Steyer: If you can’t stand up for the rule of law, and instead stand by for cold-blooded murder of American citizens—you forfeit your right to be a leader. You forfeit your right to talk about things that are not about money. All you get to talk about is money, because that’s all you care about.

As a veteran who’s deployed, I know exactly what “in theater” means. It’s a military term for operations in foreign countries. Using it to describe Minneapolis isn’t accidental…and I can’t overemphasize how dangerous that language shift is.

Lord, have mercy. The dumbest man in the Senate opens his piehole about the 2020 election. Embarrassing Alabama since... 🧾 www.usatoday.com/story/news/p... 🦋 bsky.app/profile/ther...

This Tuberville guy's a real fucking tool! Remember what he did in 2023? Tuberville once blocked hundreds of military nominees for advancement.

I find this baffling. If we were so good at cheating in 2020, why didn’t we do it in 2024?

By “cheat” I think he really means “Black and gay men aren’t supposed to be senators, specially not in Georgia”

Imagine the worst possible thing your mind will allow you to conjure up, that Trump might do. As someone who has focused on human behavior for my entire adult life, I confidently say…whatever you imagined, he’d be willing to do it, if he believed it would further his agenda. Take that to the bank.

Good roundup and analysis from Joyce Vance. joycevance.substack.com/p/minnesota-...

Getting the impression that ICE is gearing up for a pogrom in Springfield, Ohio, which was ground zero of Vance’s lies about Haitians during the campaign. Haitians lose temporary protected status on February 3rd. Reporters, lawyers, neighbors — please get ready.

There is no reason any of these men need any of this gear. This entire situation is not only dangerous and illegal. It is absurd and stupid. www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

BULSO: “Charlie Kirk’s assassination will have a similar effect on 🇺🇸 as JFK & MLK.” 🤔 Rep. Gino Bulso tells a Williamson County audience his bills attack 🏳️‍🌈 marriage & trans people, put prayer & the Bible as literature in K-12, and make 9/10 “Charlie Kirk Day”

UPDATED MINNESOTA ICE GUIDANCE: “All targets must be have a criminal Nexus” So… that wasn’t the case up until now? Is this not an admission of guilt? 🤷🏼 www.reuters.com/world/ice-of...

🗣️ @waltermasterson.bsky.social : “ICE agents get 47 days of training because Trump's the 47th president. It's literally that stupid… Dems could defund ICE in the appropriations bill… 7 House Dems already voted to fund ICE — They need to do more than a strongly worded letter.” #AbolishICE

Hit and run at a Nebraska high school protest…

The cruelty is big business

🤷🏼

MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!” So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it (H/T longtimehistory)

Nailed it

Insane corruption

Tonight on the nightly yelling show, mccaughey & Jennings are back at it “coddling” the 2020 Big Lie as @abbydphillip & @jemelehill.bsky.social remind them how obviously full of shit they are. How are we still doing this? (H/T @acynig )

-Leave Minneapolis, stop terrorizing -End arrests without warrants -stay away from schools/churches -hold the shooters accountable -leave citizens alone -take off masks -make detention facilities humane -impeach Noem

Hey everyone the punishment for spitting on & kicking a car is now IMMEDIATE PUBLIC EXECUTION. Please make a note of it.

Trump paid for J6 protestors, he needs to be tried for treason.

"it was quite a display of abuse and anger" Donald Trump tried to have his own Vice President murdered as part of an attempted coup.

Minnesotans, we’ve been through a lot. And I believe this moment calls for grit, resilience, and faith in each other. I believe we must stand up for what’s right. And fix what’s wrong. Today, I’m announcing my candidacy for Governor. youtu.be/SiV3xVkX-kg

SHE IS THE REAL DEAL

first bath ❤️

He had a syringe. A syringe filled with…idk (urine?) The President of the United States has incited this kind of action against a sitting, Black woman member of Congress. Where is the “tone down the rhetoric” brigade?

Ghislaine Maxwell dropped a bombshell claim that four potential "co-conspirators" and "25 men" scored "secret settlements" tied to Epstein's abuse — without facing any indictment. "Who are these men, and why are they still being protected?" www.rawstory.com/ghislaine-ma...

I believe history will show the following: The masks are to conceal the fact that many of these masked ICE “agents” are pardoned Oath Keepers and Proud Boys. I would prefer that “history,” in this case….is pretty damn short.

Ironically, one person who “stayed behind the front lines” while serving overseas was JD Vance.

This has happened in Maine also. The Feds just leave cars on the side of the road or even in the road with nobody in them in the dead of winter.

Unfortunately right now we have to rely on either the Supreme Court or spineless Republicans in Congress to end this shit. This also proves to every country that whatever “deal” you make with Trump is utterly worthless.

I’m trying to understand Republicans’ latest interpretation of the 2nd Amendment. You can now be executed by federal agents if you possess a firearm? Even after you are disarmed? I’m just trying to keep your position straight on this “shall not be infringed” stuff.

ICE is not properly trained on how to do citizen encounters in American towns and cities, and even if they were they would ignore that training. They are Stephen Miller’s lawless army of mercenaries.

Now the cover up begins.
