Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved. DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

This is the end goal of anyone who wants to eliminate "politics" from discourse where they don't deem it "appropriate." Erasure of history, erasure of current facts.

WASH POST: “Dollar down 10% under Trump… the key to the dollar’s drop is the ripple effect of the president’s erratic policymaking, including abrupt stops and starts with tariffs and military action against a lengthening list of countries…” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

THIS.

If you haven’t read @joyannreid.bsky.social’s “Medgar & Myrlie” about Medgar Evers and Myrlie Evers, you should. It’s phenomenal—and I especially appreciated the audio book, as it’s read by Joy Reid herself: www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...

This book really affected me, I think because the narrative vividly illustrates in such a personal way how everything works in practice bsky.app/profile/dipl...

American star Alysa Liu overcame a delay en route to the Milano Skating Arena caused by Vice President JD Vance’s motorcade and finished second in the women’s short program at the Olympics team event. “We almost didn’t make it,” her coach said.

I don’t think Vance is a true believer and so I believe there’s a place inside him left that still feels this shame and hurt. That some part of him knows that he sold every last inch of his soul he could sell. That he crossed every line of decency and dignity in hope of reward. And this is reward.

“Is it fair to ask the American people to pay for that?” TRUMP: “I’m giving 100% to charity.” P.S. - No he isn’t P.P.S. - He thinks we are all idiots

🔥 HASAN: "Every election Dems go, 'We have to become more racist, more transphobic’ — No, we want them to vote for us because we're offering something to every American unconditionally. Medicare for All is a great example… racists need healthcare too.”

Good Q @SarahKSilvermam

When you hear of a billionaire losing money on a pricey hobby or side business — whether it's a race horse or a newspaper — remember that those losses can actually create huge write-offs that let the ultrarich get away with paying little or no income tax. (Published 2021)

WATCH — @patryanforcongress : “DHS and ICE are attempting to build a national network of warehouses for mass detention… 80,000 at a time… tens of billions of dollars… Trump’s multi-billionaire donors will benefit…”

NEW Trump has burned through much of his immigration political capital before ICE could scale up its mass deportation tools. Now he wants a “softer” tune to stop the agency from becoming a pariah, and to shift attention from Minneapolis to his border record www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

trump creating the incentive and permission structure for democrats to do insane 2010-era gerrymandering of their own may turn out to be one of the biggest self-owns of all time. dems are now pretty likely to emerge with an advantage from the 2025-26 redistricting wars

I love how National R’s are learning the lesson and name of Senator Louise Lucas that Youngkin learned over the course of his term. I kinda think that anyone who has “gerontocracy Dems bad” arguments needs to wrestle with the spectacular legislative effectiveness of Lucas.

🤷🏼

omgoodness! yes, God bless Louise Lucas!

so funny to see republicans complaining about this as if they have not been pulling this shit for 15 years.

on the balance i think partisan gerrymandering is bad but the only way it ends is if democrats weaponize it against republicans everywhere they can. wiping out republican lawmakers in blue states might bring the GOP to the table to end the practice.

also, when you undermine the rule of law, it's much easier to steal

Thanks to Mike Rounds’ vote for massive tax giveaways for his billionaire donor class, big corporations like Amazon now have lower tax rates than hardworking South Dakotan families.

Understanding society is dangerous to reactionaries selling racial animus & crushing austerity, while enriching the rich

Epstein took this photo at a 2015 dinner with Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk and emailed it to himself. Further review shows the same photo displayed on Epstein’s credenza. While much of the image on the credenza had previously been obscured, this email now makes clear what it shows.
