I’m sure the @harvard.edu young republicans participated. Should be exhibit 1 in the trial when they don’t settle. They used to have to publish it in their weird right wing magazines on campus. Now they hide in telegram.
POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

I wish @unitedairhelp.bsky.social, whose staff in Newark were amazing, could admit the truth. Were delayed for six hours because weather, Trump going to bedminster on AF1 (quite a gaffe while clogging up the sky), and DOGE cuts to FAA causing hour-long back & forth for routes out. #empowerTheTruth

NYTimes headline criticism is always overwrought but you know you have the energy behind you as a democratic socialist if they refuse to say the name Modi rather than “India’s populist prime minister”. Most NYers know if he’s against you then you are probably doing the right thing. #DropOutCuomo
As Zohran Mamdani gets within striking distance of becoming New York City’s first Muslim mayor, he is drawing fire from supporters of India’s populist prime minister, who accuse Mamdani of pushing an anti-Hindu and anti-Indian agenda.

Which is better for the economy?: Roberts/Trump era where these type of facts are being used to suppress trans student rights under the guise of parental rights due to Alito misreading children’s books rather than Warren Court expanding rights era boomers were raised in.

A hard day for those who care about justice. Sharing these words from Rev. William Barber II, who’s long been a moral voice for the poor.

“The passage of this bill is deadly, but it is not a defeat. We must meet it with a resurrection.”

This plus killing a man and his dog, which was only his dog because ICE already arrested his owner. Bring them all back. #Abolish🧊 #freeAndry #freeKilmar
Reading this … it is just nauseating. And clear why they didn’t want Abrego Garcia to return or be free - to tell this story.

This hearing is highlighting just how horrifying the prison porn photos and how the plan currently being carried out by Secretary Noem are entirely unlawful. These clips and quotes should make for great litigation admissions. #bringthemback
KIM: Do you know what section of the Constitution the suspension clause of habeas corpus is in?

NOEM: I do not. Nope.

KIM: Do you know which article is it in?

NOEM: I do not, sir.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 63 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Wow. Cruella shot her dog so this heartlessness shouldn’t be a surprise but it still is. CECOT is acting under a contract with the US. She has jurisdiction here. If she doesn’t it is time to bring them all back to places she does. These were kidnappings.
Andry Romero, a young gay man, was given an asylum appointment by the U.S. Government. When he showed up to the appointment we kidnapped him and sent him to a foreign prison.

I asked Secretary Noem to check if he’s alive. Her response was shameful.

I like that Chris Murphy and Mayor Secretary Pete got the beard memo! Look great and presidential. Although still TeamAOC.
DHS Sec Kristi Noem testifying on DHS budget today, and Sen. Chris Murphy begins by eviscerating everything she's been doing so far.

The entire reason we set up independent agencies, etc was so one man did not have all the power and manage all rules which he is proving (with this quote) is impossible
It's called The Unitary Executive, look it up!

In his first broadcast interview since leaving the White House, Joe Biden condemned President Trump’s handling of the war in Ukraine and his dealings with global allies, and defended the timing of his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential campaign.

Incredible reporting by the Washington Post on the Trump administration's hurried, lawless effort to carry out illegal renditions to El Salvador - to terrorize people. (Including how they violated court directives.)

Take a moment to read the entire thing: www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

The administration rounded up some of the Venezuelans two days before the flights took off, pressing forward even as Venezuela agreed to accept deportees.

Fellow attorneys, don’t use Fidelity National Financial for title insurance for real estate closings if you can help it.
1. Clay Jackson, a Texas lawyer, provided basic legal advice to an immigrant family fearing deportation

Then, two officers visited him at his home, accusing him of "obstructing an ongoing immigration investigation"

Then, after speaking publicly, he was fired from his job at a Fortune 500 company

But he promised some jets to Michigan in 2028 so you should probably appease him like “Big Gretch” did.
J/K - keep up the good work, Senator!!
We've learned the Trump Administration has ILLEGALLY withheld over $430B in funds approved by Congress — gutting vital services including child care, disaster relief and more.

The courts must continue to hold this lawless president accountable, even if spineless congressional Republicans won't.

I would be so angry. Especially if it was the time I had to fly out to California from Virginia ahead of moving there. Such an obvious and expensive mistake. Happy to take any of these cases suing the bar on contingency.
Whoever at the CA bar was responsible for this should be fired immediately.

Francis was the best Pope of my lifetime. He occupied the top of a powerful hierarchy while still challenging it. He provided a moral reminder of the values of decency, humility and empathy towards the vulnerable in a role, and at a time, where it easy to lose sight of those values.
