at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

Alpha News claims that it has obtained the cellphone video recorded by the ICE officer who shot and killed Renee Good. (Warning: Disturbing.)

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social: Trump "said he was gonna lower costs, he did the opposite. He said he was gonna make healthcare more affordable, he did the opposite. He said that America would become a more peaceable place on his watch. We are seeing instead how he is deliberately stirring up chaos."

Name another song that mentions the word "Work" or Working." 🎶 Written by Paul McCartney & John Lennon, the song "We Can Work It Out" started a 3 week run at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on January 8, 1966. The song was 7th best-selling single in 1960s UK.

"They will lie about you and then kill you and they will kill you and then lie about you."

Last January, when many of us were telling everyone that Trump's appointees were all terrible, The Washington Post gave thumbs up to many of the worst of the worst. Listen to and support independent media. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

They are trying to get you to reject the evidence of your eyes & ears again today. #J6 #Liars

He must be removed from office

Every damn Democratic congressperson should be physically standing together on the steps of the Capitol and demanding an end to this deadly abuse. Are they really unable to fight back against this despicable propaganda used to justify the killing by ICE and supported by Noem and Trump?

Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, “Move, move, move.” So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?

🤬💔🤬

Her name is good. May her death from an ICE agent’s bullet not be in vain.

Katie Miller and Jenny McCarthy have teamed up to push dangerous medical disinformation. This episode is boring so it's hardly being viewed by anyone - it contains itself - more people will see it on my page where I can call it what it is - dangerous disinfo - than on her page.

Jenny McCarthy: "I am the OG anti-vaxxer."

The web page’s release on the anniversary of the attack showcases the Trump administration’s long-running effort to erase or revise the history of Jan. 6. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Thank you

This is blatantly illegal. A president can’t go into the oil business and then decide where to spend the money. We are completely untethered from our founding document with a lawless president and a Republican Congress which has abdicated all Constitutional authority.

The Trump Administration freezing $10 BILLION in child care funding for 5 Democratic states, but still spending billions on unnecessary military ops in Venezuela. My take on this latest grotesque misuse of taxpayer dollars & how the GOP continues to fail Americans. youtu.be/R9Kp_SyMptU?...

🔥NYT: “Trump is the Jan. 6th president… It was a turning point toward an even more lawless version of Trump… people who violently attacked Congress & beat officers escaped w/o lasting consequence… Tragically, 🇺🇸 is still living in that political era…” www.nytimes.com/2025/12/31/o...

Name another song that mentions the word "Sound" or "Sounds." 🎶 Written by Paul Simon and originally recorded by Simon & Garfunkel in 1964, "The Sound of Silence"(originally written as "The Sounds Of Silence") hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on

Mark Cuban on why he got into business selling drugs at a fixed markup, when he could make more money by selling at higher prices: “Because I’m rich as fuck and I didn’t care about the money....My next dollar is not going to change my life.”
