US. Translation: I don't care that the Supreme Court ordered me to facilitate his return, I'm ignoring court orders. This is the breaking point of democracy and the Supreme Court must weigh in immediately. Then the GOP must impeach.

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!!!

“President Nausėda and other dignitaries were among those who stood in respect as hearses carried the bodies of the four young Americans...before being flown to the US for burial. Many of the onlookers were in tears.” - AP And when they arrived home? President Trump chose to golf (again) instead.

My MA delegation colleagues and I need answers from HHS and the Trump Administration. LIHEAP is critical for keeping New England families warm in the winter and cool in the summer, especially as energy costs continue to skyrocket. Gutting the federal team that runs it puts lives at risk.

Senate Democrats, time to dump Schumer and the other old farts. Mitch McConnell used every arcane senate rule to neuter Obama as much as he could. And he screwed Obama plenty. One MAGA jackass held up 300-plus military promotions for more than a year. DEMOCRATS, FIGHT LIKE REPUBLICANS. NOW OR NEVER.

Sen. Van Hollen makes a very good point: If all these accusations the Trump administration is making against Abrego Garcia, why have they not made them to the courts?

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

i am fascinated by the outright refusal of people in the professional political commentary class to just consider the possibility that there is no plan and that trump really is a braying idiot with the more acute case of narcissistic personality disorder on record

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring all removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

What an ass. rfk jr is a nothing but a fraud handed a scythe. I'm assuming his next project will be making sunscreen illegal. Whatever he's doing for good health isn't working. He looks awful, sounds like a death rattle & seems worms did hollow out his brain. He's the very picture of unhealthiness.

If you have any doubt about where we are, the DoJ has suspended one of its top attorneys because he admitted in court that the government’s deportation of Abrego Garcia wasn’t supported by any evidence he’d been provided by the administration. You can’t tell the truth if you work for this bunch.

In 1930, 6 months after the Smoot-Hawley tariffs were enacted by President Hoover, world trade decreased by SIXTY PERCENT (60%). Because of policies like the Smoot-Hawley tariffs contributing to the Great Depression in the 1930's, Hoover is considered one of our WORST president's. Sound familiar?
