She’s making it happen, y’all. @jasmineforus.bsky.social is activating non-voters just like she said she would. “55% of the people that showed up on day one don’t normally vote in a primary. In fact, 20% of those voters were first-time voters.” 💥

Trump wasn't elected in a vacuum. A horrible person became president twice because horrible people kept voting for him.

Ice is *slowly* melting.

Hey friends. I'm not ever going to be able articulate satisfactorily how much I appreciate my community here.This post will have to do.

I urge you to stop what you're doing and watch Alysa Liu's free skate from yesterday. I have never seen anything like this. I understand why sports writers are born now. I have never seen anyone as free from the burdens of this world as this pierced Oakland girl spinning to Donna Summers.

Someone actually said "I wasn't brave" for posting about Norman Rockwell's painting "Freedom of Speech" and its inspiration: FDR's "Four Freedoms." WTF? Here are the Four Freedoms - FDR's and Rockwells, titles in ALT text:

New: A comedian set up a fake ICE tip line as a joke. Then 100 calls flooded in: neighbors ratting on neighbors, a teacher reporting a kindergartener. Fans say the viral TikToks revealed deportation's "banality of evil." Conservatives say he should be in prison wapo.st/4kM4qbF

If it wasn't for that legal dept, Kia Sorento would be a killer Star Wars name.

i've decided not to listen to the audio of a teacher reporting a kindergartender because frankly I don't want to become the person that that event would turn me into. but one thing I hope we are collectively coming to grips with is what it meant that we have lived among such people this whole time

“It’s about time to have Christians standing up for what Jesus said,” including welcoming immigrants,” he said. “People being pushed into unmarked vans by masked men isn’t it,” added his wife... www.chicagocatholic.com/web/chicago-...

I think city council and some state reps are the exception

DC police searched Chavez-DeRemer's office in sexual assault investigation. The Metropolitan Police Department searched the Labor secretary’s office as it looks into allegations against her husband. www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

This degenerate spends all day making workout videos and giving speeches about Christian nationalism.

The Supreme Court, which I do not support, was wrong to rule that Donald Trump, who I do not support, has the right to enact tariffs, which I do not support, without a vote from Congress, which I also do not support. by Glenn Greenwald

🚨BREAKING: In a decisive win for voters, the Utah Supreme Court dismissed the GOP legislature’s appeal in the state’s landmark redistricting case — clearing the way for a fairer congressional map to be used in the 2026 elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Watching Jeffries on TV makes me want to throw something. Just grates on my nerves like crazy. I don’t like his speech patterns. I don’t like his hand gestures. I don’t like his phrasing. How is this man in charge of things?

america really is the world’s police they’re fueled by cocaine and run by the mob

But placing him above the law by granting immunity and letting him wiggle out of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is totally cool.

"Nobody I know thinks this has a chance of working... It's all pageantry, it's declaring victory, mission accomplished, here's the Board of Peace—Gaza's all sorted." @michaeldweiss.bsky.social explains Trump's Board of Peace scam to @timmiller.bsky.social.

Pizza Luce is matching donations to Pillsbury United Communities through 22nd, which is pretty neat (also the current seasonal pizza is very good)

So brown shirts

DHS has so much money (thank GOP) that now new secret service detail agents get two new tailored suits each! "The initiative to have the Secret Service purchase suits happened because Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem disliked how a protective detail was dressed"

The rationale is the Evangelical Right belief in the literal End Times. That’s it - that’s the basis of our government policy concerning Israel. Bringing about the Second Coming is the focus at the highest levels of government. Sound crazy? Maybe, but these are the people running the show.

"The people who are for the U.S. getting more entrenched in Israel's war with Iran—why? What is their rationale? Because it makes no sense politically." @timmiller.bsky.social and @michaeldweiss.bsky.social discuss the potential of war with Iran.

Folks didn't call 911 often because it was expected they wouldn't respond but if we knew it would be tracked, idk how that changes.

This article is frustrating (not the authors fault). Why wasn't the Mayors office talking about these metrics that the City was tracking during January and February? ICE’s Campaign Of Terror Is Not Over, Says Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

dueling is a great mechanism of elite turnover and we should bring it back

The Supreme Court ruling has helped the family of one man in particular: the architect of Trump’s tariffs himself. A firm headed by Lutnick’s sons was allowing its traders to purchase the rights to hundreds of millions of dollars of refunds in the event tariffs were struck down. trib.al/JcwQ9MT

In context Huckabee did not mean all like the whole West Bank, rather the U.S. Ambassador said Israel has a biblical right to the land from the Nile to the Euphrates, and the U.S. would be "fine" if Israel took all that.

Donald Trump's tariffs were ILLEGAL from day one. Enough is enough. Trump took hard-earned money from the pockets of working families and the American people. Time to pay up.

NEW: Tom Homan declared last week the ICE surge in MN was over, and the drawdown of federal agents would carry on through this week. But ICE is still all over. “It certainly hasn’t stopped,” Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said. "People are very much on edge."

President Trump can’t rewrite the Constitution with the stroke of a pen. With the Supreme Court taking up his anti-birthright citizenship executive order, add your name to show your support for protecting this fundamental right at aclu.org/birthright-citizenship-petition-

He did the meme

SCOTUS to Trump

Masnick: "This is what so many of us kept pointing out throughout the 'Twitter Files' hysteria: the 'free speech' grift was never about protecting individuals from the state. It was about protecting a specific type of speaker from the social consequences of their speech."

We need even more folks talking about the Republicans efforts to allow a toxic form of mining on the edge of the BWCA. In particular Pete Stauber the US Representative who supposedly cares about northeastern Minnesota. www.threads.com/@americanhun...

Minnesota needs to do this as well @governorwalz.mn.gov

Independent journalist Zach D. Roberts reported ON-THE-GROUND in Minneapolis from a new Minneapolis prayer camp erected right next to the ICE prison located inside the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis. The ICE prison lies on top of Ft. Snelling—where the U.S. government had a concentration...

I cannot imagine being a left-aligned journalist and using this moment to publically beef with anyone who has put their personal safety on the line to slow down ICE in Minnesota.

Note that the Federal Government is letting Texas "investigate" this shooting while effectively cutting Minnesota out of the investigations of the shootings there.
