Trump says the US is in "armed conflict" with drug cartels.

Meanwhile, his DOJ is disbanding a task force that took on cartels.

Trump doesn't care about stopping drug trafficking — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

This is a power grab.

What we are experiencing feels less like the Civil War and more like military Reconstruction carried out by the Radical Republicans, only this time the locals resisting the occupying forces are doing so to protect multi-racial democracy rather than white supremacy.

I don't know where this revisionism has come from about the suffragettes - people saying "if the suffragettes were around today, they'd be considered terrorists."

The suffragettes were arrested and tortured, sexually assaulted and beaten by the state. They *were* considered terrorists!

Healthcare Stocks underperforming the S&P 500 by the largest margin in history 🚨

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

A majority of Trump supporters back extending Obamacare subsidies, poll finds Without the tax credits, people will lose coverage, putting their health and finances at risk, experts say.

78% of Americans, and 57% of MAGA Republicans, want Congress to keep HealthCare.gov plans affordable by keeping tax credits at the same level.

Republicans are out of touch with their own voters and need to come to the table to end this shutdown.

The soldiers had "the design of committing some gross injury to his Family, in the prosecution of which they beat his Wife and Daughter, the latter of whom in so severe a manner as would be shocking to humanity to repeat; and destroyed some of his property." 2/2

Albany in the late 1700s

Oct. 4, 1775: A complaint of a serious crime by American soldiers in Albany, N.Y., is relayed to Gen. David Wooster. "A party of Troops under Your Command last Night made an attempt to force the House of one Mr. Low, an inhabitant of this City," reads a letter sent to him. 1/2

BREAKING: Federal judge BLOCKS a new ICE policy that went into effect last week to automatically detain unaccompanied migrant children on their 18th birthday when they “age out” of shelter care.

The TRO enforces a court order in a case brought by @immcouncil.org and @immigrantjustice.bsky.social.

This is all they want. They don’t care about a trial or a conviction.

Nothing in ICE’s tweet contradicts anything in my thread. The guy had traffic violations from “years ago”. That does not make him a criminal. ICE does not even try to rebut the other facts bsky.app/profile/davi...

Illinois State Police have been documented aiding ICE at the Broadview, Illinois facility. While state law (the Illinois TRUST Act) bars troopers from directly enforcing immigration law, they have joined ICE

Supreme Court lets Noem end legal status for many Venezuelans in the U.S. The majority gave virtually no reasoning. The Democratic appointees objected, but only Justice Jackson wrote: "[Y]et another grave misuse of our emergency docket."

The Supreme Court’s majority has — in a total of five paragraphs over two orders — allowed Noem’s effort to end TPS for Venezuelans to proceed in opposition to seven rulings from seven judges, amounting to 227 pages of opinions.

No, numbers and pages aren’t ultimately what matters. But ...

An interesting point raised elsewhere: these boats that the United States is striking don't appear to have the fuel capacity/storage capacity to even reach American shores.

ICE officers stopped a family at gunpoint and smashed the car window on top of the newborn baby. “I was screaming that there was a baby,” cried the mother. “But they didn’t care,” and covered the baby with their bodies, fearing that the glass would hurt him.

This is good messaging.

starting to think there might just be some thing rather damning in these epstein files
it is just a feeling i am starting to get based on current events and these strenuous efforts to hide them by some individuals

Very possibly no political official in history has made so much corrupt money at a pace like this. Mobutu and Marcos looted a greater share of their countries’ wealth over decades but in absolute terms and in speed, Trump shamelessly puts them to shame.

Reality check: Under federal law, undocumented people are not eligible to enroll in Medicare and Medicaid. Let’s stay focused on the truth and work together on a deal to reopen the government and prevent Americans’ health care costs from skyrocketing.

Not all employers provide healthcare. The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour, how on earth can they pay healthcare out of pocket?

So many Americans are being injured physically, morally, and financially, that it’s hard to believe there isn’t a huge roaring wave of dissent.
Where is it? What form will it take? Who will lead the charge?
We desperately need someone to personify and give voice to the values and qualities we miss.

No. Presidents until now have mostly attempted to implement campaign promises. Politicians get into office and generally attempt to do what they said they'd do - so much so that it's a scandal, when they break their word.

But Trump just literally had a secret plan to destroy the government!
