we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

There are a growing number of reports of agents impersonating construction workers, delivery drivers & anti-ICE activists, heightening fears in the state. That's deceptive & unconstitutional, because they use trickery to get around warrant & consent protections.

Around the world, politicians and businessmen are resigning from their positions because of the Epstein Files. Except in the United States. Here: Zero shame, zero consequences. We need resignations, investigations, impeachments, and punishments now. Should have been years ago.

Homan has changed nothing

Republicans are moving quickly to pass a bill requiring voters to show proof of citizenship both to register and at the polls ahead of the 2026 midterm elections — a move that experts warn could disenfranchise millions of Americans. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The president of the United States had his DOJ raid the Fulton County election office and seized ballots. This is clearly a dry run for 2026. Yet, this is treated by too many in legacy media as normal. I founded Democracy Docket in 2020 because you deserve better. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Arresting journalists. Seizing ballots. Murdering protesters. Detaining children. It’s time to decide what your red line is.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Meanwhile: Nursing home moguls successfully bribed the president to do away with a regulation that increases staffing to prevent neglect of patients. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/27/u...

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS. ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion. This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

just a reminder that we aren’t even seeing the worst of what is happening in Minneapolis from someone detailed at the Whipple Federal Building yesterday

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

Since President Donald Trump took office, the Park Service, an agency charged with preserving American history, has changed how its website describes key moments from slavery to Jim Crow.

The same folks who screamed 'tyranny' over wearing a paper mask for 20 minutes at Walmart while we drowned in COVID patients now cheer for policies that'll permanently gut American prosperity and drag our standard of living back decades.

It's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

Lansing, MI 4/5/25

Millions will die as a result of Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s barbaric and obscene - and illegal - decision to shut down USAID.

Happy February to all those who still celebrate.

This is a national emergency:

One of my fourth graders asked a friend if he and his family wanted to live at his house since they are scared of the cold men coming to their house. The cold men are ICE. Kids may not understand it all right now, but they are listening.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Climate Dad 1.5C is dead. 2C all but inevitable without an immediate end to fossil fueled capitalism. We’re gonna lose everything. Anyone denying the evidence of their own eyes is either bankrolled by the fossil fuel industry, or is having their gullibility exploited by someone who is.

I’m grateful to have grown up with Mr. Rogers’s Neighborhood, Schoolhouse Rock, Reading Rainbow. They shaped my worldview and perspective in a positive way that gave me hope for humanity and civility as a collective community and country. To see that shattered by MAGA and Trump is heartbreaking 😞

Have to wonder if the media has seen any of this? 🤔

Ha ha nice work nyt

Every time I read the local news and see a teacher who was awarded a $250 grant for her classroom, I understand that she spent hours of her own time applying for it. Writing it. Going through a submission process. For $250. For her classroom…

Pete Buttigieg has been meeting with prominent Michigan Democrats as he weighs his political future. He’s reportedly considering running for Michigan governor in 2026 or president in 2028. Many are urging him to enter the crowded 2026 race to replace Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who is term limited.

"The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom." - Isaac Asimov

Sunday Thought: Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey was the biggest advocate on Expanding Medicare to include Dental/Vision/Hearing. Now he's no longer in Congress. 😢💔

Amid the backdrop that more than a dozen members of Trump's Cabinet are billionaires, a reminder that this is what happened to income inequality in this country once the tax rate for top earners was slashed after 1980. Trickle down does not work and top earners' priority is themselves.

Our institutions don’t defend themselves, we do. Don't be distracted by Trump's chaotic appointee picks, focus because there's a long fight ahead.

So, Americans let Elon Musk buy the USA & now he gets to run it?

Why did the non-binary prospector head out west? There was gold in them/their hills.

Here's your daily reminder that bookstores keep the love of reading alive — but they also keep neighborhoods beautiful. They are places to gather, to celebrate stories, to find community. Please do your holiday shopping at your local independent bookstore, if you are lucky enough to still have one.

A graphic depiction helps make clear that Trump has no “mandate.” One of the narrowest popular vote wins in history.

This needs to be sent far and wide.
