God:

Please take the time to read this superb @jamellebouie.net column. It establishes a baseline of truth for anyone who wants to think, talk, and write honestly about Trump. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/07/o...

HAPPENING NOW: DHS just expedited Liam Conejo Ramos' asylum hearing to this morning, meaning it's possible the five-year-old and his family could be deported as soon as today. Rep. Joaquin Castro: "The Trump administration is trying to take him away again." www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

"The American media makes things that are abnormal seem normal. The European press doesn’t do that. So you’ll see when they report on Trump’s rambling Davos speech, they will say it made no sense. In the US press, you’ll just see excerpts and an attempt to sanitize it." — @anneapplebaum.bsky.social

I think we do have to admit this is the best effort anyone on the right has put forward since he was announced. It's good storytelling, good arrangement here. 7/10

The SAVE Act sounds harmless, but it lets politicians kick eligible Americans off the voter rolls if they can’t dig up passports or birth certificates. Millions of citizens, especially young people & voters of color, could be denied a ballot over paperwork. #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory

Me: Can't walk on ice without falling. Also, me: Wow, she should have arched her back more in that quintuple double flip upside down twist.

Wow! The Georgian skaters were fantastic Absolutely beautiful Every four years i surprise myself with how opinionated i am about figure skating

State Department will delete all pre-Trump X posts www.npr.org/2026/02/07/n... We have always been at war with Eurasia

Friday night news dump: Trump just opened a marine national monument to commercial fishing. Environmentalists worry that fishing in the area could damage sensitive ecosystems and habitats for endangered whales and other species. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/06/c...

OBAMA: “People make excuses for him. They say he’s not serious. Everything a president says is serious!”🔥

Black farmers are getting shut out by the Trump administration. John Boyd, president of the National Black Farmers Association, says the WH told him, they are “moving away from DEI and small farm issues, and they were focusing on large-scale white farms… because they produce the most food.”

TWIN CITIES Armed Citizens Against Tyranny is a HONEYPOT action. No one in the Twin Cities, including the MN Gun Owners association, knows anyone supposedly in this group. Local orgs are STRONGLY urging folks to STAY AWAY from their planned "protest." acatusa.com

I found the dumbest most pathetic post on the internet today:

Job offer!! I’m helping a PBS series look for a social media manager/content creator for an upcoming promotional campaign. The start date is ASAP, and a project timeline that currently goes to July. This is for a series on American Muslim history, so candidates with cultural familiarity preferred!

Surprised? No. Distracted? Also no. We know who Donald Trump is. He has proven himself time and time again. We will not be distracted — especially not from the fact that he is all up and through the Epstein files.

Donald Trump will never know this L❤️VE.

Anyone else watching the opening Olympic ceremony? There’s a real sweetness to it It’s making me sentimental for some reason Like it’s a different age Actually i kept forgetting the Olympics were coming up *gestures to world* but now im genuinely excited about them

i'm not tempting fate, i'm giving it a lap dance

Years ago, a conservative cop came up to me, reminding me kids see what I post. As our president perpetuates racism and hate, I hope that officer, our leaders, and all who know better, share with their kids and families that the president’s rhetoric and his hate are not okay.

DEFIANCE THROUGH COMPASSION! ❤️‍🔥

BREAKING: Trump says he 'didn't make a mistake' with his racist video post. Q:  "A number of Republicans are calling on you to apologize for that post. Is that something you're going to do?" Trump: "No, I didn't make a mistake." He adds later: "I guess it was a take off on the Lion King."

The entire Olympic stadium boos JD Vance. What an international embarrassment!

this is very funny www.foxnews.com/media/jd-van...

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit. Gentle Spades "I'm a veteran"

It wasn’t the birtherism? Blatant racism coming down the escalator? Dismantling DEI programs? Erasing Black History? Demanding innocent Black Men be executed? Lawsuit for racist housing practices? HBCUS? Nope! 🗣️🚨It’s because it was blatant vs implied. These folks are upset he blew their cover🤷🏾‍♀️

Has America become fascist? The answer might surprise you.

“Stand with the stranger.” Please stop making me cry in the club, Mr. Mayor.

welp, this destroyed me first thing upon waking up

he's so close to figuring it out!

With a few exceptions, the items in this list are already the law. Republicans are saying it’s unrealistic for Trump’s goons to follow the law.

Trump is preparing to steal elections.

I’m not sure we’ve properly addressed how profoundly disturbing it is that America can largely shrug at the stashing of human beings in giant warehouses.

'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' presents a 1,400% hilarious supercut of Trump's prescription drug price claims.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

Eight-year-olds, Dude.

I hope lawyers, secretaries of state, and state attorneys general are preparing for what’s coming.

I would love to add these to my school’s book vending machine! It’s the latest one and our kids would love to have access too it! Can you help share? Thanks! @bonhanson.bsky.social @kanekavi.sheshed.rocks @diedrichbader.bsky.social www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

Donald Trump wants to nationalize the midterm election so he can steal it. Get lost. We will never let that happen.

This is precisely what happened to the transcript of the Zelensky call that led to Trump’s first impeachment. They stashed it in a code-word classified system for political reasons.

Ian McKellen performs “The Strangers’ Case” speech from “Sir Thomas More” on Colbert.

This is devastating. I grew up about 10 blocks from the Medgar Evers Home, in Jackson Mississippi.

this part is so true, i mostly travel in women-and-children spaces in far outer SE, so the exact opposite end of town, and since saturday i've overheard and had multiple conversations about how to launder tear gas out of things like diaper bags including one at the methodist church

NEW: Native dancers held a jingle dress healing ceremony at the memorials of Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minneapolis — prayer, culture, and solidarity. This is a movement! Share so everyone is aware!

NEW: The unfathomable Minnesota transcript that must be read, as it tells the reality of America today. "I am not white, as you can see," Julie Le — a government lawyer — told a federal judge on Tuesday. "And my family's at risk as any other people that might get picked up too ..." Law Dork:
