OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/

I filmed this yesterday on my way to Lousiana where my constituent Rümeysa Öztürk is being wrongfully held by ICE. I’m there now demanding her release. More to come.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

BREAKING: In a blockbuster revelation, Senator Van Hollen reveals the Trump Administration has promised to pay El Salvador $15 million, over double previous estimates, “to detain these prisoners, including the illegally abducted Kilmore.” This is illegal to do without Congress.

WOW. One of the Venezuelans whom Kristi Noem tried to render to El Salvador's slave prison managed to avoid removal and was able to make it to immigration court, and you'll never guess what happened: THE GOVERNMENT GAVE NO EVIDENCE OF HIS GANG MEMBERSHIP. Due process ftw

Thursday tips for U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Employees: 1) as hard as it is, show up today and tomorrow to honor those leaving due to Fork 2.0. Be present. 2) focus on one conservation and/or regular work activity that brings you joy. 3) give yourself and others space not to be at their best.

Don't get me wrong, I 100% believed in this campaign, but I have been BLOWN away by the amount of support we've gotten. This "quarter" of fundraising was actually just 8 days. People are ready for a change in how we do politics and I couldn't be more grateful for our grassroots support. 🥲

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

At a GOP town hall last night, heckling from constituents was apparently too much to handle—so they used police force and even stun guns on their own constituents. What are they so afraid of? Someone disagreeing with their views?

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family. I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.

BREAKING NEWS: In a shocking moment, Karoline Leavitt MOCKS the El Salvadoran immigrant mistakenly deported. “Based on the sensationalism of many of the people in this room, you would think we deported a candidate for Father of the year.” She’s despicable.

🚨JUST IN: China has just CANCELLED all jet orders from American manufacturer Boeing to in response to President Trump hitting the country with tariffs as high as 145% on Chinese goods. China will also no longer purchase any aircraft-related equipment from American companies.

Just to note that this Administration is clearly very concerned about antisemitism until an actual act of antisemitism occurs on Passover directed at an elected official on public property. The silence is deafening.

Please read this from Senator Murphy and then urge your elected officials to do everything in their power to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home.

Chris Murphy@chrismurphyct.bsky.social

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

🚨 April 19 is happening — and it’s more than just a protest. Yes, people will be in the streets again. Others will be organizing food drives, volunteering at shelters, hosting teach-ins, and finding other creative ways to show up for their communities and push back against this administration.

So a senior executive at SSA was escorted out on Thursday for voicing concerns about adding immigrants to the Master Death Record. We love to see someone standing on their principles and refusing to back down. Sharing the Reddit post about it because it has a link to the WaPo article as a gift.

Ms Rachel’s “Hamas propaganda” is posting that children have rights and deserve to be safe. Just for context about how evil this is

Matt Lieb@mattlieb.bsky.social

Gonna go out on a limb here and say sending Ms Rachel to Guantanamo will do the exact opposite of stopping antisemitism.

BREAKING NEWS: In a shocking statement, Karoline Leavitt confirms the Trump Administration is taking steps on a pathway to deport AMERICAN CITIZENS to El Salvador. This is absolutely insane.

YES! I’ve mentioned it in replies but I totally forgot to update! We DID in fact hit more than 10,000 donors before the 4/1 deadline! Y’all made this grassroots campaign not only possible but viable. Thank you!!!

“We had literally 5-7 times as many people show up as RSVPs in most of the places where we held marches. What we were hearing throughout the day was the biggest problem that organizers of these marches were having…was that too many people were showing up.” - @leahgreenberg.bsky.social on #handsoff
