$38 billion. That's what Trump is spending to turn warehouses into human holding facilities. Not on schools. Not on healthcare. Not on veterans. On warehousing humans. And they have the audacity to call it "safe and humane." www.bostonglobe.com/2026/02/12/m...

Pete Hegseth’s campaign against Mark Kelly is extraordinary. And this federal judge noticed. Judge Leon's ruling outlined the threat that Hegseth's efforts could pose to the constitutional liberties of all who have served our nation in uniform.

🚨BREAKING: An election-denying former Donald Trump campaign staffer who was subpoenaed by the FBI over his role in the attempt to steal the 2020 election is now taking credit for writing the sweeping voter suppression bill passed by the House Wednesday that could disenfranchise millions.

It's obvious why Trump wants us to just "move on". Not going to happen.

Stop me if you’ve heard this before: Trump’s White House is offering million-dollar donors special access to the President and official events — this time America’s 250th birthday. This latest pay-to-play arrangement undercuts already crumbling public trust.

Bravo!! President Zelenskyy has formally been nominated for the 2026 Nobel peace prize. Submitted by Professor Dag Oistein Endsjo. This is really going to piss off a certain someone.

Blumenthal on administrative warrants: "This is not a warrant. It's a permission slip. It's a green light from another ICE agent to go bash down a door, smash into a home, detain and arrest someone without a judge finding probable cause."

Just like with Brazil arresting their insurrectionists rather than re-electing them, other countries are holding their Epstein-tied politicians accountable far better than we do. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Ya’ll know who Alice H. Parker is? Well if you don’t ..let me tell you, whenever you turn on your heater you can thank this queen right here !! It was her patent that helped create central heating in homes and various buildings.

Walz says he made no concessions to the Trump regime: "Nothing has changed. The final agreement is that Minnesota will continue to do what we do, which is law enforcement."

Yesterday, I gave Pam Bondi the opportunity to apologize to the Epstein survivors for the DOJ’s handling of their personal information. Instead of doing that, she showed herself to be cruel, small, and to have an audience of one: Donald Trump.

Trump Tirade Over Bridge to Canada Backfires, Handing Democrats a 2026 Weapon His corrupt threat to block the opening of the Gordie Howe Bridge is about to become a big albatross around the necks of GOP candidates in pivotal Michigan.

Michael de Adder and David Parkins

TL:DR: Canada paid for ALL of the bridge construction but it will be cooperatively owned by both countries. Canada will toll to recover OUR costs to build it. US Billionaire, who owns the main old bridge with a monopoly on tolls, whined to President. President threatened opening of new bridge.

If there are still 3,000 ICE agents in Minneapolis, that’s 5 times the 600-member police force. People are afraid to leave home — even for groceries. No one should live in fear just to eat. #FeedMinneapolis is making sure families don’t go hungry. Chip in below — it's a crisis! #IceOut

I've been clear — I will not support more funding for ICE until there are new guardrails to rein in its lawless conduct. A continuing resolution on their current funding is merely more license for their current malfeasance. I'm a no on anything but real reform.

ProPublica spoke to kids detained in ICE’s Dilley detention center. How are these beautiful children in an unsafe, unsanitary prison camp and yet the wealthy and powerful child sexual predators in the Epstein files are still free? Support @propublica.org www.propublica.org/article/life...

Imagine a President bulldozing 1/3 of our Historic White House pocketing $300 million and that doesn’t even crack the top 100 most destructive, vile, disgusting things he’s done, yet here we are

Donald Trump is suing the IRS for $10 billion because a contractor illegally shared his tax returns. Do each of the thousands of taxpayers who saw their confidential tax information illegally given to DHS get $10 billion as well?

Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @redistrictingaction.org and tell your member of Congress to vote no: act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-saveact-cte

Attorney General Pam Bondi tells a member of a co-equal branch of government during a public hearing: “You don’t tell me anything, you washed-up loser lawyer.” The disdain for our own government is appalling. This administration is destroying our democracy.

@heathergtv has a response for Bondi 👏🏼 🤣 #CulverCity

WOW! A politician putting fiscal costs ahead of sexual assault survivors should rethink that before speaking. A survivor of childhood sexual assault spills her guts, and Sen Manka Dhingra’s response is about controlling costs. This is not how an advocate talks. @wadems.org @housedemocrats.wa.gov

NEWS: The House just voted to repeal Trump's Canadian tariffs that are raising prices for Americans. TIm Kaine and Rand Paul and I led the Senate effort to pass similar legislation—let's get it done!

Alex Vindman's website talks in depth about his dedication to the Constitution and public service and his courage in fighting abuse of power. Take a look and, if you can, donate and volunteer for his campaign. alexvindman.com

Florida desperately needs a Senator with integrity. Alex Vindman says he's "running for Senate to fix a system that has been rigged for the elites and fight for Florida’s hard-working families." He will serve all Floridians and stand up for what is right. Elect Alex Vindman U.S. Senate, Florida

My latest. I hope you read, consider and share.👇 The events of the last 24 hours must serve as a wake-up call for a federal judiciary that has grown too comfortable deferring to the executive branch and too slow to hold it accountable. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/two-...

Pam Bondi’s DOJ has released Epstein files with thousands of redactions to cover for abusers. Meanwhile, they have released the survivor’s names, personal information, addresses, and even nude photos of them — putting them and their families’ safety in jeopardy. Shameful.

Tina Smith lays it plain.

For the second time, President Trump and his Justice Department have failed in their blatant political prosecutions. @crow.house.gov — and the rest of our congressional colleagues — deserve better. I continue to stand in this fight with them.

Thank you to the Bloomington Police Department and Chief Hodges for their work keeping us safe. The fact that the individual arrested was responsible for conducting background checks on new ICE hires should concern every Minnesotan.

Turns out an op-ed isn't as dangerous as Marco Rubio alleges. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

If this is the “greatest economy in the history of the world,” as Donald Trump claims, God help us.

Why didn’t Bondi prosecute Epstein and Maxwell during her tenure as Florida’s attorney general from 2011-2019? She’s blaming Merrick Garland. Why didn’t she?

At least two dozen ICE employees and contractors have been charged with crimes since 2020 and the wrongdoing includes patterns of violence, sexual abuse and corruption, a review by The Associated Press found.

After a year of procedural gimmicks, the House is FINALLY set to vote on a resolution to undo Trump’s idiotic tariffs on Canada. The Senate passed my legislation to do so last year, and now it’s time for the House to do the same. youtube.com/shorts/geD9D...

I’m proud that 20 years after the first call to 211 Virginia, it has fielded millions of calls and connected people with crucial resources from shelter, disaster assistance, addiction and health care resources, legal representation, and more. richmond.com/opinion/colu...

We have an update on the Liam Ramos family, and it isn’t good. The family is in hiding, and Liam is waking up in the middle of the night screaming for his daddy.

A simple question to ask Pam Bondi at her congressional hearing today: Why did Todd Blanche conduct the Ghislaine Maxwell proffer? The former Trump criminal defense lawyer, who hadn’t worked on the Epstein associate’s prosecution, was nonetheless the one who personally met with her.
