Republicans see Trump's lies, crimes, abuses, bigotry, and insanity. Some just don't care. The rest support him because he's the same kind of screwed up as they are.

ICE is terrorizing schoolchildren in the Twin Cities again today

Federal immigration agents forced open a door and detained a U.S. citizen in his Minnesota home at gunpoint without a warrant, then led him out onto the streets in his underwear in subfreezing conditions, according to his family and videos reviewed by The Associated Press.

The Prime Minister of Belgium speaks:

Nazi concentration camps didn’t start with gas chambers. They started with “undesirables” in crowded, filthy conditions Initially, to keep the numbers of reported deaths down, they discharged terminally ill prisoners to die elsewhere, off the books I lay odds our Nazis are doing the same thing

When insanity reaches the highest levels of authority, laughter may be the only medicine around: youtu.be/QOMezvaWPjg?...

Just remember that Trump’s evangelical base is rooting for the end of the world and things will make sense

2026 is going to be a very dark year for US foreign policy, where everything that was built over many decades by leaders for collective security is torn apart by one madman, but only because people in his own party remain silent.

The helmet

Impossible to describe what a raw nerve the rapid response channels are when you’re NOT on patrol. ICE sighted everywhere, all over the neighborhood. Silence and then swarming. This is not an immigration agency, it is not a law-enforcement agency. It is a state-sponsored terror agency.

No doubt that Trump security threat to the world (including Ukraine) and his own citizens in the U.S. His loyalty is only to fellow dictators and strongmen, not to U.S. allies or democracy. The GOP majority in Congress has the power to stop the insanity, but they refuse....

“Trump is the first president not to issue an official proclamation recognizing Martin Luther King, Jr. Day since President Reagan made it a holiday.”

I keep seeing posts stating that ICE cannot enter your home or a private business without a judicial warrant. While that is legally correct, in reality ICE routinely violates the law by forcing their way in, often by smashing down doors, before violently assaulting people. Trumpism is fascism.

Another example of Trump and trumpism sullying the rest of the country

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

MLK Jr., Fannie Lou Hamer, Dolores Huerta, and countless others who have moved the world held no formal positions of power. They had moral power to tell the truth and mobilize others to fight back. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC0vKzRmPos

There is no strategy www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

"When it comes time to produce something vaguely resembling a policy blueprint, Trump steps aside & the right-wing ideologues who surround him take over. His only job is to record a brief video, try to stay awake through a White House event on the subject, & then go back to not talking about it."

This chart by @nathanielbullard.com is one reason data centers are driving up our electricity prices. Tech companies usually build data centers close to cities, where accommodating their GW-scale power demand entails costly reinforcement of wires or transformers. Utilities pass those costs on to us.

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.

Nothing could be truer. Damn!

Being called hun, having some good pie and coffee would have done him good.

So many headlines are not aging well.

Trump has obviously been giving any and all intelligence Putin wants to him. That is treason. Trump should be more than impeached after we get the bastard out of office. He should be tried for treason.

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

Every time Trump breaks the clear letter of the law, the NYT and WaPo write a story about how he’s “pushing boundaries” or “testing the limits of his authority” He's not Chuck Yeager, guys. He's a crook.

@mattbors.bsky.social is a prophet

I can’t believe they’re not being laughed at into irrelevance Even NPR frames their clown wonka-wonka! “statements” as somehow worthy of analysis

I think what some people miss is that your state ID is not proof of citizenship, so in theory no one is safe. Your driver’s license is not a proof of citizenship. No one is safe under this batshit administration. No one. I beg everyone to understand this.
