How could any Hispanic American ever feel safe when there’s videos like this circulating? It’s immensely clear that if you appear in public, you might be snatched and zip-tied in a Kavanaugh abduction, no matter what your immigration status is, or even if you’re a citizen.

Pelosi: "Democrats who created Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the ACA, all of that, are now being asked to reject that so we can give a tax cut to the rich. We're not doing it. It isn't a question of, 'let's come back together so we can discuss it.' That isn't going to happen."

This might be the worst ICE video yet, because it’s literally random dudes hanging around, and then a bunch of heavily armed thugs running them down completely out of nowhere, because they’re brown. It’s a nightmare that would have seemed excessive in Jim Crow. Everyone in America should see this.
ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.

May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

They’re not just pretending to be dumb
Johnson, R-La., told reporters there should have been 217 GOP votes for the bill. Garbarino “fell asleep in the back” after the all-night session and missed the vote. Schweikert slipped his electronic voting card into place after the vote had ended.

Trump is liable to pardon Chauvin on this anniversary!
May 25 marks five years since George Floyd, an unarmed Black man, was killed by a White police officer in Minneapolis. The officer, Derek Chauvin, was found guilty on charges of murder and manslaughter and sentenced to more than 20 years in prison. 🧵⬇️

If the GOP Tax Scheme is so beautiful, then why are they voting on it in the wee hours of the morning? Maybe because it’s irredeemably ugly and cruel.

whining out loud during a televised interview that the reporter should let you lie bc they owe you for the interview is pretty wild
This exchange is so very telling.

Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this:

"I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

I understand that everyone has their own objections to Bill Belichick's beautiful and normal relationship. Mine is that his previous type was age-appropriate North Jersey divorcees. He should be going to dinner at 615 with someone named Donna, not entangled in a conservatorship scam by a Jordon.
