Marriott’s CEO said it straight: β€œWe welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”

He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying β€œthank you.”

Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.

Marriott still has my business.

Rejected at her door, ICE nabs a Maryland woman in her car after smashing her window Video shows a U.S. ICE agents breaking the window of a Maryland woman, Elsy Noemi Berrios, after failing to detain her at home.

β€œMommy, no. Mommy.”

Daughter captures the moment masked ICE agents smash the window of her mother's car in order to take her into custody.

The government claims the 52-year old seamstress is an associate of the MS-13 gang.

Secretary Hegseth must resign. He lied.

Now, we have new reporting about Hegseth’s wife. If the White House doesn't provide more facts, then this raises all sorts of red flags.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?

X is not worth 33 billion. He basically just paid himself $33B from another company, presumably to pay off his debts from the initial buy because he knows he'll never be able to raise the capital from X itself.

He is his own ponzi scheme.

Martial Law.

It’s the elephant in the room.

It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them.

It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for.

Jeffrey Goldberg didn't ask to be added to this heinous signal chat. Mike Waltz, a guy whose LITERAL job is to KEEP SECRETS FOR THE COUNTRY added him because he's INCOMPETENT. Now these freaks have the audacity to go after him for publishing the chats THEY INVITED HIM TO? Fuck out of here.

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos.

Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

The men disappeared to El Salvador because of their tattoos The Trump administration sent Venezuelans to El Salvador’s most infamous prison. Their families are looking for answers.

The full story is here, and it includes multiple other cases of people, including other people who entered at ports of entry (not illegally) who were clearly detained and shipped to El Salvador solely on the basis of their tattoo and nothing more. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
