Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

A win! Thanks to everyone who spoke out. Following public backlash, Mike Lee backtracked on the National Parks proposal, which would have rescinded legislation protecting national parks and maintaining their boundaries as federal lands.

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

I know many of you who follow me don't work in climate science, but this is the biggest story in climate right now. Breaking up NCAR makes us all less safe and is another act of self-harm that will take decades to recover from.

Please read every word of this article, and please pass it on. We need to understand the day to day reality of what’s happening, and know how to help. It is no exaggeration to say that the United States is under occupation, and we are in the beginning stages of another Underground Railroad.

Trump’s move to “terminate” the Gateway Project is classic “mob boss” politics – using federal funds to punish his political enemies, and hurt you in the process. Watch my full conversation with @kim.senate.gov and @katiephang.bsky.social about what this means for commuters, jobs, and safety.

Canceling Stephen Colbert and now Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert - and Matthew Dowd is horrendous- and pure fascism. Shame on those networks for caving We have a right to freedom of speech and we want it back. This is textbook fascism.

The Trump administration has put forward a plan to roll back rules that require corporations to disclose the amount of greenhouse gases they release. If approved, the change would prevent both the government and the public from knowing the scale of emissions contributing to climate change.

I’ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the life’s work of so many American scientists. He shouldn’t be in this job.

Sad how much of a police-state Trump is turning our country into. Chicago canceled Mexican festivities out of fear of immigration raids. Ahh, the American dream having military occupation in several cities, enforced curfews, and threats of more to come.

Pritzker gets it.

Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.

This regime never stops. Court records filed Saturday reveal that immigration officials intend to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda, after he rejected a deal that would have sent him to Costa Rica in exchange for staying in custody and pleading guilty to human smuggling charges.

NEW: The government has offered Mr. Abrego deportation to Costa Rica if he pleads guilty, and threatened deportation Uganda if he does not. According to his lawyers in a new filing, that violates his 5th Amendment due process rights. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-govern...

A couple of interesting things about the Ghislaine Maxwell/Todd Blanche audio recording: it's not one continuous recording. It's broken up into 7 parts on day one, and 4 parts on day two. Further, Todd Blanche says he spoke to Maxwell off the record for several minutes before the recording. 1/

It’s disturbing that fear of ICE agents and anti-immigrant rhetoric have led to the difficult decision to cancel Indy's beloved Fiesta festival. Hoosiers deserve to celebrate their cultures without fear of racial profiling and abusive ICE practices which hurt us all.

Do you know how insane and infuriating it is to live in a country where one party claims, with media and public support, the mantle of being the ‘tough on crime’ party while its leader openly calls for convicted criminals to be released from prison ‘or else’?

The media is failing voters in Texas. They didn’t just make new maps that ‘favor Republicans’, they made new maps without the voice of the voters that further disenfranchise large communities of Black Texans. These are racist maps through and through.

Doug Burgum is just lying on national TV. D.C. doesn't even make the cut for the top most dangerous cities in the U.S., let alone the world. The most dangerous thing about D.C. is that its police are now under control of a power-hungry president.

Missouri Democratic lawmakers are in such a superminority that they don’t even need to show up for laws to be passed in this state. An even sadder statement? A piece of legislation can go from the House to the Senate to becoming a law on the Governor’s desk while never being signed by a woman.
