More than you can count on your hands and toes. Donald Trump is racist. Full stop. Being racist is wrong and evil. That is a moral conclusion based on values not a partisan political slur, which is how his racism is usually treated.

First we have to ensure there is an election.

ICE continues to escalate/ abc7ny.com/post/ice-min...

Trump and Bondi have said houses of worship are so sacred journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested by Federal agents last night for doing their constitutionally protected jobs - reporting the news and yet it’s fine for ICE to invade places of worship:

This just in from Amnesty International: "U.S. authorities must immediately release journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort. Journalism is not a crime. Reporting on protests is not a crime. Arresting journalists for their reporting is a clear example of an authoritarian practice."

Trump will literally do anything to distract feom ICE, Minneapolis, Epstein and the expnomy: www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Italy should deny entry to ICE agents, they can’t be trusted, more likely to cause harm than do good based on what we’ve seen and know about how they treat people in their custody: “US ICE agents going to Winter Olympics sparks anger in Italy - www.reuters.com/sports/us-ic...

The Admin is now saying they are willing to stop killing innocent people if MN turns over its voter rolls - which has nothing to do with Immigration enforcement or fraud.

This is Trump’s legacy - MN encapsulates the chaos, pain and abuse of power against innocent people and our constitution. We cannot let this stand. If you voted for Trump he is doing this in YOUR name.

The Star Tribune reports that federal agents "attempted to order local police from the scene" where a man was shot and killed by feds this morning, but Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara refused and "instructed his officers to preserve the scene."

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

This is Trump’s America, enabled by a feckless GOP.

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

ICE officers are publicly stating that Renee Good was killed not because an officer was threatened but because they were mad at her for not instantly following every order issued. The new ICE threat: "Have you not learned? This is why we killed that lesbian bitch." newrepublic.com/post/205189/...

Shame on Megyn Kelly for suggesting a kind of permission structure for Epstein !. www.mediaite.com/media/news/w...

Epstein Alleged in Emails That Trump Knew of His Conduct:”In one email from April 2011, Mr. Epstein told Ms. Maxwell, “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump.” He added that an unnamed victim “spent hours at my house with him” www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...

NJ voters: keep on turning out to the Polls today! Some voter suppression BS going on in with bomb threats to Democratic precincts The threats have now been officially determined to be NON CREDIBLE. Voting is perfectly safe, it's a beautiful day, make your choices known!

Trump was interviewed for over 70 minutes for "60 Minutes", but less than 30 minutes was shown when the show aired.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court permanently BLOCKS the administration from implementing part of Executive Order requiring documentary proof of citizenship on the federal voter registration application. A BIG VICTORY for our clients--DNC, DGA, DSCC, DCCC, Sen Schumer and Leader Jeffries--and all voters!

Trump has crossed a red-line no other president has by ordering the DOJ to target his perceived foes. Tish James bravely did her job, Trump is abusing his power. Here is her powerful response: x.com/NewYorkState...

Saying prayers for Charlie Kirk and his loved ones. Also pray we stand together as Americans against political violence.

The GOP has allowed him to neuter Congress, which is part of why they are so afraid of a free and fair election in 2026 which would allow citizens to vote to take their power back.

“When a leader has no substantive policies to heal a nation’s wounds, he opens new ones with the sword of state violence.”

Trump is defunding public safety: $158 million cut from gun-violence prevention grants $300 million cut from Community Violence Intervention grants. Over $800 million cut in total from DOJ programs funding more than 500 organizations nationwide substack.com/@karenfinney...

Newsom: We got here because the President is struggling. We got here because the President is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.

We’ll be talking about the latest - real talk!

I joined Symone Sanders, Michael Steele and Alicia Menendez to discuss Donald Trump’s defense of Ghislaine Maxwell’s prison transfer and how Democratic governors like Kathy Hochul, JB Pritzker and Gavin Newsom are fighting back against Texas’ redistricting scheme. youtube.com/watch?v=PHNt...

More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban. Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.”

Juneau officials are asking residents in the Mendenhall Valley’s glacial outburst flood zone to evacuate ahead of this year’s flood, which could come in early August.

Trump is now saying the whole Jeffrey Epstein situation is a hoax - in effect he’s saying the women who’ve come forward were lying. Keep up the pressure, he’s more unhinged than ever.
