"Remigration" ties straight back to Germany... The term was exposed during news coverage of a meeting between right-wing extremists and Alternative for Germany (AfD) officials in 2023 who used remigration to push an exclusionary agenda Now the term is being used by U.S. Homeland Security 🤦‍♀️

Integrity is vital at this point in history 👏👏👏 "The nation’s military and defense journalists exited the Pentagon in unison Wednesday afternoon, having had their accreditation revoked after refusing to agree to the Defense Department’s new restrictions on their newsgathering activities"

Woman still in jail after violent arrest at ICE protest—for playing "Ghostbusters" on her clarinet. She was mysteriously transported to jail across state lines—husband not told until 9 hours later. "We can't even see her... Our 3-year-old has no idea when we'll see mommy again" Portland, Oregon

After weaponizing the Justice Department to go after his enemies, Trump now plans to turn the IRS on them as well. This is one of the abuses of power cited in the July 1974 articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon.

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress. Everything else is noise and bluster. This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

Mike Johnson called us back from July 4 recess on 7/3 so he could gut Americans’ healthcare in the Big Ugly bill. Since then, he has only had the House in session for 19 of the subsequent 104 days. That’s how we ended up here.

That’s $5 billion more than the entire annual USAID budget. All to one country. To rescue one friend of the president’s.

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

“But I didn’t get elected for what we’re doing“ Trump goes on to thank Stephen Miller for (doing what Trump didn’t get elected to do) and tells him to come up & “explain his true feelings” #TheApprentice #RacistsFascistsIsolationistsRobberBaron season.

Rep. Greg Casar: “There are more mentions of Donald Trump in the Epstein Files than there are House Republicans here in Washington D.C. today.” Casar is on 🔥 and this is exactly the call-out we need. #TrumpsShutdownDragsOn

My wig and chainsaw got me $40 billion from the Whitehouse!

A royal pervert. A fucking monster.

Taken together with impoundments, this would break everything. The president is claiming the power to not spend money he doesn't want to and now also to spend money where it's not allowed. And SCOTUS might say no one has standing to stop him. That would make him an appropriations king.

The trial of Sydney Reid, who was initially charged w/felony assault for videotaping ICE, then charged w/misdemeanor, and whose case has been beset by all sorts of discovery problems since, has finished. Judge Sooknanan threw out allegation involving one of two "victims" (on same assault charge).

Did Louisiana ask for plantations too? Might as well have.

Listen to this nurse: when families can’t afford food or rent, doubling their health premiums will push them off insurance. Communities will suffer. People will die. And what did Republicans do? They shut down the government and took a vacation. #TrumpsShutdownDragsOn

U.S. Judge Said She Will Likely Block Trump Administration From Mass Layoffs During Government Shutdown

Reading this thread, it appears that a Supreme Court majority is ready to completely nuke what's left of the Voting Rights Act and let the South gerrymander Black voters out of representation.

Young GOP thugs drool over Hitler, praise rape, call for violence, plot gas chambers & sling n-words like candy. Leaked chats expose the fascist rot in Trump's party. These aren't jokes -they're the future. Wake up, America! Time for the mass exodus from the GOP! substack.com/home/post/p-...

The Washington Post says 22 million people are set to lose healthcare subsidies by the end of the year with 80 percent of them living in states Trump won. Talk about reaping what you sow. #ProudBlue

We live in something closer to what we would call a state of generalized psychosis: a social landscape where symbolic authority has fractured, shared reality is unstable, and appeals to common norms routinely fail to hold any weight. In this environment, shame has lost its footing. trib.al/5sLchu2

Trump has mostly focused cuts on what he calls "Democrat programs" - but even when he lays off employees in places like Homeland Security, it is about settling scores. So, CISA is cut, including the unit that focuses on cyber attacks on infrastructure. Why? donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-shutdo...

There is a bunch of unprecedented stuff about this shutdown - turning public resources like airports or govt employees into partisan tools, the blatant lying about what is happening - but the worst is using the shutdown to engage in ideological targeting. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-shutdo...

New, from me: I break down all that is happening with the shutdown. Shutdowns are bad. But only Trump and Russ Vought are brave enough to ask: what if shutdowns aren’t painful enough? How can we use this as an opportunity to target our political enemies? 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-shutdo...

"we use AI to detect cancer (not to write essays)" amused me as a tagline in the U's daily news brief.

Currently on a flight to Japan watching a Pentagon Assistant Press Secretary (Riley Podleski) work on a document in the open on her laptop. She spent the last hour copy and pasting headlines from articles critical of the Administration’s hostility toward the 1st amendment.

The end is very close now but I've known him so long I knew he wouldn't want to just sit on a drip in the hospital. Life is for living even at the very end ♥️

OK look "I love Hitler" sounds bad but YOU try praising Yankees starter Cam Schlittler through autocorrect.

Trump using government shutdown for political leverage to cut programs he calls egregious and socialist. Following canceled infrastructure and climate projects, new list of cuts targeting Democrat initiatives expected as White House signals more layoffs are imminent for federal workers.

A prominent foreign affairs analyst and senior State Department adviser was arrested over the weekend and charged with illegally storing sensitive government records after federal agents found more than 1,000 pages of secret documents at his home, the Justice Department said Tuesday.

“I think the federal basic income program could be a nation-building program.” We've seen study after study showing universal basic income works -- cheaper, more effective than current income programs. Doesn't disincentivize people from working. Reduces crime. Improves health. UBI now.

Our dim President illegally destroyed a law that was helping people (including his own supporters) access the internet affordably and safely because said law had the word "equity" in it the press barely covered it, and when they did, they parroted his claims the law was "illegal" and "racist"

The DHS film crew is making slick videos to convince the American people that ICE agents are ripping the "worst of the worst" off our streets. But they're crafting and creating a story that is divorced from the reality on the ground. - Jacob Soboroff, MSNBC

The rule of law means future accountability must always remain possible. DHS is implying that accountability itself is illegitimate - a stunning rejection of democratic norms.

“On any given week, the administrator of CMS could speak for a few minutes before a shirtless Russell Brand calls in from what appears to be a bathtub, or a former member of The Pussycat Dolls argues that the COVID-19 vaccine destroyed her ability to dance.” www.notus.org/health-scien...

“A clarinet player was arrested after playing her instrument to the tune of the ‘Ghostbusters’ theme song outside of a Portland ICE facility…”

OK, the cut them off. No more drugs.

Today the GOP Supreme Court will hear a case focused on the Voting Rights Act. We can expect the GOP justices to strike down what is left of the law because that is what the GOP wants. The GOP's goal is a return to whites only political power. That is what MAGA is about.

Retail costs fell throughout 2024 and every single MSM story on it was “yes but” Retail costs rose throughout 2025 and every single MSM story on it was “wait it’s complicated” This is what is meant by a basic asymmetry in American political culture

Trump has cancelled $18B of spending in blue states. He fired more than 4,000 federal employees the same day he sent $20B to Argentina. He is propping up the government of the guy on the left, while firing government officials working for the guy on the right. But those employees also work for us!

They’re freaking out!!! Trump’s cabinet secretaries falsely claim Dems are keeping the government closed because of the “No Kings” mass protests, and Mike Johnson calls it the “hate America rally.” The truth is: we love America, but we hate tyrants. That’s why we’re doing this. See you Saturday.

Speaker Johnson, you ready to swear me in?
