My God.., A mass casualty event happened on Bourbon St in New Orleans. A pickup truck slammed into party goers and then the assailant started shooting. - 10 or more dead, 30+ injured The mayor says it’s a terrorist attack, but the FBI says it isn’t. www.fox8live.com/2025/01/01/l...

I’m thinking of everyone in Grand Blanc. This is a heartbreaking tragedy. Whether it’s a church, a school, or a grocery store—every public space in America should be safe from gun violence. So here I am saying it again: we need common sense gun safety laws.

I was a teen in Halifax when Dr. Morgentaler opened his clinic. I saw all the vitriol he got. I didn't understand, at that young age, why people would be mad about safe health care for pregnant people. I still don't. #AbortionIsHealthcare

My favorite Peter Sellers scene.

While the medbed thing might seem inscrutable, the answer is obvious: Jung spoke of a collective unconscious desire, embedded within the American psyche, to return to the womb-like safety of the iron lung

Can't we just get healthcare

My series of oil paintings of Girls-Who-Are-Not-Having-Fun-at-this-“Party” are finally framed and hung together in my study. #MedSky

ya sex is nice but have you ever made a particularly pertinent comment during book club and everyone starts snapping in approval

Like Hakeem Jeffries either truly believes that we are just gonna ride this era out as a nation and it will be business as usual in 2028 OR he is being paid to behave this way. Either way, he needs to be primaried and voted out

Oregon AG Rayfield: I know for a fact, from talking to cities across Oregon, that if you pick up the phone and ask, “What could be helpful?” the answer would not be the United States military.

Hope he gets the entire $50M!!!

Never in over thirty years of law practice have I seen the government so blatantly seek to intimidate FOIA requesters by threatening tens of thousands of dollars of fees, merely because we sought our statutory legal rights to expedite processing of documents.

Why are they unable to sell the harvest, Senator?

@ericswalwell.bsky.social, Speaker Johnson refuses to swear in fairly and duly elected Rep #AdelitaGrigalva. There is a way for Dems leadership to get it done. DO IT! Fight for Democracy and to release the #EpsteinFiles #DemsGrowASpine #CallYourRep #PGAS CA14 app.sosha.ai/s/aYx9d767

it may feel a little like homework, but i genuinely think people should read the lincoln-douglas debates to see what the practical politics of anti-slavery looked like in an environment where the public was neutral to hostile to the question of emancipation

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.

Hahahahahahaha #ResistFascism

I feel very strongly that we must use the next three years to build a new opposition movement. I tried to lay out my reasons and what I think we need to do to make it happen. Please watch, comment, and share. youtu.be/_GUgnpAYMCc

There is absolutely zero need for this costly show of militarized force in Portland. 📌 Armored vehicles with federal agents arrived at the federal building in Portland.

💯

Not only should the Dems refuse to cave on the shutdown; they should announce they won’t vote for a budget until: (a) the military is withdrawn from every American city where it’s been deployed; (b) the budget forbids the use of any funds for that purpose; AND (c) the healthcare demand already made.

It’s all going to come out.

she said what she said...

My dearest wife, It is week two of the Siege of Portland, and still these barbarians will not yield to our troops. We have severed the cords of their latte machines but they are making cowboy coffee in their camps, where loud ukulele songs of resistance even now drift in on the breeze.

A traditional Native American ceremony is held at the Broadview. ICE Facility In Chicago, featuring a spiritual round dance of healing.

Do we say a man is sane when he calls in the military to fight a war when there is no war? If such a man is not sane, do we have a solution to stop the madness if he’s in the White House?

They're going to try to overturn Obergefell and end marriage equality. Eyes wide open, folks. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

Someone knows who this ICE agent is. He assaulted a woman who posed no threat to him. #Shame

Ted Cruz recently chastised the left for demonizing ICE by referring to them as Nazis Well Here’s an ICE agent demonizing immigrants, using Nazi like verbiage

“It’s yet another way this regime practices eugenics. By refusing disabled people the accommodations they need, they’re targeting them for elimination. People die in ICE custody every year, but we often don’t hear about them. Their stories go untold, their pleas unheard and the eugenics unopposed”

I’ve known Steve for several years — he’s dug up a lot of stories of great importance to Chicago about a variety of topics, including CPD and now ICE. Journalism is not a crime

The war zone at the Portland ICE facility.

“The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.” I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt. And that’s wrong.

It’s a fact. Data from three decades of political violence reveals that right-wing terror attacks outnumber attacks from the left. And it’s not even close!

I saw Paul McCartney in concert last night & predict he has a very bright future ahead of him. 👍 #MarkMyWords

"Did something feel…off about the whole Cracker Barrel debacle to you? Did you think, 'There’s just no way anyone cares about Cracker Barrel’s logo this much, right?' Well, you might have been onto something..."

LTC Brandon Salter commands 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines, 1st Marine Division. He’s in charge of the USMC troops that deployed into LA. I will not forget his name; in fact, I have it in a file. Many other vets and I will be advocating strongly for his court-martial at a future point.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

Damn straight!!

Can we stop acting like he is mentally healthy? Stop repeating his words” big beautiful bill” It’s not. Stop listening to his lies and not questioning the crazy made up shite. Stop allowing him to continue with deranged dangerous BS.

🚨BREAKING: Pennsylvania Supreme Court RULES that election officials violated voter’s rights by rejecting mail-in ballots with technical errors without notifying voters. Voters must be given notice their ballots won’t count so they can challenge the disqualification or cast a provisional ballot.

Nobody who joins ICE has ever had friends, enjoyed sex, or made another person happy in any way. They’re miserable bastards and they only want to spread their misery, to offload it. They will fail at this, too. Their misery will just get worse. I have scientific proof of this.

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of Our Oregon and 3 voters, my firm has filed a motion to intervene to oppose DOJ's effort to obtain voter registration data — including sensitive personal information like birthdates and partial Social Security numbers. www.democracydocket.com/cases/oregon...
