Mario had the right to work and report in the U.S. at the time he was arrested for livestreaming a protest in June. He was held for over 100 days in ICE detention, and he did not have the chance to say goodbye to his family in person before being deported.

The White House abruptly terminated a large share of the council members advising the National Endowment for the Humanities, an advisory board to the head of the government’s grantmaking agency, retaining only four Trump appointees.

The President is unwell. PBS comments: “his remarks were rambling and incoherent,” in multiple appearances. The Guardian calls some of his speeches “baffling” and “weirder than ever.” Cambridge analysis says that his statements often require “translation” or annotation to make sense.

Isn’t interesting that for the majority of their years in existence neither the police, border patrol nor FBI wore masks while doing their job dealing with violent criminals, organized crime, murderers, … Are they hiding from vengeance or, much more likely, accountability?

Enjoy some truth about the #TrumpShutdown @markwarner.bsky.social

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat. My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

@skpawlicki.bsky.social was, until the Trump administration canceled the program, working as a Mellon fellow for the National Parks Service. She created the most incredible women's history programming, and now, she's recreated it entirely separately: storymaps.arcgis.com/collections/...

On Monday, RFK posted a rambling video on the HHS X account showing a series of graphs and directly stating that vaccines have had minimal impact on human health and saving lives. Today, in response, we brought our own graphs. We will not let his dangerous nonsense go unanswered.

"You don’t need to be a mental-health professional to see that something’s very seriously off with Trump—particularly after nearly three years of watching his erratic and abnormal behavior in the White House." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

There is no "good faith negotiating" with the modern GOP

In a sane country with competent leadership, the 50 highest-ranking Democrats would call a press conference to denounce what just happened as a threat to the republic and demand Trump's immediate impeachment and removal from office. I don't know he could make his intentions more clear.

#jokesters Good morning folks.

For context Hegseth was basically fired from every job he had, including resigning from his national guard duty because he had a Deus Vult tattoo. He got fired from all his other jobs for drinking and abusing women on the job. Heres a letter his own mother wrote to him about his treatment of women

New in PN: Comey and the lessons of pre-capitulation "Other institutionalists are going to face the kinds of choices and incentives that Comey did. Hopefully they will look at the sad, gutted remnants of his beloved Justice Department and choose a different path."

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

This is true.

Superintendent Ian Roberts of Des Moines Public Schools was detained Friday by federal agents. The reason for his detention was not clear, according to the school district. Roberts’ whereabouts are also, alarmingly, unclear. trib.al/ifiCl4B

🚨 This scene comes to us from Iowa. The man recording this atrocious attack on an innocent man makes it clear that he is a combat veteran, and explains that he is going to video their crimes and he is not to be touched: “I will knock you the fuck out.” 1/2

In a stunning violation of OPSEC, we’ll be announcing to our adversaries when and where all of our top military leaders will be. Doesn’t seem Pete learned much from Signalgate. His incompetence is staggering.

If you wouldn’t hire a convict to run your business, you shouldn’t vote for a criminal to run your country.

ICE is firing pellets and pepper balls at journalists in Broadview outside Chicago today, but they're local journalists so it feels like the national media will not care at all. I hope I'm wrong.

Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue now has 14.3 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube. It would be a shame for you to share it www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

Some of us do.

Just another reminder that Social Security has a fraud rate of 0.00625% which is FAR lower than private sector retirement programs.

Trump‘s designation of antifa as a terrorist organization is a cynical and lawless stunt. My thoughts in Stay Tuned Substack.  open.substack.com/pub/staytune...

Take 30 minutes and watch my analysis of how and why Donald Trump is escalating his authoritarian crackdown on thought, dissent, media and organizations. Then share it with others. youtu.be/4kKtGgh3l5I

Posts claim Charlie Kirk once introduced Kyle Rittenhouse as "a hero to millions." That's true. ✅ www.snopes.com/fact-check/c...

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

For those still keeping track of the lies, now Donald Trump was never an informant for the FBI against Epstein, as confirmed by the head of the FBI. Enough with the lies. Release the files.

Political violence is evil, killing people is evil, a country with more guns in it than people is broken, and what the government is saying about political violence right now being a primarily leftwing phenomenon is factually, statistically untrue. They are using this moment to rewrite history.

Today in 1963, 4 young girls are killed by white racists as a bomb explodes during Sunday morning services in the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, AL: Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robertson & Carol Denise McNair. Hateful thoughts lead to hateful words lead to hateful actions.

🧡 This Latinx Heritage Month, we honor the strength, resilience, and rich cultural legacy of Latinx communities across the country. 🧵

I'm pissed. We all must condemn OUR federal government lowering OUR flag for a fascist that promoted political violence.

So well written, about what really matters- decency!

MAGA 3 days ago: Chicago is about to find out the meaning of WAR MAGA today: the left needs to stop condoning violence

Losers then, losers now.

It's Time to Release the Epstein Files. People who fight this hard to hide something have something to hide. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Not until they’re forced to. They don’t care. The reins need to be physically taken out of their hands.

As concerns that Trump could be deploying National Guard troops as a test run for future election interference, we take a look at one law that will impact stationing federal troops at the polls themselves. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

this is almost certainly under Title 32 authorities (meaning the TX guard will be nominally under TX state control but on a federal mission), meaning the posse comitatus issues that came up in California will not apply. that said, it raises a whole lot of other legal problems

About to go to bed but the man who ran on "NO NEW WARS" just ordered a lethal military strike on a ship in the Caribbean, alleging it is a "narco terrorist vessel," but of course no regard for Congressional due process, no evidence, & no care for potential civilians. Nothing autocratic about this.😐
