We have a cabinet level Secretary of State, a diplomatic corps, Special Envoys, and Defense team to do this work.

“Son-in-law” is not a government job. Kushner does not represent us.

As you watch the extraordinary spectacle of Trump's government attempting to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda, let's not lose sight of just how lawless and indefensible Trump's misconduct has been all throughout.

Here's a thread recapping all of it. 1/

Thanks to the GOP’s Big, Ugly law, over 300 rural hospitals will close across America.

Patients will be forced to drive hours for emergency care — or be left with no options at all.

They're jeopardizing the health and wellness of millions to pad the pockets of a wealthy few.

BREAKING: please, everyone, turn on local news.

there is NOTHING going on in LA. Its over, the protest broke up hours ago.

Local news helicopters are trolling for trouble and there's none. Just some LAPD/LASD road blocks.

If they 'send the Guard' now, its just because they really really want to.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.

That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

what replaces due process under fascism is the assurance of protection for favored groups. even though it’s precarious, a lot of people feel just as protected under that framework as they do under one with due process
If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

If you thought Columbia was the only NYC uni going out of their way to bend the knee to Trumpism:

NYU canceled a speech by Dr Joanne Liu, former head of Doctors Without Borders because her deck included a picture of aid workers killed in Gaza and one of Trump’s piss-out WH meeting with Zelenskyy

@schiff.senate.gov is holding the line: hard pass on the CR. No capitulation to MAGA Republicans.

Every Senate Dem must do the same.

@schumer.senate.gov hear this: if you or any other Dem votes yes, we won’t forgive & we won’t forget.

We will hold you accountable.

New: Marjorie Taylor Greene urged the DOJ and FBI on Weds. to investigate anti-Tesla protests.

In doing so, she may have violated House ethics rules--because she owns stock in Tesla.

JD Vance is embarrassingly unqualified to sit at the table for any kind of diplomacy
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup
