An ICE agent arrested for drunk driving with his kids in the car tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers (“Are you Haitian?”)

These are the agents Stephen Miller & Kristi Noem are hiring to carry out their cruel immigration policies

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

I went to El Salvador hoping to meet with Kilmar and check on his well-being, and I had the chance to do that last night.

Our courts have been clear: this was an ILLEGAL abduction. I’m speaking now about my meeting with Kilmar and our work to bring him home:

It is time for Trump to put up or shut up in Court.

A FEDERAL JUDGE said “no evidence before the court connects Abrego Garcia to MS-13 or any criminal organization.” No one is vouching for one man. We are standing up for EVERYONE’s right to due process under the Constitution.

The problem is: they've mistaken correlation for causation. They think their parents and grandparents had a good life *because* of manufacturing jobs. When, in reality, their parents and grandparents had a good life *despite* manufacturing jobs, because of unions, high taxes, and social policies.

Incredible. The Trump administration calculated "tariff rates" by taking the US trade deficit with the respective country and dividing it by the country's exports to the US. And then the tariff rate of the US is often just set by cutting that made-up "tariff rate" in half.

Global wealth inequality, represented by stick figures and space

I love using stick figures in my #dataviz. there's just something a lot more humanizing about encoding people as stick figures rather than a few pixels of width on a bar

It's a great option when precision isn't the main goal

Jayson Tatum said he’s thrilled to see Marcus Smart tomorrow.

“The ultimate Celtic,” Tatum said. “He’ll always be a Celtics for life.”

Tatum said he’ll probably “tackle the shit out of” Smart though.

You cannot cut 2 trillion dollars from federal spending without doing terrible damage to Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security. You cannot raise tariffs without raising prices. The Republican plan is to take money from regular people and give it to the most profitable corporations on the planet.

Women are dying.
Women in America are DYING.

Pregnant women in America are dying after being denied critical abortion care to save their lives.

Further, barbaric Republican policies restricting or banning abortion are disproportionately taking the lives of women of color.

Black women are…
