Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.

"Here are the demands we all need to make: Use the National Guard to protect our citizens. Arrest agents who commit crimes. Charge police, National Guard, and ICE with crimes when they commit or refuse to stop them. . . . Do it now." cmarmitage.substack.com/p/my-first-7...

We’ve now sent over 10,000 letters to Congress demanding they impeach Kristi Noem! Have you sent one yet today?

If you're a young person you have no idea how long we've all been listening to Small Government and Liberty stuff from the right. Nobody at all believed any of it lol

The country sure does seem to descend into chaos a lot when Trump is in charge of it

Renee Good should still be here. She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth. She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

AOC: That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Walz: "It's beyond me that apparently from the federal government, the Homeland Security director herself, has already determined who this person who, what their motive was, and they hadn't even been taken out of the vehicle. We're not living in a normal world."

i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

🎯

If they could do this to Renee Nicole Good, they could do this to you. This is a lawless regime.

We condemn ICE's killing of a Minneapolis woman today and call on federal agents to withdraw from Minnesota immediately. This tragedy is further proof that ICE is out of control, endangering our communities, and must end its lawless operations before anyone else is brutally hurt or killed.

We have to impeach him.

I hope 2026 is kind to us all

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.” Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

It is now December 1858, 2020.

Not only does this intentionally violate the First Amendment to the US Constitution, it’s vile to watch mean-spirited, selfish ghouls who starve the poor and kidnap people for their skin color sanctimoniously pretending they follow any of the teachings of Jesus.

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

The President of the United States is a liar.

Merry Christmas, New York City 🎄🗽 [Animation by Sarah Elawad]

Happy Holidays, everyone! 💫 I hope you have a great time with your loved ones or at least have some chill days to unwind. I love you all ♥️

You’ve held your action for the right moment: Now is the time to act.

support independent media. idk what else to say right now.

There’s no such thing as clean coal.

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

The blockade of Venezuela is a disgusting echo of U.S. imperialism in Latin America. We were lied to about Iraq and WMDs, and an entire generation paid the price. Here we are again. We cannot let a wannabe dictator drag us into another forever war. www.axios.com/2025/12/17/t...

Rand Paul, who hand delivered a note from Trump to Putin with unknown contents, wanted to get rid of the espionage act. Here is a reminder from Senator John McCain that Rand Paul and Donald Trump work for Vladimir Putin.

Happy Hanukkah to our friends who celebrate. Rachel Posner, a rabbi’s wife in Kiel, Germany, took this photograph in 1931 -- a potent reminder that fascism must be fought in every generation, even if it's wrapped in an American flag and a red hat.

ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl. Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist. They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed. Another horrific story. More details below.

It was #artistday !? I didn't even know there was one! Happy (late) Artist Day!!! #cats #fionnaandcake #fireflies #comics #fennel #mixedmedia #digitalart #djflame #adventuretime #clipstudiopaint

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

We deserve to know why our government is murdering civilians at sea.

this perfectly captures this entire administration’s “the emperor has no clothes” energy we are all expected to pretend this man is the King of Health, and he himself believes it, which is why he confidently in front of witnesses attempted a thing he cannot do, knowing they will all say that he did

again?

This is absolutely awful. This was one of the best resources for climate indicators data, and my go-to share for help answering public questions. Luckily I captured some of them on my new U.S. climate page a few months ago: zacklabe.com/united-state...

It’s pretty bad when the only person praising your military doctrine is Vladimir Putin. Let’s impeach this fascist dictator before it’s too late for American democracy!

🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈I dream of the day when the world can become a place where transgender people can live proudly and freely as themselves, and where they can love freely As a mascot, I see human love as beautiful and wonderful. I love you all today as well♡

Trump's attacks against the Somali community are racist, vile, & predictable. As prices rise & his popularity plummets, Trump is resorting to hate and division — hoping he can get you to blame your neighbors, so you'll forget about his failures. Don't drink his poison.

Read these words. This is your country doing this: “Pregnant & postpartum women report starving in ICE custody, freezing cells, invasive procedures, miscarriages, their pleas for help going unanswered.” Thank you @rfkhumanrights.bsky.social @the-independent.com for shining a light on these horrors
