🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.”

WOW. Planes in air must turn around.

A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

Literally.

These two clowns 🤡 🤡

1/ We are building the movement on micro actions. Thank you for setting an example, Chris.

Micro actions are snowballing & if we keep building there will be an inflection point where the snowballs explode into an unstoppable tsunami of action.

We need to call elected reps & urge support of …

"It's important to periodically critically assess what the richest man in the world is saying as he continually tries to justify chopping the government up and selling it for parts like this is a private equity takeover." Read this from @nathantankus.bsky.social www.crisesnotes.com/i-asked-form...

A pilot’s view on why helicopter did not avoid passenger jet in Washington crash In order to enable safe flight, airspace is split into categories ranging from very tightly controlled areas around airports to other zones – mostly rural – where rules are much more relaxed.

I’m not a pilot-so there was insight in this article I thought I’d share.

Command an Autonomous Black Hawk Helicopter from 300 Miles Away How do you command a Black Hawk® helicopter to perform a mission autonomously from 300 miles (480 km) away? Quite simply, by using a tablet connected to the aircraft via datalink.

Blackhawks can be controlled remotely. Maybe it was a hit job.

Kash Patel confirmation hearing: Dick Durbin asks Patel if he’s familiar with Stew Peters—a right-wing fringe conspiracy theorist. Patel: <long pause> Not off the top of my head. Durbin: You’ve made eight appearances on his podcast.

Trump’s accomplishments thus far:

• Fired the head of the TSA

• Federal freeze in hiring ATC

• Fired 100 FAA security officers

You can’t do all of these things and then claim you’re distraught over a crash.

It happened there: how democracy died in Hungary A new kind of authoritarianism is taking root in Europe — and there are warning signs for America.

I saved this article in 2018 because I thought “my God, this is exactly what’s going on in the United States” 😔 I honestly don’t know the answer to “what do we do to save our country from this?”

Insanity.

Of course ending birthright citizenship is blatantly unconstitutional. So is a third term in office.

But I thought the same thing about presidential criminal immunity and holding office after inciting an insurrection.

The obvious is not so obvious anymore.

I’ve had a few really exciting days of my 56 year life, but I’ve never been excited enough to throw a Sieg Heil, TWICE.

My heart is heavy for our country. 🇺🇸

Yikes! I just got an AI sales call. It would’ve been painfully real if every third question wasn’t, “You still there?” 🤣Have you ever received one that was almost ‘real”?

I survived Thanksgiving. DJT was mentioned alongside a degrading comment of those who did not support him. I stood up and said “I am a Democrat!” Half the faces smiled the rest-eyes got big. I was glad that I said what I did. Over 74 million people voted for Kamala Harris. I was one of them.

Here’s another perspective on each country’s contribution to the war in Ukraine.

Thoughts? I still cannot accept that DJT, a man that could not fill ANY venue and mimicked a bj on a microphone won this election. I will never believe it.

Me too 😔
