amazing

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

From @wired.com: “Federal records reveal ICE is secretly expanding into 150+ facilities across nearly every state — many near schools, medical offices, and places of worship… DHS asked the General Services Administration to hide lease listings and bypass normal procedures…”🤔

JD Vance was just ruthlessly booed at the Olympics during the Opening Ceremony when he was shown on the screen. But you would never know by watching the broadcast on NBC.

Great to see Donald Trump — one of the most prolific child rapists of all time — say a few words at the Prayer Breakfast this morning

NOT GOOD: CNBC just reported that under Donald Trump, layoffs in January were the highest since 2009!

Paris prosecutors raid the French offices of Elon Musk’s X as part of an investigation into spreading child pornography and deepfakes.

NEW: A growing choir of conservatives is urging Senate Republicans to kill the filibuster to pave the way for bills that would impose strict photographic identification requirements on the right to vote, potentially disenfranchising millions of eligible, legal voters.

Pirro: "You bring a gun into the District, you mark my words, you're going to jail. I don't care if you have a license in another district and I don't care if you're a law abiding law owner somewhere else. You bring a gun into this District, count on going to jail. And that makes all the difference"

Apparently there was a city meeting in Hutchins, Texas, tonight. Hutchins is the location of DHS's newly announced 10,000-person concentration camp. What I've been told is that city officials were unanimously and adamantly opposed to it. Unfortunately, I'm seeing this nowhere online.

Fulton County officials say they're filing a federal lawsuit challenging the FBI's seizure of 2020 election records in Georgia.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

From @theathletic.com: Tuskegee University men’s basketball coach Benjy Taylor has retained civil rights attorneys after being handcuffed and escorted off the court following Saturday's loss at Morehouse College. nyti.ms/4td48hV

Everyone knows Trump is robbing us, blind and putting us at risk.Yet.Nobody stops him every day. Everyone in this country knows.

Portugal’s conservatives back left-wing candidate to avoid a far-right president Center-right leaders are taking pains to publicly reject the ultranationalist contender ahead of the country’s Feb. 8 vote. [If only American conservatives had this much integrity]😐 www.politico.eu/article/port...

Just want to point out that this is Suffolk County...

There’s a highly classified whistleblower complaint about Tulsi Gabbard that’s been held up and not sent to Congress for 8(!) months And a former aide to Gabbard runs her agency’s watchdog office & she got rid of the top attorney in that watchdog office www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

I was a White House ethics lawyer. I used to advise people not to even accept a free cup of coffee from someone who had interests before them. And staff followed those rules. I can’t even find the words to describe the scale of Trump’s corruption here.

...and again...

Exclusive: A U.S. official has alleged wrongdoing by U.S. spy chief Tulsi Gabbard in a complaint that is so highly classified it has sparked months of wrangling over how to share it with Congress, according to people familiar with the matter.

Reported from San Antonio area news -- There's a #Measles outbreak at the #Dilley detention center where #LiamRamos was being held. #LiamConejoRamos is back home but there are still 400 other children (1200 total detainees) still at the facility. #MedSky #IDSky www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

ICE is no longer an immigration enforcement agency. It has become Trump’s domestic army. If my “conservative” colleagues truly believe in small government, they should join us in demanding an end to masked federal agents terrorizing communities across this country.

Olivia Dean during her #GRAMMYs acceptance speech for Best New Artist: “I’m up here as the granddaughter of an immigrant, I’m a product of bravery and I think those people deserve to be celebrated.”

"Four hours after his arrest, he was taken to a hospital emergency room in Edina with swelling and bruising around his right eye and bleeding. A CT scan revealed at least eight skull fractures and life-threatening hemorrhages in at least five areas of his brain..." apnews.com/article/immi...

I'm 77. I'm not gonna go out in the street and walk for miles. But I have never been so proud of my fellow citizens who would be walking in my place. We ARE the people.

"Since March 2025, many hundreds of families with children who are minors have been detained in federal immigration custody, with more than 1,700 children in custody since family detention centers reopened. Many have been detained for long periods of time, some for nearly half a year."

When I saw Liam at the Dilley Detention Center, something was clearly wrong. He was lethargic, not eating, and depressed. Thankfully, Liam and his dad are back home in Minneapolis with their family. No child should ever endure this. We will not stop until this cruelty ends.

Keith Ellison: "The president is openly promoting authoritarianism and tyranny. That is what's happening in America. Most of us thought we would never see it, but here it is right in front of our eyes."

JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate. Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards. With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43. Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range. And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.

Congratulations to my friend and our newest State Senator from Tarrant County, Taylor Rehmet! I met Taylor years ago through labor organizing. Don’t tell us what can’t be done in Texas. When we show up #TexasTough, we change the game. Today we proved what we’ve known all along: Texas is in play.

BREAKING: Democrat Christian Menefee wins special election for Texas U.S. House seat, narrowing GOP's slim majority.

So weird that the guy they chose to direct the Melania Bribe-Umentary was a Me Too-canceled has been pictured with Epstein and another Epstein-backed child sex trafficker who also *killed himself* in prison So many coincidences!

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

The Democratic National Committee is entering the 2026 midterm election year at a staggering financial disadvantage, trailing the Republican National Committee by nearly $100 million, according to new federal financial disclosures.

I want to hear at least ONE Democratic leader talk like their ass is on fire about ICE’s electronic surveillance of people committing no crimes...and the “nice little database” they’re bragging about building on Americans. That’s the emergency. Anyone??

BREAKING: the average IQ of people watching the Superbowl halftime show doubled with Tommy Tuberville’s announcement that he won’t be watching

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

“I was raped three times a day and I wasn’t the only girl. It was a conveyor belt of abuse.” #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

MAJOR UPSET ALERT: Democrat Taylor Rehmet has just been projected the winner of the Texas SD9 special election — flipping a district that went Trump +17 and hasn’t elected a Democrat since 1991. Trump personally endorsed Leigh Wambsganss and spent days hyping this race… and still lost.

It should not take a court order to get a toddler out of a prison.

Always fascinating to watch the Long-tail Tit using the garden feeders.

💥💥KABOOM 💥💥 MAGAt Mike loses another seat!! 217-213!!! apnews.com/article/cong...

The ICE terrorists need to be stopped. This cannot be sustained. It weakens our nation more every day this racist madness continues.

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

Buttigieg on Fox News: "When you see an American woman opening the door to her home and on her doorstep finds half a dozen federal agents in tactical gear that is more tricked out than what I would take outside the wire in Afghanistan -- I think most people get that that is wrong."

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.
