Hillary Clinton’s fire and fury opening statement to the House Oversight Committee.

I’ve been obsessed with this band for over a week now. They’re a Quebecois duo that’s skyrocketing into viral fame following this virtuosic KEXP performance which released on February 5. They’re a great reminder that artistic weirdness can be magic.

Anyone with half a brain looking at the evidence would know that Trump raped children with Jeffrey Epstein. I’d have a slight bit more respect for any Maga fanatic, who simply admitted it while overlooking it because they liked his policies. Instead, they deny it.

My wife asked me, “why do you post on social media?“. I thought about it and explained to her that I try not to post often, but one of the reasons is that I want my grandchildren and great grandchildren who will wonder what the hell was going on in America to know precisely what side I was on.

Sadly, our Jewish friends who follow Trump are completely unaware or in denial of the Nazification of the Republican Party

Immigration is a resonant theme of Jewish life in the U.S. So it’s no surprise about 100 rabbis are headed for Minneapolis to protest the ICE raids there. religionnews.com/2026/01/21/t...

Maybe it’s just me but is it too much to ask for the “greatest country in the world“ to actually investigate, identify and detain undocumented criminals without having to round up and terrorize a lot of innocent folks?

Americans… it’s time to start asking ourselves if we are willing to die so that Donald Trump can take over Greenland?

These stats say it all

Seeing Indiana finish off the perfect season

Instead of the denial, lies, cover up and propaganda, why don’t you MAGA at least recapture one small piece of your self respect and admit that the evidence is overwhelming. Trump probably raped a lot of children, but you’re willing to look away because you like his policies.

A Nobel and a Dumbell walk into a bar…

We need a new amendment… “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear cell phones with cameras, shall not be infringed.”

Is United States next? - The International Olympic Committee has barred Russian athletes from representing their country at the 2026 Winter Games. - FIFA and UEFA suspended Russia from all competitions in February 2022 due to the invasion of Ukraine, and that suspension remains in force. 

Renee would be alive today if not for Donald Trump. Remember, his immigration enforcement push was initiated because of inflated allegations about fraud in Minnesota and his hate for the governor and Rep. Omar. Minneapolis is 1200 miles from the closest southern border of the United States.

Between the FIFA peace prize and America creating instability across the globe, I would be happy if the countries of Africa, South America and NATO were to boycott the 2026 World Cup being hosted in the United States

In World War II we fought against the Axis powers, which included Germany, Italy, and Japan. We are no longer Reagan‘s “shining city upon a hill”. Now, America is an Axis power along with Russia and China.

There is a madman the White House but blame Lies squarely on the hands of the 270 republican congresspeople who continue to sit on the sidelines and allow this to happen.

Thank you @realDonaldTrump! It’s an honor to serve you in this volunteer position to make the United States a part of Russia. This in no way affects my position as President of the Russian Federation!

The government is playing Whack - a - Mole with the Epstein files.

Yup

I thought this was pretty obvious all along.

Just posting this to all the Republican politicians who wish us a Merry Christmas during the holidays…

The rise of anti-semitism is clearly the result of Trump. History tells us that when leaders demonize groups of people, antisemitism rises. Trump has repeatedly referred to Somali immigrants as “garbage” In his remarks, he also said “Somalians should be out of here” and “their country stinks”

I hate to say I told you so.

You either think fascism is by definition something that can't happen in America - or you recognize that it already is. ICYMI @saletan.bsky.social: lnk.thebulwark.com/44UVz0H

Watching the Kristi noem testimony and the Congressman just asked the head of counterterrorism about antifa. He has no answer. It’s comical.

We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

A president with any balls at all would immediately admit Ukraine into NATO and tell Russia to Fuck off.

Yesterday, the Deportation Data Project posted new FOIA data on ICE arrests through October 15 and it’s staggering how much it instantly disproves every claim the Trump admin has made about targeting “criminals” during its splashy arrest operations. Here’s arrests in Illinois since April.

What’s happening now with government reporting is no surprise.

America must rise up against the extrajudicial killings carried out by the military in international waters. Otherwise, what Trump said years ago will indeed come true. “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose any voters.”

The ICE budget is approximately $25 billion for 2025. Estimates are that 100,000 folks will be rounded up this year in ICE operations. Do the math Americans. We are spending $250,000 of your tax dollars for each person apprehended.

Amazing how Plato envisioned Fox News a couple thousand years into the future

When I contemplate what happened between Trump and Mamdani, I am reminded that Trump is a wannabe bully and those bullies always back down when confronted in person by those they are bullying.

How to destroy democracy (as Vladimir Putin quietly smiles to himself) 1. Normalize military in our streets 2. Shut down the government 3. Eliminate food & healthcare support 4. Obsessively report increased crime from impoverished Americans 5. Declare marshal law 6. Suspend the vote

With the story now breaking of the NBA players and coaches involved in a gambling scandal, I’m reminded that our legislators are still free to trade stocks based on the insider information they have from their meetings on Capitol Hill

I was a registered Republican for many years. While I did not agree with every position, the leading legislators were strong, principled, and resolute in their beliefs. But now, with the fealty and capitulation of every single legislator to the MAGA agenda, the Republican party is no more.

This is one of the most important dynamics driving so much in America

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families — and we’re making that crystal clear by giving you the data. We’ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district. Let’s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

What’s happening now with government reporting is no surprise.

Trump's higher ed ransom note is here - everyone would have to acquiesce to their unprecedented demands or not be "given priority for grants," plus they can demand "reimbursement" for "violations" www.wsj.com/us-news/educ... A mechanism to enforce fealty. An attack on academic freedom and democracy

As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway

@millsish.bsky.social I see you are coming to the Pony!!! Can’t wait. Hope I can get tickets
