Federal agents reporting to Secretary Noem have spent weeks snatching up families, scaring law-abiding residents, violating due process rights, and even detaining U.S. citizens. They fail to focus on violent criminals and instead create panic in our communities.

ICE agents arrest Alderperson Jessie L. Fuentes (26th Ward of Chicago city council) after she questions them on whether they have a signed judicial warrant to arrest a person at Humboldt Park Hospital. “He has Constitutional rights.” “No.” ICE’s exact mindset: no one is allowed any rights now.

So it might not be a rise in antisemitism but rather a growing sense that state of Isreal is not doing enough to end this.

Just back from a week in Corfu lovely island. Lush green and full of history.

So pleased to be able to contribute some of my research ideas concerning the UK's biggest judicial stain in the latest episode of the excellent Trapped podcast on IPP sentences. A shameful injustice. #IPP #custodialcompassion #pastoralcare embed.acast.com/$/646ce6e2fe...?

Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion

I know you, Chicago — and I know you’re up to the difficult time we have ahead, thanks to this President.

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

A protest against the visit of US vice-president J.D. Vance has been staged in Charlbury, the Oxfordshire town closest to his holiday venue of Dean. The demonstration, organised by the Stop Trump Coalition and local residents, featured placards such as “Cotswold childless cat ladies say go home”.

Whoa, Alabama. 💥 Birmingham-area activists put up a Trump–Epstein billboard on a busy highway: “What’s the big secret, fellas?”

“After reviewing the files, Bondi and Patel ordered FBI agents to black out every mention of Trump. Why? If Trump only pops up occasionally as an innocent bystander, why the blackout if the mentions? If Trump did nothing concerning, why not just release the files?” www.thebulwark.com/p/drinks-app...

Hello journalists. If you report this you gotta say that under the Constitution he has no power to do it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trump’s former casino president, Jack O’Donnell: Epstein was Trump’s best friend during those days… Donald and Jeffrey had come into the casino in the wee hours of Sunday morning, you know, two buddies, they had 3 women with them…the women that they brought down were underage to be in the casino

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

AOC: “grounds for impeachment” Jeffries: “Trump needs to explain”

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

lol

Privatisation Racket. 20 companies controlling UK supply, production, transmission of energy made operating profits of £514bn in 2020-24. Profit margins at electricity/gas supply companies up by 363%; electricity generation up by 198%. They get subsidies too. More in the linked article.

It is 2002. I am 18 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2008. I am 24 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2020. I am 36 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2025. I am 41 years old. We are in a—

March saw the third-highest number of layoffs in U.S. history, and 80% of them were caused by DOGE This was before the tariffs It's just...unbelievable

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person. I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

I know this is extremely vulgar idealism, but I do think we should try to aggressively reassert the norm that lying is bad. Not in a "Four Pinnochios" fact-checking kind of way, but in a way that frames this kind of lying as moral degeneracy that is fundamentally corrosive to the human spirit.

The co-president says speaking against Putin’s interests is akin to treason. So I guess that’s where we are now.

They called him Sleepy Joe because we could sleep at night.

If the USA tries to take Greenland by military force do we think Europe should/would stop them?

The 1st president of the U.S. to ever have an unelected bureaucrat in the Oval Office after that guy bankrolled his campaign with $250M just congratulated himself for draining the swamp and announced, "The days of rule by unelected bureaucrats are over." You can't make this up.

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

I haven’t watched CNN or MSNBC for months. I have a broad range of trusted online news sources. I don’t miss cable news at all — particularly since those networks decided to add a slew of right-wing commentators for “balance.” Screw that.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

Every accusation is an intention.

He skis like shit.

He didn't wear a suit, but he received a pardon and was treated better than Zelenskyy was.

“If Roosevelt had told Churchill to sue for peace on any terms with Adolf Hitler and to fork over Britain’s coal reserves to the United States in exchange for no American security guarantees, it might have approximated what Trump did to Zelensky.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/o...

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

This is an absolute must-read from Ian Dunt.

Repost & like, if you stand with President Zelensky!

The idea that JD Vance—who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internet—believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide

The guy who asked Zelensky if he owned a suit, Brian Glenn, is a reporter for the pro-Trump media network Real America’s Voice and also Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's boyfriend. He got one of the rare Oval Office interviewer spots only after the White House blocked the Associated Press.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

The scenes in the Oval Office today will shame the US for decades. They’ll never be forgotten. A world leader, fighting for his country against the 21st century’s Nazis, came to the US and was attacked & abused by a gangster regime siding with the fascist invaders. A historic disgrace.
