Senator Alex Padilla was fulfilling his Congressional oversight duties when he was thrown to the ground and handcuffed.

This is no isolated instance; this is a pattern of behavior by the Trump administration.

There is simply no justification for this abuse of authority.

This kind of clear, direct explanation of what’s happening is basic journalism and yet it’s surprising to hear it stated so forthrightly in this mealy-mouthed era.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

We have to stop dividing our problems into “left and right" and start seeing our problems like “top vs bottom.”

737 billionaires in the U.S. have a combined wealth of 5.5 trillion. And they funneled it out of the middle class.

Then Trump keeps us fighting with each other while they steal more.

People on TikTok are reporting ICE raids happening in small cities in various states.

To get past algorithmic censorship, they’re writing down the information on paper and holding up and shuffling through the handwritten signs as they talk about pretend subjects like shopping, food, and animals.

The exact number of federal employees working in DEI roles appears to be unknown, or at least not publicly disclosed. This raises questions: does the Trump administration even know who these employees are or how many exist? If not, how exactly do they plan to identify them? 🤔
