I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful.

Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood.

We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?

Every good person in America has all the evidence they could ever need that Donald Trump poses a clear and present danger to our democracy and must be legally and peacefully removed from power using the processes we already have for doing so.

At this point, those who object are simply bad people.

They're exactly the Nazis you think they are.

Trump, Musk, Miller, Vought—the whole lot.

Their game is to gaslight you into feeling shame and doubt over your accurate, wholly evidence-based assessment that they're Nazis.

Trust yourself. You have it right.

Great thread about how the way higher ed and the government collaborate in the US saves taxpayers money. Let’s not tank the whole system.

It’s a good short thread on tonight’s news
This was one of the potential outcomes discussed at length in my pinned report.

The Court is demanding signs of effort but not a specific result, which is a huge win for the Trump administration, as it appears to confirm its theory that El Salvador has control over anyone on its soil.

This is bad.

I do not think it is a coincidence that Trump and Karoline Leavitt are both floating the “US Citizens sent to El Salvador” a few days after massive, distributed anti-Trump protests.

It is a threat, and we need to be louder and angrier than ever before on behalf of everyone who has been sent.
