Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

Republicans in the Senate voted tonight while no one is watching to fatten Wall Street profits by jacking up overdraft fees on you.

So much for lowering costs.

The Constitution is clear: the President can't arrest people he disagrees with.

By detaining Mahmoud Khalil — a legal permanent resident whose American wife is 8-months pregnant — Donald Trump seeks to undermine basic freedoms.

We must oppose this move toward authoritarianism.

The cover-up…

USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”

The Heritage Foundation wants to know if YOU support what DOGE is doing.

They have some questions:

Do you support $280,000 for “diverse” bird watcher groups?

Do you believe DOGE will be an effective tool for eliminating excessive government spending?

And more!

Feel free to let them know!

Three updates:
1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

we are getting a national version of red state governance, where the people in charge do everything they can to impoverish the state under the view that the more wretched things get, the easier it is for them to stay in power

The Trump administration blamed the dismantling of USAID on its workers’ high levels of “insubordination.” Nothing like gaslighting America.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

The American people deserve an intelligence chief that will stand up to Donald Trump if he gives them a directive to illegally gut funds from watchdogs that oversee intelligence agencies. Tulsi Gabbard refused to answer, which tells you everything you need to know.
WYDEN: If Trump orders you to withhold appropriated funds from the inspector general, would you refuse that illegal order?

GABBARD: I don't believe for a second President Trump would ask me to do something that breaks the law

WYDEN: That's not what I'm asking.

Toxic positivity is pressuring people to look on the bright side. They have to suppress anxiety, anger, sadness, and grief.

Healthy support is shielding people from the dark side. You invite them to express their pain, and show them they're not alone and won't feel it forever.
