“1.776 Billion” is a nice touch — Trolling us with fake patriotism as he steals our money and gives it to people who attacked the Capitol to end democracy for him How much will Rep. Andy Ogles get? @MarshaBlackburn?

They really thought they were cooking with this one.

Call it what it is.

Monkey wrenching is such an under appreciated form of protest

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

Houston police shouldn’t be babysitting for ICE. It’s not their job, it erodes community trust, and it diverts resources away from the needs of the people our city is supposed to serve.

NEWS: Americans were told to evacuate the Middle East — but the State Dept is not helping them do it. We called the State hotline. First thing you hear is an automated message: "Do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation."

@gailsimone.bsky.social Just a suggestion, if you wanted to contact your senator with it...

To understand how horrible Pamela Jo Bondi is, remember she only has her current job as US Attorney General because she took a bribe from Donald Trump when she was Florida's Attorney General to drop an investigation into the obvious consumer fraud perpetrated by his scam called "Trump University."

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more agents than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries. Not one more penny for ICE.

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

It is getting harder to see it these days, but I always hold on to this quote from Samwise in LOTR: "There's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for."

“When an individual enters their residence, conceals themselves behind a closed door, and attempts to go about their everyday life, they are willfully impeding the important work of law enforcement officers and engaging in domestic terrorism,” said DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Thinking about all the amazing people doing the work up in the North Star state today 💙

I mean, technically everything is optional if you don’t want to participate in modern society. But I see a lot of 18 year olds (at least the ones who survive) having to quickly do all their shots so they can get into college or get certain jobs.

'Why aren't they in the streets' is answered almost every day in my small town by people in the streets! Rather than asking 'why aren't they in the streets' it's worth asking 'why isn't your media showing them in the streets' and 'who is served by downplaying resistane in its myriad forms.'

Brooklyn Park (MN) PD: "[one officer] was stopped as she passed ICE going down the roadway. When they boxed her in, they demanded her paperwork, of which - she's a US citizen... Many of the chiefs standing behind me have similar incidents with their off-duty officers."

*taps the sign* people who argue with you about terminology actually aren't interested in solving the root problem.

If only there was a senator that could do something? Alas, we’ll never get the answer to that question.

Dropkick Murphys are releasing a new song called "Citizen I.C.E." The lyrics go: "Too scared to join the military/ Too dumb to be a cop." consequence.net/2026/01/drop...

“But what do you expect Democrats to doo-hooo?” 1) Refuse to fund this criminal government anymore. 2) EVERY one of them call to abolish ICE (and bonus, DHS). No more “they need training” shit. Promise prosecutions. 3) EVERY one of them call for Trump’s impeachment, relentlessly, EVERY day.

Hey @backerkit.com . How do I report a user sending out scam emails claiming to be from Social Security? Couldn’t find anything on the website to report it directly. The email even has your website link at the bottom.

I could have sworn I was born here. Should I turn myself in now, or wait for a 3am window smashing?

VOTE VETS: “OUTRAGEOUS… It is abundantly clear Republicans and Trump want to strangle the VA til it all gets privatized” Trump plans to eliminate 35,000 healthcare jobs at the chronically understaffed VA that already lost tens of thousands of employees. www.commondreams.org/news/trump-c...

The complete inversion of morals on the right is not surprising but it's still shocking. Imagine being on the side of intentionally starving children.

US citizens across the country have been caught up in immigration raids, arrested, and detained. How do they get justice when their constitutional rights have been violated? 🧵

Leo is an American citizen. If being American means anything, it’s that he should be free to work without worrying that the government will raid the property without a warrant and arrest him for doing nothing wrong. Watch Leo's video here:

Even when Leo presents his Alabama-issued REAL ID, officers reject it as fake. Today, to stop the violations of his and other construction workers’ Fourth Amendment rights, Leo filed a federal class-action lawsuit with the Institute for Justice. ij.org/case/alabama...

🚨 New Case Alert 🚨 Leo Garcia Venegas is an American citizen and construction worker in south Alabama. Even though he has done nothing suspicious and is working on private property, Leo has been repeatedly detained (once violently) by federal officers enforcing immigration laws. 🧵

The government won't tell you that they are fascists, but they will tell you that anti-fascists are their enemies.

TB is the world's DEADLIEST infectious disease, claiming 1.25M+ LIVES every year despite being preventable AND curable 🤯 #cdnpoli Your government needs to hear from YOU! Email your MP today calling on Canada to #LeadOnTB ‼️ Need help getting started? We got you 👇 resultscanada.ca/action-butto...

Dear Democratic Leaders, If you won’t stand up for trans people and their rights, you’re tellling me you won’t stand up for *anyone* or *any rights* the second they come under attack. You’re telling me you don’t stand for anything at all. Also, they’re *people*. Grow a spine or get out the way.

Lowering recruiting standards so MAGA folks can finally qualify is a fascist version of DEI. It's DEI without DEI's positive objectives or historical rationale.

From now on, every time I hear someone tell me they only use AI to "come up with ideas", I'm going to give them a slightly pitying look and say "Aw, are your own ideas that bad?"

Steam and itch.io have removed thousands of video games in recent weeks deemed to be "adult content" in order to comply with strict rules from payment processors like Mastercard. These policies censor artists engaged in lawful speech. Mastercard shouldn't be the gatekeepers of our digital freedom.

2010…

It’s been less than a month since deadly floods swept through central Texas. Naturally, Texas state Republicans are laser-focused on…carrying out Trump’s demand to gerrymander the state’s congressional map so he won't lose the House next year. Priorities.

Immediately.
