WATCH: “If Biden answered any Q like this can you imagine how long @jaketapper’s book would be?”

Asked how long detainees will stay at “Alligator Alcatraz”, Trump spent 3 mins on how much time he plans to stay in Florida.

The media didn’t even cover it.

Senate Republicans just sold out the sick and the hungry to cut taxes for the rich and the powerful.

What would Jesus do about this “Big Beautiful Bill”?

I think he would flip over the tables of injustice and call on us to do the same.

My immediate thoughts on the most monstrous, immoral piece of legislation I’ve ever voted on in the Senate.

But I’m not done fighting. I know you aren’t either.

It’s important to pay attention to the fact that there are simultaneous efforts to criminalize mask-wearing by citizens and to standardize the wearing of face-obscuring gaiters by people purporting to be law enforcement.

Someone should go put them up there (or do a protest with them), along with the worst of the Jan6ers.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation.

I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

Andry Hernandez Romero, the Venezuelan makeup artist sent to a notorious Salvadoran prison, claimed asylum in the US because he was persecuted as a gay man.

Chris Van Hollen met in El Salvador with Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Andry lived in San Diego—why hasn’t Alex Padilla or Adam Schiff met with him? 🤨

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

Last night multiple people detained at the Bluebonnet ICE detention center in Texas were handed sheets of paper IN ENGLISH and told by ICE officers that they were required to sign the paper (even if they only spoke Spanish).

These were reportedly "Alien Enemies Act" notices.
On April 17 at 10:36 I spoke to the sister of Luis Yoender Mercado. She informed me that she spoke to him this afternoon. Luis is detained at Bluebonnet. He has a master Calendar hearing scheduled on April 23, 2025. He told his sister that several people had received notices and were told by officers that they were being sent to El Salvador. 6. I also received messages on a listserv from several contacts indicating that people at Bluebonnet were receiving notices that they would be removed. The message says, “We just heard that it looks like more removals are being planned. We got this message from a member: “Hi, ICE moved a large group of Venezuelans to Bluebonnet earlier this week and some of them have alerted counsel that they received a notice minutes ago saying they would be removed under the AEA. The notice was in English and had a box for people to indicate they want to contest the designation. People should check on their Venezuelan clients if they've been moved to Bluebonnet and tell them to mark "I contest" in the notice.” 9. Sometime between April 14-16, Y.S.M. was transferred to Bluebonnet Detention Facility, as was his father. On the night of April 16, I was made aware of his location and emailed a request for a video call. I received a follow-up to my request on April 17 in the afternoon. 10. During the night of April 17, I received notice through Y.S.M.’s father that Y.S.M. had been taken away by agents. Y.S.M. was taken to another room. The agents returned for Y.S.M.’s belongings. As he passed by, Y.S.M.’s father could see through a window that Y.S.M. was crying. As Y.S.M. and the agents were passing, Y.S.M. held up a paper to the window. Another detainee who spoke English was able to read that the paper said “deportation.” The country of removal was not visible. Because he has no final immigration order, the government could only be seeking to remove him under the AEA, not the immigration laws. I am an attorney at Brooklyn Defender Services in Brooklyn, New York. 2. On April 17, 2025, I spoke with my client, a Venezuelan national detained at the Bluebonnet Detention Facility in Anson, Texas, and with his partner several times on the phone. 3. My client and his partner told me that Venezuelan men detained at Bluebonnet were being given a piece of paper saying that they were about to be deported regardless of their immigration status because they are a danger to the United States and that these men were asked to sign the paper notice or a document provided with it. They also told me that ICE officials refused to say where the men would be deported. 4. My client and his partner also told me that individual men were being removed from the facility without warning upon receiving the paper notice.

How is it possible U.S. citizens are being held as illegal aliens in America even after they produce their birth certificate? This is intolerable. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...
