Tear off the masks when they show up. Take their photos. Get them on video. Expose them. Out them. Name them. They need to be made into pariahs where decent people gather. We cannot allow them to terrorize us. Eyes open. Phones on.

You MUST watch this exchange from today’s Tx House debate on anti-library HB3225. “This is about your desire to make sure that children have access to sexually explicit materials,” says the bill’s author. “Rep Alders, do you know what I have done for a living?” Says @voteannjohnson.bsky.social

Disappearing an elected official.

The first Democratic governor who sends their state troopers into an ICE field office to free someone ICE has kidnapped is going to be president in four years.

If you have to repeatedly break the law to arrest those you claim have broken the law, you’re not enforcing the law. ICE has morphed into a terrorizing Gestapo-like goon squad. They must be held accountable.

Per NBC News: Rumeysa Ozturk has been released!

Gonna be real interesting when they start worshipping a Golden Cybertruck and God doesn’t need to do anything because it catches itself on fire.

So to sum up the Wisconsin arrest issue: ICE didn't have a juridical warrant. They only had an administrative warrant. The DOJ has not convened a grand jury to indict the judge. They only got a criminal complaint before a magistrate judge. This is ridiculous.

A cinematographer

"They’re arresting judges, they're deporting citizens." Should trend as much as "they're eating dogs..."

How do states and counties expect to run their own judicial systems, have people show up for hearings, etc., while ICE is kidnapping those people from their courthouses to remove people from due process and torture them? We need folks showing up for their court dates and complying with the law.

Good illustration. She was presiding over domestic violence court with many cases on the docket when ICE barged in. Those domestic violence victims deserved their day in court too.

I filmed this yesterday on my way to Lousiana where my constituent Rümeysa Öztürk is being wrongfully held by ICE. I’m there now demanding her release. More to come.

My first apartment in 1994 was $350/month. Adjusting for inflation, that apartment should now rent for $744/month. It actually rents for $1500. Greed and inflation are hurting the kids, not their Starbucks lattes.

Remember those piece of shit private security guards who violently dragged a woman out of a GOP town hall in Idaho back in February? They’ve finally been charged.

An underrated aspect of human colleagues is that they can tell you when you shouldn’t post something.

LOLOLOL I am 100% confident that Hegseth added his personal lawyer to the acts-of-war Signal chat because he believed that meant it'd be privileged information.

Be fooled by Pete Hesgeth once, shame on him. Be fooled by Pete twice, he passes the bottle around.

Day 92 Hegseth, part time Defense Secretary, full time alcoholic, has once again used Signal to divulge highly sensitive/classified information. And included a bunch of people in the group who ABSOLUTELY should not have been on it. His time at Pentagon has been carnage. You are all caught up.

Yes, Pete Hesgeth has had problems with alcoholism, yes Pete has White nationalist tattoos, yes Pete spent more time on Fox News than in the military, yes Pete's been repeatedly caught using insecure platforms to share US attack plans, but have you considered... damn, I forgot what I was gonna say.

Crazy that we get to watch the people elected to “represent” the country crash out in real time on social media. Nancy Mace, Pete Hesgeth… the President. No better than the online trolls we ban from our comment sections and they’re supposed to run the country. We’ll never not be embarrassed.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News today that defense secretary Pete Hesgeth can't communicate via official channels because: "the entire Pentagon is working against (him) and working against the monumental change that (he is) trying to implement."

As we chortle at the latest Hesgeth fuck up, remember that this ongoing threat to US national security is not just Trump’s fault. It is on 50 Republican senators and Vance. They all knew (or should have) that Hesgeth was a bad joke of a nominee & they went ahead and put him into the job anyway.

I think it’d be really funny if the White House ‘accidentally’ added Pete Hesgeth to a Signal group about the plans for him getting fired.

Cut Hesgeth some slack. He created that Signal chat because he was super drunk and with one of his girlfriends and he had to convince his wife that he was "at work"

If Hesgeth resigns, how will they manage to find someone who's even worse?

I hope Alito's last thoughts are what a failure of a human he was during his lifetime.

Not to mention, she stole all the money raised for her grandkids in a GoFundMe. She is a vile, greedy, hateful thief who is being sued by her own murdered daughter's children.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Why is it difficult? Juan García Abrego might be guilty of associating with the wrong people, not a crime, or of wearing the wrong insignias, also not a crime. He might also be guilty of crimes. This is what the judicial process is for. So far, he hasn't been charged w/ crimes. That is the crime.

Dear @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social STOP telling America we are in a Constituional crisis (which we are) but ACTING like it’s politics as usual. IF IT’S A GDMF CRISIS, ACT LIKE IT! We don’t want to see more speeches & interviews. We want to see open rebellion from YOU!!

If the precedent gets set that the president can remove nonprofit status from anyone he disagrees with, then any Democratic president in the future that allows the ADF and heritage and megachurches to be considered nonprofits is explicitly endorsing them.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit. ICE officers. Cabinet members. White House staffers. Even the president.

My name is Ben and I have autism. I’m not less than anyone else I just see the world differently. Lately I’ve been working on losing weight by walking. I walked 5 miles yesterday. It’s also helps with my confidence and I can enjoy the outdoors and the scenery.

I think it’s fine to bully people for reading Harry Potter in 2025 actually If you want to read your old Harry Potter books, you should do it in secret and shamefully - you know, in the way that J.K. Rowling wants to force trans people to live.

NOTE: There are more people *in this frame of television* than there are transgender athletes in the State of Maine *All* of this is theater for stupid people

oh ok give me a moment while I look for my shocked face 🙄 oh wait that’s not it 🤮dang where is it 😵‍💫oh wait here it is 😱

The one where they determined he was not allowed to be deported to El Salvador, apparently.

One original thought, 2025

"He's wrong because he doesn't agree with me" is a strong counter argument, hard to beat that.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

NEW: Ahead of today’s hearing before Judge Xinis in Greenbelt, counsel for Kilmar Abrego Garcia argue that the government should “at least” be required to request the release of Abrego Garcia from El Salvador.

Perhaps the biggest failing over the past 3 decades was the refusal to agressively prosecute white collar financial crime. Musk should be in jail for stock fraud is just the biggest example.

I absolutely think the key factor leading to this horror show has been total US failure to meaningfully prosecute white collar crime
