For one minute think about what it would be like if they detained you. What would it mean for your family income? What would it mean for your family's health or their future? What would it mean for YOU & YOUR HEALTH being detained in a hellhole deprived of food, water & medication/medical care?

We must be brave & talk with those unaware of what's going on, with friends & strangers, because #ICELawlessness could happen to anyone. Remember: "Every moment is an organizing opportunity, every person a potential activist, every minute a chance to change the world," —Dolores Huerta

I love how the women in Heated Rivalry were the most emotionally intelligent. They also don’t get nearly enough appreciation. Svetlana, Elena and Rose are some of the coolest people ever and I feel like we stopped talking about them way too soon

Final broadcast of ABC News Tonight for 2025. I hope every rep and senator saw it. Millions are being forced to cancel health insurance because it’s unaffordable. That pressure doesn’t stop with them; it spreads. When people drop coverage, everyone’s rates go up. Call your Rep and Senators.

New York City has a new mayor

Happy new year to all my homies:

This is why they want us talking about day care scams.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis diverted more than $35 MILLION in taxpayer dollars to defeat two ballot initiatives last year. I’ve got the @miamiherald.com‘s blockbuster reporting on how DeSantis cheated needy Floridians and children from their already-earmarked funds. youtu.be/EM0uTojxLCM?...

My friend & I discussed the fact that NO ONE is doing enough to stop this! While Democratic lawmakers are holding hearings & have established a place to report these atrocities. It's not enough. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/immigration-... And not one Republican lawmaker has spoken out! Not one!

Yesterday, I ran into a friend from work. She was devastated because her uncle has disappeared & no one can find him. They believe he was detained by #ICE even though he has legal status. This #ICELawlessness is out of control. They're disappearing people. THEY'RE EVEN SHOOTING AT PEOPLE.

That’s a serious escalation, and we've heard nothing about it from our own government.

BREAKING: A Russian newspaper today — “America no longer sees our country as a threat… The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World… he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold that must be destroyed…” Read that again.

Due process is the legal requirement that people be given a fair & adequate legal procedure before being punished, brutalized, or deprived of life, liberty, or property. Either everyone has it, or no one does. Are you OK with giving up your right to due process? Are you OK with #IceLawlessness?

Previous Missouri pre-filed bills have called to legalize everything from brass knuckles to the open carry of long guns for children to murder charges for doctors who provide abortions. A collection of the worst wish lists from the worst legislators. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

TIKTOKER SHOT BY ICE HAS INDICTMENT THROWN OUT Carlitos Ricardo Parias was shot in the elbow by ICE during an immigration arrest in October. A judge tossed the indictment after finding the government violated his constitutional rights, and it looks intentional. 1/2

Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

“People held there have described a litany of inhumane conditions: overcrowded and unsanitary holding cells; not enough food and water; and freezing conditions at night. Legal experts said, in many cases, detainees at Broadview were coerced into signing paperwork before even speaking to a lawyer.”

Weekly protests being held outside ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ detention camp. "Every Sunday afternoon, convoys of protesters from all over Florida, and... from out of state, descend on the notorious... immigration jail... to stand vigil for those held inside." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

By amplifying this post calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist,” the Trump administration just violated the court order that they reference.

This is the most effective propaganda that the GOP has going for them. And it's been so ingrained & brainwashed into Republican voters that nothing anyone says will change their minds. @allenanalysis.bsky.social

Via NPR ~ Hundreds of celebrities have relaunched a committee to defend free speech that was first formed during the post-World War II Red Scare. It’s spearheaded Jane Fonda, whose father, Henry Fonda, stood against the Hollywood blacklists of the McCarthy era.⁠ ⁠

F-wit bombed parts of Nigeria claiming the strikes were meant to protect Christians from ISIS. But local residents in the affected villages say there’s no history of ISIS activity there & report that Christians & Muslims have lived peacefully together. The airstrikes instead caused fear among them.

Remembering the ~230,000 souls in 14 countries who lost their lives in the tsunami triggered by the Sumatra–Andaman earthquake in the Indian Ocean #OTD in 2004. Never forgetting the survivors whose families, homes, communities & countries were devastated by this disaster.🕯️

Among selling points to justify his tariffs, Trump has repeatedly said they would reduce America’s longstanding trade deficit. Well. . .lookit 👇

It has been 395 days of continuous demonstrations in Georgia’s capital, Tbilisi. Our citizens demand the resignation of Georgia's mostly illegitimate and pro-Russian government, the release of political prisoners, and the return to a pro-European course.

The “60 Minutes” we have known is dead. The fearless program that many of us grew up with was strangled by corporate titans seeking favor with the Trump White House. I don’t know what is next for the storied franchise, but it will never be the same. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/60-m...

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

TRUMP’S CLAIM ABOUT NIGERIA COLLAPSES UNDER THE FACTS: From 2020 to 2025, more Muslims were killed in religiously targeted attacks than Christians, and most of the violence wasn’t even religious. These conflicts are driven by ethnic, economic, and criminal forces. 🧵

CBS’ Bari Weiss working to convince us that she’s not beholden to the Fat Orange Ass. We have the weakest media and journalists with just a few exceptions. We need to flood every media channel like the radical right does. #DefendersOfDemocracy #DV1

Heartbreaking

Every ICE agent needs to go to prison

Trump ordered airstrikes on ISIS targets in Nigeria, claiming it was about protecting Christians. But people on the ground say that narrative doesn’t match reality. “In Jabo, we see Christians as our brothers. We don’t have religious conflicts, so we weren’t expecting this.” 1/2
