Known Russian asset and a living prehistoric specimen Marjorie Taylor Greene had his Trump security forces attack and beat his constituents during a town hall, he had them attacked due to their inquiries. Most were dragged out and only the black constituents were tazed.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

We need a new free speech movement.

And universities should sue the Trump regime for abridging the First Amendment rights of their institutions and their students.

Whether it comes from mayors or presidents, threats against press freedom are threats against freedom in general. We all have a duty to support journalism against the authoritarian impulse. ICYMI Bill Lueders: www.thebulwark.com/p/press-free...
Now Is the Time to Stand Up for Press Freedom
Bad-faith lawsuits, ugly smears, and even violence against journalists are becoming more common. To that, we must all say, ‘Enough.’

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history!

I remember when Schumer refused to bring the Military Justice Improvement Act to the floor. It had 66 yes votes. I never got an answer as to why. They ended up watering it down and folding it into the NDAA.

As he faces Senate confirmation, remember that Dr. Oz:

-Pushed Medicare privatization plans on his show
-Owns ~$600k in stock in private insurers
-Has ties to pyramid scheme companies that promote fake medical cures

His main qualification to oversee CMS is loyalty to Trump.

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

BREAKING: Trump shuts off intelligence to Ukraine, cutting off data for drones, air attacks, and air defense

This is a clear and direct violation of the Budapest Memorandum of 1994 - in which US gave security guarantee to Ukraine in exchange for Ukraine giving up nukes and ships

If you care about Social Security and aren’t following Kathleen, you’re doing it wrong
Now confirmed: The Trump Administration will cut *7,000* staff from the Social Security Administration. That's enormous. See my thread below for what it means.

🚨 TL;DR: The Trump Admin's staff purge at Social Security will be equivalent to a government shutdown EVERY SINGLE DAY. 🚨
I'm seeing conflicting reports about imminent staff purges at the Social Security Admin.

Here's what we know: The Trump Admin instructed each agency to plan for large-scale layoffs, starting with employees furloughed during gov shutdowns. What would that mean for SSA?

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.
