Americans Held in Venezuela Swapped for Men Trump Sent to Salvadoran Megaprison Read more here.

Trump deported hundreds of Venezuelans to a Salvadoran megaprison earlier this year. On Friday, they were quietly swapped for 10 Americans jailed by Maduro.

The same men the U.S. claimed it couldn’t bring back are now part of a deal brokered behind closed doors.

Election Day Is Every Tuesday July 15 I titled it July 15, cause there are multiple elections this week, but they’re all on Tuesday.

There are elections tomorrow and it’s more than just AZ. There is a STATEWIDE election in GA with a really bad candidate in a runoff. There is an election in Ward 8 for DC city Council, which is basically their only representation. And then there are elections in FL and SC as well.

On a call with @housedemocrats.bsky.social and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social just said β€œpeople are going to die, this is a crime scene”

No better way to describe this bill imo. It really is that simple.

We are at the end of the line, we have now gotten the okay to call republicans even if they arent in your district. But start with your own state. @frost.house.gov also said that what could be even more powerful than calling is sending faxes because they might unplug their phone line,

β€œWe’ve got about 26 Republican targets. We need four of them. This is not a done deal.β€œ

@ezralevin.bsky.social highly encourages you to stop doomscrolling and start contacting your representative. We can still defeat Trump’s Tax Scam and save Medicaid and SNAP: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Who is going to stop him? Republicans don't care or are scared stiff. Our country is going to hell because of him and them.

Is it too soon to begin discussing all the members of the Trump regime who should be held criminally liable once the Republicans have been removed from power?

🚨UPDATE: New evidence filed by the ACLU last night shows that the Trump administration is going forward with more Alien Enemies Act deportations in seeming violation of the Supreme Court's clear command that people be provided a "meaningful" opportunity to seek judicial review.

"There is a reason totalitarian states so often ban singing and dancing and it is the same reason those communal habits have died out in the US. Bringing them back is resistance. Being optimistic and happy is resistance. Reaching out and connecting with each other is resistance."
