Strange days indeed.

Unreal. He’s shutting down the Kennedy Center, after his flunkies caused mass defections of artists? Everything the man touches turns to ash. Our cultural heritage; destroyed. Our national treasures; plundered.

…For the government. youtu.be/DcjexguBS_w

If Don Lemon didn’t matter, they’d ignore him. They can’t. Power only fears what it can’t control. That’s Don Lemon. And they fear the platform he’s building. Which they just helped build.

This stems from most Democrats having only a slightly better (but still inadequate) theory of governance and understanding of public administration than Republicans. They don't know what's possible. This is why someone who *does* know what right looks like — like Zohran Mamdani — is so refreshing.

WHAT A STRIKE FROM MEESE 😤 USWNT x Volkswagen

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

We will not be gaslit. youtube.com/shorts/XV4cV...

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

Today is the tipping point. youtube.com/shorts/LDETj...

Understand: They only mean "2nd Amendment Rights" for themselves.

Say it out loud and say it with your chest. It was murder. Not a "shooting" Not a "execution" Not a "mistake" Murder. ( Homicide. Democide. Femicide. ) #3E #GoodvsEvil

'“What were the justifications for the boycotts of the Olympic Games in the 1980s?” Göttlich said. “By my reckoning the potential threat is greater now than it was then.'

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

one of the very most deeply wired of human instincts is "this is not fair" and that's why we try to build societies that are either fair or (more likely) lie to us about being fair what these people are doing is breaking that contract in favor of "fuck you I'm doing this because I can"

Pro tip for my friends in Minnesota.

Wise words from WEB DuBois to gird us today: "It would be shame and cowardice to surrender this glorious land and its opportunities for civilization and humanity to the thugs and lynchers, the mobs and profiteers, the monopolists & gamblers who today choke its soul and steal its resources."

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed. Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.

People want to have their basic needs met. They want to be paid a living wage. They want to stop being nickle and dimed by powerful corporations who control so much of our lives. They do not want Venezuela. They do not want Greenland. They do not want masked thugs terrorizing our communities.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

How dare they. There is no bottom, no line they won't cross. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

🚨ICE violently dragged a U.S. veteran out of her car near Minneapolis ICE: Get out of the f*cking car! Vet: You know I'm a Marine Corps veteran? ICE: I don't care what you are! [ICE drags her from car & then points taser at passenger] ICE: "F*cking move I'll f*cking taze you!"

The long-serving Catholic archbishop for pastoral care of all US military branches says troops can refuse orders to take Greenland by force as there aren’t circumstances where this would be a “just war”: aleteia.org/2026/01/19/u...

The Empire State Building is shining in red, black and green tonight in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Meanwhile

On #MLKDay, the UFW remembers the legacy of a hero. #MLK's words are as powerful today as when he wrote them in 1958. "He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it."

The worst politicians in America are about to quote Martin Luther King Jr. You can’t quote “I have a dream” on MLK Day then legislate against that dream every other day of the year.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

For the first time in history, the state of Virginia has a female Governor and right after being sworn in today Governor Abigail Spanberger’s first official act was to end cooperation between ICE-Gestapo and Virginia State Police. More of this. 💙👊👏

Trump lets another drug trafficker out of prison because his father happens to be a Republican member of Congress.

TODAY: Massive protests erupt in Greenland and Denmark as people take to the streets to show their unity against the United States threat

I've quoted this passage from Trump -- where he states his intent to cause riots and US economic collapse -- so many times. He flat-out announced it on Fox News in February 2014. In my book HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT I quote my own 2016 essay warning of his plan: www.hidinginplainsightbook.com

Talarico: I am announcing an anti-corruption agenda. Ban corporate PACs and Super PACs. Ban members of Congress from trading stocks. Ban partisan gerrymandering. Overhaul the Supreme Court. Pass term limits. And require every member of Congress to hold town halls.

Jasmine Crockett Has Some Questions

Anyone with a shred of class and decency would have politely refused it, so naturally Trump took it.

LEAVE GREENLAND ALONE . Americans do not support invading GREENLAND.

The main bank account holding revenue from the Venezuelan oil sales is located in Qatar. “There is no basis in law for a president to set up an offshore account that he controls so that he can sell assets seized by the American military,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren. www.semafor.com/article/01/1...

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Let’s talk about abolishing ICE. Very few people who say “abolish ICE” mean “abandon all immigration enforcement.” Rather, they mean “the structure of immigration enforcement is irretrievably broken and needs to be reorganized, just like we did 23 years ago when we created ICE.” /1
