This flew under the radar, but it shouldn’t have. When senator Alex Padilla was tackled by DHS, Kristi Noem’s side piece, Corey Lewandowski, was orchestrating the situation in the hall.

My point—the singular theme of my campaign for Congress—is this: Whatever your specific policy priorities and preferences may be, wherever you think the public interest should take us, we can’t and won’t get there unless and until we … (1/7)

If you step back and think about how our country is supposed to operate - how it used to operate - The fact that Donald Trump encouraged/pressured the Justice to try to charge 6 sitting senators with crimes for using 1st Amendment rights is enough to warrant impeachment. But here we sit.

A sweeping boycott has begun — targeting tech giants who participants believe are enabling President Trump and his immigration crackdown.

This is, I believe, the second time that the SAVE Act has gone up for a vote in the Senate, after being rightly defeated the first time. Why won’t this heinous bill die?? Y’all: CALL YOUR SENATORS to make sure that they vote NO on this monstrosity!

Oh great. The Nazis are exploring lasers as weapons. I swear to God they’re gonna make one in the shape of a Death Star just to “own the libs.” These stupid fucks.

Good. Raise it higher, every time.

Members of Congress reviewing the Epstein files appear to have been surveilled by DOJ. @jayapal.house.gov learned about it shortly before we spoke last night & explains what’s happening here. joycevance.substack.com/p/my-convers...

The so-called Save America Act will force 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates just to register to vote. Most do not have them ready. Turning paperwork into a barrier is a poll tax by another name. #HandsOffHerVote social.demcast.com/s/L9X3k1fQ

Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Random Olympics opinion: I want to watch more women’s hockey. This US-Switzerland game is barely 4 minutes in & I’m enthralled. It’s so skilled and fast-paced. I want to see it on more sports channels; I want to be able to buy tickets to games; and I want to support these awesome female athletes!

“I don’t know why we’re pretending that any of this is normal.” That statement cuts through the numbness and the feeling of being embroiled in constant chaos for me. This is moral and mental clarity.

Epstein survivors released an incredible ad during the Super Bowl.

I could not be more proud of all the U.S. athletes at the Olympics using their platforms to speak out against the hatred and violence of the Trump regime. We have a Team USA giving us pride in a moment our government is causing us so much pain and embarrassment.

Jeff Bezos' wedding last summer cost somewhere around $50M. That, alone, could have saved all 300 positions cut today at The Washington Post for a year. Of course, he wouldn't have to choose. He could do both because he's worth $250B, which is nearly the GDP of New Zealand.

As relevant as ever

It’s time to turn up the pressure on Republicans who are complicit in enabling the regime’s brutal lawlessness. We’re contacting voters in key states and connecting them with their GOP senators to demand ICE Out For Good.

No masks on cops. No masks on cops. No masks on cops. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

This account of what happened is sickening.

It is very interesting to me that so many of the ICE shooters responsible for the killings of peaceful protestors in MN are seasoned agency veterans. We can’t chalk this up simply to people being new and poorly trained. That’s not the pattern that’s emerging.

THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!

There are actually a lot of people in Minneapolis who’ve been afraid to leave their homes these past 3 weeks. So they haven’t left. And so they’re not working, grocery shopping, or getting medical care. This doesn’t get talked about enough.

The anthem we need

“Imagine how they lie when there’s no evidence to contradict them.” Watch this powerful message from Jon Stewart.

Our calls and emails are critical but it's also very important that we turn up the pressure on senators in public in their home states before the vote on DHS funding. We encourage you to plan creative, nonviolent, and lawful actions that honor the lives taken and highlight our demand to rein in ICE.

I’ve been thinking about the woman Alex Pretti was trying to help after ICE shoved her down. What’s it like to be her today? What is she feeling? How is she coping? Then I think about how may people are out of the reach of the cameras. In the prison camps. In hiding. All across the U.S.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

"This isn’t about immigration enforcement. This is straight-out fascism. ... They are using the mechanism of armed officers with masks who are beating up and killing citizens to create disruption, so they can use more force to eliminate the possibility they could be removed from office."

Remember when the unthinkable thing was that these guys were wearing masks and not showing us ID?

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Christi Noem should testify under oath in Congress and explain why she lied about the facts around the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

We are allowed to form opinions and jump to conclusions without all the evidence. We’re just regular civilians on social media. Government officials responsible for investigating deadly shootings should not be doing the same thing we are.

The goal of nonviolent civil resistance is not to convince the regime they're wrong. The goal of #NonviolentCivilResistance is to convince the people to work together to make it impossible for the regime to sustain itself. We aren't nonviolent for the regime. We're nonviolent for each other.

A doctor who witnessed the shooting submits a sworn declaration in federal litigation to halt ICE surge in MN: "I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind." and "The victim had at least three bullet wounds in his back." Read storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I cannot imagine the devastation this family is experiencing today. This statement is powerful and must be read.

So the “everyone should be armed” second amendment crowd is using the fact the a man was armed (maybe) as justification? Is this right?

It almost feels like this man comes from a different time - a time I remember in which public servants in America still actually cared about serving the public and about integrity.

This is a remarkable story. Worth a minute of your time to read it. “I was hit so hard with the fact that this man would not do this for me,” she said. www.startribune.com/detained-by-...

200+ UU colleagues are in #Minneapolis protesting ICE www.uuworld.org/articles/min...

Funny how the right is outraged at Fanone flipping off a congressman just days after celebrating a president flipping off a working American .

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith testifies to Congress: “I stand by my decisions as special counsel, including the decision to bring charges against President Trump. Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in criminal activity.”

Renee Good Vigil attendee: “American citizens are being shot in the street. This administration is not following court orders. They’re sending citizens out of the country. Are you waiting for them to knock on your door?” (From @channel5bluesky.bsky.social )

This is just sick. Adding it to the list of other absolutely sick behavior by ICE.

SEEING IS BELIEVING DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite. 📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported. DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.

This is a strong statement. It’s really good and important that cops are speaking out about this on behalf of the communities they work in.
