The ICE abductions continue. Late Friday night, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to bring back a Guatemalan man who was deported to Mexico, even after he reported the violence he faced there. He is gay and now living in hiding back in Guatemala, fearing for his life.

The FTC’s new investigation into Media Matters is just the latest example of the Trump regime targeting its critics. Media Matters is a liberal watchdog group that published research showing ads for major brands appearing next to antisemitic and hateful content on X.

The Supreme Court today allowed Trump to temporarily remove the leaders of two independent agencies, setting up a direct challenge to the legal principle that limits a president’s power to fire officials at will.

More are expected to follow as early as Sunday. Each night, their responsibilities for monitoring conditions and issuing warnings will be handed off to neighboring offices. For a workforce deeply committed to its lifesaving mission, the crisis has pushed morale and resilience to the breaking point.

Prices are rising nationwide and Trump’s gaslighting everyone about why. His tariffs and failed policies are driving costs up. He’s spent $200 billion more in his first 100 days than the same period last year, delivering less to Americans at a greater cost.

Library of Congress staff just showed what resistance looks like. After Trump abruptly fired Dr. Carla Hayden, the respected Librarian of Congress, he tried to install Todd Blanche, his former personal lawyer and current Deputy Attorney General, as acting librarian. Staff weren’t having it.

We strongly advise the public not to do this, it’s unsafe. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. posted photos of himself and his grandkids swimming in Rock Creek, a Washington waterway so contaminated with sewage runoff that swimming has been banned citywide for over 50 years.

Trump said in an interview today that he wasn’t sure if everyone on American soil is entitled to due process, despite clear constitutional guarantees.

- Labor: -35%

Despite promises of cuts from Trump and Elon, the U.S. spent about $220 billion more in the first 100 days than it did last year. We’re spending far more and getting far less. So where is all the money going?

When even a moderate Republican like Senator Lisa Murkowski says, β€œWe are all afraid,” it tells you everything you need to know about the state of our country.

simply because their research didn’t align with the administration’s narrative. Let that sink in: the federal government is pressuring a medical journal over what it’s allowed to publish. This isn’t about science or national security, it’s about control. It’s about silencing dissent.

Immigrants falsely labeled as deceased by the Social Security Administration are showing up at field offices with documents proving they are alive, prompting staff to reinstate nearly three dozen individuals over the past week. These reversals follow efforts by the DHS and Elon Musk’s DOGE Service

Fascism is when a leader uses the power of the state to control or coerce private institutionsβ€”like Trump has tried to do with universities and private companies such as Apple. His attempts to dictate what schools can teach or how businesses should operate are textbook authoritarianism. Harvard

Senator Chris Van Hollen has requested an urgent meeting with President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador to address the situation involving Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man who was β€œmistakenly”deported from the United States to a prison in El Salvador.

A message to the President of El Salvador: You may be following Trump’s leadβ€”but no one gets left behind. If you choose to disrespect our country, our judges, and our Supreme Court, then it’s time for a boycott.

Individuals are being disappeared by the Trump administration. A Maryland man who was legally residing in the United States was deported to El Salvador and subsequently imprisoned due to what officials described as an β€œadministrative error.” In a court filing, the Trump administration argued that

Trump said he was not joking about the possibility of seeking a third term, claiming a lot of people wanted him to pursue it. While he emphasized he was focused on the current, he hinted at the existence of methods to make it happen.
