Every week the regime bets that the resistance is tired. Every week it’s wrong. This edition is proof.
Two fired judges just broke their silence about the regime—hit the ❤️ like button and re-stack this edition right now. Help this story punch through the MAGA propaganda machine.
José Yugar-Cruz speaking at Escucha Mi Voz Iowa José Yugar-Cruz won his asylum case in January 2025. A federal judge ruled he couldn’t be sent back to his home country of Bolivia, where he had been tortured for refusing to help police officials run drugs.
Even after winning his case, the regime held him for eleven more months while looking for another country to send him to. That country was the Democratic Republic of Congo—a Central African nation he had never set foot in.
On Wednesday morning, ICE agents picked him up and told him where he was headed. By midday, his attorneys filed an emergency motion in federal court in Iowa. Less than four hours later, US District Judge Stephen Locher blocked the deportation entirely.
Getsy Hernandez of advocacy group Escucha Mi Voz Iowa didn’t mince words: “Deporting people to countries they’ve never lived in—with no support and with real danger—is putting their lives at risk, and it must end.”
The regime spent nearly a year coming up with a plan to deport Yugar-Cruz. It unraveled in hours.
Rep. Ayanna Pressley — April 16, 2026 Rep. Ayanna Pressley has been leading the fight for over a year to extend Temporary Protected Status for 350,000 Haitian immigrants living and working legally in the US. The regime is dead set on deporting all of them.
On Thursday, the House voted 224-204 to pass Pressley’s bill to extend those protections for Haitians through 2029. Mike Johnson refused to let the bill come to the floor, so Pressley forced the vote using a discharge petition—a congressional procedure that bypasses GOP leadership entirely. Ten Republicans broke ranks. The regime couldn’t even hold its own caucus.
Pressley was direct: “This is a monumental victory in a long-fought battle to protect the safety, dignity, and humanity of our Haitian neighbors.”
The resistance just made the regime lose a vote on one of Trump’s signature issues. That’s what winning looks like.
N
ina Froes (Left) and Roopal Patel (Right)Immigration judges work for the DOJ. The attorney general can remove them at will. Speaking out is a one-way door—and the regime has made sure everyone on the bench knows it. They’ve purged 113 judges so far. That’s one in seven of all immigration judges in the country.
Roopal Patel and Nina Froes were two of them. Both ruled against the regime in deportation cases and paid for it with their jobs. Both found out they had been fired mid-hearing, sitting on the bench when the email arrived. Then they did something judges almost never do—they spoke out.
Patel didn’t hold back: “I think, no matter how I ruled in that case, I would have been fired. This is part of this larger pattern of trying to reshape the bench to have people who are ready to enforce their mass deportation agenda.”
Froes drew the line: “It was a pressure I at least tried to actively resist. All people in the United States are entitled to due process, and everyone deserves to have their cases adjudicated fully and fairly.”
The regime tried to silence them. Instead, it started a conversation they can no longer control.
Rep.-Elect Analilia Mejia
Analilia Mejia is the daughter of a Dominican factory worker and a Colombian seamstress. On Thursday night, she won New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District by nearly 20 points. The AP called it only seven minutes after polls closed.
In 2024, former VP Kamala Harris carried this district by nine points—Mejia more than doubled that, despite Republicans spending half a million dollars calling her a socialist. “We did the impossible and we won,” Mejia told a packed room in Montclair when the results came in.
Mike Johnson’s majority just got one seat thinner. Republicans didn’t even try to spin it. “We got our butts kicked,” one party official said. November is coming.
This is what the resistance looks like when it’s working. It shows up—in courtrooms, state capitals, and at the ballot box—and it fights. We’ve been leading this charge since 2016—organizing, pressuring Congress, and building one of the largest resistance networks in the country.
Now we’re using everything we’ve built to flip the House and Senate. No billionaires fund this. No corporations. No ads. Just readers who decided this fight is worth funding. Be one of them:

JUST A FEW WELL INFORMED COMMENTS:
The Corruption in this regime is RAMPANT from top to bottom. They are following the Project 2025 plan and do NOT care who or what it impacts. They are going to do as much damage to America as fast as they can while they are able. They will not stop until they are stopped. One solution vote out every single Republican everywhere in America (and Democrats who will not stand up for and fight for America - like Fetterman). And if you are "represented" by a Republican put the screws to them. And let them know that America is fed up with their back stabbing Orange God/Golden Idol worship and it is time to stand up for America or get the hell out!!! It happened in Hungary and it is going to happen here. And do NOT let the Republicans get away with their "crimes" against America.......they will follow them where ever they go. They can act to fix the mess they made or pay for the damage they did and are doing!!!!
My biggest concern is ruling out Elon Musk‘s money that he’s investing in the technology with which he has screwed. A republican bought the Dominican voting machines. 🤷♀️ I’ll keep hoping 🦅🇺🇸🦅
If we take the senate along with the house the entire dialogue will change.
Yep. We’ll impeach every member of this regime if we have to. Mike Johnson too.
Ahhh...don't pick on Poor Toady Mikey! He enjoys LONG VACATIONS! Shouldn't GENEROUSLY PAID MAGGOTS be entitled to VACATIONS?
It's very tiring to avoid your constituents.....
Little Mikey likes to get things done at NIGHT!

April 17, 2026
In the dead of the night, Republicans tried to push through a shady bill that lets the government spy on you without a warrant for the next 5 years.
We defeated Speaker Johnson's clownish attempt to violate your civil liberties.

Watch the DOWN BALLOT races - this is MICHIGAN GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE vacationing during the GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN:
THE DOWN BALLOT reported on:
Michigan Rep. John James (R), reportedly visiting the Turks & Caicos in April 2026 during a partial government shutdown (credit: Distill Social)
Morning Digest: John James no longer leads as his absentee campaign enrages Republicans
Why the former frontrunner can't "ride a beach chair to victory"
Michigan Rep. John James (R), reportedly visiting the Turks & Caicos in April 2026 during a partial government shutdown (credit: Distill Social)
excerpt:
“While Michigan families struggle, John James is living large in the Caribbean,” a Michigan-based outlet called Distill Social tweeted early this month as it shared what it said was a picture of the congressman on vacation in the Turks and Caicos Islands. “Hey @TMZ we got one for ya.”
The gossip giant, which was gleefully turning its cameras on members of Congress who were on vacation as the Department of Homeland Security remained shut down, was indeed interested, and it published a piece on James.
Columnist Nolan Finley soon wrote in the Detroit News that Distill’s photo of the congressman, who has missed more votes than any other member of Michigan’s 13-person House delegation, only made it easier for Johnson to portray him as a “disengaged politician.”
Finley also noted that James has continued to avoid debates and other events where he hasn’t been guaranteed a supportive crowd, arguing that the one-time polling leader was “mounting a defensive campaign, running not to lose rather than to win.” Thanks to Johnson’s well-funded operation, though, it’s no longer a viable strategy for James.
If you were an immigration judge and got that email mid-hearing—what would you do?
I think I would speak with the judge to see if I couldn't at least finish the case I was working on. Somehow we NEED to get this fascist regime OUT!!!
Ten Republicans broke ranks to protect Haitians—what does that tell you about where the GOP is heading into November? OUT, OUT, and OUT! If they are backing tRUMP in the least they are part of the problem! I just attended our local Holocaust memorial week long presentations. The very first speaker, Dr. Michael Booker, went through the 20 points that make a regime fascist and this tRUMP et al regime met every single one! I'm so glad Orban got ousted in Hungary! I sincerely hope that sets the stage for OUR coming elections! We need to WIN BIG!
If I was an immigration judge and got that message I would call a press conference and shout it from the rooftops. Too many people do NOT know what the hell is going on in our country on any issue, let alone how our courts - the benchmark of democracy - are under attack every day. What surprises me, though, is how many judges appointed by the POS rule AGAINST him and his administration.
It's about time that R's voted FOR humanity instead of for their demented leader. I wish they would do this for every targeted nationality, as well as for Americans struggling to survive. How about asking how people would deal with the DINO's...the four to six Dems who continuously vote with the R's and against democracy? How would people deal with these traitors to democracy? BTW, I don't care if they live in a "red" district. They were elected as Dems and they need to act that way to resign.
Scott, the 10 Republicans who voted with the Democrats to extend the TPS status for Haitians indicated that some of them are worried about November, they’ve been in a hospital lately and know who’s doing the dirty work or they have found their backbone.
Ok, so if José Yugar-Cruz WON his asylum case in January 2025, why was the administration still trying to deport him? Holding him another ELEVEN months?? And, um, they decide finally on the CONGO? No.
This regime is so thoroughly corrupt, cruel and god-awful, it’s breathtaking.
Fetterman has got to go! The Boundary Waters between Canada and America are going to be devastated by one vote. The only positive thing that could save them is a 1909 treaty between Canada and US. BRING ON THE LAWSUITS!!!
I rejoice as I have known many Haitians. The ones I worked with in my restaurant years were hard working, loyal and very honest.
Rep. Ayanna Pressley – another fighter who makes me proud to be from Massachusetts!
Your comments are AMAZING and INSPIRING!
Let's not forget that when BIDEN was President, he targeted many of the REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED STATES because they lagged so far behind the rest of the nation. They lacked adequate INTERNET ACCESS, CABLE NEWS ACCESS (limited to SINCLAIR or other warped sources).
WE ARE A NATION AND ALL AMERICANS are entitled to accurate information that improve their lives.
States that promote TEN COMANDMENTS in classrooms instead of improving their PISS POOR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM serve neither their UNEDUCATED CONSTITUENTS, nor the future competitiveness of our nation.
A state that promoted the purchase of TRUMP'S OVERPRICED PRINTED IN CHINA BIBLE as education defines failure! (It's been defeated, but the platform remains.)
Let's not ignore that AMERICA IS A COMMUNITY!
ALL AMERICANS DESERVE THE SAME EDUCATION, OPPURTUNITIES AND INFORMATION that's available to BECOME THE BEST THAT THEY CAN BE!
As such, let's promote and support those candidates from those REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED STATES that are fighting for reform.
ONE NATION UNDER GOD SHOULD MEAN ONE NATION WITH EQUAL OPPURTUNITIES, EQUAL EDUCATION, EQUAL ACCESS TO INFORMATION.
