Indubitably! 🧐

I bet if you just did a simple survey, not one American in 10K would be able to accurately tell you the current level of immigration to the US, whether that level is up or down from the previous decade, what countries are most represented among immigrants, or what current US immigration policy is.

You should follow the amazing @anntelnaes.bsky.social.

Thank goodness we still have representatives like Sean Casten in Congress, working on our behalf.

The new “Forced Sale to Mango’s Oligarch Buddies” version of TkTck” has also apparently changed its privacy disclaimer…seems to say they can scoop up your private info such as immigration status and use that info how they will. May want to not automatically sign off on this notice.

Well, @fulmerford.com and Frank Wilhoit are spot-on. It immediately brought to mind Frank Wilhoit's law: "Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

The illegitimate gun gestapo is now targeting the helpers, the real patriots, those standing up and in harm’s way for all of us.

NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

JWV gives us the context we need, though I doubt any ICE hires would refrain from breaking down one’s door, even were it explained to them.

“Trump is as dangerous as we fear and as powerful as we allow him to be.” -Jon Lovett

A five year old taken from school, used as bait, then shipped out of state to a facility they refuse to let any congressperson inspect. And 🧊 wants additional funding for these “services”?! Call your congress member daily! 202-224-3121.

Oh my god, @npr.org should have just let the live feed from Davos run, instead of switching to regular programming, so everyone could actually hear the crazy talk being spewed by the demented (dementia’d) fool. Lies and, possibly, spilling military secrets as well? WTH?! Time for the 25th is overdue

4 months ago…feels more like an epoch…an era…an age. SO much tap-dancing (not to mention drums of war), to avoid releasing complete, unredacted Epstein files. Sure seems like evidence of a guilty mind.

Thomas Paine was incredibly prescient.

It’s ALWAYS projection. He tells us what he is and always has been planning, because he knows that, in fair elections, he won’t prevail. The goal ever since 2020 has been to tip the scales enough to counterbalance the antipathy to his policies at the voting booth.

Sure, that’s some “day of love” happening, right there.

How will the cover of any of these news outlets read today? Only the felon’s Venezuela distraction, or mention of the historical record of his previous misdeeds?

You mean “sort of reports,” don’t you? Pretty sure we no longer trust that your news is the actual news, not “news” first through a filtering Weiss sieve (cough * CECOT* cough).

And the corollary: the excuse it used was that Maduro was trafficking drugs to the U.S., while it just recently pardoned the former president of Honduras, convicted of…trafficking drugs to the U.S. Also: what is this “captured” stuff; Maduro was kidnapped.

Well, If 60 Minutes is capitulating to Bad Bari, perhaaps we should all spend our Sunday evening news time rewatching a different CECOT film. ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lku5h9xjrqc

DJT seems surprised that he won’t be seeing Bolsonaro wandering the halls of the White House anytime soon. “Quiet, quiet Piggy,” you’re saying the unspoken part out loud. youtu.be/mBrVf1eh64w

Lest we forget. There have been other, less orange, but equally irredeemable faces of evil.

Such a thoughtful assessment.

Katie Mack sure hits the nail on the head re: current sit rep, seasoned strategist or no.

Marshmallow read that it’s World Cat Day.

What’s a drug typically used to treat Alzheimer’s? Donabemab. How is that drug administered? Intravenous infusions, requiring multiple trips to an infusion center. And what test might be used to measure the shrinkage of the hippocampus, crucial for memory and thinking? Oh, say, an MRI?

So…do we think his demolition of the East Wing was just a fit of pique that seven million of us dared to show up for No Kings?

The White House is decorated at Christmas by a veritable army of volunteers, who must apply for the opportunity. Methinks there will be an even greater outpouring of volunteers who’ll be happy to help take down the monstrous “donor extravaganza (ball)room rising out of this destruction.

“Over the past week….” We’re barely over 100 days in, and this list boggles the mind (and motivates 7 million people into the streets), while the full list of appalling actions I’m sure Kruse could elucidate quite clearly outlines the agenda of our authoritarian wannabe, who plans no farewell.

Same.

Yet another approval process the would-be king flouts, while simultaneously lying about the process (“it won’t touch the East Wing…”).

NYT top story choice of Santos commutation over 7 million people in the streets just confirms what we all knew: birdcage liner!

I think tariffs hurt consumers, police shouldn't wear masks, and the President must obey the law - and shouldn't use his office to run personal profit-making schemes on the side. This apparently makes me a radical Marxist.

Huh…it’s almost as if the citizenship question was just a pretense.

These days, it seems as if the very worst among us are seeking to crush those among us who would pursue hope and progress, and now we have lost one of our very best. Let’s hope her words inspire us to do the best we can, and support others making space for the sources of light in this world.

Pretty calm and peaceful in war-torn Portland today. Except for the sounds of some unusual aircraft. Have they arrived?

Trump may think he’s some sort of real estate whiz kid, but one suspects it’s Pres. Obama and the White House Correspondent’s Dinner that’s still occupying a large part of Trump’s “brain” square footage, rent free.

“Back in the USSR…”

Nick’s grandfather lived through some things! Clearly, he handed down some apropos life lessons to his grandson.

I don’t watch Fox so I’m not familiar with the life and times of one Brian Kilmeade, but did he seriously just suggest that unhoused people shall be given the choice between rehab, prison, or lethal injection?!

And I bet each of us know at least one of those 1.2 million…don’t let the regime take us back there.

Hmmm, why could he possibly want a war? Oh yeah, might it be something related to his convo with Zelensky to the effect that elections might have to be canceled in the event of war?! Desperate be the dictator wannabe.

Nothing says, “I’m guilty” like ordering a military flyover in an attempt to drown out one’s accusers.

Oh nothing to see here, just RFK, Jr. rewarding for-profit insurers (cough -United Healthcare-cough) for alleged bad behavior. www.youtube.com/shorts/GihMD...

“…extreme contempt for facts as such…” Seems pretty spot on.

Precisely why the spectacle of billionaires with a little “escape from earth” space hobby is so repellent.

August 11, 2025 vs January 6, 2021 Guess which day Trump called out the National Guard, guess which day he didn’t...
