As always: if there's any class of people who do not have due process rights, then *nobody* has due process rights, because the government can just claim someone is in that class and there's no process to establish otherwise.

No one should mistake that not only did the vast majority of these defendants do *nothing but show up to a protest* but several are trans women who will now spend the rest of their lives being tortured by the state. This was targeted. This was a show trial.

The world's first trillionaire received 38 Billion Dollars from the US government. But, no, we won't have enough money to pay for school lunches for your kids. Or give you healthcare. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Donating millions to the people who are supposed to be investigating you. I see.
Screenshot of an X post from New York Times journalist Ana Swanson (@AnaSwanson) reporting that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick donated $5 million to House Republicans on April 1 - after agreeing to be interviewed by lawmakers about his connections to Jeffrey Epstein, but before that testimony took place. The post includes a photo of Lutnick and links to an article titled "Lutnick Donated $5 Million to House Republicans Before Epstein T..."

We didn't ruin the economy. We didn't get you laid off. We didn't replace you with AI. We didn't raise gas prices. We didn't foreclose your home. We didn't cause your divorce. We didn't get your kid snatched by ICE. We aren't in the Epstein files. Leave us the fuck alone.

Trump said he had a strong game plan to keep energy markets stable. The plan failed. Oil is soaring. Gas is climbing. Families are suffering. A strong game plan does not create economic chaos. A strong game plan does not require emergency meetings to fix its own damage. #TrumpsGasProblem

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

“I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.” aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...
I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.

Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.

An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.

Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god
The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken.  How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."
