Hmmm... Why won't Trump release the Epstein files? πŸ€” It's a real mystery!

Let's also not forget that Trump is running the most corrupt administration in American history, directly profiting from the office. Meanwhile, he empowered the world's richest man to gut federal departments and agencies, including ones investigating his companies.

All of these actions are unconstitutional and/or illegal.

In his first six months, Trump has:

*Started a trade war with the ENTIRE WORLD
*Started a war with Iran
*Deployed the military in the nation's 2nd-largest city while threatening other cities
*Arrested students for protesting
*Sent residents to foreign prisons
*Ignored court orders

There's only one side that doesn't want peace: the side that started the war with its invasion!

Trump says he's powerless to bring back an immigrant his administration deported to El Salvador, defying a court order. This is nonsense.

1) The US sent him there.
2) Trump is (illegally) paying El Salvador to imprison people.
3) Trump bullies world leaders all of the time, unless they're dictators

The whole point of due process is to prevent abuse of power. In our system, the government has to prove its case against you. You are entitled to defense, legal representation, and a trial of your peers.

If you say that someone is not entitled to due process, you're outing yourself as a fascist.

We've seen more scandals, corruption, lawbreaking, and abuses of power from this administration in the first two months than we would normally see in two full terms.

Tufts international graduate student taken into ICE custody The student was reportedly detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials and remains in federal custody, according to an email sent by the university Tuesday evening.

ICE has arrested another legal immigrant for exercising their First Amendment right to protest. This is a full-frontal assault on free speech. These Gestapo-like tactics must be forcefully condemned and challenged in court.

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

The Trump/Musk regime is openly trying to bring back segregation. Musk wants the US to look like his childhood home of apartheid South Africa.

Green card holder from New Hampshire 'interrogated' at Logan Airport, detained Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court.

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.

No one knows why he was detained.

Glad Senate Democrats spent years not doing things to preserve the filibuster only to decide the savvy move is to not use it and give Republicans exactly what they want

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:

β€œIt doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

RFK Jr.: It Would Be Better if β€˜Everybody Got Measles’ β€œThe measles gave you lifetime protection against measles infection,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Sean Hannity on Fox News.

I'm old enough to remember when polio ripped through the globe and put my friends into iron lungs.

We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives.

RFK Jr leading HHS is a disgrace.

The rally after the election and the selloff since the inauguration tells us that investors were either looking for short-term gains or delusional. Wall Street backed a chaos candidate and got chaos. Now they're paying the price (and so is the country).

We need a Navalny, not a Newsom.

No offense intended against mainstream politicians like Newsom.

It’s just that at this point we are way beyond the realm of normal bullshit politics.

β€˜I’m on the side of the workers’: the Minnesota senator calling out Trump and Musk Tina Smith is leaving at the end of her term, and says she would call Musk a dick even if she had to face re-election

β€œI’m on the side of the workers, not the billionaire asshole bosses,” she added.

β€œ.. Musk responded to her, saying: β€˜What did you get done last week?’ to which Smith responded: β€˜I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota.”

This synagogue calls itself 'anti-Zionist.' Here's what that means in practice Tzedek Chicago calls itself anti-Zionist congregation, meaning it does not support a Jewish nation-state.

Raskin: "Really, if we were censuring anyone, it should've been Donald Trump, who I don't think had been back to our chamber since he incited a violence insurrection against us. And then he used his pulpit in order to call a sitting member of the Senate 'Pocahontas.'"
