Today, Karoline Leavitt held a briefing with the mom of a young woman who was raped and killed by a Salvadoran man. Leavitt expressed anger that the case received less attention than that of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

It is a horrifying case, and it is also horrifying that Leavitt is exploiting it. 1/

🆘 CALL TO ACTION 🆘 Please contact your congress person & ask them to stop the SAVE Act. It could disenfranchise eligible voters - ie people who changed their names in marriage, young voters, naturalized citizens and tribal residents.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.”

WOW. Planes in air must turn around.

A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

I know it's been on a lot of people's minds, so I looked up martial law as applied to the US and found a pretty well written article by Brennan Center.

Martial Law in the United States: Its Meaning, Its History, and Why the President Can’t Declare It
The concept has never been well understood. What should be clear, however, is that the president lacks the authority to declare it.

Hi everyone

Yesterday, ten senate dems caved to vote for cloture to allow a vote on the disastrous CR bill that was written exclusively by republicans. Regardless if they voted no on the CR itself, allowing the cloture to pass was a yes for the CR bill.

I wasn’t expecting this.
Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer.

"Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

A federal judge in Maryland issued an even more sweeping restraining order on Thursday, surpassing an earlier one from the same day. The order broadly prohibits the Trump administration from implementing any future “reductions in force,” such as this week’s directive to terminate half of the

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence

National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety.

This won’t go well—we love our parks.

I’m still taking this seriously. I did call my reps. But I agree that this is a distraction from the tariffs, Ukraine, and the economy.
Vice-President Dong-mold Chump doesn't have the authority to arrest, expel, or deport students who exercise their Constitutionally-guaranteed First Amendment right to peacefully assemble and peacefully protest. This is noise, this is chaff, this is a distraction.
