New on Knock: Trump calls the homeless a blight and demands that they be jailed or swept out of the city. He’s late to the party; LA officials like Traci Park have pushed the same line for years. Let’s reckon with the fascism in our backyard—@cartermoon.bsky.social

UPDATE: A Judge said the Trump administration is "absolutely forbidden" from removing "Mr. Abrego Garcia from the continental United States."
Trump's lawyer responded with: "Your honor, yes, we certainly understand that."

Bernie Sanders did in fact find out about the attack on Iran during his speech in Tulsa. This is that gut wrenching moment when he stopped his speech and announced Trump’s post then informed the audience that we are now at war with Iran. Sanders made clear it’s unconstitutional.

This is a timeline of the union busting practices that have occurred in the recent weeks. Managers are still using problematic, union busting rhetoric in staff and 1:1 meetings. We await response from management on our 2nd and 3rd demands: stop union busting and reinstate Fátima Murrieta. #ItsTime

My colleagues and I are only asking for what’s fair and right, and that starts with recognition of our union by management.
Management states they will provide a response by EOD tomorrow, 4/24. Thank you for your support. #ItsTime

The WGA staff works incredibly hard on behalf of the membership. I support their unionization and hope the guild will voluntarily recognize their union.

RFK Jr: "It used to be that everybody got measles. And the measles gave you lifetime protection against measles infection. The vaccine doesn't do that ... it used to be that very young kids were protected by breast milk. Women who get vaccinated do not provide that level of immunity."

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more.
The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law.
No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

Any candidate talking about "healing the divide" or "bringing people together" from this point forward needs to get laughed out of the room. Let's win the war first and we'll sort that shit out later.
If we DO have a 2028 election, the qualifying question for the primaries must be "How will you destroy the fascist movement for generations"

Whenever anybody claims "rap isn't real music" or similar, I can't help but remember that ppl thought Mozart's operas were too vulgar for the ears of polite ladies, Van Gogh was a hack, and Shakespeare just a commercial playwright. You don't know what history will put a halo around

Also, if Democrats truly believe Trump will blunder into some future economic disaster, they should START YELLING ABOUT HIM NOW. Think back to the Iraq War: the people who denounced it early profited, while the people who waited for it to become unpopular suffered the rest of their careers.

i got death threats for writing about game of fucking thrones. be serious.
Gillibrand on WNYC today said one reason they're all falling in line is that they get death threats.
cassidy changing his tune after what he said on the senate floor is what has upgraded my position from "they are being bribed" or "they are worried about primary challenges" to "they are worried about being murdered"

Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins slams the Trump admin’s NIH cuts as “poorly conceived” and says she has called RFK to “to express my strong opposition to these arbitrary cuts in funding for vital research.” She says he promised to “re-examine this initiative” if confirmed as HHS secretary.
