"People get activated by hate. It's a very, very, very strong force."

One of the most powerful things I heard this year.

Obvious, I know. But Ta-Nehisi Coates put so much into context with this simple truth: hate is why the right has thrived by feeding on the loathing of Trump & the Charlie Kirks.

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

Bringing this to Bsky bc @steverattner.bsky.social hasn't posted it yet and it's so critical. The entirety of the cuts to Medicaid and food benefits are to pay for tax cuts for people earning more than half a million a year.

My posters this week will be the 50501 theme of “No Kings” and the 2nd will be “bring home Kilmar!” We all HAVE to fight this strenuously. Don’t let this get buried. This will only get worse if we don’t.

Van Hollen says that he asked the VP of El Salvador why his government continues to hold Abrego Garcia even though he’s not charged with any crime and there’s no evidence that he’s MS-13.

“His answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT”

Seems like it's everyone's patriotic duty to report men getting hair plugs and erectile dysfunction meds, as those are both gender-affirming care

At least 75% of the men Trump illegally deported to El Salvador have no criminal records. These men have been abducted and sent to a hell-hole Salvadoran “prison” that is the the equivalent of a torture-laden concentration camp. DEMAND freedom and justice for these men.

I wonder if any of you can spot the different in appearance between the people involved. Oh, I bet you can!
To Recap:

You can commit a crime by negligently divulging military secrets, in violation of the Espionage Act, and you will *not* be arrested.

But if you have an autism awareness tattoo to support your autistic brother, you *will* be kidnapped and sent to a concentration camp in another country.

This is what tyrants like Erdogan do- they kidnap people off the street and disappear them. We are now an authoritarian state like Turkey.
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.
