🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.” WOW. Planes in air must turn around. A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

Trump’s FBI Moves to Criminally Charge Major Climate Groups... The Trump administration is targeting climate organizations that received a Biden-era grant... https://newrepublic.com/post/192660/trump-fbi-charge-climate-organizations

Let this sink in—the head of the EPA has now labeled climate science as “religion”, and reframed the purpose of the EPA to “lower the cost of buying a car… and running a business”—the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY! That’s where we are now. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/c...

🚨Sen. Ruben Gallego: “These cuts will cause Veterans to die. There’s no denying that.” Trump and Musk are gutting VA care, firing Veterans, and throwing them aside like they don’t matter. This isn’t policy—it’s a disgrace. And some won’t survive it.

These are bold and wild allegations from the FBI, which is moving to criminalize organizations like Habitat for Humanity for receiving grants from the EPA. In a court filing, Citibank disclosed that it had been directed by the FBI to freeze the bank accounts of these groups.

HAPPENING NOW: Police arrested hundreds of protestors including Jewish elders, descendants of Holocaust survivors, and students, dragging them out of a sit-in at Trump Tower by their arms and legs. Jews say: Free Mahmoud, Free Palestine!

Rep John Larson - Connecticut:

Worth a listen to what Al Green says after he was removed from the chamber.

Just read this graf. Share it with people you know who don’t pay attention to politics or news.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

"Musk and DOGE Might Soon Have Access to the Most Lucrative Defense-Contract Database of All" A scoop for Zeteo from @attackerman.bsky.social on how the USXports database could be used by Elon Musk to undercut competitors to his SpaceX in the defense sector. Read/share/subscribe:

Trump is blocking the Associated Press from the Oval Office. Rather than stand up for freedom of the press, the rest of legacy media is taking advantage of AP's absence. When this inevitably leads to AP cutbacks, the same legacy media will lament the plight of media decline.

FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States

If you’ve taken the oath to serve, today would be a good day to honor it.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

We will have victories and setbacks, good days and bad. We must understand that this will not be over in one election or with the defeat of any one candidate. This is the fight of our generation, and it will take time. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

It was all in Project 2025…

Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

Billionaires aren't paying their Medicare and Net Investment Income Taxes. They're writing off their private jets and yachts. They're not being taxed on capital gains. This is what it looks like when billionaires pay millionaires to write our tax laws. www.propublica.org/article/bill...
