Our federal taxes should be going toward making health care affordable for Americans rather than paying ICE agents $50,000 bonuses.

This is one of the most unsettling three-paragraph sequences I've read in my life, and I've spent two decades reading the most deranged people on the planet.

“An estimated 3,500 soldiers from NATO countries died in Afghanistan. The United States suffered the most losses in absolute terms…But per capita, Denmark suffered even more severe losses, burying 43 soldiers in a population, at the time, of about 5.5 million.” www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

“Nostalgia is not a strategy," Canada's prime minister said at Davos. But in the U.S. it's become a powerful political tool for GOP candidates promising to help the Trump “restore” America. Read today's Forecast for the impact on this year's elections👇

Even though they subscribe to Donald Trump's Jan. 6 lies, House Republicans don't think senators deserve special payouts for having been targets of a criminal investigation.

Delusional!

As Trump's poll numbers plumb new depths—including record disapproval ratings—and polls are showing huge spikes in support for Democrats on generic ballots, he posts this.

‘With Donald Trump’s actions in Greenland, Minneapolis, and Venezuela, a foreign enemy could not invent a better chain of events to wreck the standing of the United States.’ always read @vermontgmg.bsky.social:

A new twist on neighborhood watch is taking shape in Minneapolis and other cities under occupation by federal immigration agents: ICE Watch. The idea is to make sure witnesses are present for any immigration arrest, to catch incidents on video, and to protest—or at least get the detainee’s name.

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

BREAKING: President Donald Trump’s plane, Air Force One, is returning to Joint Base Andrews after the flight experienced a minor electrical issue, the White House says. Trump will board another aircraft upon his return and continue on with his trip to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

Here's Carney's full address; the English version begins at 1:25 and ends at 17:15, after which there's Q&A. Received a rare standing 0; provides a stark counterpoint (and counterforce) to Trumpism. Well worth watching, imo. www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/b6d0d2c...

🇨🇦PM Carney just schooled our cowardly European leaders at #Davos. This speech was clearly aimed at them: "We must actively take on the world as it is, not wait around for a world we wish to be." "What does it mean for middle powers to live the truth? First it means naming reality..." (🧵1/6)

To your excellent list of conditions Dems should impose on funding DHS before the Jan. 30 deadline, please add: Stop detaining refugees with pending green card applications and shipping them to Texas. That's a violation of international law. @indivisible.org

The political ground is shifting on ICE. Your own Dem rep or senator may not have caught up yet. Now - before the 1/30 funding deadline - is the time to push.
