Minutes ago today the Trump regime abruptly cancelled citizenship ceremonies for several immigrants in Boston.

THEY CANCELLED CITIZENSHIP CEREMONIES.

These immigrants followed every rule & did everything right—Trump banned them anyway. All are from Black & brown majority nations.

This Is Fascism.

There is no evidence that CBS News has a 'liberal bent.'

Just because Trump & MAGA & Weiss say this doesn't mean it's true & it certainly doesn't mean actual news organizations like the @AP should repeat it without facts and context. apnews.com/article/erik...

In their infinite wisdom, the Trump admin including RFK jr’s HHS has RESCINDED Biden’s rule for nursing home staffing minimums. Now nursing homes will be even more under staffed than they are now.

HHS is spinning it as a “clean-up”.

Here's a better headline for Axios: "How Trump has normalized racism and racist slurs." Why can't some journalists just call a thing what it is? https://loom.ly/hiKWr58

Yeah, a House member needs to send up that impeachment flag. This is illegal, immoral, dangerous behavior — that is also likely unconstitutional as well.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

This reporter asks a legitimate, followup question—something the White House press corps doesn’t do all that often.

Trump isn’t used to this, and you can see how it gets under his skin.

Reporters need to do this more often, or at least come to the defense of those who are willing to do it.

2. Trump pardoned dozens of individuals today who tried to overturn the 2020 election. A healthy democracy calls attempts to overturn the democratic process what they are: Treason. This should raise concerns even higher about this administration's commitment to democratic processes in 2028 / 2029.
