”ICE has conspired to break into American homes without warrants based on secret and dubious legal theories. But someone needs to be asking: can those homes afford enough groceries?” Democrats in Congress polish their message for the midterms.

I have a simple post tonight. 25th the FOTUS and release the Epstein files as they were originally written. Yeah. That’s it. Why is this so hard to understand?

I don’t think people realize how catastrophic this weekend’s storm will be for Texas. This isn’t just “some ice.” This is grid breaking, infrastructure level damage in a state that proved in 2021 it wasn’t prepared and made no real improvements after

The total number of measles cases has surged to over 600 in South Carolina. Last April, our reporting found that national rates for four major vaccines fell significantly in recent years. In fact, measles vaccination rates were below herd immunity in most states in 2023: https://propub.li/4a61hjh

"Last year, 32 people died in ICE custody, exceeding any yearly total since 2004—including the pandemic years. ProPublica found that at least 170 American citizens have been caught in ICE dragnets and spent time in detention."

I wrote about Trump's terrible immigration poll numbers and why he doesn't seem to care. www.pbump.net/o/trump-does...

I can just picture them laughing and bragging about this.

DAILY MEMO: ICE and Border Patrol Continue Shooting and Assaulting Southern California Immigrants, Citizens, Women, and Minors

something we’ve learned from Trump is that there are no cigar-smoking string-pulling masters of the universe directing things from backrooms somewhere and if a serious administration wanted to go after their wealth they would fold exactly the same way

They separated kids at the border in Trump 1, and people went crazy, and they backed down, kinda, but no one got prosecuted or went to jail. So now they're doing this shit, just stealing kids and shipping them off, because they know they're safe. This doesn't end until law enforcement makes it end.

X's product head has multiple brushes with death from failing to chew

"Even if Renee Good had been disrespectful to law enforcement, a person cannot be murdered by the state for being disrespectful. You know where that can happen? In places like Venezuela, Iran, Russia, and China."

This is the bottom line. They will protect the money. Which is why there's a chance that the tariffs will be the other thing they don't give Trump. It's not that they care about the Constitution or the law, but they might rule against him to protect the economy.

This type of ENERGY!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

NEW: "Mitchell and EIN are hoping to change the dynamic of the 2026 midterms by pressuring state and local election officials to only allow voting to take place in small neighborhood precincts, rather than the vote centers." www.democracydocket.com/analysis/vot...

Gov. Newsom denied entry to USA House in Davos amid pressure from White House, spokesman says

bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers

MAGA Jesus is almost the exact opposite of OG Jesus.

Neither are particularly good, tbh.

Welp. They got the bear spray guy

@cnn.com offer her a show...during primetime, before someone else does. Whoever gets her..first...will be watching their ratings skyrocket. I'd bet on it.

@politicsgirl.bsky.social gave him the proverbial "ass kicking" that he has likely long believed no one could give him. She won...in a UNANIMOUS decision. Leigh is MADE for television! Bravo. I see her having her own show...and probably soon. I sure hope so.

No hell hot enough

Oh ffs. I wish a life of misery upon every one of these goons.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Unclear to me if this fucking five year old kid getting kidnapped is breaking through outside of the Twin Cities and I don’t want to speak for anyone else but this has really steeled my resolve. This shit cannot be allowed to stand.

This is what the entire world sees. If you've ever wondered how Germans in the 1930s could have ever been so fucking stupid — you now have your answer. 😳👇

They're kidnapping kids and shipping them across state lines after using them as bait, and the Democrats want you to protest "peacefully"

I don’t get asked to do as much TV these days. Here’s why. If CNN asked me to analyze Trump’s Davos “speech”, I would’ve said “Why analyze his speech? It’s pointless. Every word he uttered was a lie.” CNN wouldn’t like that take.👇 open.substack.com/pub/socialcont…open.substack.com/pub/socialco...ay

this guy was almost attorney general of the United States and he would have been if he’d been slightly less of an asshole to his Republican colleagues

Trump bullying Greenland polls even worse than Trump covering for powerful pedophiles

Imagine looking back at this time in a year, two years, ten years, and realizing that when fascists murdered moms and kidnapped five year olds and blinded people, you did... ...nothing. Don't let that be you. Look around. See what your neighbors need. Do SOMETHING.

NEW: I'm releasing tomorrow's show tonight. It's too important. An internal DHS memo instructs ICE to kick your door in without a proper warrant. Please share widely: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsZY...

Interesting scoop from Anna Giaritelli, who has good sources inside DHS. It suggests Noem and Lewandowski (seemingly still serving as a Special Government Employee despite having timed out months ago) are trying to push out the CBP Commissioner (former Border Patrol) because he's not harsh *enough.*

I think all the European leaders should start calling him Donald in public, since he is so disrespectful that he calls them all by their first names. He doesn't deserve to be referred to or addressed as "Mr. President" when he can't show the same respect to his peers.

WATCH — @repgreglandsman.bsky.social : “How much have David & Larry Ellison given to the Trump coin? Trump businesses? FCC chair Brendan Carr: 🤷🏼 LANDSMAN: “You’re going to weigh in on these acquisitions… It’s important for us to know how much these people are giving the president.”

When WaPo asked DHS abt possibility it won't get funded, it pointed to its propaganda about who it is arresting--the same lie it has been telling since Sen Padilla called Noem on it last summer. That makes MPR debunking all the more important.

Given the finding that the Cuban guy detained in El Paso was murdered, worth reading NYT piece on shock among Cubans that they're not exempt from Stephen Miller's dragnet. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/u...

I was at MANY of these stops. Here’s what would happen: the agents would stand guard at the cars, Bovino would literally pose out front while people yelled at him. It was a pathetic, obvious attempt to antagonize neighbors - they transited three gas stations and did the exact same thing thrice.
