I've been seeing a lot of people responding to this with "there ought to be a law," but importantly, we haven't needed a law for this sort of thing because no prior president wanted to be known as a leader who would literally kill people in their hour of need for not voting for him
Seth MasketThis is honestly one of the most shocking images coming out of this administration and that’s saying something

Chicago teen shares his experience in ICE detention centers: I am 18 years old and I just graduated from high school in Chicago. I was in ICE detention for 2 months and 10 days. They kept me in solitary for 2 days for no reason, alone in a room with just a toilet. They never let us go outside.

I wonder how Bernie Moreno feels about being such a pathetic scumbag stooge that he won't demand the resignation of a GOP member of the House who held a gun to his daughter's head, scalded her with hot water, and broke his 2-year-old granddaughter's collarbone.
lmaooooo -- Bernie Moreno asks Fauci to apologize to Laura Ingraham (who is standing behind Fauci) and other right-wing grifters
hundreds of millions got the COVID vaccine and there were so few problems that the main form of criticism turned into "friend-of-a-friend" hearsay stories, so this guy can't actually cite an actual case but knows his base will think they know people who know people this may have happened to
Aaron RuparSen. Roger Marshall: "Who didn't have a friend who took this vaccine and had some time of complication? A stroke, a blood clot, a young man getting some type of heart inflammation. That's what destroyed the trust in the American people for our government."
Centrists in Congress (anonymously) threatening to leave this Democratic Party. James Carville calling for a schism. Top Dems refusing to endorse Dem primary winners. Pouty (also anonymous) pro-Israel donors in MI calling for a donor strike—I wrote about the emerging centrist Uncommitted Movement.
Israel is giving Trump's former campaign manager millions of dollars to fill the internet with pro-Israel articles written by AI, not so that anyone will actually read them, but so that *LLMs will train on them* & regurgitate their perspective. This is the future of the information environment.
NEW Economist/YouGov Jul 25-27 72% of Independents strongly or somewhat disapprove of Trump's job performance, and only 19% approve — a net approval of -53, his lowest ever At this point in Trump's first term, his net approval among Independents was -5 d3nkl3psvxxpe9.cloudfront.net/documents/ec...
"“You can’t get rid of 30 percent of your staff and expect to be functional,” says Traci DiMartini, the former IRS human capital officer who was one of the first high-ranking officials DOGE pushed out last year. “Things are starting to break.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
The Times corrects its splash story headlined "Migrant care workers bring dozens of family members." The Times got this totally wrong. It then used its own error as the basis for an editorial calling explicitly for forced expulsions of people living here legally. www.thetimes.com/comment/regi...
This entirely self-inflicted crisis will be particularly felt in Florida, which is home to about half of the nation’s 350,000 Haitian #TPS holders. Roughly 35,000 of these community members work as nurses or home health aides👇🏽
Gabe OrtízThe Supreme Court’s ruling allowing the Trump regime to unjustly terminate #TPS for Haiti and Syria is set to upend the lives of hundreds of thousands of our immigrant neighbors—and the many sick and elderly Americans who depend on them to survive: americasvoicecnn.substack.com/p/mass-depor...
