Can God get an amen?

While operations are coordinated at a members-only, private beach club — in between fundraisers and parties.

Remember when Congress authorized the use of force against Iran? Me neither. Any U.S. attack on Iran would violate U.S. and international law.

I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party. We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness — or one rooted in cruelty and rage.

so in conclusion, the state of the union is actually very bad because a man who tried to end democracy is using the government to personally enrich himself and his buddies while executing citizens and noncitizens alike

Senator Ron Wyden said details from his office's investigation into Epstein's finances shows a massive Treasury Department file locked away in a cabinet drawer, containing records of 4,725 wire transfers totaling nearly $1.1 BILLION flowing in and out of just ONE of Epstein's many bank accounts.

NEW: ICE has raided dormitories at the Dilley concentration camp to confiscate letters from children per @pabloreports.bsky.social. I have filed a FOIA request for them. @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social: the second we get anything, we will send it to you. 1/ www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-ice-co...

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

Gotta love seeing Jack White go hard into the paint on that loser Rogan.

So two foreign nationals discussed Jared Kushner, a guy who couldn't get security clearance but was able to get $2 billion from Saudi Arabia? And the content of the report is so sensitive that it can't be made public? Seems like Jared's dad may not wind up being the only felon in the family.

Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: “All of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: “If he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

Cruelty is the goal of this administration Putting a child who's recovering back into detention proves it Did you vote for this? Will you choose it again?

It doesn’t get any more disgusting than this.

part of me still can't believe the East Wing was completely destroyed and there have been no negative consequences or reports on whether items inside were properly archived or not

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

POWERFUL: With snow falling in freezing weather in Chicago last night, the massive anti-ICE/Border Patrol rally wrapped up in front of City Hall as the energized crowd chanted, "I believe that we will win!"

“U.S. District Judge Fred Biery excoriated the federal government, saying the case ‘has its genesis in the ill-conceived and incompetently-implemented government pursuit of daily deportation quotas, apparently even if it requires traumatizing children.’” www.ms.now/news/liam-ra...

BREAKING: A federal judge has just ordered the release of 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his father from the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas!

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders is introducing an amendment to cut ICE’s $75 billion funding increase, and to use those funds to restore the federal cuts to health care.

The Trump administration deported this five-year-old girl to Honduras despite her being a US citizen. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

BREAKING: Minnesota's chief federal judge has demanded the acting head of ICE personally appear in court Friday to explain what the judge described as repeated failures to comply with dozens of court orders amid its enforcement efforts in the state.

Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator. The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him. It's time for a massive general strike across the country.

🔥 “This started as a pretext about immigration and fraud… it’s WELL beyond that now. It’s into your 2nd/4th/6th Amendments… We’re performing CPR on what may already be a corpse called the Constitution… Wake up. This isn’t just Minneapolis. It’s ALL of us.” (H/T @allenanalysis.bsky.social )

A statement from the parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti:

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Primary ALL of them. Supporting violent, masked state police is inexcusable, especially after all the videos have shown them to be domestic terrorists who constantly ride roughshod over both people and the Constitution.

Liam Ramos, a preschooler ICE detained the five-year-old Minnesota boy as he returned home from school and transported him to a detention center in Texas.

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.

"Judges call curtains for Lindsey Halligan's 'masquerade' as U.S. Attorney" A Trump-appointee compares DOJ's lawyering to a "cable news talk show" and threatens disciplinary action if she persists. The court put out a job listing for her replacement. DEVELOPING buff.ly/IifXdNr

Gov. Newsom to Sky News: "I can't take this complicity of people rolling over. I should have brought a bunch of knee pads for all the world leaders. I mean, handing out crowns, the Nobel prizes that are being given away. It's just pathetic." "And I hope people understand how pathetic they look."

The president of the United States is, at this moment, having a full scale psychological breakdown

I never imagined that, in my lifetime, America's allies would be arranging troops and making preparations to guard against an American invasion. So many CAN stop this and choose not to. May they all rot in hell. Soon.

In case there were any doubts, that utterly bonkers message Trump sent to the Norwegian prime minister? It’s entirely real. He effectively argued, in writing, that his crusade for Greenland is partly the result of the Nobel committee hurting his feelings. #madking www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Today in life under competitive authoritarianism

This is deeply disturbing, especially after reports of growing concerns about the conditions at this facility. An investigation must take place. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

This is actually the really simple story of the collapse of American democracy. You can explain America’s constitutional collapse in a single coherent sentence:

You're willing to drag the world into deadly turmoil when your only reason for being in power it to avoid jail.

.@PabloReports: Stephen Miller seems to be operating sort of as a shadow president at this point. Is there any legal liability he could face at the end of this presidency? Ryan: There’s going to be legal—and I think criminal—liability for multiple members.. certainly Stephen Miller.

People are DEMANDING that you oppose Trump's Gestapo and protect people from being shot in the face by their government.

If Trump regrets not using the military to steal the 2020 election, does anyone really think he won't do it in 2026? We need a pro-democracy movement that is prepared to protect free and fair elections. I'll have more thoughts on this tomorrow. Subscribe to Democracy Docket now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up. Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.
