Not enough people are talking about this.

Between this and Sotomayor's recent dig at Kavanaugh, I'm getting the sense that Callais (the Voting Rights Act case) will be an absolute disaster and the liberals have given up trying to mitigate the damage.

Heads up Central Florida! The April 15 tax deadline is coming up fast. Avoid delays and file as soon as you can.

Canadian mother held by ICE with daughter, 7, speaks out on families ‘suffering greatly’ in detention Tania Warner and her daughter were detained in Texas facilities deemed ‘unsafe and degrading’

Cruelty and psychological trauma are the hallmarks of Trump's ICE. Warner and her daughter are from British Columbia, but moved to Kingsville, Texas, in 2021 when she married her American husband, Edward. On 14 March, the family was driving home from a baby shower in Raymondville, Texas, when they

Today, I received a notification of another death in ICE custody. That’s 47 deaths during Trump’s second term.

We must stand up and demand real accountability — ICE has a duty to provide care to those in their custody.

All honor to the Hungarian people for showing the way.

Trump was beatable, always has been, but the Democratic coalition has been unreliable and easily fractured - and tends to stay home. Hillary could have won if Democrats and Indies had just clenched their teeth and pulled that lever instead of Jill Stein and Gary what's his name

The key to democracy is showing up in large numbers

A series of posts from journalist Mark Chadbourn reporting on the acceptance speech of Péter Magyar after Hungarian elections: Péter Magyar: "Our country wants to live again. It wants to be a European country again." Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 24m Magyar's speech is powered. From a contact in the audience: "He's basically just asked all the puppets, all the supreme justices, all the heads of media, all the heads of the ministries to leave their jobs tomorrow and not wait to be fired." •.. Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 22m He's announced that Hungary will join the European Prosecution Office so anyone in the country can be charged. Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 21m Magyar: "No mercy, they will need to take responsibility for all their actions." ... Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 20m Magyar says he's starting work with the EU and NATO immediately. "The EU doesn't have to worry anymore."

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act For too long, this law has allowed the government to evade privacy protections and spy on Americans. Reform is overdue.

Congress is about to vote on renewing Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Originally meant to monitor foreigners overseas, it’s been abused to surveil Americans. This is a chance to finally protect Americans’ privacy. bit.ly/4tASUmW

One of the ways news media often fail us is by giving us the microscopic rather than the telescopic view. Everything I mention in this essay is well-documented, but the dots are mostly not connected to make visible this death by a thousand cuts our country is undergoing.

Hungarians showing how to win big in an unfair election: organize AND protest AND vote AND demand profound change.

Our job is to put maximal pressure on everyone who has the power to stop Trump’s illegal war with Iran: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...
