Join us on Tuesday (along with @eldersclimate.bsky.social) to mobilize climate voters for the upcoming NJ-11 primary! www.environmentalvoter.org/get-involved...

PSA: If ICE bursts down your door, put your dogs or other animals in a cage or a closed room. ICE agents have been trigger-happy before. Let someone know they are there.

ICE OUT IMPEACH Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem Renee Good was not a domestic terrorist she was an American citizen Who was murdered by an ICE AGENT Johnathan Ross We wont stand down until there is Justice For Renee Good #Demcast #ProudBlue ##Demvoice1

It appears billionaire Bill Ackman has donated $10k to a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good. Ackman has reposted the fundraiser but hasn’t posted about his own donation. Reported by Jacqueline Sweet

For those who argue that sure, the Bezos Post editorial page is now complete crap, but the NEWS section is still excellent, presenting...whatever the hell this cowardly, pathetic "both sides" hot garbage is. bluevirginia.us/2026/01/phot...

Separate from the obvious misogyny of the last few days, it’s been striking to watch the right wing media apparatus really confront the role of normie middle-aged women as a leading and increasingly radical force of opposition to trump

Know who profits from ICE's cruelty. https://www.thenation.com/article/activism/ice-businesses-boycott-campaign/

Over 2,000 Iranians have been killed by Tehran’s regime, including children. Thousands have been injured, families are forbidden from burying their loved ones, and more than 10,000 people have been arrested. But I suppose that’s still not enough for Greta Thunberg to say a word.

Help Beth Israel recover after last night's anti-Jewish attack.

"It wasn't murder, and if you say it was murder we will kill you, which again will not be murder."

Chris Murphy: "Let's talk about what's at stake here. The president is spending every single day thinking about invading Greenland, managing the Venezuelan economy, building a ballroom. He's not thinking about the American people at all."

This is America. No one owns this anniversary, no one can tell you what it means. From everything I’ve done and seen, I still think this anniversary can be a transformative moment for how we see and understand history. But that only happens if we’re all in. I’m still working, hope you will too. /12

There are more than 21k history organizations in this country. Many of them are making sure there is substantive, history-focused, complex, thoughtful work happening for 2026. Find them, support them, get involved. I’ve helped develop lots of 250 resources with @aaslh.org, you can start there. /11

Here's what I always remind people: the narrow, celebratory, founders-focused stuff was always going to be part of 2026. But if we collectively shrug, or abandon the commemoration entirely, that’s certainly the ONLY thing we’re going to be left with. /10

Other museums have just undergone extensive renovations for 2026, or are planning major new exhibits. The National Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta, George Washington’s Mount Vernon, Museum of the American Revolution, the National Archives Museum. There’s going to be so much to see. /7

New state museums are opening too, planned for years to coincide with 2026. Montana’s just opened. Utah’s first state history museum will open this summer. Maine’s will re-open in the fall after extensive renovations, and Wisconsin will follow in 2027. New York will follow thereafter. /6

Ohio is giving the state’s 4th graders free access to museums and historic sites. New Jersey is doing “tavern talks” to connect residents with historians and interpreters. Colorado launched a digital passport, a climb of the state’s 14ers, and a film series. /5

Every state has its own 250 commission, and many of them have been preparing for years to produce a thoughtful, inclusive, history-focused commemoration. Collectively, these state commissions have awarded millions in grant funds to help small museums and community organizations participate too. /4

You may have even noticed the U.S. Semiquin. Commission (aka America250—which is separate from the White House efforts) announcing partnerships/programs, or seen their logo on NFL footballs and at the end of Jeep commercials. But this federal planning only scratches the surface of what’s to come /3

You’ve probably seen news about the White House plans for 2026. The UFC fight, the arch, the AI “Founders Museum.” With efforts to distort history at federal museums/historic sites, you might think this anniversary will be shallow and celebratory at best, and a craven political project at worst. /2

Hi, I’m John Marks, I’m a public historian and writer. I’ve been helping history museums prepare for the nation’s 250th anniversary for 9 years now. Despite everything else happening in history, I’m still excited about this anniversary—and you should be too. Here’s why. 🧵 /1

#Iran Officials within the Iranian leadership are seeking safe haven in Europe. “Several personalities from the reformist clan have requested visas. Or at least are attempting, via a Parisian lawyer, to obtain French visas for their families.” Emmanuel Razavi — @jnsorg.bsky.social & @lefigaro.fr

It is impossible to overstate the degree to which the entire national political media's coverage of the 2024 presidential campaign, especially once Harris won the nomination, was deeply, fundamentally, shamefully unserious about the stakes & the candidates.

✊🏼🚨✊🏼 Americans standing up for Americans and calling ICE out for what they are. Posted an hour ago by @thejenniwren.teamlh.social

ICE THUGS arrested a pastor & kept asking him "Are you afraid?" numerous occasions. The pastor said NO. Eventually the THUGS let him go stating that "You're WHITE, you're no fun to us!!" This is how sick & deranged these THUGS are, thanks to this REGIME‼️ youtu.be/lcSOyVrc5HM?...

It’s not lost on me how the far left is absolutely silent about how brave Iranians are rising up against the tyranny of the Ayatollah. I thought they stood for all oppressed people. Oh that’s right, that doesn’t count when the oppressors are hostile towards Israel, right? Hypocrites!

Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers called the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis by a lawless ICE goon a "straight-up murder". He made the comments during a media availability session on Friday, January 9, 2026, following a game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Leo DiCaprio is kinda hilarious in this. #onebattleafteranother

This is what happens when you reward bad behavior with a pardon. This person now believes that his actions were justified and that others will vote for him because he broke into the Capitol and stole a lectern. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks

📽️ NEW: Marc Elias exposes how J.D. Vance is exploiting a tragic ICE killing in Minnesota to smear a victim and justify an alarming crackdown on free speech. Watch him break down why targeting lawful speech is a key step in normalizing authoritarian power👇 https://bit.ly/3LC2xRS

Watch all of it. And notice at the end that Greg Bovino is right there. It's not a rogue patrol, this is the operation as conducted under the direct supervision of senior DHS officials.

No, no…I was told that it’s fine that Graham Platner worked for them because it was after they changed their name.

They rounded up children, gave each a plastic “key to paradise”, and sent them into mine fields to be blown up, and clear a path for troops. Pure evil.

WTF

Ahhhh, now I see why (besides obvious 🙄) DSA also is trying to get rid of this awesome representative

Joe had a cold one night and the media was demanding his resignation, yet they say nothing about this.

I stand with the people of Iran speaking out and risking their lives to demand a better life for themselves and their children. The repressive and dictatorial Iranian regime must end its crackdown on demonstrators. 🧵

🚨🚨🚨 Horrific news. The Trump-Vance administration is one of the most anti-Catholic administrations in American history. This must stop. UPDATE: ICE deported Minnesota church employee, surveilled parish during Mass, mayor says www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/268977/...

It's a great day for protest! ICE out for GOOD!

I'm attending WisDems's event, “Sauk County Drinks with Dems” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

This is satire, right? Think we’ve beaten yall over the head that if you wanted Biden and Harris’ help, you shouldn’t have pushed them out. Period. Now, two of my mutuals follow this clown.

This small man (in all of the ways) needs to feel big so he commits a battery on a woman who is merely taping him with her cellphone.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

The face of Domestic Terrorism.

#FreeIran #RiseIran 💚🦁❤️ Via @talk2trav.bsky.social

ICE tackled a man in a courthouse lot and slammed his face into the pavement. Witnesses say an agent covered his mouth to stop him from answering questions while kneeling on his back. CT State law bars ICE arrests in courthouse areas.

ICE missed the deadline to release a report on the death of Santo Banegas Reyes, who died hours after entering ICE custody in Nassau County. New York’s AG is investigating.

On January 15, join 600+ people who are getting excited to step up for local office at Ready to Run — a national, virtual rally bringing together first-timers from across the country with Governor JB Pritzker and our partners. Come in curious. Leave with momentum. More info/RSVP: stepup.run/ready

Not only did Mamdani, day 1, repeal a ban on protesting in front of synagogues, he *issued a permit* for a mob to stand outside a Jewish day school screaming "say it clear, we support Hamas here" at CHILDREN. Don't tell me it's about Israel. These are NYC Jewish kids he targeted.
