Trump says children just need to live with fewer toys because of his tariffs: “Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls.”

Please highlight this story. ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago. kfor.com/news/local/w...

Thank you Greyhound!

Did you vote for cruelty? www.reuters.com/world/americ...

📌Hold on, goddammit: If tariffs are so good for our economy, why doesn't the White House want us to see what they are actually costing us??????

At a hundred days into his presidency, Joe Biden had a 52% approval rating. As we near the hundred days mark in his second term, Donald Trump has a 39% approval rating. Here's how those numbers were framed by the media:

They’re arresting judges now

24 April 1894 | A Polish Jew, Szlama Feigenblat, was born in Chęciny. A saddler. In #Auschwitz from 30 January 1942. No. 26172 He perished in the camp on 12 March 1942.

What - and I cannot stress this enough - the ACTUAL FUCK??? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Absolutely chilling… “Many young researchers say they are having to choose between staying in the United States and staying in science.” I’ve been sounding the alarm about a potential brain drain. But it’s no longer just a possibility. It’s already happening. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/03/o...

They scream about Socialism while their roads, hospitals, and schools are basically on a Federal IV drip.

I'm listening to argument in Mahmoud v. Taylor, the conservative Christian attack on books with LGBTQ characters in elementary schools, and it is impossible to overstate how contemptuous Sam Alito is of the idea of treating LGBTQ people with respect. He is a rank homophobe. Nancy Mace in a robe.

22 April 1980 | Polish man, Jan Liwacz, passed away. A blacksmith. In #Auschwitz from 20 June 1940. No. 1010 Liberated in Ebensee. He supervised the creation of the 'Arbeit macht frei' sign, placed over the main camp gate. Watch a clip about its history: youtu.be/p9aBOp28H5Q

Good job team America www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

🚫 In the afternoon of January 6, Russia shelled Kherson, killing people. 🚫 On April 21, 2022, Putin ordered the assault on Azovstal to be called off, but Russia continued to bomb the plant with high-explosive bombs as if nothing had happened.

Seeing the contrast between Sen. Van Hollen's actions today in El Salvador, and Sen. Murkowski's comments about fear of retaliation from a comfortable chair at a closed interview is... something.

These stories landed today, within 11 hours of each other. This presidential administration is a clear and present danger to the American people.

There is nothing comforting about “I’m just as scared as you” coming from the legislative branch that’s supposed to keep checks and balances on the executive. While she thought it was relatable, it is actually mortifying.

Holocaust survivors and educators spent decades warning everyone that the Nazis were normal people, not monsters, and that they would come back if we weren't vigilant. They were right, we weren't vigilant and now here we are.

For two people. Yes...they are threatening an entire state because they refuse to discriminate against two kids. That's the fucked up place we are at.

Eugenics has entered the chat, invited by the guy who sawed the head off of a whale, ate road kill, injected himself with drugs, & had his brain bits eaten by a worm.

This is where we are headed. If you don’t believe me, ask what basis the government had to send me and my family to a prison camp in Arkansas. We “looked like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.”

The family of a #Chicago man sent to a Salvadoran prison learned his whereabouts from a Kristi Noem video, @adrianacardmag.bsky.social found. The family has no idea how to reach him after recognizing him in footage of the U.S. homeland security chief touring the prison. www.wbez.org/immigration/...

From @newbedfordlight.bsky.social: A Guatemalan immigrant with no Massachusetts criminal record was arrested Monday on Tallman Street in New Bedford after federal agents shattered the glass on his vehicle as he and his wife waited inside the car for their lawyer to arrive.

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

This picture may haunt me to the end of my days. It is an ICE agent taking an axe to the car window of an immigrant in New Bedford, MA. Not far from where I sit now. An immigrant with no criminal record was abducted by this smiling man. An axe taken to a car window and to our democracy. 1/ #MomSky

no criminal record no gang ties no tattoos active pending asylum case **19 years old** sent by trump to prison (forever?) in el salvador www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action. "It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us." www.nbcboston.com/news/politic...

Harvard employs some 17k people depending on how you count it. They should just refuse to send federal taxes to DC from their employees’ paychecks.

If you see “El Salvador” on the package—don’t buy it. Check every label. Let’s send a message. Asking or international supporter to join in also.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

🚨I have a new beat at The Washington Post, covering the Trump administration's foreign policy with a focus on the State Department. If you have something to share, reach out to me at [email protected] or mradamtaylor.01 on Signal 🚨

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off. We would have more rights at this point if UPS had lost a pair of shoes I'd just bought from Zappos

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

🧵 We're extremely concerned DOGE has gained access to data that would help them target farmworkers & organizations serving them. Please help us spread the word in your communities. 🚨 Here's what we know.

If the Supreme Court decides that the government can "erroneously" disappear you off the street to a foreign torture prison, and that federal courts have no power to do anything about it, that is, in a meaningful way, Pretty Much It www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24...

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

You don’t get to vote for the snake and hope to miss the venom

Senator Jim Banks (R) isn’t sorry he told a fired federal worker “he probably deserved it”. He went on to say the worker was “complaining about losing a left-wing woke job in the federal government that should have never been a job to begin with”. The job was helping people with disabilities.

Um — Trump just turned over management of our 🇺🇸 strategic petroleum reserve to a mystery company, who will get $1.4 billion to run it? 🤔 www.devdiscourse.com/article/head...

Just a reminder that Grubhub is a Bezos/Amazon joint. Delete your Grubhub app and leave them behind. 🙏💙
