AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

I would like to point out that the executive branch claiming the power to mete out life/death sentences seems like a separation of powers issue as well

Good way to see the current tariffs, as of literally today, is no tariffs on high value add manufactured goods marketed to middle and upper middle classes. Massive tariffs for cheap consumer items which amount to the biggest economic privilege of working class/middle class life in US.

the transfer to El Salvador of US deportees is, per Pres Bukele, a straight up contract that has “nothing to do w/foreign policy.” The fees we are paying makes their entire prison system “sustainable.” Don’t see how US can make argument that bringing A-G back is some sensitive foreign policy matter

This right here 🔥 “If there was market manipulation, it is a crime. Someone needs to go to jail… I want the documents. I want the Signal chats too, because I don’t trust them — that they weren’t sharing all this information across their Signal chats.” – @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

AOC: The crumbling of our rights and protections. Understand that all of this is what it means and what it feels like to be governed by billionaires. This is what oligarchy feels like.. it is this system that has brought us the most corrupt administration in American history..

This is why the Trump Administration included the following language in its affidavit today: Abrego Garcia is being “detained pursuant to the sovereign, domestic authority of El Salvador.”

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal—convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

There is no explicit Constitutional prohibition against wrongfully deporting the father of a disabled child to a death camp in El Salvador. So it's hard to make sense of what the Supreme Court was trying to say today. by Jonathan Turley

At 5pm, about 11 minutes before the govt filed its new contemptuous response in Abrego Garcia—asserting only that he was being held at CECOT under El Salvador’s “sovereign, domestic” authority—his attys asked Judge Xinis to order discovery & start contempt proceedings. Proposed order: 1/3

Oligarchs didn’t seize power. They absorbed it. You still vote, but elections don’t decide anything. You still have laws, but they don’t constrain those who rule. The government still exists, but it doesn’t govern. Because the coup already happened. #MOG8 heyslick.substack.com/p/the-techna...
