Masked men — presumably loathsome secret police from ICE or CBP — beat this guy bloody before disappearing him. Father of three U.S. Marines.

Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

A Democratic Mayor arrested.

A Democratic Congresswoman indicted.

A Democratic Senator tackled and detained.

A Democratic State Representative killed.

A Democratic State Representative in critical condition.

We can all see where this is going.

Why one deportation case has legal scholars afraid for even U.S. citizens : Consider This from NPR The Trump administration admitted that it wrongfully deported a man named Kilmar Abrego Garcia.It had also been arguing that courts cannot compel the U.S. government to return him to this country.The ...

Lawyers across the country, including me, are ringing the bell as loud as we possibly can about the fact that the Abrego Garcia case signals the end of our democracy.

The vicious, fascistic lies Trump, Bondi, Miller, and Homan have told about it underscore that they know exactly what they're doing.

There is not voter fraud issue. You’re either for voter disenfranchisement or an idiot. Not ruling out the possibility of both.

We should offer the precise number of pardons needed to impeach this entire administration. Everyone else held fully accountable. Do the right thing or beware.

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.

This man is out of control.

It's clearly going to take a judge putting him in cuffs for him to understand even the most basic operations of the United States government.

All must understand that it's not OK for an executive branch official to say this, not OK to act like this, not OK whatsoever.

Many caveats here.

I don't understand much of this myself. I'm only trying to learn—not come to conclusions.

I post this only to ask if anyone with relevant expertise has seen this video—and its many charts—and finds it compelling.

(Do ignore the splashy title—this is a dry and sober assessment.)

Breaking it, then profiting off the *fix*

The same way they profit off of education privatization… health care… etc…

They count on you not realizing it. You are their piggy bank.

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

@sethabramson.bsky.social hey Seth, as a NH resident I’m dumbfounded how our D senators could vote for project 2025 author to OMB. Any idea why they’d sell us out like this?

We don’t need to blame the crash on Trump or MAGA.

We SHOULD show people how his administration will cause more accidents.
