RFK, Jr. refusal to discontinue his financial interests in health litigation — while serving as HHS secretary — is cause for grave concern and betrays his duty to back sound, evidence-based policy on public health matters.

A man who screamed “Kill ’em!” at police during the January 6 riot now works for the Department of Justice. And the DOJ says they “appreciate his contributions.”

If you’re not chilled by that, you’re not paying attention.

WOW. The Trump admin is rewriting reality, erasing accountability for any nation with close ties to Trump — including Russia, El Salvador, and Israel.

The El Salvador report changes are egregious, totally erasing well-documented abuses. And the impact will be severe. Quick 🧵.

Immigrants aren’t foreign enemies. They are domestic friends
Nothing to see here, just the president of the United States at one of the country’s largest military bases—ostensibly to celebrate the Army's 250th anniversary—talking about his nationwide immigrant crackdown and how “we will not allow an American city be invaded and conquered by a foreign enemy.”

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Complete lawlessness. What court will have the courage to stop this madness?
Maybe they really were ICE officers. Or maybe they were a band of vigilantes, arbitrarily snatching brown-looking people off the street.
All eyes are now on LA, but secret police are descending upon smaller towns nationwide too. Masked and armed, they refuse to show IDs or warrants.

The ink on our report on the 50+ legal immigrants sent to the Salvadoran prison has barely dried, and already another case has come to light: Leonardo José Colmenares Solórzano, arrested at a CBP One appointment, crossing legally at a port of entry. No violations of any laws. Free them now!

In the alleged Land of the Free, your failure to have a social media account, or your decision to keep that account private, can and will be used against you.

No Facebook, Insta, or X account? You're probably hiding something, according to the Trump admin, so maybe no visa for you.

ICE attacks a US citizen, disregards his REAL ID, roughs him up, humiliates him, lies about him, and arrests him. If you like this kind of thing, you're going to get a 500% increase when Congress passes the Papers Please Police State Act that just passed the House.

Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow.

Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand .

Not a single person out of 18 of the very most senior officials in this Admin — including the Director of National Intelligence and the CIA Director — voiced any concern with highly classified military plans circulated on Signal.

You also can be sure this is not the only time.
