Ambushing & arresting people who are here legally & are obeying the law by checking in with ICE as they’re required to do. Repressive fear tactics that will NOT end with immigrants alone. Why would it? It’s a handy way to force your opposition into compliance and silence, & take dictatorial control

The cruelty is the point.

Republican Tommy Tuberville has blocked a Democratic resolution that would have condemned the proposed gift of a luxury jet from Qatar to Trump.

This bill isn't about balancing the budget—it’s about tax breaks for billionaires and kick backs to corporate donors and billionaires, while silencing public voices. We see the grift and we’re calling it out.

Let me let you in on a little secret: The GOP is trying to sneak Trump’s policy wish list, aka his “One Big Beautiful Bill,” into law through a budget gimmick.

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

this is monstrous but it's also just not true. i know that gets lost but the permission structure here is "other countries do this," so it's at least worth acknowledging: no they don't.

Pete Hegseth in 2016: "How damaging is it to your ability to recruit or build allies with others when they are worried that our leaders may be exposing them because of their gross negligence or their recklessness in handling information?"

CARTOON OF THE DAY (from @BennettCartoons ) 🇺🇸 😕

When Rubio announced the agreement with El Salvador in February he touted it as a way to outsourcing the federal prison system by allowing the US to send American citizen inmates there to serve their . This undercuts the Trump administration’s claim to the courts that it can’t get people back.

The Internal Revenue Service has reached an agreement with immigration authorities to share tax information about some immigrants without legal status, marking a major change in how tax records can be used.

"These are defacto tax cuts for the wealthy paid for by the poor" - Steve Liesman on CNBC

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy. Third time’s the charm, I guess.

God bless John Lewis.

Goldberg on Waltz: "This isn't The Matrix. Phone numbers don't just get sucked into other phones. I don't know what he's talking about ... my phone number was in his phone because my phone number was in his phone. He's telling everyone that he's never met me or spoken to me. That's simply not true."

I prefer African American. He is from South Africa and he is in the USA now, so the title is fitting. Imagine if everyone started referring to him as elon musk, the African American.

Fun fact: The Constitution doesn’t come with a ‘some restrictions may apply’ disclaimer. Everyone means everyone—no fine print! 📜
