Palm Springs Police Chief Andy Mills addressed the No Kings crowd of 5000 tonight. So proud to be part of the team that made this entirely peaceful event happen so that we can exercise our contitutional rights. #nokings

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Gracias por tu alegría, Papá Francisco.

Large protest today in Temecula, CA. #temecula #dueprocess

Time to stand up, show up, and speak out. Change doesn’t come to those who wait—it comes to those who demand it. Get out there. Make noise. Be seen. ❤️🪧📢 @rcdpofca.bsky.social @indivisibleriv.bsky.social @50501inlandempire.bsky.social @desertdemocrats.bsky.social

Thank god he is still alive. Thank you Senator Van Hollen.

Two ways: Pope Francis visits a prison in Rome and, after spending time with inmates, blows them kisses. He said, "I ask myself: Why them and not me?" Rep. Moore visits a jail in El Salvador and gave a thumbs up to their suffering. Which way would Jesus, imprisoned during the Passion, prefer?

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is. Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.

"He was being slapped every time he would speak up… he started praying and calling out, literally crying for his mother," said the photojournalist. How can a 31 yo Venezuelan gay makeup artist land in El Salvador's CECOT w/o ever being charged of a crime? Answer: Trump. cbsnews.com/news/photojo...

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

BREAKING: Trump admin says it mistakenly deported a Maryland father who had *withholding of removal* back to El Salvador on March 15. Govt told court Monday it won't bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back. "What.The.Fuck..." one govt attorney told me. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc... @theatlantic.com

One of my favorite essays on this: "The idea that new code is better than old is patently absurd. Old code has been used. It has been tested. Lots of bugs have been found, and they’ve been fixed. There’s nothing wrong with it. It doesn’t acquire bugs just by sitting around on your hard drive."

SULLIVAN: “I do not care about the economy if the government claims it can break down anyone's doors, seize anyone with no due process, put them on a plane, and send them to a foreign jail… that is fundamental to this country.” 🇺🇸

“What’s transpired over the last three or four days just takes it to a whole new level of cruelty and inhumanity and, frankly, a whole new level of stupidity in doing this is the most non-strategic way.” Tens of thousands of people will die as a result of this action. www.salon.com/2025/02/28/a...

Every time a story about an immigrant committing a crime gets reported in the news, I hear angry white people get outraged bc they say “they shouldn’t have been here in the first place.” Probably how indigenous Americans feel every time a white person commits a crime. Sit down, colonizers.

For those that disagree with me on AI, this article does a good job explaining your position and why he thinks you are right open.substack.com/pub/garymarc...

EO ending school vaccine COVID mandates. OK COVID didn’t kill many children, but killed many obese parents and healthy grandparents. Next up, lawsuits to end other vaccine mandates for schools as these diseases are now so uncommon they also do not kill children? www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

A good compilation of all the lows of the first month of the Trump regime. Is blundering and flailing the strategy or just incompetence? open.substack.com/pub/andrewsu...

I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity." He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...

Exclusive: Federal workers have filed an emergency motion requesting a restraining order to disconnect the DOGE server that's being used to conduct Trump's "deferred resignation program." The workers had previously accused DOGE of illegally bypassing a mandated privacy audit. By me at @wired.com:

Same capacity as Dachau, the first Nazi concentration camp. www.cnn.com/2025/02/04/p...

Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

Another big lie, this time we get a 25% tax increase cloaked as a tariff. Last year, Fentanyl deaths decreased roughly 14.5%, as the opioid addiction epidemic slowed down. It was not caused by Canada, Mexico or China. Tax Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family. www.npr.org/2024/11/14/n...

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

If you wanted no leaks you should have gone into Settings -> Security -> Configure privacy & security -> Privacy options -> Other -> Configure -> Media interface and clicked “Disallow.” The Leak setting is on by default but we understand your privacy is important so we’ve made it easy to opt out

Gustavo Petro: From today Colombia is open to all the world, with open arms, we are builders of freedom, life and humanity. “COLOMBIA A PARTIR DE HOY SE ABRE A TODO EL MUNDO, CON LOS BRAZOS ABIERTOS, SOMOS CONSTRUCTORES DE LIBERTAD, VIDA Y HUMANIDAD.”

Wisdom from his many years.

And I present… Mexican America.

While it’s really all about creating more outrage to get more engagement, in reality they are throwing more fuel onto a raging fire that is now threatening to destroy the world.

What an ingrate move to denigrate the only state that gave him the space and freedom to innovate. None of these tech bros could have done what they did anywhere else but in tolerant and inclusive places like California or Washington www.thedailybeast.com//zuckerberg-...

🚨🚨🚨 We're launching a brand new newsletter dedicated to the the most important story of the launch of Trump's second term: mass deportations. And we have the perfect author for it. Huddled Masses will be anchored by @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social Sign up -> thebulwark.com/subscribe

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

The resistance rises… in Mexico. ❤️ Presidente Sheinbaum. youtu.be/vfZWSX1uOE0?...

Thank you Joe Biden and the CBP for intercepting the 3,000 fake Gibson guitars before being sold by e-commerce merchant. Where there is grift there will be massive graft. www.latimes.com/california/s...

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

We should acknowledge that MAGA and Trump’s victory were enabled by internet platforms whose business models reward fear and outrage. Dems had 8 yrs after FB enabled Trump and never had a floor vote in either chamber on a single bill that could possibly have addressed the harms. 🧵1/x

1/ HOW TO TRIAGE AN IMMIGRATION EMERGENCY As someone who has been defending non-citizens in deportation proceedings since 2006, I am here to tell you that we know exactly who Trump's top targets will be, & how we can try to protect them NOW. NOT LEGAL ADVICE but here's what we know about priorities

WIRED has tracked thousands of US military & intel personnel coming & going from classified sites, incl. NSA hubs & nuclear vaults. We know where they sleep, what they eat, and which brothels they visit. It's an ocean of blackmail & national secrets within reach of every spy agency in the world.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

Don't think polio could come back? Think again. In 2019, RFK Jr. used his anti-vax non-profit to promote lies about vaccines in Samoa. Vaccine rates fell, and a deadly measles outbreak raged across the island. 83 people died. Most of them were children. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The appointment of Stephen Miller as Trump’s deputy chief of staff is an ominous sign of how extreme the Trump White House will get. Miller’s core focus has been immigration policy. He will oversee illegal deportations, asylum seeker expulsions, and anti-immigration policy.
