"What is the war on vaccines really about?... ...[an] attack on the country’s threadbare social safety net by health libertarians whose strategy for making America healthy again appears straightforwardly to mean letting more of the country’s weak and vulnerable suffer and die."

REPUBLICAN Sen. Rand Paul: “We’ve thrown so much💰at this problem there’s piles of it sitting around. I don't want to defund ICE, but I'm not sure I want to give them billions more without signs there will be rules + an independent investigation.” (From @atrupar.com )

ICE is still terrorizing Minnesota kids: "Two vehicles parked while running on Wilson and Coolidge. They watched a middle school / high school kid get on the bus. After several other observers came out and started following, they circled around the neighborhood several times until finally leaving."

🚨BREAKING: ICE drew guns and POINTED THEM at a retired Minneapolis couple in a church parking lot. “They were obviously not trained… I've known many police officers….They had the professional demeanor of criminals." This is unreal. #NoWarrantNoICE

This was Kristi Noem's dream job. Visit a agency under her command and wear a different gear and costume. Kristi Noem is a cosplaying dog killer. #RESIST

Turn it over.

Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

At least 20 ICE & CBP officials have been charged with sex crimes against children “There is a real problem with gender-based violence by ICE agents, and the agency is not taking it seriously.”

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

ICE: Incels who should be in cells.

Governor Tim Walz warns of a national unraveling in an interview with @isaacstanleybecker.bsky.social. “It’s worse than you think,” Walz says of the situation in Minnesota.

ICE activity has not noticeably tapered off yet here and in fact this week they seem to be focused on terrorizing kids at bus stops and schools.

2. The bills, SB 244 and HB2426, have already been mired in controversy. Initially focused on driver’s licenses, Kansas Republicans used so-called “gut-and-go” procedures to rewrite the legislation while potentially bypassing public hearings. www.kslegislature.gov/li/b2025_26/...

1. The most extreme anti-trans bill ever proposed is currently rocketing through the Kansas legislature. It would empower bounty hunters to search for trans people in bathrooms, even in private businesses, and sue them for large sums of money. The House is voting on it today.

This is testimony… 📌 Stella Carlson, “Pink coat lady”, speaks on the murder of Alex Pretti. “After the shooting, they (ICE) decided to just scatter and save themselves.”

More ICE door-to-door operations are taking place in Blaine, Minnesota, on 1/28/26.

Stephen Colbert announced that his last show airs May 21st. What a coincidence, that's National Cancel Paramount+ Day.

We will find you

“To you this is murder?” “Yes. I know it is. — People are feeling like there’s nobody here to help us. What can we do? The constitution doesn’t seem to matter.” She witnessed the killing of Alex Pretti, now she is bravely coming forward. Stella is the best of us. 🇺🇸

Important. There has not been a deescalation.

Missouri @momsdemandaction.org volunteers are here, to attend an afternoon hearing about HB 2176, an "Anti-Red Flag" bill that also expands Missouri's "Shoot First" law, repeals the ability of local governments to regulate open carry, and lowers the age for CCW permits to 18--among other things

I'm here because as a longtime @momsdemandaction.org volunteer, we can't stand silently by when the gun lobby tries pushing the same extremist bills we see year in and year out. This particular bill rolls up into one dangerous package several of the worst gun legislation we see in Missouri.

Ideally lawmakers would be here to address Missouri’s LACK of a red flag law--how these laws save lives. Such a law could have prevented tragedy at Central Visual and Performing Arts HS in St. Louis. The shooter’s family pleaded with police to remove the shooter’s guns when they saw warning signs.

Police said they felt powerless to remove the shooter’s gun because under Missouri’s nullification law they would be penalized for assisting in the enforcement of a federal gun law.

But also, because Missouri lacked a red flag law, police were unable to directly petition a court for an order requiring the temporary removal of firearms in that situation. That shooting in 2022 could have been prevented and countless Missouri families could have avoided trauma.

Looks like ice breakers want to take the fight to ice. We are going. Are you? #kc #kansascity #iceoutofkc

In states where "Red Flag" (Extreme Risk Protection) laws exist, they've been proven to be critical, lifesaving tools that help keep firearms out of the hands of people who should not have them. This is only one part of the long list of measures in HB 2176.

But I'm here in part because I know far too many Missourians who've had loved ones--fathers, uncles, children--die of gun suicide. These deaths could have been prevented. But in Missouri, the rate of gun suicide has increased 16% since 2015--when I first became a @momsdemandaction.org volunteer.

Dear Senator Schumer: Get a clue and pushback on this ⬇️

We should pay more attention to what people are saying behind the scenes, and Frumpy’s earshot. Especially when they deny it to avoid his demented wrath.

1/4 Updates from folks from MN. People are So ANGRY& coming out in droves to help their neighbors & other citizens. ICE are disguising themselves as food delivery people, & also leaving notes on people's doors asking if they need help. Neighbors had been doing this

3/4. They also free people from detention at all hours of the day and night with no cell phone, money, or coat. People are waiting outside with coats and rides to help them.

Families of Two Trinidadian Men Killed in U.S. Strikes Sue Trump Administration

Anyone who saw “The Producers” knows that you can wring cash out of intentional flop. Jeff Bezos pumped money into Melania not to sell tickets but to bribe and flatter Trump.

Donald Trump’s “Beautiful Women“ Trump called these contestants in jr beauty pageants “beautiful women“ as he sneaked back to view them changing - hoping to see them naked. This isn’t normal. These aren’t “women“. We voted a pervert into the highest office in the land.

Interest rates remain the same. We can expect hundreds of posts from the dementia patient tonight.

We should be crystal clear: President Trump and many of his supporters have consistently attacked and lied about Rep. Ilhan Omar. We stand with @repilhan.bsky.social, and I’m proud to call her a friend and colleague.

ICE has no place on our streets. They’re tearing communities apart and causing harm wherever they go. No more. It’s time to impeach Kristi Noem and put a stop to this terror. Abolish ICE.

Remember the Kamala Harris-Donald Trump debate, during which Trump falsely accused Haitian immigrants of eating people's pets? Now he's trying to remove their Temporary Protected Status.

this quotation comes to a satisfying conclusion

Every video. Every eyewitness account and affidavit. Every piece of evidence produced directly refutes Kristie Noem’s outrageous claim that Alex Pretti sought to “inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement."

Our reporters Nate Halverson and Sam Van Pykeren caught up with Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) at Alex Pretti's memorial in Minneapolis on Monday. "To lose a 37-year-old son, and then to have that son insulted as a terrorist as opposed to celebrated as a hero...I was furious."
