They came for the Latinos, but I'm not Latino, so I remained silent. They came for the Somalis but I'm not Somali so I remained silent. Then they came for the Jews ... we all know how the rest went. #ICEisTheNewGestapo

ICE drags woman from car in Minneapolis… youtube.com/shorts/fVJqm...

Whew, this new CNN poll is brutal.... 58% say first year was a failure. Net approval on key issues: - Venezuela: -16 - Immigration: -16 (was +3 in Mar) - Economy: -21 - Foreign affairs: -21 - Job approval: -22 (39-61) - Tariffs: -25 (new low) - Healthcare: -27 (new low) www.cnn.com/2026/01/16/p...

Last year, ICE shifted focus away from the agriculture and hospitality industries—the low-hanging fruit for immigration enforcement—because the raids were hurting business interests. What we’re seeing now is largely a performance of cruelty to satisfy Trump’s base.

When Trump desperately needed people to vouch for him with skeptical evangelicals in the 2016 primary, David was there to do it for him at the Christian Broadcasting Network.

The first sale of Venezuelan oil went to a guy who donated $6 million to Trump. The proceeds are now in a bank in Qatar.

Do any Republicans in Congress care about Trump grabbing oil from Venezuela, handing it off to his megadonors to sell on the international market to whoever, depositing the proceeds in foreign bank accounts, then spending the money however he sees fit with no input from Congress?

"There comes a point where we have to start questioning whether or not he’s actually aware of what’s happening around him & the harm he’s doing. It’s similar to historical figures like Nero or Caligula. Their madness took over & they started doing wildly destructive things. Trump is in that place."

I told everyone this was their “plan” when people started talking about legislation. The plan is Trump told credit card company to lower rates by Jan 20 and that’s it. Just another stunt to fool people into thinking they’re doing something. bsky.app/profile/atru...

So…the whole world, then?

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.

Also DHS policy requires agents to provide medical attention as soon as practicable following the use of deadly force www.dhs.gov/sites/defaul...

This does not look “defensive” to me, at all (left arm is braced against Good’s vehicle) as he aims his weapon www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

Important result for my partners at @whistleblower.law. Kaiser Permanente has agreed to pay $556 million to resolve False Claims Act litigation re improper Medicare Advantage risk-adjustment practices. It's the biggest case ever of its kind, buoyed by DOJ intervention.Congrats to @whistleblower.law!

Stephen Miller's invasions are utterly atrocious but they're also renewing civil society in every city he invades.

I'm seeing more people use the phrase "American carnage" for Stephen Miller's invasions and I think that's a really great hijacking of his term. He keeps trying to claim the chaos in MN is designed to prevent MSP from turning into Mogadishu but ... it's beginning to look like Mogadishu.

I beg of you, somebody. I am not competent to write the retort to this, but it really invites a response. And yes, I would love if @georgetakei.bsky.social schooled him.

France’s finance minister has warned his US counterpart Scott Bessent that any move to seize Greenland would amount to a “crossed line”, endangering Europe’s economic relationship with Washington. Roland Lescure said that he delivered a similar message to the US Treasury secretary in Washington

“…it’s striking how easily conservatives, stewing over insults to white people for five years, have singled out a group of white women as the enemy … In the right-wing imagination, these women are acting like harpies when they’re supposed to be helpmeets.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/16/o...

NEW: A federal judge today blasted Secretaries Noem and Rubio, saying they led an 'unconstitutional conspiracy' to violate the free speech of foreign students with pro-Palestinian views. w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social @hassankanu.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

NEW: In 4 days, records of Trump’s first term will become publicly available via NARA. Trump’s gatekeeper to the archives is Deputy AG Todd Blanche — a vestige of days as Trump’s personal lawyer. Now a watchdog group is urging him to relinquish that role www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

Joe Rogan is telling his millions of listeners the Trump admin is acting like Nazis. Shawn Ryan is telling his millions of listeners the White House is actively protecting pedophiles. Meanwhile, the paid GOP shills on Twitter want you to believe Trump is as popular as ever.

Imagine for a second Biden or Obama did this. Hannity would stroke out on live television, and the ghost of Rush Limbaugh would rise to lead the charge against communism

"Privately, several executives concede they have little appetite for kowtowing to Trump. But advisers say a pragmatic playbook has emerged: show up, make a promise grand enough to flatter the president, and then do as little as possible until his attention shifts elsewhere."

So damn petty. 🤦

Imagine being friends with this dude.

NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

ICE isn’t making rare mistakes. This is the point. When an agency can grab people first and sort out rights later, if they bother at all, everyone is at risk. Citizen or not.

Love it!

Show me your papers, comrade

To be clear, Miller views any and all dissent as a national security threat that must be dismantled.

I’ve been a nurse for 40 years and I’ve never heard anyone describe internal bleeding as “internal bleeding to the torso” except this ignorant, pathological liar— doctor’s name a specific region. 👇🏽

A must-read about the tech oligarchs that support an imperialist approach to Greenland, motivated by its resources and large land mass for all manner of exploitation and experimentation, and not subject to European-style laws and regulations.

When Trump says things that are stupid, false, and traitorous, it’s worth remembering that Epstein emails indicate Epstein helped Russia blackmail him. Trump is compromised by Russia

What too many people refuse to admit is while they search around frantically for signs that Trump will help Ukraine, what has really happened is that Trump has protected Putin while the Russians have criminally attacked Ukrainian civilian life. This foolishness must stop now.

This is becoming pathological

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now. If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

Good morning 😊 🦋🌊💙💪

From the ICE 🧊 list.

His 6 month old stopped breathing! HIS SIX MONTH OLD STOPPED BREATHING! A father was getting his kids out of the neighborhood because it was unsafe & ICE threw flash bangs & tear gas at his car with children & a baby inside! His 6 month old stopped breathing & all the children were hospitalized!
