    Rage rant about the government admitting they wrongly sent a man to the El Salvador gulag and are not going to do anything about it.

    Did you know that 6th months ago, while presumably we were planning this stupid war, the Navy decommissioned its four Avenger-class minesweepers that had been stationed in Bahrain precisely to deal with Iranian mines in the Strait? More from @jvl.bsky.social .

    "The use of prisoners for propaganda purposes is as old as war itself. ISIS made extensive use... The Viet Cong and North Vietnamese...This is what evil, illiberal regimes do."

    Now that's us.

    I talked to @zachstafford.bsky.social about the gay Venezuelan make-up artist we sent to El Salvador with no due process and his experience reporting on the dangers facing LGBT people fleeing oppression.

    Watched the horrifying 60 Minutes segment on Andry & the others we have disappeared to CECOT. It’s so enraging and saddening at the same time folks must speak up.

    "The Democratic party has more to learn from Alexei Navalny or the protesters in Serbia than it does from Chuck Schumer or strategists obsessing over message-testing crosstabs."

    Somehow the GOP cutting support for UNICEF's general fund in the recission package has gotten very little attention. Its a move that will gravely harm the world's most vulnerable and save almost no money.

    There will be a vote today call your Senators.

    Much of the media has gotten bored with the Ukraine war so you may have missed that Russia took out a passenger train earlier today. 10 dead. Talked to @caolanrob.bsky.social from a train station in UKR about the uptick in RUS attacks on civilian targets

    Imagine if Dems in the Senate hadn't caved. The House wouldn't be in session rn, the discharge petition wouldn't be signed, people wouldn't have SNAP, govt workers would be RIF'd & the GOP would have some decent talking points. But also online rage addicts would be happier! YMMV!

    One man was parenting a special needs kid and we sent him to a gulag. The other doesn't even know if a kid is his and is just sending checks to the baby mama. We made him Shadow President.

    Spoke to @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social and Noah Lanard who have spoken to family members or friends of 10 people who have been sent to the El Salvador gulag.

    The number of Venezuelans who are totally innocent we sent there seems to be even greater than we imagined.
