Davey Hearn is a three-time Olympian who spent his life helping others Yesterday he pled not guilty & stood up for the rule of law Hundreds of supporters stood with him outside DC Superior Court Davey is an American hero—& he got the reception of one @cnn.com👇

Article II of the Constitution gives the President the duty ("he shall") to "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed." This is the opposite of that. Even if SCOTUS is right that he can fire agency heads for cause, SCOTUS didn't say he can shut down an agency created by Congress.

Let's see - he can't get the SAVE Act passed, the Supreme Court struck down his effort to ban counting ballots postmarked by but received after election day,...

A lawyer has now spoken separately to the 3 men who were w/ Salgado Araujo in the van when he was killed. All 3 contradict ICE’s account. All 3 say no ICE vehicle was ever in front of them and that agent just got out of the car and started shooting from the side. No ICE agent was wearing a body cam.

Three witnesses were in the van with Lorenzo Salgado Araujo Per their attorney: no ramming, no danger to agents & no reasonable basis to open fire Unreasonable force opens these agents to liability This is becoming another national outrage & it should be👇 -TN

As early as today, the Trump admin could move to terminate TPS for El Salvador after 25 years. Without Congress acting, around 170,000 people who've been living and working legally here since 2001 might be forced to leave. The economic disruption to DC metro area could be huge.

Reporting on sexual assaults being committed by ICE agents:

KEY: all three witnesses are being detained apart, and their story is consistent. They say that there were agents along the side of the vehicle but none in front. When you add the videos showing a lack of evidence of damage to the front despite ICE's ramming claim, ICE's story is falling apart.

Perfect Trump: a meaningless protest that undermines his own party and standing AND doesn't do anything, because under the Constitution, the bill becomes law anyway without him signing it.

Republicans don’t read the Constitution, the exact same way they don’t read the Bible. Most of them don’t even know what’s in these documents.

Landmark housing bill that Trump trashed will become law — unless he vetoes it tonight POTUS has until midnight to veto the bipartisan housing affordability bill that he supported then dismissed as a “big yawn,” or it will take effect automatically Saturday. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith, a Christian Nationalist, says Muslim calls to prayer should be banned because they're "words of death and destruction." He says the Supreme Court backs him up on this... which is another lie. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/indianas-l...

Getting robbed.

Look at how awesome Norm looks in this photo. That’s a true democracy freedom fighter folks:

What is the Election Assistance Commission With No Commissioners? at www.justsecurity.org/146430/elect...

You know you’ve built a horrendous system when the only hope in that system is to overcome the system. This is Republicans.

Can we get an adult version of Mister Rogers to emotionally carry us through this absolutely horrendous time in American history? Republicans are miserable human beings, their idea of America entails the negation of all that is good in America.

In a major attack on elections, President Trump fired all remaining commissioners on a bipartisan federal agency created to help states administer elections. The dismissals leave the agency without leadership months before the midterm elections.

The DOJ’s election monitoring program was established to enforce protections against racial discrimination in voting and address any interference with the right to vote. The Trump administration’s purpose for election monitors appears very different. Here’s how:

Absolute BS; DHS got $29.9 BILLION in July 2025 for enforcement purposes, specifically including funding for information technology used for enforcement, which absolutely could have been used to purchase body cams.

The concise version is posted in the Reddit comments: “Psychology researchers found evidence of partisan behavior in children—they frequently endorsed their own group’s claims even when evidence suggested otherwise, indicating group affiliation influenced their responses.”

They’re called Regressionists because they regress human progress (that is Republicans). Hence, society has to cover ground it already covered just to get back to where it was. So there is no progress, just regress: reintroducing ways that had to be discarded because they harmed people and society.

It’s not hard to see what’s happening: Republicans are trying to build a totalitarian state: a state that is only accountable to itself and can punish all dissent at will, the absolute negation of rights. But many people don’t want to see it, and so they don’t see it.

ICE does not deny that it's pressuring key eyewitnesses to the shooting of Lorenzo Araujo to agree to deportation without a court hearing, and instead offers no responsive comment at all.

Few reporters have done more to shine light on the shadow docket than New York Times investigative journalist Jodi Kantor. Along with her colleague Adam Liptak, Kantor recently published a number of previously undisclosed memos detailing the shadow docket’s expansion under the Roberts court.

This economic contrast doesn’t only exist with Trump’s war on Iran. It exists on so many other levels in the US. The important thing is that it’s a highly effective narrative. I hope Dems keep on driving home these hypocritical spending contrasts. “We can’t afford it,” is an easily refuted lie.

NEW from @gregsargent.bsky.social: it sure sounds like @ICEgov is trying to stop the witnesses to the shooting of Lorenzo Araujo from speaking out. All three of the people in the van have been kept in detention and now ICE is pressuring them all to agree to be deported. /reposted with correct name

Every eligible voter deserves access to the ballot, free from political interference.

Perhaps the greatest thing about Dickens’ novels is the way he created kind characters that transcend human suffering, that rise above miserable conditions and bring comfort. These characters are examples. Dickens has indirectly shown us that we can be that kind of character for others.

One reason you love Trump if you’re a Republican is because he’s so good at playing off the ignorance of uneducated Republican voters. His entire political career is one big cuck of Republican voters. I assure you they laugh their asses off at the stupidity of their voting bloc behind closed doors.

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

“He saw a video of an Mexican man being shot by ICE on Facebook, it was his father” Lorenzo Saldana Araujo son. On discovering his father had been killed by ICE in Houston Texas today. Unnecessary and Horrific family tragedy from the Trump administration! #USDemocracy

FYI: The DOJ sending election monitors during federal elections is not unusual. But targeting Democratic cities escalates fears about the Trump administration’s ongoing efforts to interfere in the midterms. https://bit.ly/4aJwtFb

A federal judge gave a suburban Chicago man more than 3 years in prison for threatening President Donald Trump and others, saying she found it “rich” that prosecutors sought a stiffer sentence after Trump pardoned Jan. 6 rioters. From @chicago.suntimes.com: chicago.suntimes.com/donald-trump...

The most corrupt, the most lacking in compassion and civility, have control of the Federal Government, and the Supreme Court keeps telling them they can do whatever they want. Their goal is to keep on expanding their lawless flex of power to smother democracy.
