More precisely it’s Putin, Epstein, Trump.

If there's ever been a time to NOT be incrementalist, this is it. The most political capital you're gonna have is right now. And we got Gestapo death squads in MSP and TB spreading through concentration camps in Texas. If you can't find a win there, get out of politics. The Epstein Class, baby

It’s fucking heartbreaking watching the pleas from MN residents start echoing the pleas from Gaza residents

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Here's the thing, living in a fascist occupation and still doing normal shit like dealing with annoying neighbors or cleaning your cat litterbox is fucking surreal. If our lives have to be surreal, I'm glad this is how we're responding.

🚨BREAKING: Local Minneapolis police SWARM ICE protesters making mass arrests in front of ICE prison. One protesters forehead is gushing blood ⬇️

SEN. OSSOFF: “.. why are roving gangs of masked men — who look like they couldn’t pass the Army physical exam — dressed up like pretend Delta Force operators, on our streets, demanding papers, dragging people from their cars, and shooting people to death?” @acyn.bsky.social

Twenty years of post-9/11 wars broke society's idea of positive masculinity and made American men believe being an "operator" was the only viable signifier of manhood. The problem was that most men weren't willing or able to do that job. But the need to prove masculinity remained. So we get this.

NBC editing out the booing of JD Vance is a disgrace. It’s an international event. Americans have the right to know what the world is saying. NBC has bowed down to Trump.

over the next 3 years, be ready for seeing a lot of coverage of Republican lawmakers, business leaders, university leaders who did absolutely nothing to stall Trump (on the contrary) — about how *actually* they were wringing their hands all along. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/05/u...

And we must ensure such bullshit does not protect them from the housecleaning that's coming down the pike

Inject this into my veins

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

Like his Confederate forebears, Ted Cruz talked a big game, started a fight, got absolutely dog walked, then cried about how unfair it all was. A story in four images.

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

‘It’s pissing people off’: Centrist Democrats are livid with AIPAC after primary fiasco AIPAC spent $2 million attacking moderate-leaning Tom Malinowski in a House special election — and may have inadvertently handed the race to progressive Analilia Mejia.

Child sex trafficking is illegal. Underage girls were sent from Mar-a-Lago to where Jeffrey Epstein was located. So much evidence that no one can deny it. Donald Trump must be removed as president. Those in his administration must be removed for covering it all up. Cover-ups are crimes too.

A person in power who is supposedly on our side messing up the name of a person murdered by ICE feels like a new low of casual horror.

If you think the 5th Cir. decision will only cause folks who entered illegally to be detained with no due process and no remedy (which is unconscionable on its own), you have not been paying attention. They are going to try to normalize mass warrantless detentions of EVERYONE they want detained.

Thanks for voting to confirm all of those MAGA judges before retiring, Dick. They’ll be causing problems for an entire generation. cc: @durbin.senate.gov

MAGA collaborator.

delauro’s comments today pretty much confirm this

I will never not hate seeing this

There are many different, often contradictory ideas people have about what makes a "fair" map. Overall party proportionality. Geographical compactness. Communities of interest. And the GOP supports exactly none of them because their position on the issue is pure partisan hypocrisy and nothing else.

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

Transparency and accountability. After DHS shot Marimar, they lied about it and then tried to criminalize her. Now, it is time they release the footage because Marimar deserves justice.

Before Keith Porter, Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti… ICE killed a father after he dropped his kids off at school. We didn’t hear much about it because he was undocumented. They said he was trying to flee & shot him in the back of the neck. Silverio Villegas-González. Don’t forget him.

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

I cannot over-emphasize how important it will be for people to make a plan to vote early in-person this year.

“There is a clear sign that the Democratic electors is desperate to elect new leaders.” Can confirm. cc: @quigley.house.gov @durbin.senate.gov @duckworth.senate.gov

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

can't say which i find more appalling, remnick handing him a "fair enough" on the left and right being equally antisemitic or saying there was "no immigration policy" under dems. either way, super embarrassing for remnick to get steamrolled this hard by the right's pre-eminent midwit

Not sure how you plan to reform this @quigley.house.gov

Last night we had 2 ICE agents get out of a car, pepper spray legal observers, shout something to the effect of "I'm fucking ICE motherfucker" and drive away.

DEVELOPING: Federal judge will let Marimar Martinez release text messages sent by Border Patrol agent who shot her From @chicago.suntimes.com: chicago.suntimes.com/2026/02/06/f...

Everyone in the White House involved in any way with that vile, sickening racist Trump post must be fired immediately: everyone in the communications department, everyone in the press office, every deputy chief of staff, everyone involved up and down the line. Not one more tax dollar for this filth.

Ok now were talking go get em Jamie

MEMPHIS: “Memphis Safe Task Force” (U.S. marshal) caught KICKING A PUPPY 😳 as they arrested a guy for on a drug warrant “He was harmless. There’s no reason he should’ve done that.” @GovBillLee this is what we’re paying $1 Million a day for?🤔 Full: wreg.com/news/video-u...

Gotta love it that in my research about how Trump destroyed the IRS, I came across an official Treasury press release referring to the IRS as the *International* Revenue Service. This has been corrected since then, but what a bunch of useless amateurs. web.archive.org/web/20250620...

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot. I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.

Finneas is better at political messaging than 99% of the Democratic consultants in DC.

Fight vs don’t fight. Which one is Quigley? cc: @quigley.house.gov

VA Gov. Spanberger (moderate, was in CIA) and NYC Mayor Mamdani (left, is in DSA) both taking steps to block local law enforcement from helping ICE as it violently violates people's rights is a good example of how the relevant divide in the Dem coalition isn't center-left, it's fight-don't fight.
