It's becoming clear that our current administration aren't trying to take us back to the 1950sβ€”they're aiming further back, more like the 1850s.

Taco Belle has no pet. No dog or cat or even a fish. Having a pet requires caring for someone other than yourself.

The Prime Minister of a sovereign country came to the United States today and actually had to tell the President of the United States - to his face - that his sovereign country wasn’t for sale. And would never be for sale.

That actually happened today.

State Terror A brief guide for Americans

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps.
This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped"

Happy Jackie Robinson Day. It is important to remember our history. All of it. He who forgets the past is doomed to repeat it.

All the years whilst I was becoming an adult citizen of this nation I was taught that these concepts were fundamental rights of all human kind. Now what’s worse, our present administration’s blatant disregard of these rights or our populous’ abandonment of their belief in them.

In a related move, the Justice Department barred its lawyers from attending American Bar Association events, intensifying the Trump administration’s ongoing conflict with the legal profession over the issue of client representation.

I am so sorry to hear this. I have experienced this from an unrelated issue. Government shouldn’t be adding to a citizens everyday stress. This is just cruel.

Innocent (In a Brutal Prison) Abroad The Trump administration’s latest stain on our values: sending a man without a conviction to a country where a judge ruled he couldn’t be sent.

β€œThe administration admits in its court filing that it β€œwas aware of this grant of withholding of removal” at the time it violated that court order and sent Abrego Garcia off to prison in El Salvador anyway.”

An β€˜Administrative Error’ Sends a Maryland Father to a Salvadoran Prison The Trump administration says that it mistakenly deported an immigrant with protected status but that courts are powerless to order his return.

Paul Weiss needs to (and probably will) file a very similar suit on Monday, have it assigned to the same judge a a related case, and ask for an immediate injunction. Law firms must fight back and fight hard.

New democratic leadership is needed in the Senate. People should call their senator and explain that they will withhold all contributions to fund raising until a new leader is voted on.

@schumer.senate.gov Vichy schumer. You need to be replaced as leader of our party in the Senate.

Democrats need to reach out and empower millennials and gen z in the party and government as they are feeling excluded. Baby boomers should lend their knowledge but need to step aside.

Stand UP.
Speak UP.
Act UP.
Rise UP.

This administration does NOT know a thing about government.

They are WRONG to push the "government is business" principle on US all.

Government is NOT business.

Business will do NOTHING for ANYONE who needs help.

That's what government does.

Fire trump.

If you’re feeling like it’s wiser to be silent, or not repost, or not go to that event β€” that’s a sign that you MUST. Obeying in advance will make today seem ripe with hopeful possibilities a year from now. The only way out is to be loud and uncompromising.

Democrats should be holding a daily press briefing from Capital Hill All the press should be invited. It should be an absolute must for the Democrats. There also should be ground teams in each state listening and reaching out to voters.

Typically I assume Trump is just lying, but he probably really is this ignorant. Worse still, he has no desire to learn anything, and neither do his supporters.
