I mean,

Solidarity with every single person participating in today’s general strike against ICE’s terror campaign. You’re changing the world ✊🏽❤️

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — A former Illinois deputy has been sentenced to 20 years for fatally shooting Sonya Massey, who called 911 for help.

I don’t cower to bullies 💪🏽

The parents of Alex Pretti have retained a former federal prosecutor who helped Minnesota's attorney general convict the police officer who kneeled on George Floyd's neck of murder. https://to.pbs.org/3ZA2HfU

Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, Greg Bovino. They must all resign and be held accountable.

I made a promise to Alex’s parents to continue to tell his story. An ICU nurse at the VA, an outdoorsman, a deeply generous, compassionate friend and family member, and a true son of Minnesota. Rest in peace, Alex.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Nine DAs are coalescing to work on prosecuting federal agents for 'overreach': —L. Krasner in Philly —J. Creuzot in Dallas —M. Moriarty in Minneapolis —L. Conover in Tucson —S. Descano in Fairfax (VA) —R. Fatehi in Norfolk (VA) —S. Morales in Portsmouth (VA) —P. Dehghani-Tafti in Arlington (VA)

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Alex Pretti should be alive. I voted NO on DHS funding last week because ICE will not get a blank check to terrorize our neighborhoods. Senate Democrats are right to block funding for DHS until ICE is reined in and held accountable. youtu.be/Et0NACrREqA

I came away from the Davos discourse certain of one thing: we need more workplace trends thought leadership. So I* built Workplace Buzzword Slots. workplacebuzzwordslots.com *Well, Claude did, but I wrote some pretty fire prompts for it, not gonna lie.

Alex Pretti’s dad: “He cared about people deeply & was very upset with what was happening...He thought it was terrible, you know, kidnapping children, just grabbing people off the street. He cared about those people, he knew it was wrong, so he did participate in protests” apnews.com/article/immi...

Joe Rogan worked his ass off to get Trumpery elected.

An extremely close race is being counted right now in South Carolina, where Democrats are aiming to flip a GOP-held legislative seat. Where we're at: with roughly 50% of the vote counted, the Democrat nominee is up by 18 votes. (Turnout is quite low, so that's enough for a lead of 0.8%.)

In less than a week, I will be sworn in as the next mayor of New York City. It was only possible because of the more than 100,000 people who volunteered on our campaign. Here’s a story about one of them, my mother.

BREAKING The US Supreme Court has blocked President Trump from deploying the National Guard to Chicago. 6-3 vote with Justices Thomas, Alito and Gorsuch dissenting.

what do we think the revamped 60 Minutes segment will look like? the obvious answer is it will include interviews with the administration, but an underrated contender is interviews with victims of purported migrant crime.

He honestly thinks it’s his house.

A week ago, I wrote that Democrats flipped 21% of all state legislative seats held by the GOP that were in play this year. Republicans, meanwhile, had flipped none. This KY seat was one of just a couple left before the end of 2025. boltsmag.org/legislative-...

Pro-wrestling legend Mick Foley announced this morning that he's parting ways with WWE over the organization's "close relationship with Donald Trump," saying the president's "incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death is the final straw for me."

This is what happens when the FBI is run by two right-wing conspiracy theorist podcasters who spent the last 11 months purging almost anyone with institutional knowledge from the bureau. They're going to keep fucking this kind of thing up.

#LameDuckWatch 🦆

A huge night for Democrats: —They flip Miami's mayorship. —They flip a state House district in Georgia that had voted Trump by 13%. —They keep Albuquerque's mayorship, while the liberal faction flips city council. —And they get big overperformances (+18 & +22) in 2 Florida specials.

Don't look now, but based on early returns Democrats have a shot at flipping a legislative seat in Georgia tonight... The results from Athens are gigantic for their candidate. More momentarily.

CONFIRMED: Eileen Higgins, a Democrat, will be the new mayor of Miami. She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

Polish Foreign Minister replies to Musk: 🇵🇱

“This should be the end of this case. If they continue, undeterred by a court ruling and a grand jury’s rejection of the charges, it will be a shocking assault on the rule of law and a devastating blow to the integrity of our justice system." www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

We have the early vote from 8 counties so far in #TN07, and the results are consistent with a big overperformance by Democrats... but as to how close the race will be, the major caveat is that the GOP tends to be stronger on Election Day votes.

Welcome to a busy Election Day. The menu? Well, yes, here it is:

/2 Chuck C. Johnson is one of those people who make you want take God by the lapels and say “what were You thinking”? And then God would be yeah, yeah, I know, and be depressed and go lay on a couch and eat crackers in the dark for a few days

if you ate a costco hotdog, you may be entitled to compensation

Here's one office Dems could flip on Tuesday. (No, it's not in TN!) The Republican mayor of Roswell, a Georgia city of 90K, finished just one percentage point ahead of his Dem challenger on November 4. The runoff is in a few days. One of my Dec elections to watch: boltsmag.org/whats-on-the...

Democrats’ wins in Virginia this month means they’ll be able to keep advancing a measure to end the state’s unusually harsh system of lifetime felony disenfranchisement.

HUGE development IN hearing for Comey selective prosecution motion, It turns out that the grand jury NEVER saw the operative indictment. Whole separate basis for dismissal. Standby for more.

This thing is getting tossed.
