Chicago we need you to step up and step out on June 14th! Whether you're outraged by attacks on civil rights, skyrocketing costs, abductions and disappearances, the gutting of essential services, or the assault on free speech—this moment is for you. @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social @chirpradio.org

Exclusive | Donors Promised ‘VIP Experience’ at Military Events With Trump Top donors to a committee supporting events celebrating America’s 250th birthday will receive special access to a military parade and other festivities.

Giving political donors “dedicated VIP experiences” with the US military is not only corrupt, it will damagingly make Americans think of our military as partisan. Congress should prevent this.

Jesus.

Hell yes.

While Occupant Trump dismantles our agencies, attacks federal workers & veterans, and guts essential programs like Medicaid & SNAP—my GOP colleagues just voted on the Gulf of America Act.

Republicans aren’t serious about governing or doing the people’s work.

No evidence linking Tufts student to antisemitism or terrorism, State Dept. office found An internal memo, prepared before Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk was detained by ICE, raises doubts about the Trump administration’s claims that she supports Hamas.

Trump’s State Department found no evidence linking Rumeysa Ozturk to antisemitic activity or terrorism, but ICE snatched her off the street and dispatched her to a prison 1,000 miles away with no hearing. This is a hallmark of fascist regimes and utterly incompatible with Due Process.

The Supreme Court has unanimously ruled the Trump regime must facilitate the return of a Maryland man wrongly deported to El Salvador.

How lawless do your actions have to be for even Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito to rule against them?

Kirkland & Ellis, Allen Overy Shearman Sterling, Simpson Thatcher, and Latham & Watkins should be viewed as administration shills now. It would be a mistake to engage them in any matter in which your interests and positions are not congruent with this administration’s.

The consistent lack of due process is the thing that keeps me up at night. This is fascism.

The simultaneous crash of the stock market and the bond market is super ominous. But also a totally foreseeable consequence of this insane tariff policy.

So is it incompetence or part of a plan to crash the economy? An increasingly important question.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has announced there will be no election to replace Sylvester Turner, a prominent Black Democrat in Congress, until November. That leaves the largely Black and Hispanic district unrepresented in the US House of Representatives for Abbott’s personal political gain.

WTF?

Elon’s DOGE is expected to come for Homeland Security next — with cuts to critical agencies like the Secret Service and FEMA. Our national security is NOT a game, and Elon sure as hell shouldn’t be the one playing it.

This is what election-rigging looks like.

Holy sh*t

Too little, too late, Joe. What an idiot.

I’m surprised the WaPo allowed negative reporting on the current administration!

NEW — This AM former HHS staffers confronted Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) about slashing budgets and staff, per video shared with me by Mack Schroeder, a former Budget Analyst for the Office of the Secretary. 

Banks tells Schroeder he "probably deserved" to lose his job "because you seem like a clown."

Lets keep amplifying this. Hes doing an amazong job (and being aided by some pretty great allies). Thank you, Senator Booker.

“this will lead to worse health outcomes, greater risks to the US public, and will contribute to the decline in US life expectancy.”

Agreed, and the more we amplify what Booker is doing, the more we make it matter, in public perception and as an example to other elected officials. On the other hand, the more we disparage and tear it down, the more we make it not matter. It's not all up to him.

You are doing amazing work!! Thank you.

Flight bookings from Canada to the US plummet over 70% Amid rising trade tensions, boycotts and travel advisories, Canadians appear to be foregoing trips to the U.S.

Flight bookings from Canada to the U.S. have plunged by more than 70 percent under Trump. Last year, Canadians made more than 20 million visits to the US and contributed about $20.5 billion to the U.S. economy.

Fascism much?

Also, historical note: When President Lincoln *actually suspended* habeas corpus under the Suspension Act of 1863, he was required to provide lists of all people detained who were not POWs to the circuit court. He complied. While prosecuting an *actual war*. (This is Milligan)
