Remember that this is where his discussions with El Salvador began. The migrant detentions there are the dry run. He wants to ship U.S. prisoners to El Salvador.We cannot sleepwalk through this.

A lot of "post-left" personalities like Brand claim they were pushed away from the left but were in fact drawn to the right as a means of escaping accountability for their own actions
Russell Brand has spent the past few years aligning himself with the American right as allegations of sexual violence were made public against him. He knew he would find defenders and protection among their ranks. That should tell you everything you need to know about what the party represents

Where did "weird" go? Biden's pollsters said it was too mean.

Within weeks, Walz—a guy who won over the public as someone who would call out the lunacy before our eyes—went from nailing Trump and Vance's oddness to normalizing Vance in their only debate.

Trump laid out exactly what he would do if reelected, and a lot of y’all called us alarmists when we believed him.

The tariffs have one goal: To crash the economy so the rich can buy up yet another layer of stocks, properties, and businesses at collapsed prices, consolidating their wealth and finishing off the middle class.

Tufts University petitions a federal judge to release student Rümeysa Öztürk, who was grabbed off the street by immigration officials.

The move is some of the strongest public pushback by a school against the Trump administration's arrests of foreign students.

Trump is currently destroying:

- The federal government
- The US constitution
- The global economic system
- The diplomatic and security alliances that serve as the foundation of the global order
- The US system of public health
- The US system of research and development

Walz: It's like trump is stuck in the 80s. His music, his clothing, his thinking. I think the biggest myth perpetuated on this country that Donald Trump understands anything about business. He's bankrupted every single one he's been into, and now he's bankrupting this country

The extent to which the business community has not listened over the last year to precisely what Donald Trump has said is astounding. Like this is the most consistent and foreseeable promise he made:

"This is what Republicans do. They screw up the economy…Democrats get elected and have to fix everything. Then the media characterizes the economic first responders as the tax-and-spend liberal wastrels—lather, rinse, repeat. This has been happening since 1990, and it’s happened 3 straight times"
Of Course Trump Will Tank the Economy. It’s What Republicans Do.
As the president’s “Liberation Day” nears, it’s time to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of Democrats having to clean up the GOP’s messes.

It was great stuff today. Kudos to Booker. But it needs to be the <start> of continuous action, every day, to keep this going & build on it. Prove those of us who were skeptical about the performative nature of it wrong. Use every possible platform & power as Senators to defeat the fascism. More.
Booker, just minutes away from the speaking record: "This is when the most precious ideas of our country are being tested, where the Constitution and the question is being called -- Where does the constitution live? On paper? Or in our hearts? This is the moment."

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.

A lot of Democrats warned about these exact things because they were in Project 2025. A lot of the press dismissed them and then reported Trump had “nothing to do with Project 2025” and “disavowed” it. (Instead of just flatly saying he was lying because of course he was!)
If you had shown me this picture in a Democratic campaign ad last fall, I would have rolled my eyes at the ridiculous overkill
