Each time a protest is violently shut down, a university is defunded for political reasons, or a person is deported without a fair hearing, the foundation of our democracy cracks just a little bit more. We must all raise our voice in opposition before the damage is irreparable.

Redefining "harm" in the Endangered Species Act could undo decades of habitat protection for threatened species. The public has until May 19 to comment on the Trump Administration proposal to exclude habitat destruction from the definition. An ecologist and a law professor explain: t.co/ETCh3TbTJx

Trump helped make the difference for liberals in Canada and could do the same in Australia. He isn’t building far right momentum globally he’s killing it.

Trump Demands Ukrainian Surrender The Final Punchline of a Failed Negotiation Process

Trump is a Russian Asset.

This is the way the Russian security and intelligence services categorize him according to their own criteria. A Russian assets doesn’t necessarily need to be a witting assets to be run as such. www.avindman.com/p/trump-dema...

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Mourning, Bluesky!!πŸ’œ

Here's a reminder that the regime is disappearing American citizens.

Because 47, Leon, Vance, and Rubio SOLD them to El Salvador and El Salvador has a no refunds policy supposedly. We can't get said citizens back.

We must fight back.

@booker.senate.gov is still on the Senate floor, doing what he can to call attention to the atrocious behaviors of the Shitler Administration.
Booker’s filibuster is a reminder to all of us: GET OUT THERE AND MAKE GOOD TROUBLE!😈

β€˜Scientists will not be silenced’: thousands protest Trump research cuts Researchers at Stand Up for Science rallies voice defiance against the policies of US President Donald Trump’s administration.

The mood was defiant at many of the rallies, where chants of β€œScientists will not be silenced”, β€œFacts over fear” and β€œWhat do we want? Peer review! When do we want it? Now!” were heard.

I am EMBARRASSED to be an American

DEAR PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY
On behalf of America, we APOLOGIZE TO YOU & all of Ukraine.
Your Country did not deserve to be invaded by Russia.

What happened today was an ambush led by Putin's lap dog

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

U.S., Ukraine near deal to grant mineral rights to Washington The potential deal follows days of harsh attacks by President Trump on Ukraine and its leader.

In the #BrokenPost's surrender dictionary, this odious blackmail is merely a "deal."
