“TDS” is what MAGA yells when facts land and there’s nowhere left to hide. It works like a toddler with fingers in his ears. Criticize Trump, yell TDS, convo over. It’s pure Pavlovian reflex and easier than admitting they’re obsessed with an over-bronzed, low IQ, dementia patient

Let's be real here folks- these are called messaging votes. They did not affect the passage of the bill. They are done ALL THE TIME, with the permission of leadership to help win the next election. If it bugs you, then back a primary challenge but once we have a candidate then blue no matter who.

ICE isn't a rogue agency. It’s operating exactly as it was intended: to systematically target and inflict violence on immigrants and marginalized people. It must be abolished.

Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines. This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.

Sometimes it feels like we are a nation beholden to the unresolved daddy issues of scared little authoritarians like “freedom loving Patriot” Glenn Beck.

Q: Did you uncover evidence to prove Trump knew his claim the election was stolen was false? SMITH: Yes Q: And Trump claimed it was stolen while he privately acknowledged he lost? SMITH: Yes Q: Yet on the 5th anniversary of J6, Trump still promoted the stolen election theory on a govt webpage

"Given that the president's entire body appears to be one giant swollen bruise, do you have any concerns that the changes in air pressure on an international flight might cause him to explode like a rotted watermelon dropped off a building?"

A deadly virus with a mortality rate between 1% and 2% didn’t snap ’em out of their conspiracy theories. It difficult to imagine what kind of collision with reality it will take.

More than $2 million is coming to the Central Coast to restore and protect salmon and steelhead habitat through three local projects in Monterey County and San Luis Obispo County. Congratulations to the awardees!

Do not get distracted.

This is the only way. If Dems in the U.S. need a translation, it means cooperation, funding, and so-called bipartisanship are simply capitulation to tyranny.

On this day 53 years ago-Jan. 22, 1973-the Supreme Court ruled in the Roe v. Wade case, establishing a woman’s constitutional right to an abortion. That right existed until the 2022 Supreme Court ruling in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Org. case. Image: Lorie Shaull/Wikimedia Commons.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

Trump on his Greenland: Essentially, it’s total access. There’s no end — there’s no time limit... We're going to have all military access that we want... We’re going to not have to pay anything, other than the fact that we are building the Golden Dome. So literally what we had all this time.

This is so brutal. My heart is fucking broken for this kid.

KY’s @govandybeshear.bsky.social : “Trump’s speech was dangerous, disrespectful, and unhinged. Detached from the reality of what’s happening in 🇺🇸— You now understand why Canadians have stopped buying American products.”

The guy Trump’s ICE goons claim to have been looking for when they dragged a legal citizen out in the cold in his underwear was… already in prison. 🎪 www.thebulwark.com/p/target-of-...

www.nbcnews.com/politics/con... Yes 7 Democrats Yes like you..Upsetting news The Dems who voted are in red districts HENRY CUELLAR TX28 VICENTE GONZALES TX34 JARED GOLDEN ME02 TOM SOUZZI NY03 DON DAVIS NC01 GLUESENKAMP PEREZ WA03 LAURA GILLEN NY04 S1.2 trillion now to senate VERY UPSETTING

Trump has removed signs at George Washington’s house in Philadelphia that inform the public about the history of slavery and signs at Fort Sumter that inform the public that the fort is at risk due to climate change. Because history and science are like COVID: If you ignore them, they go away.

That went well. There's a lot of ocean in Japan. It actually goes all the way around the islands, it's amazing (/s). The ocean is a very windy place. For the past 15 years TEPCO could have been developing offshore wind farms.

YES YES YES

This is already the agreement. We can put troops there. We can do whatever we want, as long as we discuss it with them. He’s going to act like he is responsible for what already exists, and his flock will believe him. (H/T @atrupar.com )

It's been a really long day. What I posted on Mastodon this morning: Southeast PA. ICE is here now. 200 cars at York facility. ICE vehicles in our streets here today, this morning. Enormous Puerto Rican population, also many many various immigrants. Clients are freaking out and sending me photos.

100% Pro-Equality Champion It is my honor to announce I have earned a 100% score on the 2025 Equality California State Legislative Scorecard. Today and every day, we must continue to work to build a world that is healthy, just, and fully equal for all LGBTQ+ people.

"Stop calling ICE the Gestapo! ICE is nothing like the Gestapo. Now, let me innumerate all the many ways ICE is exactly like the Gestapo. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

And if you thought things weren't getting worse. The AP obtained a leaked ICE memo ordering agents they can FORCE ENTRY into homes using only an internal ICE “Warrant of Removal” (Form I-205) even WITHOUT a judge’s warrant. The sound u hear is the 4th Amendment being shredded

Demented propagandist Karoline Leavitt says European Leaders are giving her deranged boss raving reviews for his wordsalad rant. She literally exists to lie profusely for a criminal.

ICE-Gestapo have now changed policy to allow their murderous agents to illegally enter homes without a judicial warrant. I repeat once again, they aren’t law enforcement, they are a domestic fascist terrorist group that should’ve been abolished long ago.

We can already have troops there. We can already mine for minerals. Nothing will change, and he will claim victory. And his followers will believe him. Again. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Stop what you’re doing and read this whistleblower report. ICE has been training its agents that they don’t need a judicial warrant to break down your door - a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Since the Citizens United ruling 16 years ago, so many failings in our society are a direct result of corporations and billionaires buying our democracy. We have to overturn Citizens United to return power to the people, where it belongs.

This is why you apply pressure.

What a freaking worthless Speaker. The whole damn party is an endless disappointment, yet they remain our only hope. What's it going to take to shake them out of their stupor?

NEW: It appears that the Trump administration expects to lose the Tariff case. According to an anonymous source at CBP who sent me the below email, they’re already having meetings on how to refund the tariffs they’ve collected from importers - many American. 1/

how are journalists still this naive about Trump? His comments today about Greenland were clearly a threat

People are speculating the man seen in the video of Renee Good’s death trying to help was not a doctor. I spoke to him that day and he is indeed an internal medicine MD in Minneapolis but he isn’t currently interested in speaking to media.

Late to the game but he got there. Pressure works, people. Keep calling your reps and senators. Not another dime for these goons.

“People will soon be prosecuted for what they did. That’s probably breaking news.”Trump at WEF, again calling the 2020 election stolen. Trump and his people lost 60+ court cases, produced zero evidence, and burned millions in taxpayer dollars. It wasn’t stolen, he lost.

MAYOR FREY: “I never thought in a million years we would be invaded by our own federal government… That may be what happens in other countries, but it doesn’t happen here.”

Sixteen years ago, the Supreme Court decided that corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Iceland or Greenland.. or both? See, once you tolerate this, it gets worse. Keep your head on a swivel. He knows exactly what he is doing. Now folks began talking about Iceland. Naturally. First as a joke.. remember Greenland was one of those jokes?

I just introduced an amendment to hold Pam Bondi in civil contempt of Congress. Since August, she has been legally compelled by our bipartisan subpoena to release the full Epstein files. Without the files, we can't have a serious investigation. It's time she answer for her role in this cover up.

Crockett: "You only love enforcement when they're going after Black, brown, immigrants, that kind of folk. But on January 6, you didn't care about law enforcement."

‪Trump at Davos, referring to Greenland: We want a piece of ice. You can say yes, and we will be appreciative. Or you can say no - and we will remember. ‬
