“If today the Executive claims the right to deport without due process and in disregard of court orders,” asked Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III, a Reagan-appointee, “what assurance will there be tomorrow that it will not deport American citizens and then disclaim responsibility to bring them home?”
“A conservative federal judge just issued a dire warning: The government must bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to the United States after he was illegally deported to a brutal Salvadoran prison, or else the country will descend into lawlessness.”

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Precisely. And we shouldn’t be confirming AGs who have no demonstrated commitment to the work for which the Dept was created. Bondi is a catastrophe. But we’ve been burying the lede with AGs since John Mitchell.
The Department of Justice was created in 1870 with an explicit mission to protect civil rights and enforce the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments.
The DOJ went after the Klan hard, securing thousands of indictments and 600+ convictions within the first year alone.
How about restoring *that* focus?

Hubris and privilege are keeping us down. But communities are organizing and more people than ever are involved and paying attention. Our country is so big and we’re too sprawled out. It’s going to be long and painful and seriously damaging.
But the only way out is through.

The opposite of DEI is NOT "color-blind, hire-the-best-qualified." It's "continue to hire the incompetent white male just because he's a white male." And the entire Trump administration proves that point.

three weeks ago i had no idea ilan wurman existed and now i sincerely hope i am in the same room with him someday so i can tell him, to his face, that he is a charlatan and a disgrace.
I want to highlight just how closely the Wurman-Barnett arguments in 2025 parallel those made by the United States against Wong Kim Ark’s citizenship in 1898. And rejected. I do not think this can be coincidence.
Here’s a summary of the US’s arguments, via @jnovkov.bsky.social
