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.

Painted figures haunt an empty building. A boy leaning on a pair of crutches. A father and son wandering a barren railroad track. A nuclear family at a picnic table. These poignant scenes were painted...

Just generally I wish there was more enforcement around scams and fraud. Maybe it’s a drop in the bucket, but enforcing the laws that protect our most vulnerable Americans from financial ruin seems like it’s always a good idea.
"Every six months, Meta earns $3.5 billion from just the portion of scam ads that 'present higher legal risk,' the [Meta] document says, such as those falsely claiming to represent a consumer brand...That figure almost certainly exceeds 'the cost of any regulatory settlement involving scam ads.'”
Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads, documents show
Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, and it internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day, company documents show.

The Republican Party has been unapologetically Nazi for years. It's sickening watching Jews who gleefully embraced this ideology through a decade of Nazi activism, *including multiple synagogue shootings*, to pretend the Heritage remarks are the exception and not the rule of their movement.

The National Task Force to Combat Antisemitism, a project of

I cannot serve under someone who thinks Nazis are worth debating. Here is my resignation letter:

Re: Resiguation from the National Task Force to Combat Antisemitism
To Whom It May Concem:
It is with regret that I write to tender my resignation from the National Task Force to Combat Antisemitism,
a project housed under the auspices of the Heritage Foundation.
When I apreed to join this effort, it was because I believed that combating antisemitism must remain a
nonpartisan moral imperative-
one that transcends politics, ideology, and institutional affiliation. The
Jewish people have too often suffered when fighting hatred became a partisan sport. I hoped that this
initiative could model something better: a principled coalition grounded in shared decency and moral
clanty.
Unfortunately, the recent decision by Heritage leadership to defend and even celebrate Tucker Carlson's
decision to platform Nick Fuentes a figure whose record of overt racism, sexism, and antisemitism is
beyond dispute
makes continued participation impossible. Elevating him, and then attacking those who
object as somehow un-American or disloyal, in a video replete with antisemitic tropes and dog-whistles no
less, is not the protection of free speech: It is moral collapse disguised as courage.
It is especially painful that Hentage, an institution with an historic role in shaping conservative policy,
would choose this moment to blur the line between worthwhile debate and the normalization of hate I have
spent much of my career defending the principle of free expression, including speech I personally abhor
But defending the right to engage in abhorrent thetoric is not the same as endorsing the platforming of those
who use it to dehumanize others. Free speech protects the right to s…](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:itcqruu6tvm4sjbzffscuao6/bafkreifr5wonynyzyi3zsfq6h5lklcbey6w4pmb6xas6qyn7nf2iypemsm@jpeg)
