Trump chose Kevin Warsh for Fed Chair because his father-in-law is a billionaire donor, the brains behind Trump’s idiotic scheme to invade Greenland. 1/

Jim Obergefell–the name you know from the SCOTUS case on LGBTQ+ marriage–has penned a hell of an editorial about the political battle over LGBTQ+ books in Ohio libraries. www.cleveland.com/opinion/2026...

True. This is history that everyone connected to UVA should know. news.virginia.edu/content/uva-...

We are publishing a running list of deaths and woundings as a result of the interior enforcement blitzkrieg across the country. That includes deaths during apprehension and deaths in custody. This will be consistently updated. Currently, there are 8 dead, 9 wounded, & 35 deaths in custody.

Today, Rep. Castro and I visited precious Liam and his father, Adrian, at the Dilley Detention Center. My heart absolutely breaks for Liam, his family, and every person being wrongfully detained.

my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Oh, you know, just a metro daily newspaper running a service journalism roundup of munitions the government has used against its own people

Training still can't fix this. Abolish ICE NOW.

This five year old is still in jail

Every senator should be following Rep. Ro Khanna’s lead and head to Minneapolis before they cast their vote on more ICE funding. It’s a moral test, and anyone who claims to stand for human rights should take notes. #DoNotFundICE NOT ONE MORE DIME @democrats.senate.gov @khanna.house.gov

To Gregory Bovino: This is what brandishing a firearm at a protest looks like.

Renée Watson wins the Newbery! She is a treasure and so is this book. I just gifted it to a young reader friend. It's a book in verse, so accessible, about grief.

Drink some water. Take your meds. Research whether backyard chickens can be selectively bred to evolve into fire-breathing dragons that BBQ fascists. Make that phone call you’ve been putting off. You’ve got this!

“Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come. This is one of them. If we give our freedoms away after 250 years, we might never get them back.” — President Bill Clinton, 1/25/26

Chicago Public Library is doing some amazing work.

The Atlantic finally catching up with what some of us have been saying for *years*

Boycott the FIFA World Cup in the USA. Don't reward fascism. #3E #BoycottFifaWorldCup #BoycottUSA #BoycottFifa

In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

Congressional Republicans gave Trump a slush fund for ICE and CBP in the "Big Beautiful Bill." Tens of billions of dollars that is still usable even during a shutdown. Democrats must make rescinding that money the price of any future govt funding, as Republicans did with IRS money from the IRA.

I want to talk about AltNPS, Minneapolis, #AltGov, and Luddites. One of my fears have come true. I knew this would happen when I made my AltNPS video, but it sucks to be right. And I know I'm not American, and I may not have the "right" to do so, but I will, because this is history repeating. 🧵

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

So they’re saying they will keep killing citizens until they can rig the election.

I have been sharing this - docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Words matter. Any media outlet describing ICE’s activities as “immigration enforcement” is circulating propaganda for Trump’s regime.

ICE isn't law enforcement without training; ICE is white nationalism with guns.

Let’s go, Virginia!

I was just supposed to follow clergy leaders as they did a pilgrimage from George Floyd Square to Renée Good’s memorial. But then when we got back to the landing spot, we found out an observer had been attacked by ICE agents who had been tailing the religious leaders. From me today in Minneapolis:

They're calling it The Great ICE Sucks Storm of 2026

Just in case you’re wondering, I have also been sworn in several times (for election work). I have no recollection of who did the swearing in.

“We have to build community. Indivisible is a wonderful organization. It has chapters all over the country, so join Indivisible.” The one and only @janefonda.com wants you to get in touch with your local organizers: indivisible.org/get-involved/find-a-group/

The destruction of Gaza has always been a real estate deal to enrich themselves and their friends. Despite talk of a “cease fire”, the killing continues to this day. www.express.co.uk/news/world/2...

Hearing Trump sniffle and slurp through this lying shitstorm of a speech has me yelling profanities at an almost unprecedented pace this morning.

@kaine.senate.gov and @markwarner.bsky.social … you need to support the abolition of ICE as well.

This is utterly deranged.

Springsteen at an unbilled performance at a Parkinson’s benefit Sat. in NJ— “…send a message to this President. And as the Mayor of that city has said, ‘ICE should get the fuck out of Minneapolis.’ So this one is for you, and the memory of the mother of three and American citizen Renee Good.”

It's beginning to look like all of those guns Americans buy to keep government in check were only ever bought for school shootings.

We’re in a moral fight, and Democrats in Congress need to start acting like the opposition party on every 👏🏽 damn 👏🏽 thing 👏🏽 Opposition isn’t about polite press releases and sad cable hits. It’s about using every procedural tool available to slow, expose, and force accountability. 🧵

It’s by David French, former Alliance Defending Freedom attorney, as responsible as any group for dragging the country to the actual state in which we live, one justifying the murder of a queer woman daring to stand up to their racist police work.

🎯

The truth is simple: ICE can’t be reformed. It has to be canceled and replaced with an immigration system rooted in civil rights, real oversight, and the Constitution. Anything less is enabling abuse with our tax dollars in our name.
