The Pentagon confirmed there was NO sign that Iran was going to attack the U.S. No imminent threat. No authorization from Congress. No reason our service members should be dead. And no exit plan or strategy. This war on Iran is a reckless and deadly mistake by this regime.

It’s happening! Flavor-Flav is hosting

My message remains the same a year later. We don’t have kings in America, and I won’t bend the knee to one.

My take today on Jeff Bezos since I met him at his struggling start up in the 1990s in Seattle: Twice the muscles, half the man.

This ICE observer had her TSA-Pre-check revoked. www.courtlistener.com/docket/72047... "Three days after the interaction, on January 13th, I received an email notice that my Global Entry/TSA-Pre Check privilege for passing through airport security had been revoked."

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Attention🚨: ICE is on BLUESKY‼️ PLEASE report them & block them. BLUESKY PLEASE REMOVE THEM IMMEDIATELY‼️

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

MAGA UFC fighter Sean Strickland says he is not interested in participating in the UFC White House event: "Just to go hang out with the fucking Epstein list? I'm good, dude."

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

This is the most consequential story for the 2026 midterms. Yet, I cannot find it anywhere on legacy media. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

"Release the Epstein Files"

But we are supposed to believe that the administration’s attack on higher education is about fighting anti-semitism. OK wapo.st/3Mbd9a6

A “high-level” Trump admin official told the @newyorker.com that in an interview for her position “her interlocutor opened his mouth to reveal that he had a MAGA tattoo on the underside of his lower lip.” The official said, “It’s over the top, but it’s the currency of the realm.”

Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?

(They’re not cowards, they’re wealthy people protecting their own interests, and years ago they made the very smart calculation that it was better to be perceived as cowards who care than as ruthless career politicians who only truly care about cash and power.)

The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond

You don’t get to name your kid X Æ A-12 and then say “or whatever his name is” about anyone else.

I am fast becoming a single issue voter. And that issue is prosecute every one of these motherfuckers.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

And reminder that what Bannon and others are doing is designed to engineer capitulation in advance. We do not capitulate in advance. We defy. We throw sand in the gears. We protest. We resist in every way we can.

They’d look at my spice rack and immediately deport me.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

I haven't had the capacity to keep up with moderation lists for a bit, but this one is really obvious, so I'm stealing some energy from Future Me: a list for the extremely obvious wave of inauthentic accounts following today's newly-created US gov accounts bsky.app/profile/did:...

Reporting from an independent journalist on Instagram says an ICE agent shot a TikToker and a US Marshal was hit by a ricochet from the ICE agent’s shots

"US Marshal shot during immigration enforcement in LA" * article explains he was shot by an ICE officer whose weapon discharged when he used it to smash a car window

Democracy dies in silence. …when people are too afraid or don’t care enough to speak up. Not today. MILLIONS of Americans and allies of freedom and democracy, here and around the world, are taking to the streets. Showing their love of country and defiance of tyranny. It’s a beautiful sight.

The Trump administration is REALLY allowing Qatar to build an air base in the US after they did a $5.5 billion golf resort deal with Trump and gave him a jet. MAGA can take their ‘America First’ flags and wipe their asses with them. He is Trump First, and you are suckers.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles. You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

"no credible evidence that there is danger of rebellion in the state of Illinois." It's mind boggling than in 2025 a federal judge in Chicago just uttered these words in court case between against the President of the United States. My god.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

… how it only deepened their collective feelings of disrespect for Trump’s so-called “Secretary of War” and his constant “culture-war bullshit.” This official adds that because of Hegseth’s efforts, “I might just start leaking more now.”

Here’s the CBS News report about ICE making bogus 911 calls and filing false police reports in Chicago. ht: @mikenellis.bsky.social

this is the jacket's breast pocket lining pulled up to make it look like a pocket square

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States. America is on the brink of martial law. Do not be silent.

This feels like evidence Trump's aides are deliberately gaslighting him, which is unfortunately very easy to do with dementia sufferers (Trump did it to his father) and which aides are using to seize control of the US military for their own purposes.

Stephen Miller is a psychopath.
