Whether it’s to Guantanamo or El Salvador, #republicans sure do love to ship off people who haven’t faced due process in order to determine their legal statuses.

In violation of these politicians’ oaths to uphold and defend the Constitution, of course.

In maybe the Most Canadian story ever, two political parties (the NDP and Bloc Québécois) are asking that tomorrow's French language election debate be postponed because it conflicts with a Montreal Canadiens game.

Interpreting the term “facilitate” in that manner, #KilmarAbregoGarcia's attorneys argued, would render "null" #SCOTUS’ order that the government facilitate his release.

“To give any meaning to the Supreme Court’s order, the Government should at least be required to request the release of Abrego Garcia. To date, the Government has not done so.”

MAGA as pro-#dementia: "Gone are ~$10 million in remaining money for a project that inc. 28 clinical & research sites across the country & 1700 participants w/mild cognitive impairments. 'We don’t have the ability to predict who’s going to get worse b/c we won’t be able to see them,' said DeCarli, who’s also co-director of the #Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center at #UCDavis. His project also had the goal of placing these participants in treatment & prevention trials.

Meanwhile fed govt is ignoring actual anti-Semitism like the firebombing of Josh Shapiro’s house on Passover.

So now Trump says, publicly in front of God and everybody, that US citizens will be arrested and deported to remote prisons.

First they came for the immigrants...
...and I was mad as hell.

Because I read the damn poem!

@Strandjunker And since we're at it - the reason the nazis were so efficient at eradicating the Dutch Jewish community during the occupation of 40-45, is because The Netherlands had an incredibly efficient and detailed population register. The nazis immediately sought access to these registers after the invasion, and they received little to no pushback from Dutch officials.

...just in case someone reading this is not worried about Musk accessing demographic records.

In case you missed it

Thanks for sharing! I was going to post something like, “Look how brave she is crawling out beyond the parapet of a tall building, or flying into combat armed with nothing but a camera,” but instead, I’ll just say, “Look how brave she is being a confident, capable woman at a time when women were systematically devalued.” #KickingAss #TakingNames
