SCOOP: The Jan. 6 pipe bomb suspect told the FBI he believed in 2020 election conspiracy theories. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Congress used to have the power of the purse and the power to declare war.

I really can't emphasize enough that if you care about local politics, all you gotta do is show up. Just a regular schmegular person showing up. Literally just show up consistently in person and within a remarkably short amount of time, you will have a shocking amount of influence.

Fuck Gavin Newsom

A wealth tax is a big tent policy unless the only people you care about are billionaires.

Multiple churches are using their Christmas nativity scenes to protest ICE. This one in Massachusetts placed an ICE was here sign above an empty space where the baby Jesus would’ve been laid. /

This one in Illinois went all out.

Since when do we just kill people suspected of running drugs? Is this the new normal? Are we just going to let this be normalized?

I keep seeing video after video of ICE agents assaulting or attempting to assault young women in New Orleans.

Has any proof been presented that the Venezuelan boats that were bombed were transporting illegal drugs? Let’s see the receipts.

So the Supremacist Court allowed Republican gerrymandering based on racism. Why am I not surprised.

The US military carried out a strike on a suspected drug boat in the Eastern Pacific, killing four people on board, according to a social media post from US Southern Command. https://cnn.it/4av0Z63

And democrats are still pushing this barbarism

According to ADP the U.S. economy lost 32,000 jobs last month

If all these Somali Americans did white collar crimes and fraud that means they can run for office as a Republican or simply have Trump pardon them. That's what he's been doing the past week by the way. They should also do violent insurrections with a MAGA hat and the GOP would love them.

This really lays bare how absurd the manufactured war theory is: A shipwrecked survivor of a Hellfire missile strike on his small burning vessel is supposed to do... what, exactly, to show he is not "in the fight"? When there is no war, applying the law of war is an exercise in absurdity. 1/2

Disgusting, racist, and a reflection of the rot that got him elected and is sustaining his presidency. 🤮🔥

Trump - “It's a con job. I think affordability is the greatest con job." Also Trump -

My message to Trump: Your message of bigotry won’t work. Somali Americans are here to stay. 💅🏾

the rich want us all to actually just live in complete hell

The reason why Trump feels so comfortable saying these racist things is because there’s a whole lot of Americans who think like this. He speaks for millions and millions of racist Americans and too many would rather not deal with this reality. This is why racism still persists today.

A new video captures masked ICE agents in unmarked vehicles swarming the mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew before hauling her away. There’s no way this was random.

Trump calls human beings “vermin,” “garbage,” “diseases,” “poison,” and “animals.” Then, when I rightfully point out that the same dehumanizing language has been used by fascist regimes to justify humanity’s worst atrocities—Republicans lose their minds. Give me a break.

"Fractures have emerged in the Maga coalition," writes Guardian columnist Moira Donegan. "Republicans are beginning to imagine what the country – and more importantly, their own careers – will look like without him."

This timing makes a lot more sense now, doesn’t it? Adm. Alvin Holsey resigned in October as commander of U.S. Southern Command right after flagging concerns about those U.S. military strikes on “suspected” drug boats in the Caribbean. He served for 37 years.

Not sure why this shocks me given what we know about MAGAts. But I guess that mom in me would expect that any parent would value their child’s life over the 🍊💩

No matter what happens - another reminder every vote counts

This is coming down to the wire

Israeli forces killed two Palestinian teenagers in separate incidents Monday as they carried out raids across the occupied West Bank.

I spent two years in the Trump administration. During that time, I saw how the president handled national security decisions. One of my biggest takeaways was this: He fantasized regularly about maiming & killing unarmed civilians. Actually.

Vermont independent Senator Bernie Sanders spoke at the Starbucks workers' picket Monday to demand the coffee giant reach a fair contract with its unionized workforce after years of delay tactics.

How long until the Admiral blames a Commander who blames a Lieutenant who blames Petty Officer?

The secretary of defense throwing a top military official under the bus to protect himself. A beacon of integrity.

Probably not the smartest policy considering we live in a world and depend on other countries for trade, information, labor and security. But what do I know? I'm a Muslim whose family came from a "third world country." Good luck, white supremacists.

Donald, on his way—again—to the golf course to bring down prices at the grocery store for us. What a selfless hero.

There’s a lot to unpack here… Bombing vessels in the Caribbean without congressional authorization is already an unconstitutional use of military force. Hegseth’s double tap on survivors looks like a war crime, and both Armed Services Committees want him in the chair to answer for it. 1/2

I didn’t vote for war against Venezuela. How about you? 😡

Venezuela doesn’t make fentanyl Venezuela doesn’t make cocaine Venezuela has oil

Agree or disagree?

Exhibit A at the War Crimes Tribunal questioning defendant Pete Hegseth.

A report reveals the DOJ—after frantically realizing the files would be released—has been paying FBI agents nearly $1M in overtime to work on the “Epstein Transparency Project." Ostensibly aimed at protecting victims' privacy, the project could also prevent exposing Trump. trib.al/su4zh6N

Inflation made 100k a year for a family go from upper middle class to struggling. With most of this inflation happening since the turn of the century.

Ice is gassing neighbors in St. Paul this morning g during a paramilitary fascist raid on the city.

Apparently republicans said no to Trump’s plan
