It's a serious disgrace to see the President of the United States roll out the red carpet for a foreign dictator who ordered the killing of a Washington Post journalist.

If you're a professor at Texas A&M, you'll need to receive written authorization from the university president before discussing this incident on campus.

This is the new playbook:
Commit misconduct -> claim persecution -> sue the government -> cash out.

If this becomes normalized, every corrupt official will try to hit taxpayers with their legal bills. And yet somehow, almost no one is talking about it.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

If Epstein’s claims are true, Trump lied about his involvement & knew about the abuse

Bondi & Blanche, Trump’s former personal lawyers in DOJ, ignored their duties to the Constitution & victims

This is corruption, plain & simple

I broke it down on @weeknightmsnbc.bsky.socialπŸ‘‡ - TN

Growing list of reasons Trump should step down:
- Cover up of his involvement in notorious sex trafficking ring
- Unprecedented corruption, self enrichment
- Tariffs are historic, unprecedented abuse of power
- Illegal desecration of most important global symbol of American democracy

Poverty is a policy decision.

Concentrated wealth is a policy decision.

Inequality is a policy decision.

Remember this.

They weren't terrorists. They weren't cartel members. They had no fentanyl. And they weren't coming here.

They were transporting cocaine. To Trinidad.

Most importantly, they were human beings.

And they were murdered.

By the government of the United States of America.

β€˜You Are All Terrorists’: Four Months in a Salvadoran Prison

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.

Brooklyn
East Granby
Ellington
Enfield
Farmington
Milford
New Britain
New Fairfield
Norwich
Plymouth
