Deporting children with cancer. Using a 5-year-old as bait. Shooting moms. ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

they hate it when you use their tactics against them

"Liam, age 5, was the fourth child in the district to be detained by immigration agents in the past two weeks, school officials said. "Two of them are high-schoolers. "One is a 10-year-old girl who was apprehended on her way to school..." www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/u...

Ossoff: "POTUS called for this man [Mark Kelly] to be hanged. A combat veteran, naval aviator, astronaut, senator. He demanded his execution bc he stated a principle enshrined in uniform code of military justice. If we become numb to that we lose sight of how extraordinary our obligations are."

#OnThisDay, 22 Jan 1944, Sonia Olschanezky is arrested by the Gestapo. She'd run an Special Operations Executive guerrilla network near Paris after the leader was arrested. The British-based SOE supported the French Resistance to Nazi occupation. #WomenInHistory #WorldWar2 🗃️

US law requires 2/3 Senate approval for international treaties

AOC: The president has been acting in increasingly erratic ways. It is really damning when we think about the degree to which media outlets reported on Joe Biden, yet we are seeing behavior from Trump that is alarming and everyone is pretending this is normal.

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Good. This is going to be a disaster. The less involved we are in it, the better.

US strike group seems to be getting ready to actually strike #Iran soonisch. I read Americans have about 2 weeks' worth of advanced missiles for pounding Iran, which is not much considering it might prove to be one of the biggest military op in the region for some time.

Why are we allowing tacky Donald to have another ballroom? He used the last one to showcase highly classified documents.

Trump's BOARD OF PEACE

Do it

While it made it as far as dress rehearsal, Tommy Brennan's Weekend Update desk bit on Trump's ICE deployments in his home state of Minnesota did not make it to SNL broadcast. But they've made it available anyway. And you should watch it.

Funny how the right is outraged at Fanone flipping off a congressman just days after celebrating a president flipping off a working American .

Frost: Any person who sees the president in his speeches blabbering incoherently knows that there is something bigger going on there.

He isn’t IN the Epstein files he IS the Epstein files!

We must stop the purchasing of our elected representatives by big money seeking favors.

AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.

"I'm not letting you go to my 12-year-old birthday party, the one you said you weren't going to because your mean mom said to avoid me. SO THERE!!! Jokes on you, loser!!! Uninvited!!!!"

Vance on the economy: "You don't turn the Titanic around overnight"

Wow -- Fanone coughs "go fuck yourself" to Trey Nehls as Nehls blames Capitol Police leadership for January 6

“He Can’t Do That” Is a Hope, Not a Strategy open.substack.com/pub/steadyst... "The question is are we prepared to respond when [Constitutional] limits are tested, ignored, or broken. History suggests that waiting until the law is fully cast aside is always too late."

Also, this story illustrates a fundamental truth: Trump's opinions are shaped by the last person he spoke to

From @theguardian.com

If you want to know if a severe winter storm is headed for Texas, the two most reliable indications are (1) looking at the weather forecast; and (2) looking to see if Ted Cruz is on a plane headed to warmer place with a palm-lined beach.

a heavily armed paramilitary force with legal immunity is occupying a city and going door to door kidnapping non-white adults and children in furtherance of an explicitly white nationalist political project

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

1/21/1853 — b. Helen Hamilton Gardener, American #gov official, suffrage leader, author, orator. Vice-chair, NAWSA Congressional Commission (1919). President Wilson appointed her to U.S. Civil Service Comm (1920), the first woman to hold a high federal post #womenshistory #womensrights #PolSky #BOTD

Donald Trump claims America is not being treated fairly by NATO. Nothing could be further from the truth. Trump + his administration has brought this all on themselves. The American people will have to pay the price. Every time Trump doesn't get his way he ALWAYS claims he's being treated unfairly.

FUCK. NO. source: actual experience living in dictatorships (unlike the delusional, traitorous lunatics cheering him on)

Greenland, Iceland, what's the difference

“she rubbed me the wrong way” says the rapist

It is important to acknowledge who is standing up and who is just trying to get by. Every day Americans are standing up while the powerful are mostly standing by. Why aren't law firms standing up and sending lawyers to Minneapolis. Why aren't the corporations speaking out? Why isn't the media?

Trump: "We've done a great job. I think the economy is phenomenal."

Let the sane washing begin

David Easterwood is his name. And being a Scientologist, Greta Van Susteren knows a thing or two about people in churches being involved in shady things, like disappearing people. #ShellyMiscavige

what do you MEAN Al Gore heckled Lutnick at Davos

From a decade ago, March 2016. And now here we are. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/don...

Mark Carney: "Stop invoking the “rules-based international order” as though it still functions as advertised. Call the system what it is: a period where the most powerful pursue their interests using economic integration as a weapon of coercion."

Canada starts preparing for guerilla warfare, just in case www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

Won't someone PLEASE, for the sake of all that's rational, give him some sort of prize to limit the worldwide damage he's been doing on a daily basis? #ThankYouForYourAttentionToHisDementia 🙏

Quite the statement from the Prime Minister of Poland
