I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

NOW: Judge Boasberg has called an emergency hearing regarding the imminent movement of detainees to CECOT in El Salvador. I'm on the public line and I'll post what I can about the hearing here. 1/

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

Odd that nobody is proving that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is still alive.

Did the Trump administration pay to have an unconvicted man assassinated by a foreign authoritarian dictator in a subcontracted concentration camp? We need answers NOW

EU Staff Is Now Using Burner Phones to Evade Trump The European Commission is upping its security measures in Trump’s America.

The United States is a diminished and isolated nation that has lost the trust and respect of its closest allies. That is the MAGA legacy.

Judge: 'Probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations The government sent several planeloads of alleged gang members to El Salvador, including 137 people under the act, the White House said at the time.

YouTube video by CBC News The bizarre way Trump’s team calculated reciprocal tariffs | About That

This video is great - A journalist break downs the highly misleading chart Trump is using to support his tariff policies youtu.be/PWhv-06DNjE?...

“Did it work? Anyone? Anyone know the effects? It did not work”

Breaking, per NBC News @garygrumbach.bsky.social --

Judge Paula Xinis in the District of Maryland has ruled that the United States Government must return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by April 7 at 11:59p

These aren't tariffs. They are a horse's head in the bed of (almost) every world government and business leader.

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year.

This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year.

See what DOGE is really about?

Donald Trump not imposing *any* tariffs on Russia is all the more revealing as he is levying them on our closest ally, the United Kingdom.

Anything to win Putin's affection.

America just shot itself in the nuts to “own the libs”

Yesterday: Lithuanians lined the streets to honor the 4 fallen U.S. soldiers

Today: Trump went to a LIV golf dinner reception instead of being present for their dignified transfer at Dover

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

I needed to hear this. Maybe you do too.

Fixed it for 'em.

Senator Angus King:

"I have to point out, Mr. Chairman, in the hour that we've been sitting here, investors in the United States stock market have lost two and a half trillion dollars."

We warned you of their plan

BREAKING: Senators Chuck Grassley (R) and Maria Cantwell (D) introduce legislation to require all new tariffs to receive Congressional approval.

Show some gratitude to the financial geniuses in the White House, America!

What if you’re so outrageously incompetent you get it done in a matter of minutes?

Breaking: Cory Booker has officially delivered the longest Senate floor speech in US history, surpassing Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against the Civil Rights Act.

Senator Cory Booker puts his hand on his heart in appreciation as the Senate applauds for him for having just broken Strom Thurmond's 24-hour-plus record for the longest speech in the US Senate.

there's no fricking way

While the US is experiencing massive nationwide weather catastrophes, Donald Trump is out golfing to a whopping tune of tens of millions of tax payer dollars.

Protesters are out in Budapest, Hungary today demanding the resignation of pro-Putin Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
