This should horrify all of us! Women in ICE detention underwent invasive medical procedures without informed consent. Senator Jon Ossoff’s bipartisan investigation called the findings “nightmarish & disgraceful” Everyone deserves dignity, bodily autonomy & human rights! #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance

MacFarlane: Trump is already underwater when it comes to prices and the economy. And if prices go higher as we get closer to an election, that’s not just underwater. It’s like the S.S. Minnow crashing onto the island with no political lifeboats. They are stuck on that ship as it crashes.

Another co-sponsor has signed on to the bipartisan legislation to HALT the Trump $1.7 billion slush fund for convicted criminals The latest to sign onto the bill is Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO)

Sickening and un-American. Watch authoritarianism work.

Trump makes his priorities clear. He would rather take away your right to vote than help you afford a home.

it wasn't long ago that we had FBI directors who didn't post like jilted pre-pubescent boys

I don’t think people really understand how bad the OMB proposed rule is going to be for state and local govt. We’re talking about putting a full third of state budgets under the explicit control of Russ Vought. (1/2) www.bondbuyer.com/news/cities-...

really think that if democrats hold any chamber of congress next year that a condition of passing a budget is the removal of russ vought, who has a genuinely tyrannical vision of presidential power and is a focal point of the lawlessness of the trump administration

Here it is in nutshell folks. Say things to get noticed but never walk the talk. It's embarrassing and you can help people see that. The midterms are coming.

I recall a time when the FBI—and the Department of Defense and White House—weren’t run by ignorant men perpetually stuck in the 7th grade.

KEY: all three witnesses are being detained apart, and their story is consistent. They say that there were agents along the side of the vehicle but none in front. When you add the videos showing a lack of evidence of damage to the front despite ICE's ramming claim, ICE's story is falling apart.

Let's face it: ICE is *not* a law enforcement agency. It is a ragtag collection of angry, arrested development vigilantes and malcontents that has gone "Lord of the Flies" on us.

Democrats forced their Senate nominee out within days of a serious allegation. Republicans have repeatedly rallied behind candidates facing similar accusations. That difference says something important about what each party now tolerates. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

MacFarlane: Welcome back to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which has retained its very swampy, green-like color. It’s still fenced off. It’s still inaccessible. It’s still not in its best shape. It is reflecting again, but it’s almost like it’s quarantined in its green-like state.

It is important to remember that we the people are the ultimate democratic check. We must take back control of an out of control government. Do you believe ICE should be abolished as I do? Advocate for it. Write/call your rep. Join a group or start one calling to abolish ICE. Congress has the power

Imagine if any other president did this. Just months before the midterms, the bipartisan federal commission that helps states administer elections has been disbanded by Trump. Would your reaction be exactly the same? www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

I think @govandybeshear.bsky.social should just appoint a Dem to fill McConnell’s seat. It would force proof of life, and the state law that stripped him of that power should be challenged in court. I’m sure Thune would refuse to seat the appointee, but I think it’s a fight worth having. BE BOLD!

ICE fatally shot a man in Houston yesterday. Agents arrested a nun on her way to mass. An Afghan who helped the U.S. military died in ICE detention, one of at least 21 people to die in detention this year. The headlines have moved on, but Trump is still waging his reign of terror.
