Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans. This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota: “Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power - file impeachment articles every day in the House - withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee - be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

masked, unidentified goons who assault and murder with impunity. a literal gestapo.

JOURNALISTS: Please post more video of the Minneapolis ICE crime taking place — it’s murder in cold blood, with NO just cause — people need to see it!!! 🚨

The scars remain. We haven't forgotten the day domestic terrorists stormed the Capitol.

The social media responses are on point

This will be the first year in a decade that I'm not regularly writing for @scholarlykitchen.bsky.social 😢, an essential source for understanding scholarly infrastructure. Highly rec. EIC @dacrotty.bsky.social's roundup of most read posts for 2025. scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2026/01/05/t...

Wrote a thing: The carnage associated with fossil fuel is why speeding the transition to renewables is good for international stability as well as everything else. Fossil fuel is inseparable from violence, and dependence on it it has created a brutal world order....

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

It’s the United States that needs regime change.

Let’s be clear! This is CONQUEST! Open ended running of Venezuela by USA, where we (USA) will be taking oil from Venezuela that ostensibly is to pay for the running of Venezuela &/or repay USA! This sets the precedent for illegal imperialistic military actions by Trump/GOP in Mexico, Greenland etc.!

Better start printing those ca. 2003 bumper stickers again.

rubio pretty much believes in a reverse domino theory for latin america and since he is effectively running foreign policy in the region i would expect him to see cuba as his next target

If your position is that regime change should be forced on countries where the president does not respect democratic norms and regularly kidnaps opponents using an officially sanctioned paramiliatary, have I got news for you about your position on the United States

I’ve not forgotten this tweet.👇

DOJ is still in violation of the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

Back in 2016, I interviewed @markfallon.bsky.social, who predicted (based on his experiences at Guantanamo) that without fully documenting and punishing war-on-terror abuses, the US under Obama had only managed to hit pause on some of its atrocities and was destined to continue as a rogue state.

an “inherent power” to respond to an “imminent” attack is just a license for aggressive war on the president’s whim

The first time I encountered this dude's (Dokoupil) "journalism" chops was when he was face-planting questions to Coates. Amazing how "some people" fail up! www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/c...

I'm excited to be doing more work with @pulaskiinstitution.bsky.social @aselrod.bsky.social this year. Building democracy in the heartland is essential to our country's future, and yes, it is possible! Join the cause!

Hey @carlygoodman.bsky.social, here you go! Would love to talk about getting this project in front of your readers. moreamerica.substack.com/p/phillis-wh...

Today's featured title: "Wakara's America: The Life and Legacy of a Native Founder of the American West," by Max Perry Mueller, Basic Books, 2025 @maxperrymueller.bsky.social www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/max-p...

Not Somali.

Philip Esformes in Florida committed MORE FRAUD than every single Somali scheme in the state of Minnesota COMBINED. His total fraud was $1,300,000,000. TRUMP PARDONED HIM, SO HE GOT AWAY SCOT-FREE!

"Between the administration and the opposition are actual opposites of principle: among those committed to inclusion and those to exclusion; truth and lies; kindness and cruelty; the protection and destruction of systems that in turn protect the climate or public health."

Stealthy malice.

“They used [the paintings] . . . as though his work aligned with their values, i.e., promoting this segregationist vision of America,” said Daisy. “And so of course we were upset by this, because Norman Rockwell was really very clearly anti-segregationist.”

Check out the ad for Wakara’s America in the NY Review of books Table of Contents! @basicbooksgroup.bsky.social, thank you!

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta. Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

This message hits hard.

Enjoying this report by David Hart who argues that the smarter strategy for the US is to compete with China in the EV space. Electric vehicles are a superior technology & will eventually displace ICE vehicles. Abandoning the contest will leave the US behind. www.cfr.org/report/compe...

This is profoundly un-American. No—that's not right. It's *anti*-American. It's hatred of the United States and its founding documents and all its people and all its traditions. The person who wrote and approved this is a weirdo who detests everything that America stands for.

James Madison spinning in his grave.

This has nothing to do with faith or observance btw. It’s just about establishing an official hierarchy of citizenship where they are on top. bsky.app/profile/mark...
