Estonia’s Foreign Minister Tsahkna opened a new Point of Resilience in Kyiv. He said the site provides shelter, warmth, and psychological support for Ukrainians amid Russian aggression and prolonged power and heating outages, stressing that attempts to break Ukrainian spirit will fail. #Ukraine

New, from me: Trump finalized his Schedule F policy, allowing him to remove job protections from career civil servants. The new rule is dishonest and unmoored from reality in its effort to formalize the politicization of the federal government 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/trumps-sch...

The files were a tragic epiphany to me. As a child & yo-woman I survived thru multiple sexual harassments & misconducts, I saw systems rigged: mostly by men. I felt smth's wrong but instead I began believing that I'm the problem. I tried to heal while gaslighting myself. I never was the problem.

Same-sex marriage is under attack again. The Christian nationalist right has launched a new campaign, and, unsurprisingly, it’s using children’s safety as a pretext to roll back equality.

ICE is disrupting every aspect of life for so many Minnesotans and hurting our small businesses and local economies. Minnesota is coming together to shop local and support our small businesses, but what we really need is ICE out of our state. www.twincities.com/2026/02/04/c...

If you were wondering why Indian trolls and bot farms happen to love Trump, Israel, and Russia so much. It also shows clearly Jeffrey Epstein was operating in service of Donald Trump and Israel well into Trump’s first term and influencing foreign policy. 👇

We will not be intimidated into staying home. We will keep the late John Lewis in our hearts as we head to the polls to drive the likes of these ghouls out of power and out of office.

ICYMI: Maryland Democrats advanced their effort to counter GOP gerrymanders nationwide and passed a new congressional map that would flip the state’s sole Republican seat blue. While the development comes as a win, the bill now heads to the state Senate, where its future remains uncertain.

I’ll be at Vancouver F2F weekend in two weeks! See you there!

Redistricting did not turn out how Trump wanted. So, now he is resorting to political prosecutions, ballot seizures and the threat of federal paramilitary to steal the 2026 midterms. He is normalizing the idea that his administration will take over ballot counting. We cannot let that happen.

These are the last words in the last column I wrote for The Washington Post, titled "When institutions crumble, strongmen step in". www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Alex Pretti wasn't killed by rhetoric, he was killed by two masked CBP agents shooting him 10 times in the back after they had disarmed and pepper sprayed him. Rhetoric didn't kill Renee Good either, a thug from ICE did that with a gun as she tried to avoid hurting him.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

please watch:

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

OpenAI's CFO suggested that the government could be a "backstop" if they can’t pay their bills. YOUR tax dollars as their "backstop." Meanwhile, OpenAI pays its employees an average of $1.5 MILLION dollars a year in stock compensation. Wow. That's just wrong.

Jeff Bezos took over the Washington Post Editorial Board and turned it into a mouthpiece for pro-corporate, pro-billionaire propaganda. Now, WaPo is laying off hundreds of *real* journalists — including the reporter covering Amazon. Democracy dies in billionaire hands.

I realised that I haven't posted the cover I designed for leebooksverlag ' epic novel, Ein Herz aus Lehm und Glas, by Sarah Skitschak. It's an epic story filled with intriguing, deep storytelling and heart-shattering schemes.

Two agents involved in the shooting deaths of US citizens in Minneapolis are reportedly part of paramilitary tactical units—including ICE’s two Special Response Teams (SRT), CBP’s one SRT, and the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC)—whose extreme tactics are generally reserved for war zones.

As Colorado’s chief election officer, Jena Griswold has been at the forefront of fighting against Trump’s assault on elections. She joined Democracy Docket to discuss Pam Bondi’s recent extortion letter for Minnesota’s voter rolls, her plan for the midterms and the GOP’s new anti-voting bill👇

This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.

Crockett: "Now my colleagues want to be the protectors of girls & women. I didn't hear them screaming this when Renee Good was killed in the middle of the street by the same people the vast majority of you just voted to give more money to. It was a lot of crickets, including about the Esptein files"
