Should be wild that the vast majority of Americans don't give a shit about your kids being murdered regularly by guns. Polls may say they do, but the way Americans vote say otherwise.

They vote for Republicans that don't give a shit, or Dems that refuse to put any effort into ending gun violence.
Trump: "I've been fully briefed on the Brown University situation. What a terrible thing it is. All we can do right now is pray for the victims." (Trump falsely posted that the shooter is in custody.)

There has never been, and there will never be, a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

The reason for this is that—under Netanyahu—Israel is a genocidal rogue state whose signature on any document is meaningless.

American media did Trump a solid by pretending that a wholly illusory ceasefire exists.

As a Brown alumnus, I am utterly heartbroken. The Brown campus has always been a place for chasing dreams, not dodging bullets

But it’s just as gutting as Uvalde, Newtown or hundreds of other mass shooting, in a nation where Congress disappeared for 2 months and the president is building a ballroom

Kristi Noem claimed a few months ago that they arrested the girlfriend of the leader of Antifa and that was going to lead to the prosecution of the entire “organization.” What happened with that? Any updates?

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.

This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.

Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

Democrats, we need to talk.

These 8 senators let themselves get played by Republicans on reopening the government, and every one of us knew exactly how this would go. They handed Republicans the only leverage we had in the healthcare fight.

It was genuinely an honor to meet Mr. Chavarria at Tuesday's hearing. His story is incredible; grew up in a refugee camp in Honduras, graduated as a valedictorian at 15, got scholarships in the US, met his husband here, became a US citizen, and is now a school superintendent in Vermont.
Chavarria, a U.S. citizen, was held at the airport "for more than four hours and released only after he finally agreed to let the agents search his smartphone, tablet, and laptop computer. The agents...informed him that he had no Fourth Amendment right to resist." @pacificlegal.bsky.social is suing.
CBP agents held this U.S. citizen for hours until he agreed to let them search his electronic devices
A federal lawsuit argues that perusing travelers' personal data without a warrant or probable cause violates the Fourth Amendment.

People breathe a sigh of relief that the judiciary is holding, but it's just a lesson that the confederates need to degrade it more in order to completely destroy America, the country that refused to bow to them. They did the same thing with the civil service. They learn.
It's hard to know exactly what will happen now, given how unprecedented this is. But Trump and Miller envisioned this as a test of their ability to spread fear of lawless state terror. For now, the lower courts are admirably defending the rule of law. 5/5

The idea that others are using unfair advantages to get ahead is a core element of both Trumpism and anti-immigration rhetoric. Letting rich people and businesses ostentatiously buy U.S. residency is as explicit a shortcut as you’ll find.

Another way Trump drives up your costs?

He sidelined the cops who make sure banks and payday lenders follow the law.

Last year those cops ordered more than a billion dollars returned to Americans who were cheated.

This year Trump is letting the cheaters keep YOUR money.

For Trump and Miller, the Abrego Garcia case was a crucial gauge of how far they could get in disappearing undesirables and placing them beyond the law entirely.

Judge Xinis' ruling is important in that context. It calls out Trump's lawless conduct throughout. 2/
