I’m sharing Aliya’s entire opening statement. We owe it to her, and those who no longer have a voice, to watch. youtu.be/zrcW8SZtYpI?...

Today marks one month since Trump attacked a sovereign nation without a declaration of war so he could kidnap its leader and use him as a pawn in a burgeoning scam to overturn the 2020 election results, claim fraud and nullify legit voting for midterms & 2028. Stop him now, USA.

I want to laugh at it but sadly it’s true.

Anyone with a heart and soul should agree that children and babies do not belong behind bars. Thousands of kids will carry a lifetime of trauma and PTSD, done in our name, funded by our tax dollars.

These are the same people who have been running a child sex trafficking and torture snuff film operation for decades. Now, they are kidnapping children off the streets. 🤬 Americans, please do something. 🙏🏽😢 #ReleaseTheTrumpsteinFiles

I wonder how many in Congress grasp just how serious this is.

This is the most high profile donor to the Republican Party and the man financing their attempt to hold Congress this year Paris prosecutors raid France offices of Elon Musk's X www.bbc.com/news/article...

Congress appropriated $257 million to renovate the Kennedy Center before Trump shut it down. Follow that money and see where it goes.

How did they redact abusers but not the victims? And they expect us to believe 40 nude photos went unnoticed? That’s exactly why people think the DOJ did this on purpose, to shame these women for coming forward.

Kudos to Mayor Mamdani. This is what economic justice looks like. And it's a reminder of how we can fight corporate greed at the state and local level. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/01/mamdani-ice-delivery-workers-settlement-backpay-uber-gig-workers-million/

Donald Trump said today that "Republicans should say, we want to take over. We should take over the voting." My life's work is to prevent that from happening. I built a law firm to stop it. I started Democracy Docket as another tool in the fight for democracy. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

The wellness influencer Peter Attia is all over the latest batch of the Jeffrey Epstein files—showing what a certain kind of associate was hoping to gain from Epstein, Tom Bartlett writes:

AOC on ICE: It’s our task to figure out how to claw back what has essentially supercharged this agency into becoming a relentless domestic paramilitary that is also a blank check to Palantir to create facial-recognition scans on U.S. citizens.

Well well well. Looks like they were correct. They just lied about who it was.

@maddow.bsky.social The ICE detention camps will be run by PRIVATE CONTRACTORS. They are motivated to keep as many prisoners as possible and spend as little as possible. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Remarkable: 55% of noncollege whites and even 50% of rural whites say ICE is too aggressive, per new Fox News poll. And 71% of independents disapprove of Trump on immigration. This is digging deep into Trump's base. We detail these numbers on today's pod: newrepublic.com/article/2059...

I usually hesitate to post obituaries but this one, of my literary agent, Georges Borchardt, born in 1928, is so unusual that it deserves to be widely shared. An incredible 20th century life www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/o...

@ruthbenghiat.bsky.social nails it: "I have seen this brand of strongman megalomania and the adverse effects it can ultimately have on leaders and their governments. I call it autocratic backfire. … {gift link} www.nytimes.com/2026/02/01/o...

An explosive complaint filed by a whistleblower against Tulsi Gabbard and another unnamed govt office in May is being stonewalled and still has not been shared with Congress as required despite efforts by the whistleblower’s attorney. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Everything That Trump Touches Dies.

It was probably difficult to foresee that Trump would put the Kennedy Center out of business.

He’s gonna tear down the Kennedy Center.

A reminder that the New England Patriots plane is flown by Omni air who contracts with ICE to fly people in chains to Africa and Asia several times per week. Go Seahawks.

The fact that our current government is crawling all over themselves to protect these files and now knowing Putin is mention makes the "Russia Hoax" just as much of a hoax as these files. Putin is running the United States.

Soooo, tell me how you feel about the Trumps getting richer while the rest of us get poorer.

Thank goodness he didn't do anything really bad… 🤬

Not normal.

In between all the fascism, it's also a MASSIVE crime wave.

Lots of teargas at ICE tonight in Portland. People were just standing and chanting.

It is one thing to seize old ballots; it is quite another to imagine federal agents seizing ballots from county offices on election night or the day after. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/dojs...

As if we didn’t expect this …

Every accusation is a confession.

Liam made people look. Now don’t look away. We still have children in ICE custody eating bad food, drinking questionable water, living in filthy conditions, and carrying a lifetime of trauma they shouldn’t have to survive. #FreeTheChildren

‘I shouted out….who killed the Kennedy Center…’

Good to see that many Dem elected officials now want to be seen getting involved in the cases of immigrants who have been wrongly detained by ICE. Let's spare a word for @vanhollen.senate.gov, who did this for Kilmar Abrego Garcia back when wise pundits said this was politically dangerous.
