I've been voting for nearly forty years and I never once voted for a candidate that fully encompassed my values. I pulled the lever for Obama when he was hemming and hawing about gay marriage. You know what I got out of that? Gay marriage.

Well, it was either world war three or letting black people have jobs, so I see why people just went with the world war

Casual reminder that if you think a big problem with the Democratic party is old people running for office you're a stupid person

Slept in to get some much-needed rest and this is what I wake up to. Every single time. And fuck the pod bros and general manosphere expressing shock about Trump bombing Iran. Every single time. Republicans represent nothing but greed and destruction.

Down goes another so-called mainstream news source. CNN will now be run by wing nuts. I can't wait for the Fox and Friends crossover with Jake Tapper!

Sometimes you gotta lock in even when you don't want to, so I'm watching. #stateoftheunion

So much going on that I haven't had time to get into the men's Olympic team's disappointing behavior. Just a terrible start to this week.

I've read statements from BAFTA (the new one), John Davidson, and the CEO of his foundation. All of them center on his feelings, with Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo as an afterthought. The continued tone-deafness to the actual victims is not surprising. Fine way to close out Black History Month.

On this day in 2020, two white men killed Ahmaud Arbery, a young unarmed Black man out jogging. Local officials lied and did not hold the men accountable for months, until a video was released.

From Hannah Beachler, production design Oscar nominee for Sinners.

On a separate but related note, just apologize to Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo. A real one, not some "I'm sorry if you were offended" BS. It doesn't matter if the intent wasnt malicious, the moment still caused real pain. Not being willing to take ownership of that is what's driving the anger.

I'm a logical person. The Democrats are the flawed party that does a lot more to advance things that matter to me. It gets hard at times like this, when the racism bubbling beneath the surface of those supposedly on my side, who resent the strength of Black voters, starts seeping out. 1/

Lotus toner and water cream, paired with a PDRN serum, have been a game-changer for my morning routine. I sometimes switch out the water cream with confidence in a gel cream from IT Cosmetics. #beautysky #blackskin

I feel horrible for Ilia Malinin. Congrats to MISHA SHAIDOROV and the country of Kazakhstan.

Damn it, not James Van Der Beek.

After rewatching Amber Glenn's freeskate from earlier, she definitely seemed rather slow, but I still think she was shorted a little on her technical elements. I hope she's more relaxed for the women's individual competition. #olympics

Turnover was bound to happen. This TNF mess is what we'll be left with until September. #SuperbowlLX

Still recovering from that Dunkins commercial. #SuperbowlLX

The Patriots are overmatched. I feel like Seattle is about to steamroll them. #SuperbowlLX

Ghouls. Every one of them. people.com/toddler-hosp...

The Crespo-Gonzalez family is home. Our community refused to stay silent in the face of such an immoral, unethical detention. Now, we must continue speaking up for the countless other families and children imprisoned by Trump. Stay loud.

Ugh, I hate to see why Lil Jon was trending. So sad for the family.

BREAKING: The federal government has filed a motion seeking to end asylum claims for the family of Liam Conejo Ramos, according to the lawyer representing the family.

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.

I understand the sentiment about not reposting the images Trump shared, but I disagree. I want this shit documented to infinity when someone comes reads social media archives fifty years from now. Everyone needs to know how bad it was.

Except he hasn't actually lost Tim Scott. Timmy just wants the post to disappear so he can go back to kissing Trump's ass.

Busy morning, so I just got wind of the stuff about Trump and the Obamas. What the hell.

People missing the forest for the trees here. - Trump is an extortionist. - WAPO was a pain in his ass during his first term. - Bezos owns WAPO. - Bezos also owns AWS and Blue Origin. - Blue Origin and AWS are competing for big government contracts Put those together? Bezos killed WAPO for AWS.

Easily one of the funniest things I saw online yesterday. Glad he got arrested. people.com/texas-man-ar...

Mainstream news outlets like the Washington Post have too many reporters addicted to the pursuit of clickbait and access journalism. However, it's not good that the WP is being decimated because of decisions made to appease the Trump administration.

I just spoke about Springfield, our Haitian neighbors, and the hate and racism motivating Trump’s mass deportation plans. Minutes later, a judge blocked the White House plan to end TPS status for thousands of Haitians in Ohio. 1/2

THIS is a true lesser of two evils situation. Netflix wants to squeeze consumers for every dollar they can. MAGA zealots want to destroy any outlet not aligned with their worldview. deadline.com/2026/02/netf...

Good to see that many Dem elected officials now want to be seen getting involved in the cases of immigrants who have been wrongly detained by ICE. Let's spare a word for @vanhollen.senate.gov, who did this for Kilmar Abrego Garcia back when wise pundits said this was politically dangerous.

Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

"Not during Black History Month!" just getting ready.

Hearing a second journalist was taken into custody, not just Don Lemon. Independent journalist Georgia Fort was also arrested. Two Black journalists arrested.

Seattle hasn't looked right since that taunting call. #nfl

When I said this, I honestly didn't expect them to publicly execute another white person so quickly. Yeah, this might really do them in. The "I normally don't discuss politics crowd" is really rattled by this one.

UPDATE: @dropsitenews.com has obtained the very graphic video from the lady in the pink coat, which shows ICE executing yet another person in broad daylight:

I hate timed CBTs. Just let me skip to the end and answer the same five questions from last year.

Genuinely happy for Trevor to even be recognized this year. Here's hoping he can keep his improvement going next season. #Jaguars #nfl www.nfl.com/news/nfl-hon...

The truth is that most people will vote in November based on how they feel they are doing financially. Unfortunately, if the economy were good, the Republicans would not be in nearly as much trouble in November, regardless of ICE actions.

President Trump is promising to make America great again as he strips it for parts. Meanwhile, Chinese business and political leaders are quietly seizing the moment. Welcome to the Chinese Century, and @wired.com's newest print and digital issue:

Xfinity decided that now was the perfect time to start fking with the cable. Unbelievable. #nfl

I'm an idiot. We have a Dem mayor, so of course we're suddenly dealing with ICE. They just appeared this week and are spreading like roaches. jaxtoday.org/2026/01/15/i...

Even with a complicit governor, many Floridians are doing what they can to warn people about ICE. Even my area which is ruby red in many places.

ICE evil is everywhere, even in my city. Here's more on a man murdered while in detention in TX. apnews.com/article/ice-...
