I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

Remember when Republicans said Trump’s Tax Scam wouldn’t touch Medicare?

They were lying.
Trump and GOP’s tax bill would force cuts to Medicare, CBO says
Some $500 billion in cuts to Medicare could be avoided if Congress instructs the White House budget office to disregard the reconciliation package’s debt impact.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”

He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”

Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.

Marriott still has my business.

Whether you think he belongs in the US or El Salvador, I hope we can all agree that there is no justifying a life sentence in prison without a criminal conviction commensurate with such a sentence.
This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

“Why am I so sad today?” I ask myself after staring at my little handheld sadness machine and clicking all the sad little things that will definitely make me sad

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Friends, many of us are finding it hard to feel hopeful. And that’s ok. When you can’t feel hope, do hope. Hope is getting out of bed. Hope is telling jokes, writing that paper, smiling at a stranger, permission to rest. Hope is a practice. What does hope in action look like for you?

Goodnight 💚

"If Kilmar is not home by midweek – I plan to travel to El Salvador this week to check on his condition and discuss his release."

Hooray, I have been awake for a half hour and am already mired in despair! Does "rise and grind" mean immediately grinding your face into the stone wheel of reality right after you wake up? Because if so, I'm doing it right!

I wish things were boring again. Uneventful. Unremarkable. Dull even. Nothing happening that's noteworthy.

Interesting times are vastly overrated.

This is what happens to innocent people when this administration is frothing at the mouth over deporting immigrants without due process or any regard for human rights. It absolutely can and will continue to happen if we look the other way. I can't even fathom the anguish his family is feeling.
BREAKING: Trump admin says it mistakenly deported a Maryland father who had *withholding of removal* back to El Salvador on March 15. Govt told court Monday it won't bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back. "What.The.Fuck..." one govt attorney told me. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc... @theatlantic.com
