#Pittsburgh area ICE + local police in #ambridge. Per witnesses, no warrants present. Just armed men grabbing people. #resist

🚨WATCH: This is what Trump doesn’t want you to know about his rotten deal with El Salvador. In exchange for Bukele imprisoning people abducted from the US, like Abrego Garcia, Trump stopped investigations into MS-13 suspects who could testify about Bukele’s collusion with MS-13:

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

Do not lose hope. You are not alone. Most of America rejects this. The people do not want an authoritarian regime—we do not want oligarchy, we do not want Christian nationalism, we do not want techno-fascism. And we’re more powerful than they’ll ever be. The people united will never be defeated.

I can think of no more fitting celebration of our country than spending resources to pollute our air in order to generate a spectacle that the sunrise will outdo a few hours later.

pretty weird how there's always billion dollars just lying around whenever ICE needs concentration camps but there's never any money when children need healthcare or a simple school lunch. oh well just one of those things I guess

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

Now, now, let's not over-react. Surely a company named after an evil orb that corrupts all those who view it and links them to a supernatural despot bent on enslaving the world has our best interests at heart?

"If the economy and the government were working the way they should for most Americans, and guy like Donald Trump and a movement like Trumpism would not have been possible." @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

In Trump's America, a thoughtcrime is an actionable and deportable offense. You either love this country and what it stands for, or you think this is acceptable. But it definitely can't be both.

Detainees died due to starvation or dehydration. ICE murdered them.

Our moment to stop this is waning. Join together or be picked apart, controlled, and ultimately destroyed.

At this point, I barely care what people's specific policy positions are. I barely care how they voted. Right now, the house is burning down. I don't care if you helped light the match....as long as you are willing to put the fire out now.

@repsummerlee.bsky.social pulled no punches tonight at her town hall! "Don't think [DOGE cuts] can't be cruel and incompetent at the same time" "We cannot serve two masters" and need to get money out of politics if we want anything else done. Proud to have her as my rep. 💪

A professor of environmental sciences gives a quick punchy take on the "eye-popping" numbers re. how clean air promotes economic growth. An EPA analysis of 20 years of the Clean Air Act (1970-90) found the economic benefits of the regulations were about 42X greater than the costs. No pay wall.

AOC on senate Dems caving and backing the CR: “A wide sense of betrayal.”

We need to make the case that anyone who needs a specialist or gets a disease will suffer later for this lack of support now. Many people don't understand how their treatments now are only possible because of decades of investment amd the dedication of many researchers they have never heard of.

A letter from two House Democrats presses Rubio for details about who approved an effort to try to use hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayer money on armored electric vehicles from Tesla.

Folks, this is coming out of your pocket. And your future health.
