The #WhiteHouse #RoseGarden wasn’t just a patch of flowers. It was a civic space at the #people’s house. A place #WE built—and sustaine. It isn’t #Trump‘s. He’s our guest. It was a place of continuity, representing #democraticpower. It had to be tended. That was the point. But it’s #gone now.

#DonaldTrump is threatening to start #WWIII and blow up the world because nobody went to his #fascist birthday parade… But Republicans think #women are too irrational and emotionally unstable to serve as #POTUS.

Joni Ernst said “we’re all going to die” when asked about cutting healthcare & food aid. That’s not a gaffe—it’s #ProsperityTheology turned policy. In this theology, suffering is deserved. But the Gospel says the poor are blessed. The last shall be first—not left to die. #Medicaid #SNAP #GOP

1/15 THREAD: Queer Belonging in Trump’s MAGA America 🧵 Why are some gay men—white, affluent, conservative—allying with a movement attacking LGBTQ+ rights? To understand, we have to ask: what does it mean to belong in America? And what are we willing to give up to feel accepted? #QueerPolitics

While Stephen Miller publishes the faces of the judges that struck down Trump’s unlawful tariffs, his own goons in ICE refuse to show theirs out of fear of being publicly identified. If our judges are brave enough to face MAGA threats with their faces showing, ICE should not hide behind masks.

If the U.S. House used UK-style apportionment, we’d have 5,015 House members—not 435. Brits get 1 rep per 67k people. We get 1 per 760k. Locked in for almost 100 years. We don’t need term limits—we need fair representation and competitive elections. #ExpandTheHouse #FixDemocracy #Representation

Trump took an oath to “preserve and protect the #Constitution of the USA.” An oath, that I’ve taken too. If he is unwilling or unable to keep his oath, then he should be considered #illegitimate and he should be #impeachedandremoved. If Congress won’t do it, then it is the people’s responsibility.
Headline: “Trump Says 'I Don't Know' When Asked About Due Process and Upholding Constitution”

“President Trump repeatedly said he didn't know when asked in a TV interview whether every person on American soil was entitled to due process, as guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment.”

In 1770 John Adams defended British soldiers in court to prove a radical idea: justice > rage. Today secret detentions in foreign prisons shred due process and betray everything the American Revolution stands for.

April 15th. In a functioning democratic society that would be a day of celebration, the day you hand in your taxes. You would be saying: 'Alright, we got together, we worked out some plans and programs that we think ought to be implemented and we re now participating in providing the funding to get these things done.'

Through American history, the First Amendment has been defended by voices as diverse as Thomas Jefferson, Eugene Debs, FDR, & MLK Jr. Each of these figures, in their own way, championed the right to speak freely—even when that speech was unpopular, radical, or inconvenient to those in power. 1/🧵

NEW! Sworn declarations filed last night confirm the Trump admin sent INNOCENT people to rot in prison El Salvador, including a professional soccer player jailed and tortured by the Maduro regime, who entered this country LEGALLY to seek asylum, and who has NO CRIMINAL RECORD in either country.
I am the immigration attorney for Jerce Reyes Barrios, born in January 16, 1989 in Venezuela. 2. In February and March 2024, Mr. Reyes Barrios marched in two demonstrations in Venezuela protesting the authoritarian rule of Maduro. At the second demonstration, he was detained and taken to a clandestine building where he was tortured (electric shocks and suffocation) along with other demonstrators. 3. Shortly after his release, he fled Venezuela for the United States. He registered with CBP One in Mexico, then presented himself to CBP officials on the day of his appointment. He was taken into custody and detained at Otay Mesa Detention Facility in September 2024. 4. We applied for asylum, withholding of removal, and CAT protection in December 2024. His final individual hearing is set for April 17, 2025 before Judge Robinson at the Otay Mesa Immigration Court. 5. On March 15, 2025, Mr. Reyes Barrios was deported to El Salvador with no notice to counsel or family. It was not until March 18, 2025 that counsel was able to reach an ICE official and learn that he had in fact been deported. 6. Mr. Reyes Barrios was/is a professional soccer player in Venezuela. He has never been arrested or charged with a crime. He has a steady employment record as a soccer player, as well as a soccer coach for children and youth. 7. Initially, Mr. Reyes Barrios was placed in maximum security at Otay Mesa and accused of being a Tren de Aragua gang member. The accusation is based on two things. First, he has a tattoo on his arm of a crown sitting atop a soccer ball with a rosary and the word "Dies." OHS alleges that this tattoo is proof of gang membership. In reality, he chose this tattoo, because it is similar to the logo for his favorite soccer team Real Madrid. See logo below. [pictures of the tattoo and the pictures of the logo]. 8. Second, OHS reviewed his social media posts and found a photo of Mr. Reyes Barrios making a hand gesture that they allege is proof of gang membership. 9. After submitting a police clearance from Venezuela indicating no criminal record, multiple employment letters, a declaration from the tattoo artist who rendered the tattoo, and various online images showing similar soccer ball/crown tattoos and explaining the meaning of the hand gesture, Mr. Reyes Barrios was transferred out of maximum security. 10. Nevertheless on March 10th or 11th, he was transferred from Otay Mesa to Texas without notice. Then, on March 15, 2025, he was deported to El Salvador. Counsel and family have lost all contact with him have no information regarding his whereabouts or condition.
