Federal agents hurled tear gas at people on a busy Logan Square street, outside a grocery store and near an elementary school. Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

He’s foaming at the mouth to go full Gestapo.

Spot on.

"I think in a free country we should be able to post onto the internet, 'hey, there are masked agents on Broadway and Vine and not have the government or the tech oligarchs prevent us from doing that.' Shame on you, Tim Cook." @radiofreetom.bsky.social joins @timmiller.bsky.social:

No one asked for this

Meiselas: Another critical reason MAGA Mike is telling Republicans that the House is officially closed is because he’s trying to avoid swearing in Democratic Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva.. She would be the 218th signature on the Epstein discharge petition.

Here's a sad statistic: Stevie Ray Vaughan was on the planet for 13,092 days. As of today, it's been exactly 13,092 days since he died. Tomorrow, he will have been gone longer than he was here. Today would have been his 71st birthday. Did you ever see him live? RIP Stevie Ray!

Remember your oath. Your duty is to the U.S. Constitution, not to a man. That duty will be tested. And when it is, you must decide: Are you a servicemember who stands with honor, integrity, and country or an amoral mercenary, carrying out the whims of a tyrant? #NoKings

Found a cockroach at the Capitol this week, but no House Republicans.

IF ANY CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY SIGNS THIS RADICAL AGREEMENT, THEY'LL LOSE BILLIONS IN STATE FUNDING — INCLUDING CAL GRANTS — INSTANTLY. CALIFORNIA WILL NOT BANKROLL SCHOOLS THAT SELL OUT THEIR STUDENTS, PROFESSORS, RESEARCHERS, AND SURRENDER ACADEMIC FREEDOM.

An American President is intentionally hurting Americans to score cheap political points. This is not normal.

Literally what Dems are trying to prevent. Who’s ready to be full-time, 24/7 caregivers for their ailing parents?

BREAKING: A federal judge finds that there is evidence Kilmar Abrego was VINDICTIVELY PROSECUTED. The judge GRANTS Abrego's motion for discovery and a hearing, and the government must now PROVE it did not vindictively prosecute Mr. Abrego. 1/

It’s no surprise the men taking these jobs are hateful, weak, & insecure. Are they at home body slamming the women in their lives? Has anyone thought about that?

Fat Satan has a healthcare plan — in about two weeks. 🙄

“Fuck them kids.” That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other. abc7chicago.com/post/ice-chi...

The Billionaires Have Been Sucking the Rest of Us Dry Since 1989—And It’s Worse Than You Think The 905 billionaires in the U.S. hold a combined $7.8 trillion in wealth, giving those at the very top political influence and power that undermines our democracy while working people scrape to get by.

Why can’t America have Universal Healthcare like every other advanced country in the world?! 🤬

Republicans have “demands” too - increase health care costs for Americans and fund Trump’s lawlessness.

Absolutely bizarre. Trump takes credit for a judge blocking HIS OWN PLAN to cut $34 million in funding for counterterrorism in New York.

Same guy who declared bankruptcy 6 times shut down the U.S. government 4 times in 5 years of being President. They wanted him to run the government like his businesses and that’s exactly what he’s doing.

Trump is screwing his own supporters worst with his shutdown. It is not about Democrats wanting federal funding of healthcare for undocumented immigrants- that is illegal apart from emergency room heroics - it is about protecting affordable healthcare for all!

Rep Clark has called out Mike Johnson on both his lie that dems are seeking to "give free healthcare to non citizens" & for the gop refusing to show up to work as the gop fight to cut programs like medicaid. In Louisiana, 64% of all births & 54% of all children are covered by medicaid. #Pinks

In the first quarter of 2025, farm bankruptcies increased by 95% Remember: the policies leading to bankruptcy are purposeful. Our food supply is in danger…there is no better way to bring a country to its knees than having control of its food supply.

NEW: ICE is planning to hire a team of nearly 30 people to surveil social media 24/7, build dossiers on people, and flag them for arrest and deportation. @dell.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-so...

Fired for displaying a pride flag, followed by a citation of the Constitution.

History has many painful lessons.

Talarico: if you read the new testament, Jesus doesn't spend most of his time preaching or teaching or even praying. He spends most of his time healing the sick. Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

The man who is responsible for adding $2.4 trillion to the deficit over 10 years, and who is responsible for allocating $75 billion to kidnapping citizens, is taunting U.S. citizens by threatening to shutdown safety net programs. It’s time people. Courage over comfort.

Warren: "Knock 15 million people off their coverage, drive up the cost for everyone else, close rural hospitals -- that's the Republican plan, because you know what the real heart of it was? They gave away a trillion dollars to the billionaires. That was the part that matters to them."

Q: "What makes you think that he will negotiate anything? What make you think that he and Republicans will cave to you?" House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY): "Public sentiment. At the end of the day, the public knows that Donald Trump and Republicans have shut the federal government down."

On Monday, RFK posted a rambling video on the HHS X account showing a series of graphs and directly stating that vaccines have had minimal impact on human health and saving lives. Today, in response, we brought our own graphs. We will not let his dangerous nonsense go unanswered.

Already understaffed and now further diminished, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency is scrambling to investigate a spate of cyber attacks. The lapse of the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act has made it even harder.
