It’s not just that it’s clearly intentional, it’s that it’s clearly intentional knowing that he’s being recorded. They know they can do whatever they want with complete impunity.

Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 63 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Wyoming's Ruby Calvert, chair of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, challenged President Trump's characterization of federally funded public media as "trash," "madness," "biased," "radical" and "woke propaganda disguised as news." She also called for changes.

Senator Van Hollen is right - per the Constitution, we are all legally entitled to due process. Denying due process is a violation of the U.S. Constitution, and an attack on the rule of law. Trump can't just deport all the brown people, or the ones he disagrees with.

🚨I'm speaking on the Senate floor ahead of our vote to hold the Trump Administration and the government of El Salvador accountable for their conspiracy to violate the due process rights of people living in the U.S. — including Mr. Abrego Garcia. Tune in:

School vouchers aren’t about “freedom.” They’re a workaround to dodge diversity! They allow this this to happen… • Reject LGBTQ+ students • Exclude kids with disabilities • Teach whitewashed curriculum And draining public schools to do it. #DontDefundPublicSchools

The GOP says they’re going after “fraud and abuse” in Medicaid, but what they’re really doing is cutting hundreds of billions of dollars from a program that delivers care to the poorest Americans.

Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development. Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system. Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

That's the thing a lot of people still don't get; equity is for *everyone*.

Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social

Just amazing: Trump grew angry over a Biden-era program with the word "equity" in its name, so he ended it. But a key part of the program was sending money to red states to expand internet access in rural/MAGA country. Now they might not get it. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1950...

This is what fascism looks like … America under Trump… terrifying.

🚨 Disturbing footage shows the brutal arrest of a terrified 16-year-old girl—sobbing, screaming as “ICE agents” abducted her mom without a warrant or ID. At least 4 grown men slammed her face into the pavement. This is child abuse. This is state terror. Worcester police are complicit.

I will bet dollars to doughnut holes he scared shitless of being arrested, tried, convicted, sent to jail, and forced to live in the general population. I give him a week before he’s shanked.
