it's not just Trump and Miller, it's also the Republicans in Congress, SCOTUS, the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation. The fascists have been laying the foundation for this coup for decades.

Masked men jumped a San Bernardino family in unmarked cars, opened fire, and shattered their truck windows—all while the family was just coming home from work.

The feds later admitted it was CBP, but the family says the agents never showed warrants or IDs.

2 points here:

1) There's no statute of limitations in New York for Ghislaine Maxwell's crimes (maybe also options in New Mexico and Florida). A pardon can't stop state prosecutions.

2) We just got another reason to release the Epstein files: so the public can test Maxwell's truthfulness.

This is disgusting. ICE “agents” are a bunch of hired thugs who don’t care who they hurt. Our government has dehumanized anyone with brown skin.

This is pure evil. The brainchild of Steven Miller, perhaps? What the hell has happened to Marco Rubio that he is okay with this?

I fought damn hard to create the 988 Hotline because help should not be hard to get – regardless of who you are or where you live.

This is wrong and cruel – and you can be sure I will fight this. www.axios.com/2025/04/23/l...

RFK Jr creating a list of people with autism reminds me of the dark history of Rosemary Kennedy being lobotomized at age 23. For behavioral issues. RFK Jr learned nothing from his family’s dark history. People with disabilities have the same rights as everyone

So, that new give Putin all he wants "peace" plan Rubio floated this week? It appears to be illegal under a 2022 American law Rubio himself helped pass.

The Trump Administration deliberately doxxed the wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia by posting her home address publicly on X. Now she and their 3 children have been forced into hiding for their safety.

This is not politics.

This is targeted cruelty.

So, “wasteful bureaucracy,” is anything that helps children, the poor, the marginalized, the disabled and women. But, we are all supposed to follow Christianity now. It’s almost like they haven’t read the Bible themselves.
The Trump administration is quietly putting America’s children at risk by cutting funds and manpower for investigating child abuse, enforcing child support payments, providing child care, providing children with nutrition support and school lunches and much more. It appears to be a targeted effort.
