Jack Smith: "President Trump was charged because the evidence established that he willfully broke the very laws that he took an oath to uphold. Grand juries in two separate districts reached this conclusion based on his actions, as alleged in the indictments they returned."

Local news Fox9 reports: ICE detains Minnesota city worker, a snow plow driver, and transfers him to detention facility in Texas. Where he remains. "He had every federal authorization to be here," public works director in interview. hat tip: @longtimehistory.bsky.social

What do these companies have in common? -Cigna -Comcast -General Mills -Allstate -Marriott -Hilton -Walmart -Amazon -Microsoft -Meta All promised after January 6, 2021 to stop funding lawmakers who tried to overturn the 2020 election. And all have broken that promise.

We refused to stop trump's lawlessness at home and now he kidnaps foreign leaders. This is what happens when you don't hold a malignant narcissist accountable. Nothing is sacred to him except power and money. This is not defense. It is theft. Refuse the lies. Name it. #MaduroKidnapping

CICERO, IL — Trump’s ICE goons pepper spray into a family’s car and hits a 1 year old baby girl.

Methinks Americans meant it when we said “NO KINGS”!

Democratic women have made history tonight: Abigail Spanberger will be the first female governor of Virginia. Mikie Sherrill will be the first female Democratic governor of New Jersey. I’m looking forward to seeing these strong, dedicated leaders deliver a bright future for their states. 🎉

Well, if a lunatic tweeted it, then it must be true!

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 74 out of the last 86 days. They have worked 12 days in 3 months. Epstein Shutdown.

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation

Democrats need to hold the line until ACA subsidies are restored. Millions of hardworking Americans will lose their health care in January if they aren't.

Nearly 20 DACA recipients & dozens more immigrant youth have been snatched from their families and detained by immigration agents in recent months.

This is what it looks like when ICE violates our First Amendment rights.

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys. Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman. There is no justification for this. None.

“Do you acknowledge reality?” “No, i don’t.”

Happy #Caturday with old gentleman Weezer and orange cats Pippin and Marigold.

Trump says he’s ended 7-10 wars. But he started these: 1) War on public tv & radio 2) War on education 3) War on vaccines & medical research 4) War on diversity, equality, inclusion 5) War on a woman’s right to choose 6) War on free & fair elections 7) War on immigrants 8) War on the poor 9)…

Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt sends these little emails out regularly. I am on his email list since I have repeatedly expressed my concerns about his craven adherence to Trump’s wishes. He always has a ridiculous mini-survey at the end of his spiels. I answered, “No.”

ICE Raids Alabama Construction Site, Wrongfully Detains and Drags U.S. Citizen from Workplace.

Oh my… Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell just corrected Trump’s math on national television, live, and called out his disinformation.

Family pets are being left behind at Southern California shelters as their families face deportation. At Carsom Animal Care Center, dogs like Bruce and Coco are quiet, confused, and up for adoption. Shelter staff say they've seen emotional goodbyes as families forced to leave the U.S.

THIS IS NOT NORMAL: A U.S. citizen and veteran told ICE who he was. They broke his window. Dragged him out. Detained him anyway. It didn’t matter that he served this country. It didn’t matter that he belonged here. The truth didn’t matter. Only domination did.

While others are writing memoirs and playing it safe, Justice Jackson is writing history—one fearless dissent at a time.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Kristi Gnome tends her dark garden void of flowers, overrun with weeds and poisonous vines.

Are we great yet?

🚨🚨🚨 IT GETS WORSE 😳 "Kristi Noem didn’t authorize FEMA’s deployment of Urban Search and Rescue teams until Monday, more than 72 hours after the flooding began, multiple sources told CNN." Story: www.cnn.com/2025/07/09/p...

Breaking: per FEMA sources Kristi Noem was responsible for THREE DAY DELAY in deploying search-and-rescue in Texas Fire her. Blood on her hands.

At a doctor’s office — with no warrants, masked, no ID 😳 What are we doing? 🇺🇸

They're now using the social security notification system to push their propaganda. Just got this.

pretty weird how there's always billion dollars just lying around whenever ICE needs concentration camps but there's never any money when children need healthcare or a simple school lunch. oh well just one of those things I guess

Well worth the read…but depressing as hell.

Einstein warned we can’t solve crises with the same thinking that created them. Yet here we are: a burning planet, deepening inequality, and creeping authoritarianism, all under two parties funded by corporate money. #immigration #authoritarianism #climatecrisis open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

A bright spot in my world.

Josh Hawley never cared…

All it would take is for a couple more GOP Senators to have the courage of Sen. John McCain to walk up to the podium and give a flippant thumb down to this BIG Beeyootiful Bill and the medical care of millions Americans would be saved (at least temporarily). But they’re nothing but gutless wonders.
