ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

Woke and saw a News notification on my phone, and thought, “FINALLY, some fun news, instead of more hate and dread to start my day.” And then I saw everyone’s favorite Bluesky Dino expert wrote it 🥰 @restingdinoface.bsky.social

Vladimir Putin is an existential threat to human freedom. That's the post.

www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol... Federal judge in New York on Tuesday granted a Justice Department request to release grand jury material related to Ghislaine Maxwell's case. Judge to put in place a mechanism to protect victims.

Another powerful morning on the picket line with my family, this time at our daughter’s former school, Fairmont Elementary. West Contra Costa County teachers are incredibly important to our family and our community. They deserve a fair contract!

Waste. Fraud. Abuse.

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

Trump rants all night on social media about tariffs and other things. Trying to influence his Corruption Court by telling them more lies about tariffs being national security.

New York judge orders release of Ghislaine Maxwell-related grand jury records. The ruling comes days after a federal judge in Florida also ordered the release of grand jury investigations into Jeffrey Epstein from 2005 and 2007. share.google/y3UzYpCPaNoA...

Snakes aren't the only reptiles that can't blink. Some lizards also have a clear scale over their eyes (called a spectacle) and many geckos have nothing covering their eye at all (shocker, the geico gecko inaccurate). 📷Brendan Schembri, Andy Goldby

Same headline. Seven years apart. 🤡 @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

♥️ “ICE looked at that school, saw a community standing up for families, and decided it wasn’t worth it.”

ICE use of Border Control agents is disgusting. Most of these agents are criminals with a badge, running free rein on innocent people. Just like the prison guards ICE has hired. They are thugs and losers.

The MiG-29MU1 crew struck an enemy assault group in the eastern sector using AASM-250 HAMMER bombs.

❗️During the night, the 🇺🇦Ukrainian military shot down 131/149 🇷🇺Russian UAVs, about 90 of them were - "Shahed"

He is worse than Putin. Bout broke their nations promises to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty In exchange for their nukes.

The gig, as they say, is up.

They’re not hiding the brutality anymore. They want you to see it. They want you to get used to it.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

The GOP enacted civil service reform. The GOP will destroy civil service reform. The GOP is NOT the same party that it was. Keep this in mind when they claim Lincoln as their own

ICE has arrested nearly 75,000 people with no criminal records, data shows

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.) Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

🇺🇦🤔 There's one question I—and all Ukrainians—want an answer to: if Russia starts a war again, what will our partners do? — Zelensky

Agree 💯 With Our European 🇪🇺 Allies......

🔥👀 Kashira, Moscow region, the city council (administration) is burning.

“It confirms what we already knew — this was not about public safety, it’s about stoking chaos and fear and terrorizing communities,” said state Sen. Royce Duplessis.

It is becoming increasingly obvious that the oligarchs, backed by the scum in the Kremlin and the White House, want to carve up Europe between the USA and Russia.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that partnering with an unpredictable American regime weakens Europe. The only way to save itself is to disconnect from toxic Trumpistan, just as it did with Putin.

The Moon and Jupiter last night ... (in Fremantle WA)

I turned off the news for 1 day to give myself a break, and came back to this. wtf is going on now?

🎯 @monacharen.bsky.social on Bannon’s cozy relationship with Epstein: “Where is TP USA, the White House, Speaker Johnson? MAGA faithful who claim to believe in a conspiracy among elites to abuse kids? Where’s Bannon’s acknowledgment of wrongdoing? his shame?” www.thebulwark.com/p/steve-bann...

I've been receiving so many messages from people here having their own "MELIA" in their home. Many looking like her too. I can't thank you enough for sharing your story. Many think she's a forgotten soul. I know there's someone out there for her ❤️ 516.785.5220 [email protected]

We have a lot in common with the United States right now. We also don’t have a GDP, employment or inflation report to share. Our GDP gross domestic poop (guano) is usually tracked, but our Government shut down for Macaroni Breeding season..a real freak off (bottles of sperm whale oil everywhere)

Even commenters on Fox News are losing their minds over this, which is surprising. If congressional Dems aren’t a total mess, they need to ask about this in between Epstein coverage and not let it go.

Well, another year where our Island soccer team did not get chosen to play in FIFA. On the bright side, we didn’t have to attend or flap our wings for the participation trophies given out. Time to prepare for Eurovision selection.
