I really don't care about anyone's "he can't do this because states run elections!" argument. This is an explicit pledge to rule lawlessly by the commander-in-chief of the world's most powerful military, who is also currently constructing a nationwide system of detention camps.

Whether it’s Barack Obama, putting Dijon mustard on a hotdog or RFK Jr. snorting cocaine off a toilet seat, both men made some curious decisions.

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.

Exceptions for “travel”? And the depths of legal arguments and “articulated”, he doesn’t talk like this. This reads like Stephen miller wasn’t available so the social media intern went with AI slop.

Good.

Jerry’s profile photo appears on the screen and fades to black and white as Sarah McLachlan’s ‘Angel’ starts to play. Countless spouses who don’t even use this app have been subjected to this terrorist’s musings and “comedy”. With your donation we can put an end to this madness.

The Project 2025 author is using millions of dollars in USAID money for his own security detail. It is estimated that 762,000 people have *already died* as a result of Elon Musk and Russell Vought’s obscene murder of USAID, including more than 500,000 children. Vought is a mass murderer.

Good night, moon, Good night, goons, Good night, El Paso party balloons.

Just yesterday I was shitting on the Atlantic as being a welfare system for right of center and “libertarian” young boomer/Gen X political columnists who are otherwise intolerable and unemployable…and they are not beating the allegations.

This summary while accurate doesn’t do justice to how awful the terms for the security grants are. It’s much more than supporting ICE, it’s also agreeing to not have ANY DEI programming, and an unconstitutional ban on protest against Israel.

The Trump administration is trying to divide Jews from other marginalized communities at a time of rising antisemitism and fascism, by forcing Jews to choose between supporting ICE or rejecting federal security funding. It is an unacceptable choice,. www.jta.org/2026/02/11/i...

Really rough to see antisemitism get more and more mainstreamed over just a few years. Never thought I’d see it happen in this country, quite honestly.

Navi but it’s Neelix.

May this follow her the rest of her miserable life.

Folks, it is extremely weird and a red flag to run around like Mulder shouting “I want to believe” about Epstein being an Israeli asset and then being upset when other people say there’s no proof and demanding people review 3 million documents before judging your unsubstantiated claim.

I was diagnosed with MS 12 years ago after an attack of full body neuropathy. I’ve been really lucky that I haven’t had any subsequent attacks. Still, the possibility always hangs over me, and the possibility of taking that stress from others was joyous to me. This is so awful.

About "agitators" -- 1. Homan can't even capitulate without threatening more illegal, military-ish force against people exercising their 1A rights. 2. I doubt it's unintentional that they continue to use a loaded term inextricably linked with segregationists and bigots.

Racist and Islamophobic.

So umm, my childhood babysitter became an AVN award winning pornstar. I think that qualifies.

He is lying, but he is speaking now in an aspirational tone to try to defend the existence of the agency, which is a win. Keep the pressure on.

Do I trust Tom Homan, no. But what I am hearing is: the occupation is moving elsewhere. Until they do, we need to keep caring for our neighbors. After they do, we need to keep caring for our neighbors. And we need to stand ready to support wherever is next. Abolish ICE.

Love seeing Lilly paying Olympians to be paid spokespeople for medicines for conditions they DON'T have and disclosing that in 3pt font for 4 seconds at the bottom of the ad. What are we doing here folks?

Coincidentally m though they’ve started an approval poll for all potential democratic nominees past present and future.

Look at what they’re doing to schools. Attendance cut in half or more in many. Armed, masked agents lurking in the parking lots at dropoff time, forcing families to physically protect children with their bodies. The other day ICE drew weapons outside an elementary school, forcing it into lockdown.

grim answer: the US can "afford" to fund a robust Medicare system *and* a racist immigration enforcement militia. the question is of political will or consensus, we're not weighing "Immigration Bucks" vs "Groceries" in the month's plan.

if i can do a little (hopefully useful) pedantry: the reason why this is popular is because it's accessible to common experience. it sounds like a household budget, but that's not how it works in reality. i'm not sure it's generally long-term useful for progressives and liberals to indulge it, tbh.

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

If you're an attorney in Minnesota, the MSBA is offering a CLE this Friday (2/13), at noon, about the latest developments in our communities' legal needs, and providing guidance on how attorneys in all practice areas can support efforts to meet them. Free for members mnbars.org?pg=events&ev...

Also about 10% of the eligible jurors in DC are lawyers. And probably at least half the juror pool works themselves or has someone close who works for the government and know govt irregularity when they see it.

PS I'm 100% certain boys & young men were also victims of Epstein/Trump/et al's evil, not least bc there have always been boy & men survivors (eg ⬆️). I believe the TikToker about his experience. And I don't begrudge anyone their deep-dive theorizing (abt any of it); I just don't want it in my @'s.

I’m not exaggerating when I say this could be the largest conspiracy in human history. The sheer size and scope of Jeffrey Epstein’s pedophilia and abuse network is astonishing. A truly global network and we have records AND key players in custody. Only one reason for the DOJ to act this way.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE: "I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

The idea of a bill rendering people deportable for following religious law should make every Jew ill

Age Verification? Our family Mac had Power Pete.

So watching finished Olympic evens on peacock and when it comes back from the ad breaks, the broadcast has continued!? They aren’t pausing the previously finished event, they’re running ads OVER the content. Why would they do this?!

Remember to tell people that things have NOT DEESCALATED. Pulling 700 agents means there's 2,300 agents on our streets, terrorizing us and kidnapping our neighbors.

Another classic post-Homan day where around school dismissal time we get a flurry of ICE vehicles all across our neighborhoods. Today one vehicle led an observer to their own home and pointed at it. This is a sick game to them, but we won’t be intimidated and we won’t stop until DHS is abolished.

The Trump administration plans to rescind $600 million in public health funds from four states led by Democrats because it finds the grants “inconsistent with agency priorities,” according to documents reviewed by the NYT Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/09/h...

We saw this pattern in infrastructure cuts during the shutdown, cuts alleging social services fraud, cuts to contractors under DOGE: all targeted to blue states. It is an obviously partisan abuse of power, brazen and on a scale we simply have not seen before. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/a-year-on-...

Do attorneys usually advertise that their client is willing to lie to congress in exchange for clemency?

Mortality rates were so high on sugar plantations during slavery that slaveholders used to coerce enslaved people working other crops like cotton with threats to sell them or their loved ones to sugar plantations. That’s where the term “sold down the river” came from.

To reject the US as a fundamentally American country with a deep shared history and commonality with the rest of the Americas, including that Spanish has long been our de facto national second language, is on a deep level anti-American. It's hating actual American culture and history and tradition.

That ad started off so good before it was for hims/hers.

Bad Bunny for Vanity Fair in 2023: “What I do, I do from my heart...I believe that every human being has the duty to have empathy for others, to help others, to respect them, to always try to contribute something to society, to bring a positive change.” www.vanityfair.com/style/2023/0...

I’m not repeating the bit because even patriots fans deserve to be treated with dignity.

Is the Seahawks MVP Jason Myers or Drake Maye?

The halftime show included several messages. Don’t miss this one.

Given how boring this Super Bowl is they really should have shown the fan on the field.
