You have to stop assuming he’s trying to do a good job. The current administration is not interested in governing. They are only worried about extracting as much wealth as possible and insulating themselves from the consequences
Ryan@BanUnsweetTea
Genuinely seems Trumps presidency is completely falling apart. Basic government services aren’t getting executed. He’s stuck in a quagmire in the Middle East. Job growth is negative and inflation is accelerating. Gas is 4-5 dollars a gallon. What a mess

The main objective of this war is to reopen a maritime crossing that was not closed a month ago and is now closed solely b/c of the war we started. Nine dimensional chess, baby!!! 🤡

Reopening the Strait of Hormuz — a critical conduit for global energy supplies — has emerged as perhaps the paramount objective of the Iran war. wapo.st/4sKDj4h

Minneapolis was an existentially seismic repudiation of popularism. It dramatically reversed what was supposed to be a permanent right-wing consensus on immigration and did so by forcibly altering the narrative with extraordinary rage and effective, disciplined collective action.

There is a seriousness of helium waste most people don't seem to comprehend. We can't make helium, there's no chemistry we can do - it's incredibly rare on Earth.
Eric Feigl-Ding@DrEricDing
FUN FACT—helium cools the superconducting magnets in more than 14,000 MRI machines used in hospitals worldwide. We lost the largest helium extraction plant in the world in Qatar. US reserves running low. Helium cannot be produced de novo. Any helium escape is permanent.

This story is HORRIFIC. This DACA recipient was brought here by his parents in 1999 when he was 8 years old. He is a laboratory scientist who's had DACA since 2012.
Now he's languishing in an ICE detention center because the Trump admin failed to process his renewal in time!

ICE seizes DACA recipient on way to visit premature baby in NICU. Trump admin is not renewing "Dreamers" who were given legal status as children to stay in U.S. -- says they can now be detained and deported. @lbarronlopez ms.now/news/ice-detai…

The country simply doesn’t function anymore. This is Republican rule, economic crashes, tax cuts for the rich, cuts to services, new wars in the Middle East. Every. Single. Time.

This is dangerous, immoral, and illegal - the third government he's tried to overthrow in the first three months of this year. We are in a worst case scenario of authoritarianism.

Trump: "I do believe I'll be having the honor of taking Cuba. That's a big honor. Taking Cuba in some form. I think I can do anything I want with it, if you want to know the truth."

This is so important: Hegseth, Rubio & co act with impunity because they think of America as a world boss whose power they wield. But they did nothing to build or preserve that power, and they are rapidly spending it down. Like an idiot heir who bankrupts the family business

The people who are running the American empire today have a tremendous amount of hubris but they are just inheriting something that other more competent people in the past built and that they could clearly never recreate nor apparently even maintain.

"A new way to get released" is quite the way to describe habeas corpus, a right so ancient that it predates the Magna Carta.
Jennie Taer@JennieSTaer
NEW: Illegal immigrants have found a new way to get released from ICE detention centers, throwing a massive wrench into the Trump administration’s deportation plan. Since Trump returned to the White House, illegal immigrants have filed more than 18,000 habeas petitions challenging their detention in federal courts. Its more than the number of such challenges filed over the last three administrations put together. U.S. Attorney in the District of Arizona Timothy Courchaine told @realDailyWire his office went from receiving 10 habeas petitions in immigration cases to “nearly a thousand” since Trump returned to the White House. “In most of them, they are [granting bond] … so we’ve been losing almost all of these and the folks will be released,” he said. dailywire.com/news/illegal-i…

Ilhan Omar has been incredible in terms of standing up for her constituents while ICE has been terrorizing Minneapolis.
Now a prosecutor for ICE is trying to run for Congress against Ilhan? Was their last job not shameful enough? Do they just enjoy being publicly embarrassed?
Justice Democrats@justicedems
A literal prosecutor for ICE is running against @IlhanMN. "This job sucks" is doing a lot of heavy lifting for someone who joined Trump's DOJ as an ICE prosecutor in April, said she supports his deportation machine & was "proud to work for ICE." This is a joke right?

The Khanna-Massie resolution to disengage US forces from Trump’s war against Iran just failed by a narrow 212-219 vote.
Two Republicans voted for it, but four Democrats voted against it.
If those four Democrats had stuck with their caucus and their voters, it would have passed.
