Trump is targeting law firms that defend federal employees, expanding his campaign of retaliation against lawyers he opposes. A new memorandum threatens to use government power to punish any firm that, in his view, unfairly challenges his administration.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

DOJ is bothering to show up for court strictly to maintain appearances. Congressional oversight is nonexistent, not that it would matter. Our system of government is being systematically replaced. Jackboots are coming and their immunity will be absolute.

Trump has declared his first war, in behalf of Israel and Saudi Arabia, against the Houthi narco-terrorists in Yemen. In 2017, Trump's first war crime was also committed in Yemen where he had an entire family, primarily women and children including a US child, executed by US special forces.

Trump has already had death squads before, they had a practice run in Afghanistan during his first presidency. The majority of the US didn't care, now he's calling US citizens terrorists. It only takes a few signatures and complete media silence to know what comes next. #3E #EndImpunity

We need a new free speech movement.

And universities should sue the Trump regime for abridging the First Amendment rights of their institutions and their students.

Large portions of the United States were damaged from unusually strong storms formed across several states.

Trump and Musk weakened the agencies tasked with monitoring and responding to natural disasters and extreme weather. Now hundreds of thousands are paying for it.

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.

No one knows why he was detained.
