Grijalva: The frustration for me is that it seems as if Speaker Johnson is not willing to swear me in because our politics are a little different, or because I’m going to be the 218th signer—he can just continue to drag this along with no end in sight. That is not a foundation of our democracy.

Police in Airdrie, Alberta (just north of Calgary) say this driver hit a 17-year-old girl in a marked crosswalk, got out of the vehicle, and appeared to get upset at the teenager before driving away. They released this video and are now trying to identify the driver.

Here’s a full summary of the hearing: Senate: you’re doing all the things you said you would NOT do during your confirmation hearing! Pam Bondi: yup Senate: ok You’re all caught up.

So far, the only thing of note in this pathetic Pam Bondi judiciary hearing is that she has absolutely no fear of ever being held accountable for lying under oath to the Senate and the American people, or doing whatever is necessary to protect Trump and his rich pedophile friends.

I feel like one of the aspects we've not talked about on the National Guard problem is that we have state heads of the Guard that are following orders not from their governors (in CA's case)--who have the rightful control--and are invading other sovereign states.

Vietnam, dodging its own laws in order to fast-track a new Trump golf course—& potentially dodge debilitating tariffs in the process" "Saudi Arabia...welcoming another Trump-sponsored skyscraper" www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Pam Bondi, Trump's loyal shieldmaiden, unravels spectacularly under Senate scrutiny, dodging queries on Epstein docs, Jan. 6 purges, and Homan's alleged bribe with red-faced rants and interruptions. #TrumpAdministration

How is it not news, according to the @nytimes.com, that an ICE agent in Chicago said "do something bitch" and deliberately SHOT a United States citizen? Can someone answer that question for me? @toddgregory.bsky.social @peterbakernyt.bsky.social @kenvogel.bsky.social @risenc.bsky.social

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

#Pinks #ProudBlue ICE agent called woman “bitch” before he shot her seven times. She was not brandishing a weapon as they claimed. Why won’t they release his name? Don’t let them provoke you. Record everything you can safely. www.newsweek.com/border-patro...

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent. Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

This strikes me as pretty bad

I fear if things don’t change right now, this image is going to come back to haunt us

This is not going to end well. Sooner or later an American citizen is going to get killed.

So weird how Fox suddenly has no problem with people wearing masks

Queue all the people complaining about pedestrians. She's wearing all white, in broad daylight, using a pedestrian corridor. But sure let's get rid of speed enforcement and increase traffic speed limits. Why do we want our kids to die to save 30 seconds?

IN HONOR OF FRIENDSHIP MONTH: djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey." Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it." djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret." And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children. #PedoPrez

Fox and Jessie Watters specifically are useless trash. They make Jerry Springer look serious. This really does look like they masked up Robert O'neill for these fictional "interviews". This fits right in with right wing influencers showing up in Portland pretending to be Antifa.

Remember, a major component of the MAGA cult establishing an alternate reality—a term I use here literally rather than figuratively—is getting Trump supporters to *actually* (not merely rhetorically) believe that Joe Biden was president in 2020, when the pandemic started. This cannot be overstated.

Just go ahead and delete article 1 entirely while you’re at it.

One of the president’s most influential advisers made an alarming claim about the nation’s highest office while speaking yesterday to CNN’s Boris Sanchez.

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files. She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

Can someone please ask @AGPamBondi if ICE is now staffed by extremists organizations like Proud Boys, 3%ers, and the former Identity Evropa & League of the South. What about those who participated in the January 6th insurrection? Many people are saying this is true.

Miles was chief of staff at DHS in Trump’s first term 👇🏽

“Democrats shut down the government” is quite a take when it’s your own party blocking a deal to protect Americans’ healthcare.

This picture is from 1992 in LA and using it in this post and story shows terrible news judgment.

When Trump is about to do something awful, he signals ahead so that people can get acclimated to the idea. It reduces the likelihood of a blow up from people due to the shock. Brace yourselves America. You put him in power. Get ready for the road to fascism to accelerate at a fast pace.

The Oregon Republican Party tried to help Donald Trump make the case for military intervention in Portland with an image of a fiery protest — but since Portland is calm, they had to fabricate one by merging old photos of police in Ecuador and protesters in Brazil www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Schumer: There are no negotiations going on. Trump said there were, and we contradicted him. And actually, just a couple of hours ago, even his own press secretary had to refute what he said. And you know why he’s saying this? He’s feeling the heat.

Schumer: I want to say to Donald Trump, to Johnson, and to Thune: come to the Capitol, sit down in public, and debate us on the health care crisis that’s afflicting Americans. The public needs to see this.

Schumer: That issue that MAGA Mike keeps talking about—illegal immigrants getting health care. It’s an effing lie. The law says that federal dollars cannot go to illegal immigrants under Medicare, Medicaid, or the ACA. And I said that to him in the room. I said, You’re lying. He smirked.

Ordering state police to have a confrontation with federal agents or the military — while it might “feel” satisfying to some — is a recipe for disaster, one in which someone will get hurt, and provide the exact pretext they are looking for to…do something worse. Pritzker is right here, sorry

Coming soon to Bari Weiss' CBS News: "Greta Thunberg -- worse than bin Laden?" and "Palestinians -- are they actually humans? Experts from the Likud and IDF weigh in."

There is an escalation ladder here and he understands how that is the absolute last step, one you don't touch until all else has failed and you've done a lot of laying the groundwork. Things are bad, heading that way, it's deadly serious. But we're not there yet and he is right to not say it now.

Last week Jesse Watters spoke to man named Eric who claimed he was formerly a member of antifa. Two years ago Watters interviewed Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza, a former Mexican Mafia member. Some folks thought the men looked similar. This is a side by side comparison. 🤷‍♀️

Newsflash: Either Trump breaks it all and everybody dies in a long series of horrendous wars, political chaos, and climate collapse, or we shut this shit down and do the fucking obvious: tax the rich, UBI, universal healthcare, K-16, sensible consumer protections across the board.

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

Vancouver City Councillors @seanorr.bsky.social and @lucymaloney.bsky.social are calling to prioritize a SkyTrain extension to UBC, which I wholeheartedly support. To voice your opinion Wed at the council meeting: vancouver.ca/your-governm... #vanpoli #cdnpoli @davidebybc.bsky.social

Someone should do a FOIA request for the raw footage of the videos they took of that Chicago raid and then edited into a fascist ad for ICE.

Rayfield: When Trump learned that this was a judge who was appointed by him, he said he wasn’t served well. To have any president or any politician in America say a judge is not serving them—words can’t even describe how backwards that is. Phang: He’s not the king. He’s the court jester.

The entire country is walking on eggshells because a madman is hallucinating about crime sprees and burning cities.

The moment that judge failed in their duty, an order came from Miller or some other fascist in the government to accelerate the invasion of Illinois by 1000% to get boots on the ground before the judge could issue a ruling. Once boots are on the ground, enforcing a ruling becomes almost impossible.

Every judge who acts like it's 1995, not 2025—like the system can work at exactly the thick-porridge pace it has operated at for hundreds of years, because we're not actually in any sort of emergency—isn't meeting the moment. More importantly, they are not upholding their Oath to the Constitution.

The judge in Oregon understands America is under a literal imminent fascist assault; the judge in Illinois does not. This is how we tell the difference. Trump and his goons face no irreparable harm, but Illinois does. The injunction needed to be issued immediately, before the illegal invasion began.

Trump sounds like he took a swig from Hegseth’s personal flask before going on stage.

Miller, basically: "How dare you evil, America-hating communist antifa insurrectionist domestic terrorists call us bad names. And if you scumbag cockroach enemies of the state DO call us bad names, any violence that occurs anywhere in the country is your fault."

MORE:

MORE: Minutes after this happened, video emerged of ICE officers on the roof of a facility in Portland firing rubber bullets at protesters outside the facility—not on facility grounds—who were merely standing and looking at the building. No violence, no crimes, no disruptions. They were fired upon.

BREAKING: Stephen Miller—both Trump Administration capo and de facto head of DHS, ICE, and DOJ, has just declared that peaceful protesters are "street terrorists." Under an executive order signed by Trump just days ago, that means he is saying that all protesters in America can be arrested on sight.
