Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin. This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.

The massive number of pardons and clemencies President Donald Trump has issued during his second term has cost the federal government at least $1.5 billion in penalty payments, according to one expert. www.rawstory.com/trump-pardon...

🎯x💯 "...this 👇is what the needs to do."

Trump's tariffs aren't hitting foreign markets like he claimed they would. The facts are clear: American importers, businesses, and U.S. consumers are shouldering nearly all the cost. Chaos is not a trade strategy. It harms working families and businesses alike.

thank you John Roberts and Mitch McConnell.

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

The detainee was an immigrant from Nicaragua who was being held in an immigration detention facility in El Paso, which the ACLU calls a “human and civil rights disaster.”

The world is literally falling apart. What the hell is in those Epstein files!

My guess is January 6, 2021 made him giddy, if not orgasmic. This is the sickest, most vile creature to ever dominate the United States of America. Release the Epstein Files. All of them. Now.

Where are the discussions about invoking the 25th Amendment? Where are the cabinet members and senators confronting this dangerous reality? Are these cowards and sycophants going to just stand by if and when he pursues war with Europe?

Russia’s Defense Ministry had claimed the sub was “completely undamaged,” but the image taken January 19 shows it remains stationary at the same dock.

So sick of Democrats blithering about how there's nothing they can do to stop this hell. Here's an idea... Introduce legislation to REPEAL THE INSURRECTION ACT! This will make it COMPLETELY clear to the military that any order deploying them against Americans is UNLAWFUL... no excuses!

"In the world, America stands for—and works for—the right of all men to govern themselves through free, uninhibited elections... 1/2

News: "In a rare direct rebuke to a U.S. president, three American cardinals urged the Trump administration to step back from foreign policy strategies and goals that threaten world peace." www.americamagazine.org/politics-soc...

Honestly boycotting the World Cup would be the most effective and probably the least disruptive of all of the options available to Europe. I’m not sure how you can send teams and fans to contribute to a spectacle designed entirely to celebrate a guy trying to invade your territory.

Everything about this administration is revolting. Lie after lie. Cover up after cover up. Sending 3K ICE agents to Minneapolis is a dry run. If there is no accountability here, the next city will be bigger. Where is the line, folks? People are already being killed.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer described the proposed tariffs as “absolutely wrong,” if imposed on European countries for seeking collective security through NATO... theukrainianreview.info/european-lea... Why would anyone punish others for wanting to defend themselves against a common foe?

I find this very believable to him nothing is more real than what he sees on tv, and he has a feral marketer's intuition of what plays well with a majority of Americans, and the tv that ICE and CBP have been making is nightmarishly bad

New tariff just dropped. Americans set to pay an additional 10% tax on all goods from Germany, the UK, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland. It starts in two weeks, rising to 25% by June. (Aside: A trade war with one EU country is a trade war with the entire EU).

Nope, not the first time and definitely not the second. Stupid is what stupid does. And they still aren't admitting it They got their heels dug in so far their going down with the ship and taking the rest of us with them.

“When you think of it, we shouldn’t even have an election.” Nothing to see here, folks 🤷🏼 www.reuters.com/world/us/fiv...

Meanwhile, as Trump invades Venezuela and toys with Greenland …

To summarize: innocent officials are under federal investigation when someone who actually committed a violent act is not. Prosecutorial priorities have gone out the window.👇

The contradictions are blatant, but I don't think they matter. The battle against what looks increasingly like fascism can't be won on logical argument in the public arena. It has to be won in the courts, through effective political opposition, or on the streets. We could fill a good-sized book...

Just one lamp to highlight the colour of the beech tree. #BlueSkyArtShow #One #Photography #EastCoastKin

Greenland is defended by all of NATO, which includes the United States. Alliances are one way to defend your territory.

The gesture wasn’t the story. The presidency is. A government run on spite, spectacle, and contempt for the people it governs. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

There is no recalibrated or sanitized way to conduct the war that Trump and Stephen Miller are waging on American cities right now. That’s because it’s a campaign of deliberate terror. The policy *is* the terror, and the terror *is* the policy. newrepublic.com/article/2053...

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

“It’s not just clashes between protesters and ICE; it’s an attack on basic rights that we’ve taken for granted,” says @mprnews.org reporter @jcollins.bsky.social.

“Trump may have given the finger to one man, but that ‘f**k you’ followed by a middle finger is what he’s been saying every day since he returned to the White House.” www.americaamerica.news/p/donald-tru...

In the US, Power comes from The People. The Constitution was written in a way to insure that The People are Not powerless. Our Government has three branches and they keep check on each other, and together on the President (who is term limited). Voters can insure the future of the USA or destroy it.

Three generations of law professors making history up is enough. Scholars spend decades researching and writing history with nuance and care. American law professors will take a couple of months to relearn all of science to explain why the world is, in fact, flat.
