NEW: In a meeting with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, the Trump administration said it will not return a Maryland father erroneously sent to a Salvadoran prison, despite a Supreme Court order requiring his return. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social

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.

This once again confirms the prisoners are in El Salvador prisons at our behest and under our control.

Harvard is not bending the knee to Donald Trump and his administration: "The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor any other private university can allow itself to be taken over by the federal government....

Guys: This is the second most important thing to come out of the meeting.

Hope BlueSky will remain true to its values unlike Meta youtu.be/i9T2RKmWg80?...

No. You’ve been watching stock market fraud.

okay now that you all have gotten a taste of America's rational and predictable new trade policy, everyone who wants to build your new factories here just form an orderly line

Hell to the Hell NO! #removeRump #traitor #insurrectionist #34countfelon #adjudicatedrapist

If the agent of an embittered KGB officer somehow won the US presidency and entered into the office bent on destroying the USA in its national influence, network of alliances, and the American people’s quality of life, what would he be doing differently?

Just for fun…

BREAKING: Judge McFadden has *granted * the AP’s injunction against the White House’s ban on access to the Oval Office and East Room.

Is this who we are? 😳🇺🇸

Yep! Great perspective!

Quite literally whitewashing the purpose of the Underground Railroad www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

If folks had voted for the Black lady who wanted to tax the rich and give everyone else a tax cut, we wouldn’t be having this problem. This guy nails it. 🔥

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

THIS. #HandsOff

Salt Lake City showed up

Protesters in the small, conservative town of Warrenton, Virginia showed up at the Hands Off! protest! Love to see it!!

Just got to the Mall and saw this sign, which no one is going to top. #HandsOff2025

Mallory McMorrow spoke these powerful words in 2022. Worth watching again today. youtu.be/iLWo8B1R0MY?....

Why else was DOGE created?

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

Breaking: Cory Booker has officially delivered the longest Senate floor speech in US history, surpassing Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against the Civil Rights Act.

I want Corey Booker for my senator! I got stuck with Josh Hawley. I just called him and told him so.
