Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.

This is a coup! U.S. Institute for Peace called the DC police on the Musk team members in an effort to stop them from trespassing because the institute has control of its own building and the land it sits on. But instead, the DC police allowed them to enter and kicked out the institute’s officials.

ICE's arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil is an extreme attack on free speech rights. We will see the Trump administration in court.

The cover-up…

USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”

As Dylan Mulvaney says, trans people are just like everyone else.

We are your friends, your family, your colleagues, and your neighbors. No executive order, piece of legislation or elected official will make us go away. We aren’t going anywhere.

You're witnessing the war dance of the Osage Nation here on their reservation in Oklahoma. Who are they going to war against? Their new enemy is called the Tribe of DOGE.

🚨 60 years after Bloody Sunday, the fight for voting rights isn’t over.

Lynda Blackmon Lowery survived brutal beatings on the Edmund Pettus Bridge at just 14 years old. She marched for the right to vote—something under attack again today.

The Social Security Administration is ending a decades-long practice of allowing parents to register their newborn for a Social Security number at the hospital and instead is requiring them to do so by visiting one of the state’s eight Social Security offices.
Social Security now requires Maine parents to visit an agency office to register newborns
The change — immediately criticized by pediatric health advocates — eliminates a program that allowed parents to fill out a form at the hospital to secure a Social Security number for their children.

Good trouble. Ask for that from your Member of Congress.
The idea that a political party must do more dramatic things in response to defeat is not new to the social media age. New bio of John Lewis describes his approach to Newt Gingrich et al taking the House in 1994.

Lewis applied Civil Rights era lessons and a willingness to burst norms to hurt Newt.

♿Social Security is NOT just for Seniors. It's also for people like me with Disabilities, people who receive Survivors Benefits & Veterans who receive Social Security benefits.

Before I became disabled, I PAID into the program with EVERY paycheck. There are MILLIONS more like me & it is OUR MONEY!♿
