ProPublica received eight handwritten letters from children who have been held at the detention center that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was recently released from. We'll let their words speak for themselves.

“Trump is not a hypothetical. . . He is a uniquely authoritarian, vindictive, racist, corrupt and lawless demagogue — of which there isn’t remotely an analog on the other side of the aisle.” www.ms.now/opinion/libe...

These are the oligarchs who seek to rule every aspect of our lives, and the current US regime is doing everything possible to facilitate that because it is owned by them.

'Then they came for the journalists, no one really knows what happened after that'

The first president’s decision to step down from the presidency after two terms “ensured America wouldn’t become a monarchy, or worse,” he wrote.

Fucking insane, they are!

This flew under the radar, but it shouldn’t have. When senator Alex Padilla was tackled by DHS, Kristi Noem’s side piece, Corey Lewandowski, was orchestrating the situation in the hall.

Benjamin Netanyahu is of Russian descent.

The 2026 Munich Security Conference saw Europeans admit the relationship with America is on the rocks and that World War III is closer than ever. Here we salute the politicians and power players who distinguished themselves in less existential ways 👇

The acting chief of ICE admitted that federal immigration officers would have “no reason” to be at voting sites this November. His comments contradict alarming statements by Trump that threaten the upcoming 2026 vote, which include the deployment of immigration officers to polling places.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison. Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water. Our priorities are so fucked.

The MAGA supporting click farms we told you about before the elections (pic 1) didn't go away. They just got more technologically advanced (pic 2). Their message now is Democrats are bad and it was stolen so don't bother voting ever again. Unfollow and block anyone spreading their message.

I'm a NYT-to-English translator and I'm here to help "ideological flexibility" translates to "staggering hypocrisy" outside the pages of the NYT

Universities are based in reasoned fact and discourse which Trump finds threatening.

How it started… how’s it going?

THIS is how Republicans end elections.

BREAKING: The North Carolina Supreme Court allows GOP to seize control of the state elections board as litigation continues. Justice Riggs slammed the Court for abandoning over a century of legal precedent. From: @yuniorarivas.bsky.social www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Was quite a moment, a sense we reached some kind of inflection point in U.S. history. You can now personally pay a U.S. president to gain an audience.

Here is our story on some of the $TRUMP buyers: folks who paid money to the Trump family and their partners in exchange for getting access to the president of the United States. A free link. Who Won a Seat at Trump’s Crypto Dinner? www.nytimes.com/2025/05/23/u...

Crypto diners exposed

Germans are trolling Trump! Shut up Trump! 😆😂🤣

I love what Trump's done with the place.

Loving Day, the landmark case that overturned U.S. state laws against interracial marriage, is on June 12. NPR wants to hear from people who celebrate this day.

Twitter is broken again. Way to go elon. Guess I’ll check out Bluesky for my morning social media fix even though posting on here is like spitting into the ocean and thinking it adds to the volume of water.

Today, over 20,000 bee species are buzzing for #WorldBeeDay 🐝 Bees & other pollinators keep 80% of crop and wild flowering plants alive. Yet, 1 in 10 bee, hoverfly, and butterfly species are now at risk of extinction in the EU.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

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:

The lies Pam Bondi and Stephen Miller just told about Abrego Garcia on national TV... ...I have no words for them. I am sick of calling things obscene or deranged. These are obviously evil people charting an obviously evil course for our country. The idea of Hell was devised for people like this.

Breaking: at 2 AM last night, somebody set the Pennsylvania governors mansion on fire. Josh Shapiro and his family were safely removed. There were no injuries. There is a $10,000 reward for capture of the arsonist.

“BRING HIM HOME” 🔥

“This is yet another example of a DOGE ‘report’ misunderstanding this data at best, blatantly mischaracterizing this data at worst.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/12/u...

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

U.S. and Ukrainian officials met on Friday on a U.S. proposal to gain access to Ukraine's mineral wealth, a source with knowledge of the matter said, adding that prospects for a breakthrough were scant given the meeting's "antagonistic" atmosphere.

They are trying…and making headway toward their goal every day…to squeeze every last breath out of the lungs of democracy. At that point, they plan to stomp on the lifeless corpse. You already know that, but sometimes it helps to see it in print. If we let it slip away…it’s gone forever.

To say that this proposal would be a colossal blunder would be quite an understatement. arstechnica.com/space/2025/0...

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

What happened today reeks of insider trading. Trump’s tweet wasn’t random—it was a signal. Someone cashed in, and the public deserves to know who and how much. Follow. The. Money. “This entire White House is one giant grift.” —Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social shining a spotlight on it! 🔥

Sen Murphy lays it out perfectly

A friend who understands these matters said last night that we’ll be lucky to get out of this with a normal recession, as opposed to a real international economic crisis. As Kyle Rodda said, 'This goes beyond pricing in a growth slowdown and trade uncertainty.'” www.thebulwark.com/p/not-seriou...

The President of the United States engaged in insider trading, and laughed about it. He is not exempt from the law. Where the fuck is Congress?

He really might’ve actually destroyed the U.S. dollar as a reserve currency holy fuck

Just like Steve Bannon wanted archive.vanityfair.com/article/2024...

Jasmine Crockett 🔥🔥🔥 "All I kept hearing was 'fire.' ... They are lighting the Social Security on fire, Medicaid on fire, Medicare on fire, 401ks on fire, Department of Education on fire ..." Meanwhile, their incompetent leader has already wasted $26 million taxpayer dollars playing golf!

Trump's trade war ignites brand backlash www.axios.com/2025/04/10/t...

NEW: Today, the House will vote on the SAVE Act, a bill that would disenfranchise millions of voters. As Rep. Terri Sewell (D-AL) states, “this bill is not about protecting our elections, it’s about making it harder for Americans to vote and easier for Republicans to win.”

The stupid... it b-u-r-n-s...!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥
