🚨"The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. ‘HANG THEM’

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side."

History will remember who didn’t.

ICE has arrested about 600 immigrants in the city of Chicago. You know how many of them have criminal records? Sixteen.

They promised to secure the border and remove anybody who was violent — and they lied.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."

For once, I believe him.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

The capitulation of higher ed to this segregationist purging is why I decided to liberate my work and teach independently in this moment.

Lawlessness is intentionally removing prisoners from the US courts' jurisdiction so you have no accountability when you deprive them of their rights and do other awful things to them.

The thing you monsters forgot: The courts still have jurisdiction over YOU for doing that.

Trump told America he had a deal with far-right El Salvadoran dictator Nayib Bukele to temporary hold U.S. deportees for a fee.

Now we know that was a lie.

Trump told Bukele he'd _sell_ him bodies to _own_—to be housed in his massive prison (CECOT) until death.

America is back in the slave trade.

This is the most important thing that I read today.
Barack Obama just delivered a blistering takedown of Trump's lawlessness. Importantly, Obama also offered Dems a way to argue that Trump's dictatorial abuses of power and his imminent wreckage of the economy are the same story.

New piece from me:
newrepublic.com/article/1936...
Obama’s Blistering New Takedown of Trump Gives Dems a Way Forward
In an appearance on Thursday, the former president laid out the connection between Trump’s lawlessness and—yes—the price of eggs. Will other Democrats follow?

Cory Booker is such a great example of healthy masculinity. He has talked about how much he loves so many people. He’s not afraid of showing emotions.

And he has been standing for over 24 hours because of something he believes deeply in.

More of this.

We are not the first to fight for rights, against tyranny, to have our heads bent in humility. We will not be the last to fight for our lives and defend the vulnerable. But we WILL be the generation who honors those who got us here and we will inspire those who will carry on the fight behind us.
