U.S. cyber defenders shaken by Trump's attack on their former boss “Every day feels somehow more bizarre than the last. It is incredibly difficult to focus on our mission,” one current Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency employee said.

The people tasked with keeping the country safe from foreign government hackers and cybercriminal gangs say they feel like they’re under attack from the administration they work under.

There we go. Support this man.

Grabbed at his appointment to become a citizen. Is this who we are? 😕🇺🇸

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night.

So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

Rubio on X: Last night, another 10 criminals from the MS-13 and Tren de Aragua Foreign Terrorist Organizations arrived in El Salvador.  The alliance between @POTUS and President @nayibbukele has become an example for security and prosperity in our hemisphere.

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process.

This is not lawful.

A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year.
