Absolutely horrified by the brutal killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. There is no justification, no excuse for a government to unleash this kind of violence on its own citizens. Those responsible must be held to account. This is not a partisan question, but a matter of decency and equal justice.
Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

“Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires the government to provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people. If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for no reason.”
Crockett: That’s why they hired everybody from Fox because all they’re trying to do is put on a show.. I want us to refocus our attention on the American people and stop demonizing every person that ends up in ICE custody…

In a fiery moment on the House floor, Rep. Tom Suozzi just tore into the GOP’s reconciliation package—exposing contradiction after contradiction. If you watch one clip today, make it this. 🎯🔥
Newsom: This is serious. And what happened yesterday was not very serious—and that was this so-called deal with the UK that actually hurts American automobile manufacturers.

MAGA thinks Dems upset about the Trump admin suspending the writ of habeas corpus (which is essentially declaring martial law) is a self-own since Lincoln did it during the Civil War. Yes, it was designed for things like a Civil War. Not for judicial decisions you disagree with.
Menendez Jr: They feel no weight of the law and no restraint on what they should be doing. And that was shown in broad daylight today when they not just arrested the Mayor of Newark but when they put their hands on two members of congress standing behind me. How is this acceptable?
Deadly serious. Please watch. Newark is on edge, ICE has arrested it’s mayor and I was just at Delaney Hall, the facility DHS is building to stash migrants.
Nurses are the backbone of our healthcare system. This #NationalNursesWeek, I stand with them in fighting for safe nurse staffing ratios, ensuring quality care for all patients and safer working conditions for our nurses.
Newsom: I’ll give you a specific example: just this morning, in anticipation of meeting with Chinese counterparts in Geneva, he decided to negotiate against himself—the great negotiator—from 145% tariffs imposed on China, now he says, “Well, maybe it should be 80%.”
This is INSANE!
Local news on the fascist, authoritarian, illegal, unconstitutional, warrantless ICE kidnappings..
“Masked federal agents not showing ANY identification (or warrants) and an escalation of tensions when the Worcester police arrived”
@cbsnews.com
Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.
Art of the deal is raising the tariff to 145% then cutting it almost in half despite the fact that China has made no concessions and has completely ignored you. Xi just sits back at laughs at our orange clown.
Could you imagine if the head of the United States healthcare system didn’t believe that HIV caused AIDS?

Oh wait…🥴
AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?
There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.
The definition of failing upward, like everyone else in the admin.
Also, there isn’t a single non-cultist who buys this BS. The lameness of it demonstrates how dumb they think their own base is.
