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.

I’m ready to do whatever it takes to defeat this fascist regime via non-violent means. Are you? Buckle up:

U.S. intelligence contradicts Trump’s justification for mass deportations. The determination is the most comprehensive assessment to date undercutting the president’s rationale for deporting suspected gang members without due process. #Deportations wapo.st/4ipRoOd

This is the most joyful day that ever I saw in my pilgrimage on earth. - Donald Cargill #Quote #qotd #inspiration #NewDayNewChance brainyquote.com/s/a_38677

The mystery of government is not how Washington works but how to make it stop. - P. J. O'Rourke #Quote #qotd #inspiration #NewDayNewChance brainyquote.com/s/a_27d40

Let’s be clear… The data shows Biden deported more people than Trump—BUT with due process. Trump’s authoritarian regime is snatching people off the streets without IDs, harassing U.S. citizens with Hispanic last names, and showing up at schools to intimidate children.

This video Paige and I did explaining what happened in court today is going viral. Thank you for all the nice comments and to the thousands of new subscribers. I hope you find it useful. youtu.be/5HRmolBoM_k

Over 70 mostly former, some current university/college presidents support Harvard in fighting the Trump administration fortune.com/2025/04/15/h...

The Trump administration has quietly doubled down on its decision to stop sending emergency food to children starving in Bangladesh, Somalia, and other countries. Without urgent intervention, these children might die within months, @hana-kiros.bsky.social reports.

JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)

I love to see it—universities across the country linking arms and saying hell no to Trump’s authoritarian assault on higher ed. An attack on one is an attack on all—and they’ll do whatever is necessary to defend each other. The alliance is growing. But the clock’s ticking.

I just met with the Vice President of El Salvador as we fight for the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I’m speaking to the press now with the latest on our efforts. Tune in here:

•••••BREAKING••••• Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen just completed a presser in El Salvador. •Sen. Van Hollen made it abundantly clear that the Trump administration has repeatedly lied about Kilmar Abrego García. Indisputable truths: Abrego García was in the U.S. legally, he has absolutely no gang…

. @padilla.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov Has Bill Essayli been Senate confirmed as US Attorney CDCA?

She’s a perfect fit for Trump’s "best people.” She’s stupid, and in charge of the Dept. of Education. A1, AI, what’s the difference? www.kron4.com/news/bay-are...

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it. Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids. Don’t let this go!!!

Trump’s revenge tour continues. After going after James in a late night rant on Social media, he has the Federal Housing Authority asking the DOJ to investigate James for falsifying records. It is passed time to impeach. This has to stop. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/Afc0xhFi6Qte...

Former 2-term CA Assemblyman Bill Essayli, a MAGA chucklehead, is now US Attorney for the counties of LA, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Ventura, Santa Barbara, & San Luis Obispo He's a grad of #105 ranked Chapman Law www.justice.gov/usao-cdca/pr...

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1864: Robert Blake becomes the first African American to receive the Medal of Honor. Blake was serving as a steward to Lieutenant Commander Richard Worsam Meade on the USS Marblehead but helped man one of the guns in a firefight with Confederate forces. /1

Republican Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, is the quintessential ‘Didn’t Earn It’ hire.* *post written by A1

Today I stood with the nurses of @nationalnurses.bsky.social and veterans at the San Diego VA to say no to Trump’s reckless staffing cuts. We won't back down from this fight.

•••CONSUMER ALERT••• Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell: Expect higher inflation and slower economic growth as a direct result of Trump’s tariffs — which are “significantly larger than anticipated.”

Trump just signed a completely unnecessary memo barring undocumented immigrants from getting Soc. Security benefits, when they're ALREADY BARRED from getting them! 🔥WHAT TRUMP DOESN'T WANT VOTERS TO KNOW: Undocumented immigrants quietly pay billions into Social Security & receive no benefits. 1/2

Judge Boasberg finds there is probable cause to pursue criminal contempt charges against the Trump administration officials who disobeyed his order to stop the deportation of immigrants to El Salvador If the Supreme Court covers for them now, it will be a severe blow to democracy for years to come

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 2018: Rapper Kendrick Lamar is awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Music for his album DAMN., for “capturing the complexity of modern African American life.” It was the first time the award went to a musical work outside classical and jazz.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

🚨BREAKING: Judge finds flying migrants to El Salvador after orders not to "demonstrate a willful disregard for its Order, sufficient for the Court to conclude that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt." Visit www.democracydocket.com for full details and analysis.

Senator Chris Van Hollen, Democrat of Maryland, tried and failed on Wednesday to secure a meeting in El Salvador with Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, an immigrant and Maryland resident who was mistakenly deported by the Trump administration and remains imprisoned. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/u...

The U.S. Education Department's Office for Civil Rights investigates discrimination in schools. It recently lost more than 40% of its staff.

Quick point. Congress can use the spending fight in September (remember Chuck Schumer surrendered till then) to prevent a single dollar from being used to house prisoners in El Salvador.

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

There is a distinct possibility that Stephen Miller is sentenced to prison and becomes the Giuliani of Trump 2.0.

I’m thinking about how this might play out: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...
