They Didn’t Have to Do This By passing Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act, congressional Republicans have talked themselves into an incomprehensibly reckless plan.

β€œCongress is about to impose massive harm on tens of millions of Americans,” @jonathanbchait.bsky.social writes, β€œin order to benefit a handful of other Americans who least need the help. The bill almost seems designed to generate a political backlash”:

Not all of us, just the republicans. We need a few more votes in the house and the senate to block their daily BS.

β€œA U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing.

Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.

Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.

Kristi Noem thinks her lie about Sen. Padilla not identifying himself is a real own when, in fact, her supposed inability to recognize a US Senator--who is the chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship & Border Safety--makes her goons' thuggery even more disgraceful.

American Panopticon The Trump administration is pooling data on Americans. Experts fear what comes next.

Trump and DOGE are not just undoing decades of privacy measures: They appear to be ignoring that they were ever written.

ICE Agents and Border Patrol took hard working migrants at gun point while seeking employment. If you have been impacted & need help call my office at 909 481-6474.
I’m introducing the Fairness to Freedom Act, a bill to establish the right to legal representation while in immigration proceedings.

Exclusive: Immigrants falsely labeled dead by the Social Security Administration are showing up at field offices with documents proving they are alive, leading staff to reinstate nearly three dozen people over the past week, according to records obtained by The Post.

The Theft, Harm, and Presidential Grift of Privatizing the National Weather ServiceΒ  Our investment in National Weather Service is repaid many times over in economic benefit.

"The country has invested in, and innovated through, this scientific public service for over a century, not for selling it to the highest bidder, but for the common good. Dismantling NOAA and the National Weather Service is a presidential grift that we must oppose."

Opinion | What Autocrats Want From Academics: Servility In 1931, Italian scholars were made to take loyalty oaths. Will that happen to us?

"On October 8, 1931, a law went into effect requiring every Italian university professor to sign an oath pledging their loyalty to the government of Benito Mussolini. Out of over 1,200 professors in the country, only 12 refused. All of them were immediately fired." www.chronicle.com/article/what...
