Aaaand there it is.

Why are ICE agents masked to begin with? Our law enforcement officers shouldn’t be anonymous. Ever.

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of protesters chant “Free our Mayor!” outside the DHS building in Newark, NJ where Mayor Ras Baraka is being held (Video: @spydermonkeywatch.bsky.social)

ICE is the Gestapo. Full stop.

What?!?!?? ICE arrested the Mayor of Newark, New Jersey?!?!? What exactly are they claiming Ras Baraka did?!?!

What happened before Mayor Baraka’s arrest needs daylight. Did masked ICE agents let him in just so they could arrest and perp walk him to send a message of fear. Because that’s what it looks like. We’re sliding into fascism—and fast. And if we don’t stop it now, we may not get another chance.

Disappearing an elected official.

“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”

Should this happen, the event would be countered by a massive turnout of citizens protesting his birth.

May Day Reminder: The Federal Minimum Wage - in the richest country EVER - is still only $7.25/hr. UNACCEPTABLE.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978? 100%? 500%? Try 1,085% Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago. It also received $22M in federal aid. While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.

Didn’t somebody back in the 80’s write a best seller about Supreme Court justices, being murdered? Does anyone remember? I remember I read it on a plane.

In a way this little snapshot I borrowed from somebody really cuts our future off at the knees. We were great, but we are great no more. Where about breaking into the homes of our own citizens, stealing their money, breaking our furniture terrifying our children. The Trump America.

This is from The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson aired on May 20th, 1977. Carl Sagan says something very important, a strong message that didn't lose any validity since then.

The only one with lower approval than Trump before is Trump today.

JUST IN: Governor Newsom does not hold back on his criticism of Trump’s complete and total failure of a presidency so far.

At long last someone has identified RFK Jr.'s support base: the 9% of people who have a favorable opinion of the Black Plague

the tariffs have been great for me specifically in that I get to watch every stodgy business media publication start posting like 2017 resistlibs

Well, you can learn one lesson from Trump's poor example today: appeasement does not work.

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

Al gore is pissed off and I’m here for it

Every state needs to do this ASAP

‘The President Has Been Lying About a Bunch of Prices’: Daniel Dale Fact Checks Trump’s ‘Repeated Deception’ on Tariff Fallout https://twp.ai/4ilkJp

Newsom: In 2023, Californians contributed $83.1 billion more to the federal government than we received back. And for your viewers: that other state—Texas—took $71.1 billion more than it contributed to the federal government. California: $83 billion, contributor. Texas: taker.

Mahmoud Khalil, a legal U.S. resident, has been held in an ICE detention center for over a month but has still not been charged with a crime.

"The S&P 500’s performance since Inauguration Day is now the worst for any president up to this point in data going back to 1928, according to Bespoke Investment Group." www.wsj.com/finance/inve...

Jennifer Rubin of The Contrarian lays out clearly what most people already know but the mainstream media and other actors in the public eye keep pondering: Yes, we are in a constitutional crisis I wonder if he rolled his eyes while taking his oath of office, or worse, if he believes his own BS

Dem’s project 2029 part 4

I interviewed Senator Van Hollen today about his efforts to speak to Kilmar Abrego Garcia:

US Senator Van Hollen has been able to successfully meet with Kilmer Abrego Garcia.

Kaitlan Collins to Homan: "You say everything was done right here and I heard Stephen Miller in the Oval Office also argue he was lawfully deported. But this administration has admitted in court that he was mistakenly deported, that he should not have been deported."

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

Goldman: "Think about whether any of us want to vote a certain way but bc we fear for our personal safety, we decide to vote differently. We are no longer representing our constituents. We are representing something else more like the bully threatening us. That is more like Vladimir Putin operates"

Oh wow, look at that. How fast "innocent until proven guilty" becomes "get your window smashed in and detained because you fit a racial profile".

The comments are savage for good reason: www.facebook.com/100045702441...

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?" Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’” “I’M PISSED!”

Indeed

If law professors are unwilling to stand up for the rule of law and the most basic principles at the core of our constitutional order as sacrosanct, there is no point in teaching constitutionalism in law schools at all.

It's pretty unconscionable that when Pam Bondi was asked to show proof against Kilmar Abrego Garcia, she said they have court transcripts. The Attorney General of the United States thinks that their allegations in court are EVIDENCE?! Vile.

Karmic that @apnews.com, after being barred from the White House, broke the terms of the CECOT agreement that DOJ has refused to produce.

It sounds like someone sent a probably misspelled memo to every media provider in this country saying: ANY MENTION OF PROTESTS ON YOUR NETWORK WILL HAVE BILLY CONSEQUENCES!!! HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO EL SALVADOR?

what a visual

It's raining micro plastics World Wide. We are all connected and this will kill us all.
