starting to think perhaps fifa and its peace prize board were too hasty
I will be putting in notice Friday morning with DHS to return to Dilley to check on Liam again and the many other children and families there. Liam did not look well. My staff and I are very concerned about him.
Liam misses his mother and his schoolmates. All of the children at the Dilley detention center long for the lives that were ripped away from them. No child should be in a place like this.
Congresswoman @ayannapressley.bsky.social has been trying to get qualified immunity eliminated her ENTIRE career.
What the fuck is it going to take to get people to listen to her?
This is Renee Good.
She was a mother of a six-year-old child.
She was an American citizen.
She described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom and shitty guitar strummer from Colorado.”
And she was gunned down in cold blood and broad daylight by Trump’s ICE agents.
MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported?
NOEM: We haven't deported veterans
MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea
The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "I got elected in 2018 by flipping a Trump district. It was a district no one thought was winnable... I won with 51% of the vote. I want to take that playbook of running aggressively, of using unorthodox campaign tactics to be able to finally break through in Texas."
Just for those who may be a little confused: This is how an American president should treat Putin.
Talarico owns Will Cain so hard that he has to tap out of their interview based on "time"
LEFT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has a tattoo in honor of a family member.
RIGHT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has facilitated and/or engaged in the sexual assault of over a thousand children.

Donald Trump employed Virginia Giuffre, as a minor, in his "spa" at Mar-a-Lago.

Dwell on these things.
Rising cost of living and lack of affordable housing is causing a huge uptick in animal abandonment and shelter overcrowding.

Worth putting it on the record here, though you probably already know it: “Alligator Alcatraz” is a concentration camp.

"How is that different than what a monarchist does? He says certain things, he finds certain things, he does certain things. That’s not where we live. We live in response to a monarchy … the constitution is a document of limitations."
SecState Rubio claims that no on has died because of USAID cuts and suggested that I had lied in my reporting. So here I show him photos of specific children who have died because of the Trump administration's reckless cancelation of aid: www.nytimes.com/2025/05/31/o...
Increasingly, it’s harder to resist the comparison to Nazis.
Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.
Congress literally created an Alien Terrorist Removal Court for the expeditious removal of aliens who are designated as terrorists, under a preponderance of evidence standard.
I think problem isn’t the time it would take, but the fact that the government would have to produce actual evidence
The stock market lost $1.4 trillion in value today.
