Hegseth has a long history of not only calling for war with Iran, but for thirsting over destroying cultural heritage sites. He sees the US military as a flaming sword for Jesus…and now he’s in charge of it. www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/fox...

Sam Altman, like many tech oligarchs, has proven that he cares only about making more billions and exerting control over humanity without regard for human rights and civil liberties. They are soulless people who will destroy us if we let them.

The judges in WV have seen enough. They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings — including against state officials who help them carry it out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

New from 404 Media: DHS says critical ICE surveillance footage from abuse case was actually never recorded and doesn't matter. "Due to a technical issue, the Video System failed to record video or audio footage during that period." www.404media.co/dhs-says-cri...

We're supposed to have another week of these temps nationwide. January's electric bills are going to be CRAZY, y'all.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.” The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

We need to get it broadly understood that Stephen Miller's ethnic cleansing will result in a permanent metastasized immigrant carceral state and paramilitary warfare on US streets that goes on *for years.* The internal logic of his agenda dictates this of necessity. newrepublic.com/article/2041...

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Given the recent efforts by the Trump–Vance administration regarding voter rolls, people should make it a habit to check their voter registration regularly, probably once a month, to ensure its accurate and active.

As the daughter of veterans, and a veteran myself, this hurts. Fly high, Alex. Your beautiful spirit lives on.

People need to start organizing and communicating outside of TikTok. If TikTok has been your main platform, the past 48 hours have been rough. You have to diversify your social and communication platforms. You need to have a failsafe.

The man fatally shot by federal agents Saturday morning was a 37-year-old man who’s believed to be an American citizen, a resident of the city and a legal gun owner with a permit to carry, Minneapolis police Chief Brian O’Hara told reporters. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Video games do not cause violence. But we as an industry are clearly not ready to have a conversation about how we've normalized a military fantasy

Pay CLOSE attention to the wording in any DHS statements. DHS will say "armed suspect" DHS will say "approached officers with a gun" These are copaganda phrases to make it SOUND like the victim was holding or brandishing the weapon. He was not.

Words matter. Any media outlet describing ICE’s activities as “immigration enforcement” is circulating propaganda for Trump’s regime.

7 Democrats funded this and leadership still hasn't come out and said abolish ICE. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/ice-making...

Very cool that Congress just renewed ICE's budget with absolutely zero concessions

TikTok's TOS updated last night. RIP TikTok 2017-2026. Another great social media platform ruined.

Hear me out. This is a good example of why you shouldn't have a federal entity hiding their identity and lacking proper adjudication terrorizing communities. Where's the accountability?! www.newsweek.com/ice-agents-p...

If you’ve got a 401(k) or mutual funds, take a minute to check for GEO and CXW. If they’re in there, you’re basically funding private immigration prisons. Switch to socially responsible or ESG funds instead.

The United States will continue to devolve into an unstable country because congress has allowed an unchecked federal entity to morph into an organization that harasses, intimidates, terrorizes, unlawfully detains, and murders its own citizens. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

What’s striking is that every move the Trump regime makes against Senator Mark Kelly only seems to elevate his visibility — and maybe even his popularity. Keep it up, y’all.
