Notice how Republicans aren't talking about jobs being created.

Yeah, because only $37,000.00 was created last month. You read that right, 37,000.00. The lowest in two years.

Hey MAGA the economy sucks right now and your orange punk-ass tariff-loving daddy is the cause.

The government of the United States is selling people into slavery.

ICE and your local police have circled right back around to slave patrols.

NEW: @nbcnews.com confirmed last night that the Trump admin almost sent a dozen men from Vietnam, the Philippines, Laos, and Mexico to Libya, a country described as a “hellscape” for migrants where some have been SOLD INTO SLAVERY and many have been subjected to extraordinary horrors.

May 8, 2025, 6:37 PM EDT
By Kimmy Yam and Laura Strickler
A Filipino immigrant detained in Texas described being woken up at 2:30 a.m. on Wednesday by armed guards in tactical gear, being told he was being sent to Libya, and then waiting for hours on a bus at a military base outside a military plane, his lawyer said.
The flight never took off and he was sent back to solitary confinement in the Texas facility along with the other 12 detainees, mostly from Asian countries, the immigrant's lawyer, Johnny Sinodis, told NBC News. The immigrant requested anonymity due to fear of retaliation.
The immigrants, including people from the Philippines, Vietnam, Laos and Mexico, would later learn that their attorneys filed an emergency motion after reports that the Trump administration had planned to send a group of immigrants to Libya.

We need more Republicans to speak out.

A tweet from "Republicans against Trump" quotes GOP Rep. Don Bacon criticizing the handling of classified information on an unclassified device. Below, a CNN screenshot shows a reporter in a dark suit interviewing Rep. Don Bacon, who is wearing a suit with a blue tie, in a hallway. The CNN chyron reads, "TODAY: TRUMP INTEL OFFICIALS APPEAR BEFORE SENATE COMMITTEE" with a subheading identifying Rep. Bacon as a Republican from Nebraska. The setting is indoors with beige walls and overhead lighting.

Could Jeffery Goldberg have a defamation lawsuit against Mike Waltz?

The reputational damage Goldberg could suffer if Atlantic subscribers believe Waltz' lies is not insignificant.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.

Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Listen everyone. I’ve see classified stuff before. This in the Atlantic is the kind of stuff that gets the highest classification.

I had to have TS clearance to hear the names of the people we targeted in Iraq when i was with TF16 and 17. And still some names were withheld until op was over….

Step up, stand up, speak out.

This moment is hard — I don't dispute that, but this isn't the time to be afraid.

Make your voice heard, whether it’s at a town hall or on the phone, so Donald Trump and Republicans know how sick and tired you are of them cutting your services.
