The real leaders are the incredible grassroots organizers who continue to make history with their efforts, which grow stronger by the day. We’re honored to play whatever role we can in uplifting these movements—even if corporate media chooses to ignore what's really happening on the ground.
Cohen: Take MeidasTouch Network. They’re beating Joe Rogan, they’re beating Fox, they’re beating the lame stream news. So when there’s a march, all you have to do is contact the Meiselas brothers — next thing you know, you’ve got ten million people showing up. That’s an army.

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US.

When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

There’s just so much shady shit in this story, but this really sticks out. Folks in NLRB’s IT unit were so freaked out by what they saw DOGE doing that they wanted to notify the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Then this happened:

Don't let Donald's tariff stupidity distract you from talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon that put our troops in danger. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not. And we can multitask our criticisms.

Release the memo!
“The Republic of El Salvador confirms it will house these individuals for one (1) year, pending the United States’ decision on their long term disposition,” wrote El Salvador’s ministry of foreign affairs in a memo obtained by The Associated Press.

It seems as though the US has complete control.

ECONOMY IN SHAMBLES

U.S. job cuts hit 275,240 in March 2025, the highest since the pandemic peak in 2020, surpassing 2001 & 2008 recessions. Layoffs surge as federal cuts, led by DOGE, echo Covid-era losses.

It's the third highest monthly total on record.

Sending those people to El Salvador was all done to get leverage. Trump wanted to pressure Venezuela so they would start taking deportees. So he endangered people and then lied to a judge to buy time. Now they will hurry and send the prisoners to Venezuela and tell the judge the case is moot.
Venezuela announced Saturday that it had reached an agreement with the Trump administration to resume accepting deportation flights carrying migrants who were in the U.S. illegally, with the first one landing as soon as Sunday.
Venezuela Says It Will Resume Accepting U.S. Deportation Flights
The Venezuelan government attributed a willingness to receive the flights to the plight of Venezuelan migrants sent to notorious prisons in El Salvador with little to no due process.

Lives are just a bargaining chip to Trump. Venezuela refused to take deportees. So Trump's go to move is to do something stupid to apply pressure. If Maduro gives in, DOJ claims the people aren't in prison. They're back in their home country. Lawyers hope that their defiance won't matter anymore.

It's clear that the Trump administration denied due process to the migrants it banished to El Salvador *precisely because* any measure of judicial oversight would've proved their innocence immediately.

When Marco Rubio signed on as Donald Trump’s Secretary of State, he went into the job “with eyes wide open,” according to a source.

What Rubio didn’t count on was that he might run the risk of being overshadowed as secretary of state by one of Trump’s closest friends.

When Marco Rubio signed on as Donald Trump’s Secretary of State, he went into the job “with eyes wide open,” according to a person familiar with his thinking. He knew it wouldn’t be easy working for Trump. He knew that Trump had a track record of firing top officials by tweet. He also knew what it was like to be called, “Little Marco.”

Elon Musk is not finding “waste and abuse”. He is simply slashing regulations and firing regulators that keep you safe, just so he can add a few more zeros to his bank account.
