The Trump administration is deploying around 2,000 federal agents to Minneapolis as part of an immigration crackdown and on the heels of a welfare fraud scandal in Minnesota, according to two law enforcement officials. https://cnn.it/3NvrajB

three bylines, six months late, almost zero new information we hadn't reported months ago. lowercased our name and mentioned deep in the story. no link to us. said they couldnt find the govt privacy document (we did). good job wall street journal

we've got some ICE shit going down in our little town today and it took like three minutes for a convoy of wine moms to start chasing them around town. normies hate this shit and are putting in the work

🚨 A newly created Polymarket account turned $30K into $400K+ betting on Maduro’s ouster just hours before the U.S. raid — sparking fresh insider-trading suspicions. This underscores exactly why we flagged prediction markets as a regulatory risk in our earlier coverage.

6. Paul Singer, thanks to a well-timed transaction, will be one of the largest beneficiaries. In 2024, Singer donated $5 million to Make America Great Again Inc., Trump’s Super PAC.

1. The military raid on Venezuela and ouster of Maduro will create a financial windfall for a Trump-supporting billionaire, investor Paul Singer. Follow this thread for details. 🧵 popular.info/p/venezuela-...

Propaganda works - this is also why conservative oligarchs are investing so much to purchase trusted media brands and convert them into propaganda outlets

This is what corruption looks like. The Trump Administration fast-tracked nearly $1 billion of taxpayer money to a company run by a major political donor — skipping the usual checks and putting political appointees in charge of the process.

NEW: Welcome to a major election year. It all starts... tomorrow?! That's right! January is a fairly slow month for elections, but we've selected the 8 races you should still have an eye on—with the first Bolts election guide of the year, just out: boltsmag.org/whats-on-the...

Here are some choice quotes from Jack Smith’s testimony about the conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 election. “..the evidence made clear that President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy.”

My mom has informed me that 60 Minutes is "totally different now," and that they don't plan to keep on watching. Wondering how many Boomers across America have come to that conclusion. Hopefully more of them than not

What is Trump so desperate to hide?

Rough vibes on this website today, likely because people feel Hopeless and Helpless Because Can't Stop It and No One Who Is Supposed To Is Trying To So Now We're Fighting Each Other™. I recommend activities such as book, or potentially instrument if you like instrument, or even do talk on phone.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply. I want to make sure this is very clear.

Let me be very clear: tomorrow morning and EVERY DAY THIS WEEK, call your Reps and Senators whether Dem, Republican or Independent. Express your outrage at Trump’s imperial and illegal actions against sovereign nations. TELL THEM to convene. To hold up everything. Hold up $. 202-224-3121

At least a thousand New Yorkers turned out to protest this war with just a few hours notice. People care and you are not alone. Wherever you are, find your organizing home and figure out how to put your own care into action.

In a study following 23 million people age 18-59 (pretty young) for 4 years…despite the fact that the ones who got the COVID vaccine were overall older and sicker at baseline, they not only had 74% lower risk of dying from COVID than the unvaccinated but 25% lower risk of dying from any other cause!

“It’s like modern-day slavery.” Former models for Donald Trump’s agency say they violated immigration rules and worked illegally.

For those keeping track at home, so far in 2026—in just 85 hours—members of the Trump administration have threatened to invade or annex or otherwise attack the following countries: 🇨🇺 Cuba 🇨🇴 Colombia 🇬🇱 Greenland 🇮🇷 Iran 🇨🇦 Canada This derangement puts Kim Jong-un to shame.

The New York Times has just confirmed that 40 civilians died in President Trump's invasion. This is the aftermath in one area

We can and must still demand accountability for the Epstein child sex trafficking coverup.

The casualties already coming in. Grandmothers in their apartments….

Dress warm and come speak up. Alt text is a full read of the text with important descriptions. Maine has high respiratory virus rates currently. I personally recommend wearing respirators (KN95 or N95).

they have proved that they will take action if they feel overwhelming political will in a certain direction—even the most do-nothing democrats and even the worst republicans

Don't forget folks: allowing yourself a vision of the future you'd want for our country and planet - not the one you'd settle for, not the one you fear, but the future of your dreams - isn't naive, it's a vital cognitive skill. That's how we articulate what we most value. What's worth fighting for.

Call your reps. Even if you think it won’t matter. I’m in fucking Texas, and I still bugged the fuck out of them today

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

The protest continues to grow, now spilling further back into Federal Plaza and across the street in front of the city's federal courthouse. Police hanging out nearby but the atmosphere is calm so far.

Happening now: a protest is underway in downtown Chicago against the overnight U.S. attacks on Venezuela, which included the kidnapping of its President Nicolás Maduro. Protestors are filing into the city's Federal Plaza despite the dark and below-freezing temperatures.

Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza. It's 25 degrees outside. Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!" Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."

This is why it's also important for domestic elected officials to condemn it as "illegal" and not just gripe about consultation. This is the stuff upon which international law is built. The prohibition against piracy wasn't some entity declaring it illegal worldwide, it was a custom built over time.

For nonlawyers, it’s worth noting that statements like this have—as a formal matter—important legal effects as a matter of international law. If such statements are *not* made, and in volume, future arguments that Trump’s invasion sets a legal precedent will stand on much firmer legal ground.

Our president can't kidnap a foreign leader and occupy another country for its oil. Venezuela deserves better—and so do we. Join us on Sunday, 1/4 for a "We Say No to Occupation" march. Gather at noon at Oak Hill (Piedmont Park) to march at 12:30. End at the North Avenue MARTA Station.

I’m old enough to remember when there used to be a Congress that knows it’s a separate branch of government with actual responsibilities articulated by the Constitution.

I forgot all about the Epstein files for a whole picosecond there.

Impeach, convict, remove.
