Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”

Trump is honestly the dumbest guy… or he’s got another agenda.

It’s been a year of Putin lying to him, and Trump believing it.

I get it maga, he hates the people you hate. But he’s an embarrassment to our nation on the world stage

So no insurance — but 2K to cover all medical expenses

For how long?

Medications also?

This is the “concept” of a healthcare plan Trump cooked up on the 11th hole sand trap?

ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways:

First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices.

Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

Republicans have massively cut health care and refused to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits.

It's time they stop their government shutdown and work with Democrats to save health care.

BREAKING: Trump is effectively pulling back from NATO just as Russia begins violating the sovereignty of NATO nations like Poland, and Estonia.

The Pentagon has just informed European diplomats the US will partially halt military assistance to Baltic nations and NATO states bordering Russia.

Gallup Poll: Trump’s approval at 37%.
Disapproval at 58%.

Only 19% of independents like how he has handled the federal budget.

An extra 4 trillion in debt for a bunch of tax cuts for the wealthy?

Oops. They noticed.

Just remember...there was absolutely nothing normal about the United States Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell. Nothing. Not by protocol. Not by precedent. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

Sundog, a memecoin by crypto billionaire Justin Sun, just posted a meme depicting its mascot controlling the White House. Sun has spent (or will shortly spend) a total of $213 million on Trump-connected crypto projects.

Without probable cause or reasonable suspicion, ICE and Border Patrol cannot just go into parks, Home Depots, and other public spaces just to round up Brown people.

That is flat out illegal.

ICE is basically going after people based on their skin color, race, or ethnicity. They’re detaining U.S. citizens and people who have a right to be here.

It’s mass racial profiling.

They were supposed to be deporting “gang members” and “criminals.”

So far, they have kidnapped people working their day jobs and folks lawfully showing up for their immigration court appearances…

It was always a lie.

The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers.

Easy money, no risk.

Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime.

@jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

A Letter to Americans Still on the Sidelines, on the Eve of 'No Kings Day' Dear Friend,

I’m just asking you to pause or reflect or pray and to ask yourself the questions: What kind of person do I tell myself I am; about what matters to me, about the people I care about, about the mark I want to make on the world while I’m here?

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.
