Trump: “If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

THREAD: Cherise Doyley was in her 12th hour of contractions at the hospital when a tablet was brought to her bedside. On the screen was a Zoom call with a judge and several lawyers and doctors. She was in court, a nurse told her. The reason? For failing to agree to a C-section.

I’m curious as to why I see so little coverage of ICE actions in Vermont. Gov. Phil Scott slams ICE agents’ tactics in Vermont action as ‘totally unnecessary’; their target remains at large - VTDigger #Politics #ICE […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment. Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off. The 25th is never happening.

The draft executive order floating around wants to force people to re-register to vote between now and the midterms. Clearly beyond Trump’s authority, and completely pointless unless your goal is to limit turnout

🚨BREAKING: Democracy Docket has obtained a draft of the executive order being circulated with the White House that would allow Trump to take unprecedented control over voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Here is what I wrote about the Supreme Court's tariff decision. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

For the 2026 primary elections, NPR has collected deadlines and information on how to register to vote — online, in person or by mail — in every U.S. state and territory. n.pr/4ayRPUJ

So the FAA closed El Paso Airport for 10 days for “security reasons,” and said deadly force may be used if an aircraft violates the airspace, then went you know what, never mind it’s okay a few hours later?

The FAA has abruptly lifted its unprecedented ten day closure of El Paso airspace. Previously, no advanced notice was given and no justifiable explanation had been provided. This rash decision will erode trust in public safety.

The President should immediately give Congress and the American people a rational explanation for such an extreme and unprecedented move.

We have received numerous credible reports of torture, killing, and inhumane treatment of detained individuals at the Camp East Montana migrant detention facility, located within Fort Bliss. #txlege

- FAA grounds all flights in and out of El Paso for 10 days - airspace also closed over nearby area of New Mexico - no reason given why beyond unspecified "special security reasons" - seems to have caught everybody by surprise

A notice posted on the FAA's website said the temporary flight restrictions were for “special security reasons,” but did not provide additional details. https://www.wfla.com/news/national/faa-closes-airspace-around-el-paso-texas-for-10-days-grounding-all-flights/ 

The numbers speak for themselves

Ossoff: We would be naive not to expect dirty tricks. This man tried to steal the presidency when he lost it the first time. The best insurance against dirty tricks is landslide margins of victory.

If you really want Trump to be held accountable then you MUST vote in the midterm election regardless of what you think about the candidates. Voting Democrat holds the ONLY possibility of ridding your country of the malignant cancer occupying the White House now.

If Dem senators vote to extend the DHS CR again, they are instantly going to lose a tremendous amount of support from their base who have been in wait-and-see mode on this. I can only assume Dem senators considering this have completely lost touch with their voters. Don’t do it.

"all these people that are still somehow involved in our public life, and yet there’s no price, and I can’t get my head around that"

Corporate media is leaving out a big part of the FBI raid on Fulton County election offices. I discuss with @asharangappa.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/muellers...

The media is only part of the problem.

1/2 🧵One thing I have seen happening more and more is accounts that are quite likely bots, or people with bad intentions, posting comments, trying to excite people into and clicking on, liking, commenting, or sharing a comment that suggests violence. DO. NOT. FALL. FOR. IT.

I want to hear at least ONE Democratic leader talk like their ass is on fire about ICE’s electronic surveillance of people committing no crimes...and the “nice little database” they’re bragging about building on Americans. That’s the emergency. Anyone??

Our senators must hold the line on DHS funding. We cannot settle for empty reforms while ICE and CBP terrorize our communities, violate our constitutional rights, and kill innocent people. Demand that your Democratic senators use their leverage to secure real restrictions on Trump’s secret police.

BREAKING: A federal judge has just ordered the release of 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his father from the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas!

It does feel that way. Reports are they’re going to Ohio for immigration enforcement next, and I think it’s likely we’ll see strikes on Iran in the next week or so. Probably sooner. It’s going to be a bunch of fucking chaos, mostly.

“It is one of the scariest moments of my life and in my career to know that a fellow journalist, an award winning journalist, a vetted journalist, whose credentials are impeccable, is right now sitting in federal custody for doing her duty.”

RIP to the QUEEN, Catherine O’Hara. 💔

Rest in peace to a legend. Catherine O'Hara, 1954-2026

4 Black journalists have been kidnapped by the federal government

Now THIS is how you do anti-ICE messaging: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNRC...

To my colleagues in the Senate: Hold the line.

ANDREW SCHULZ (who helped Trump win): “ICE murdered a citizen and they called him a domestic terrorist— I see them trying to spin it, it’s fucking disgusting… only 5% of who they deport are violent criminals. Shut the f*ck up about deporting pedophiles when you won’t even release the Epstein files.”

Please call your senators and tell them to demand rescission of the ICE/CBP funding under the BBB.

The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day. I founded Democracy Docket because you deserve better. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

I'll repeat my ask to Democratic Senators here: don't vote for the DHS funding bill, yes. AND ALSO do not vote for another single thing in the United States Senate until the invasion and occupation of Minnesota ends. Don't vote to name a post office, dedicate a road, or even a procedural motion

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

We need to get it broadly understood that Stephen Miller's ethnic cleansing will result in a permanent metastasized immigrant carceral state and paramilitary warfare on US streets that goes on *for years.* The internal logic of his agenda dictates this of necessity. newrepublic.com/article/2041...
