Billionaires are fearmongering about California’s proposed billionaire tax. Baloney. Just look at what happened when Massachusetts raised taxes on the rich.

Donald Trump and his administration don't believe in science — that doesn't mean Americans have to suffer because of it. ICYMI: Illinois has joined @who.int's Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network to ensure we're prepared no matter who the President is.

Aaron Rupar is fantastic at watching shit so we do't have to. His posts this AM on the Dems grilling that pos bessent are cathartic. This is one; I don't know whether first, last, or middle; just jump on his timeline with this one & browse. Thanks Aaron! And drop him a dime if you can. He's in Mpls

O holy aunties everywhere! This is priceless

There could not BE a better candidate for Congress. He knows the ropes. He gets things done. He is a patriot to his core. He is an avid supporter of "We the People." And he is likeable as all get out.

"Yes, folks, the past few days have revealed yet again that somehow we managed to find our president in the bargain bin for damaged megalomaniacs at the end of a poorly lit aisle at Mad Kings R Us." I remember back in the before times following David Rothkopf on tw & thinking he was kinda staid.😄😄

That's the guy who took such good care of me when I showed up with Covid. Got me seen some damned place, got Rx about 4-5 hours after testing+. I repaid by giving it to him & that woman by him in the brown hat. She soldiered through, left food by my door since her case was lighter. What a pair!

🧵 A bit of history 1/ On this first day of Black History Month I'd like to offer a bit of history I am peripherally connected to. Now called The Chapel on the Green, the Bristol Congregational Church was founded by my great-great-great grandfather Justus Bristol, his wife Phoebe ⤵️

This refers to other nations, but it is even more l applicable domestically. Three more years wil fully eliminate the USA. It will join Ottoman Empire, Roman Empire, et al in history. "No one can have faith that if they just hunker down for the next three years, everything will go back to normal"

Get ICE out of our streets, communities, and cities. I see you all making your voices heard and being loud for America.

Tucson shut down 6 blocks downtown. Nurses being heard.

Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

For those who, like me, can't understand lyrics with music backdrop, here you go. genius.com/Bruce-spring...

It gives me the heebie jeebies to think if tharmt as our FBI director

Sometimes AI art. Is just fine

“He certainly shouldn’t have been carrying a gun. I don’t like that he had a gun,” Trump says about Alex Pretti. “I don’t fucking care that they have guns, they’re not here to hurt me… Let them in,” Trump said on J6. Get it? 2A is only for those who support him and his tyrannical regime.

1/2 I changed profile pic and banner. I retired the Polar Bear Patch I had there in respect for Iceland and our commitment to save Europe and the world from fascism. There's a link in by profile to the full story, but suffice it to say The PB represents FDR's commitment to deploy ⤵️

A reminder that Liam Ramos, the son of legal residents in Minnesota, is still being held in a Texas prison. A five year old little boy - and America’s global reputation - now scarred for life. (📸 Ali Daniel’s/AP)

Trump has relied on his "Roy Cohns" to fight his battles in courtrooms, has spent a lifetime abusing laws to get away with murder. Governors should dare him to come forward personally and debate them on this. 1v1. Repeatedly. Hound him. On FOXN. TACO Will he call STATE SOVEREIGNTY a hoax?

We need to campaign hard against Miller. Make them hear us.

Every time I see this I choke up. The outpouring of grief and sympathy from the public is great, the flowers and fencing and cross all great, but the reason for all of it is unchanged. I can't help picturing all that eventually being cleared, the street reopened, but Alex still gone. Forever.

Yes.spread it far and wide. So loud that trump panics. Start referring to Acting President Miller. After his whiney post about polls, it's clear that he has withdrawn into that image obsession 100%. Make him think it's miller's fault.

Thanks, Gov!

Stephen Miller, Not (Just) Kristi Noem and Greg Bovino, Must Be Held Accountable www.emptywheel.net/2026/01/26/s...

This lawless administration is now operating under the “what are you gonna do about it” doctrine. A John Roberts creation.

This!⤵️

"People now see Minneapolis as the front line in a war between the citizens of the United States and the monsters who currently control our government"

If 200 mllion people think the same thought will the cheeseburgers finally do their thing?

In previous instances of state violence, usually the agencies involved would at least pretend to urge restraint from their officers. DHS/ICE is obviously and explicitly telling its ghouls to escalate every possible situation toward a violent end. There is no "reigning this in." It must be destroyed.

We need millions of him

Impeach and remove ALL of this evil administration. Cheatolini must be jailed.

Excellent commentary. I always liked his reporting; when he and CNN parted ways I felt it was one of many examples of the demise of journalism under fascism. Just "discovered" his utube channel. Opening monologue is long but worth your time to watch. www.youtube.com/live/4YAz_mo... #donlemon

Good morning, beautiful friends. This is for you. It is for you and me, and for all of the people helping. We are the glue. #Jaye’sMorningLight 🩵🫂🩵

Bipartisan negotiators released a DHS funding bill that does not significantly reduce ICE and CBP’s funding nor rein in the agencies’ abuses of power. Make no mistake: Any Democrat who votes for this bill is complicit in Trump’s campaign of terror. Grow a spine and vote no.

Puts the pieces together well. We sure as HELL have an enemy within.

The constant downplaying of the real and actual threat that T poses by people who want to appear calm and in control does nothing but further normalize the actual destruction and incremental erosion of rights we're seeing on a daily basis. Everyone should indeed be furious.

Since Iceland and the US involvement in WWII are getting a lot of chatter today, I thought it appropriate to share a bit of history from when we were, albeit grudgingly, the good guys. www.dbc3.com/PB #iceland #USMC #WWII

The months were not kind to her

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

As a constituent I am not a Gallego fan. I don’t trust him AT ALL. He’s pretty much a jackass and I wouldn’t vote for him again. For anything. But at least when he finally figures out which way the wind is blowing he’s good at mouthing off about it.

1000000 percent this

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

Damned straight!
