Okay hear me out. Trump has his head shaved for surgery at Walter Reed. They're trying to keep this secret. The black bag thrown out of the WH window was his shaved hair.... I could be wrong.

The only reason prisons are able to pay incarcerated individuals less than minimum wage is because the 13 amendment exempts punishment in prison from the prohibition on slavery. They're legal slaves. That doesn't apply to civil detention for immigration. It's blatantly unconstitutional.

Take a listen and seriously consider it. While this is not an uncommon practice, I am glad people are beginning to speak up about it.

🚨Trump crawled back to Capitol Hill to push his One Big Billionaire Bill—slashing Medicaid so the ultra-wealthy get another tax break. Republicans are holding a hearing at 1am because they know they’re hurting working families and don’t want you to pay attention! Speak up! Drop a follow & share!

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️ They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador. Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose. No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

This is absolutely incredible -- Kristi Noem repeatedly refuses to acknowledge that Trump brandished an doctored image of Abrego Garcia's tattoos, prompting Eric Swalwell to have a staffer of his brandish an image of them right in her face. Totally dystopian.

MURRAY: It was due last week. By law. PATEL: I understand. MURRAY: You're not gonna follow the law? ... And you have no timeline? PATEL: No MURRAY: Hmm. We're not having a budget hearing without a budget request. So where is it?

Jobs growth was still solid in April. Not much evidence of negative tariff impacts yet as tariff announcements on Apr 2 gave little time for employers to respond before the survey reference period. Manufacturing did shrink slightly (-1,000), but is volatile month-to-month. 3/

Federal government employment is down by 26,000 since January -- a very clear DOGE effect, but nowhere close to the hundreds of thousand of job cuts we've heard about. Many of those workers are still on payroll, though, and therefore are still counted in the jobs numbers.

“.. judging only from price action, we are suddenly witnessing a comprehensive turn away from US assets (stocks, USTs, corporate credit and the dollar). this is the single most important theme to monitor over coming weeks. .. for the moment capital is flowing out of the US.” - GS Desk/Pasquariello
