Republicans Losing The Senate Too Trump warned he would be Impeached if they lose the House. A Democratic takeover of the Senate would be a political shock, neuter his last two years, and could lead to Removal after Impeachment. Private GOP polls show it's possible. www.axios.com/2026/02/06/g...

🚨Michigan AG Dana Nessel launched a form to report Federal Immigration actions across the state! Please share broadly - it is for victims, witnesses, and those experiencing an emergency. Remember to capture as many details as you can. Form link is in the quoted post! TY @dananessel.bsky.social!

Mark your calendars for Feb. 22nd and plan to attend this local "Know Your Rights" session by KATO (Keweenaw Against the Oligarchy). Learn how to respond if confronted by ICE.

The New START treaty expires today, 2/5/26. For the first time in 50+ years, the US & Russia face zero binding limits on their nuclear arsenals. Risks: an unconstrained arms race, zero transparency, & heightened global instability. CONGRESS MUST ACT! 202-224-3121 & text POOWLA to 50409.

Serious recommendations for meaningful reforms of ICE and CBP by someone who knows what he's talking about.

Karl Rove - yes Karl Rove the longtime GOP operative - torches Trump. He's failing the working class -  "Last year we lost 70,000 manufacturing jobs. We lost 145,000 blue collar jobs...Blue-collar consumer confidence is at a record low since 1976 when they began asking the question about this."

Congressman Ted Lieu demands AG Todd Blanche be fired over his comments about it not being a crime if a person partied with #Epstein Gotta say, this is basic Criminal Justice folks. Blanche is just another lawyer willing to risk it all for Trump.

Tell your Congress member to fund healthcare not ICE! #FundHealthcareOverICE

Chris Murphy names the harm plainly: ICE is inflicting trauma and violence—Minneapolis to Texas, block by block. Families terrorized. Communities destabilized. This happens by design and by funding. Congress can stop feeding it today. #FundHealthcareOverICE

Marimar Martinez, shot 5 times by Border Patrol in Chicago, speaks out after Renee Good, Alex Pretti deaths 'I am their voice' NEW w/ @adrianacardmag.bsky.social: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Just Beautiful. 🥹🥹 #saytheirnames #pinks

Today starts the 100th celebration of Black History Month. We honor the countless Black leaders who have shaped our nation’s history, and reaffirm our commitment to advancing opportunity, justice, and fairness for all Americans.

Thousands across the US marched. Thank you to all those who joined them in whatever fashion worked for you, whether by marching, by participating in the general strike, by calling MOC's, by posting online, by writing postcards, etc! We the People persist and resist! substack.com/@thelastmile...

A five-year-old in a winter coat, asleep in his father’s arms on a flight home. Liam Conejo Ramos should never have been taken. Relief does not erase fear. Family separation leaves scars long after release. Children deserve safety. Parents deserve dignity. VC

MI Dems have a great weekly podcast!

"ICE must be aggressively reined in, defunded, or overhauled" it even abolished. See where MI US Senate candidates stand.

What a visual to the world…

Thank our Senators but also keep up the pressure on our Senators! This is the beginning not the end of what must be done with ICE, CBP, AND DHS.

"for the love of God and the love of human beings, which can't be separated..."

BREAKING: We’re suing the Trump-Vance admin for detaining people in Minnesota and deliberately blocking access to legal counsel. These actions violate the Constitution, federal law, and above all else – basic human rights. We will get justice in court.

Yesterday Sen. Chris Murphy identified 5  ICE restrictions Dems are "coalescing around". CALL YOUR SENATORS TODAY.  TELL THEM YOU SUPPORT THESE! (I would add NO MASKS too). Contact info for Senator Peters & Slotkin are in the first comment.

Tell @peters.senate.gov AGAIN to vote NO on further ICE funding. As Michigan Jill says - It is more important to stop this lawlessness than it is to avert a shutdown.

Today we honor the legacy of Dr. King and the struggle for civil rights in America.  So many of his quotes still ring true. Here's another one to think about this election year: “We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity, but in love with humanity”.

On January 14, 1784 the the Continental Congress ratified the Treaty of Paris, establishing the United States as an independent nation. The ratification of the Treaty of Paris in January 1784 officially ended the American Revolutionary War. Since that day, America has no kings.

I invite all Americans to join Minnesota in a day of unity tomorrow.

ICE's brutal crime against a US citizen is shocking. And the unconstitutional / illegal act, followed by trying to "spin" the murder of US citizen, is unconscionable. Use 5calls (https://f.mtr.cool/xkrmmvgbca) today to let your Senators and Rep know that you demand justice for Renee Nicole Good.

Five years ago today.

America First? Or oil companies first?   "What's good for business is good for the United States". Veteran diplomat Richard Haass on Venezuela, Maduro's capture, and the future of US foreign policy. This clip is part of Katie Couric's in-depth conversation with Richard on her Substack channel.

With a challenging year behind us, a new year brings renewed hope and a renewed sense of purpose. Happy New Year and cheers to the promise that together we can win a brighter future for all of us!

Whether you’re celebrating at home or traveling, we want to wish you and yours the happiest holiday season! As President Biden said last year in his amazing Christmas video (https://bit.ly/490aZSx), “we wish you and your family peace, joy and happiness. Merry Christmas. Happy Holidays.”

Some don’t have a home to go to this holiday. That’s why the Houghton County Dems have joined with other local groups to fight homelessness. Together we are helping the Hancock Salvation Army’s “Housing Assistance” fund. Donate thru the QR code in the last photo. Thank you!

Since FDR in 1941 American Presidents have proclaimed December 15th as Bill of Rights Day. The day commemorates Dec. 15, 1791 ,when Virginia ratified the first 10 amendments to the Constitution, now know as the Bill of Rights.

As the sun sets today the Festival of Lights - Hanukkah - begins. The Houghton County Dems wish a happy Hanukkah to all. Let the light shine! #HanukkahSameach

Happening tomorrow at 3 PM at the Lift Bridge - The Global Rally to Stop the Human Safari in Kherson.  Please show up to rally and show your support for Ukraine. https://f.mtr.cool/wfdwkqxvri

Indiana legislators listened to the people, not the pressure from the corrupt administration in Washington!

Do you live in Houghton County District 2? (that's Franklin, Osceola, Schoolcraft and Torch Lake Townships.) Are you angry about what Commissioner Keranen is doing? Would you like to be part of a Board that works FOR our county? Our Candidate Recruiting Committee would love to talk to you.

Affordability is a scam?! Please. Prices aren’t magically dropping — that’s not how inflation works, and Trump knows it. Real affordability means higher wages so families can survive higher prices. That’s the part Trump refuses to say out loud. #TrumpInflationCrisis

Thank you @captmarkkelly.bsky.social for speaking up!

The public is invited to the Pearl Harbor Remembrance Ceremony honoring the over 2,400 Americans who died December 7, 1941. Their heroism helped shaped the world we know today. Honor their legacy always. Live stream at 12:30 PM EST.

DID YOU KNOW that the county is looking for YOUR input on plans for the county jail? Two committees are working on the issue. BOTH are meeting early next week and are looking for YOUR PARTICIPATION. Get involved! Make your voice heard! You can help find solutions to the ongoing issues with our jail.

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett on Pete Hegseth.

More pics from @chrismapps at last night's holiday potluck and HCDP meeting. A fun and informative evening!

Great to hear from MI State Senate candidate Chris Mapps - @chrismapps.bsky.social - at our December potluck and meeting tonight. Thanks for joining us Chris!

A wise man once said that a thankful heart is the parent of all virtues. This Thanksgiving let's give thanks for all we have been blessed with, as we share our bounty with kindness and compassion for those less fortunate this holiday season. #HappyThanksgiving #GiveThanks #ShareKindness

Tomorrow evening Women's March presents Uncomfortable Conversations -  a special training session on how (and why) to talk with MAGA family. Sign Up Here: https://f.mtr.cool/izxcppirbn

Thanksgiving shouldn’t require math homework, but Trump’s price surge means families are counting pennies, chasing sales, and putting food back on the shelf. Every aisle’s a reminder that he has broken his promises and your budget. #TrumpCrushesYourDreams

ICE & CBP are now in Charlotte, NC. That city is 170 miles from the nearest coastline, far outside the 100 mile zone federally recognized for CBP activity. So what are they doing there? #TrumpIllegal https://www.newsweek.com/border-patrol-sweeping-arrests-charlotte-nc-under-scrutiny-11074030
