I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

CNN reports that DHS and DOD will recommend that Trump does NOT invoke the Insurrection Act. Reportedly one of their concerns is not the danger of using this authority for immigration enforcement; it's that the detention capacity isn't there if they did deploy the authority.

Trump has revoked a U.S. citizen’s Social Security benefits in the hopes they would leave the country. This comes after the administration filed 6,000 immigrants into the SSA’s “death master file,” stripping them of their legal ability to work and receive benefits.

(HERE is the bench slap I've been looking for) HITTING THE DOCKET: In Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals DENIES the Trump Administration's request for an emergency stay pending appeal & DENIES its request for a writ of mandamus. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

He was held even as a supporter waved his U.S. birth certificate in court.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

NEW: ACLU brings class habeas action in N.Y. challenging Trump’s use of wartime powers for deportations. The move is a response to Monday's SCOTUS ruling that requires habeas litigation to challenge Trump's Alien Enemies Act proclamation. Tonight, at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/aclu-bring...

CHICAGO…

There are no tariffs being put on Russia. Hmmm

From the former editor of the conservative Orange County Register newspaper "It's 'Liberation Day' ...the day we're liberated from our retirement savings. The day we're liberated from paying low prices for high-quality imported goods. Liberated from imported produce..."

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

JUST IN: Judge Boasberg sets a Thursday hearing on his efforts to determine whether the Justice Department violated his orders restraining removals under the Alien Enemies Act.

A three-judge panel Wednesday declined the DOJ's request to lift a court order preventing the Trump administration from using an 18th century wartime law to deport people to a Salvadoran hard labor prison without due process.

JUST IN: The 9th circuit court of appeals won’t clear the way for the mass firing of probationary employees at six key federal departments, leaving in place a lower court’s order reinstating thousands of terminated workers.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Crockett: "The idea that you want to shut down everybody that is not Fox News is bullshit. We need to stop playing."

This must go VIRAL! Start now!!!

To anyone living in a state that doesn't respect you for who you love or who you are: Illinois has a place for you. You are seen, you are celebrated, you are protected, and you are welcome here in our state.

NEW A group that focuses on electing Democratic women who support abortion rights announced Wednesday it would target 46 U.S. House seats held by Republicans in the midterm elections as it seeks to turn the chamber from red to blue www.newsfromthestates.com/article/emil...

"They could've held meetings..weeks in advance..developed a public strategy They could've pushed..for a..clean bill..Doesn't mean they would've gotten that but..that would've allowed democrats to at least..blame.. Republicans for..the final bill" @schumer.senate.gov why didn't you do ANY of this

@schumer.senate.gov - dealing with the Hegseth/Signal issue is another chance to show some leadership. Are you up for it? Demand an investigation & this time, don’t cave.

NEW: The ACLU has filed a sworn declaration from a Venezuelan woman who ICE sought to turn over to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act, who declares that "I heard two US government officials talking and they said 'there is an order saying we can’t take off but we already have.'"

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

Sign this and pay for the coin to have Resistbot mail it first class usps. It supports the post office at the same time as telling the fascists in power that you demand accountability! In light of currents events, it's the least you could do today.

Seriously, military opsec is no joke--examples abound of what happens to ppl who compromise mission safety with stupid leaks. As a nat guardsman Pete would already be in handcuffs over this, but these guys are casually talking about mission details like it's fantasy football.
