It's hard to fathom that anyone thinks ICE can be reformed or retrained. ICE needs to be dismantled and then cauterized so it can't grow back. #AbolishICE

Showing up and taking the 5th is not contemptuous, it’s a constitutional right. NOT showing up at all like Jim Jordan didn’t when he was subpoenaed? THAT is contempt.

This is one of my favorite paintings and it currently doesnt exsist on the internet. Its in a private collection so you cant see it in a museum and its impossible to get a print of. Ive had it saved to my phone for years from the original French auction site listing that no longer exists.

This story is crazy. It would appear Trump admin officials rigged their nationally televised high school civics contest to keep a young man from a Sikh family out of the finalists. www.notus.org/national/ame...

America’s finest young scholars competed to mark their country's birthday. It led to a disputed finish in the age of mistrust.

Reading about the Obama Center opening, seeing photos, videos, hearing speeches, reading commentaries confirmed a STARK contrast between two presidents. DJT's is consumed with hate, anger, delusions of grandeur and getting retribution. He is evil. He's NOT presidential. He needs to be removed.

This is only the beginning. He has no plans to leave office or allow free elections. Nor are his plans hidden—they're all unfolding in plain sight. The Insurrection never ended and the Christofascists won't stop until our democracy is gone. Choose who you'll be in this moment.

When Trump pulled out of the international nuclear agreement with Tehran in 2018, Iran lacked even a single bomb's worth of uranium. Since then, it accumulated 22,000 pounds of enriched uranium. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

How Iran Accumulated 11 Tons of Enriched Uranium
Two months after the United States began a war meant to prevent Iran from ever building an atomic bomb, the fate of its stockpile of enriched uranium remains a mystery.

(🚨) We’re mere *hours* from a constitutional crisis of historic proportions—and many Americans don’t seem to realize it. Why? Because nearly no corporate media outlet will properly report on it. So please consider sharing this new report widely.

Trump’s Second Iran War Becomes Illegal May 1
Contrary to claims by the New York Times, U.S. law doesn’t grant Trump authority to “give himself an extension” on a war already illegal under international law. His Iran war becomes illegal on May 1.

A year ago we were supposed to be getting $2,000 rebate checks, DOGE was going to find $2 trillion in waste to balance the budget, we were going to pay no income taxes because tariffs would pay for everything, gas and home electric bills would be cut in half, and no new wars.

Again, this is FALSE. Administrative warrants are NOT signed by an immigration judge (or any judge at all). They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves with no external oversight whatsoever. Here is a blank sample warrant. Note who signs off on it; an "immigration officer."
A copy of a blank administrative warrant. The only person who signs it at the end is an "immigration officer."

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk. Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared. Well, here’s a link: georgetown.box.com/v/Vladeck-IC...

Two members of Elon Musk's DOGE team working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with an advocacy group seeking to "overturn election results in certain states," and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls.
