Marimar Martinez is a schoolteacher and U.S. citizen. She had no weapon or criminal record, and a CBP officer still shot her five times. That same officer then bragged about his horrific actions in a group chat. It's disgusting, and it's shameful. He must be held accountable.

Big, profitable corporations often pay a lower tax rate than ordinary people like teachers and firefighters. Small businesses are paying more while massive corporations use loopholes to pay nothing. Let’s close those loopholes and make corporations pay their fair share.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

These guys two months ago: ha ha I hope there's a civil war we'll make those LIBERAL BITCHES cry for mercy These guys now: waaaaaa they're using whistles it's not FAIR waaaaa (You can get free community safety whistles, quantity 100 to 1000, from here: linktr.ee/3Dwhistles )

This is what oligarchy looks like: Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive, spent $290 million to elect Trump. Since Election Day, Musk became $548 billion richer while his companies (SpaceX & Tesla) paid $0 in federal income taxes last year after making $13.7 billion in profits.

This administration is out of control. The only real solution here — the only enduring solution — is victory in the midterms.

New: Together with colleagues I’ve been testing Grok. The chatbot still produces sexualized images — even when told the subjects don’t consent. even when told the photos will be used for public humiliation. even when told the subjects are survivors of abuse. www.reuters.com/business/des...

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025. Meanwhile, thanks to his new Tesla pay package, Elon Musk could stand to make $3 billion more per year than all 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined. See the problem here?

.@PabloReports: What do you make of Trump being mentioned 38,000 times in the Epstein files? Swalwell: That’s 38,000 more times than most people I know, and that’s 38,000 reasons why people want to know why he won’t come in and sit for an interview.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Psychopath Trump and his GOP enablers are suggesting on Dan Bonginos show we nationalize elections because they’re about to get crushed. Dangerous

What gives you hope in these awful times? I’ll tell you my answer: the people of Minneapolis.

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores. TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti. Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret. Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.

The One Video You Need to Watch 🔥📺 If you only watch ONE thing about the case for grassroots populism + persuasion, make it this. 👀 thelibertypear.com/2025/09/18/o...

Already at least $1.4B richer since taking office, Trump is now suing the IRS for a jaw-dropping $10B over the leak of his tax returns. As he exploits the presidency for self-enrichment and retribution, millions are still struggling with the soaring cost of living. Priorities.

Dems are sounding the alarm at the prospect that ICE agents will be swarming blue cities near the polls on Election Day, frightening would-be voters into staying home. "Trump is trying to create a pretext to rig the election," said Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.). www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

reminder that a small handful of Republicans in the House and Senate could end this madness today

Honestly, I long for the day again when I can wake in the morning and not have to brace myself from some new horror committed by a man and his regime who are feeding themselves on the ruins of public liberty.

Trump is extorting $10 billion from the Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service he controls through his appointees in the most massively corrupt shakedown in US history. It will barely make the mainstream news. bsky.app/profile/kyle...

Dave Matthews and Tim Ryenolds playing Neil Young’s Ohio last night and ends with some Rage Against the Machine.

The date for the next No Kings Day is set. But this is a save the date, not a “sit back and wait.” 🧵

Trump’s fundraisers are now using the threat of dispatching ICE against citizens as an email engagement tactic.

New report confirms what educators and families have warned: voucher programs don’t expand opportunity, they subsidize private education for the wealthy. In many states, vouchers cover just 39% of tuition, pricing out working-class families while draining public schools that serve every child.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

“Imagine how they lie when there’s no evidence to contradict them.” Watch this powerful message from Jon Stewart.

Popok breaks down how Judge Menendez questioned whether pressure from a large ICE presence was being used to force Minnesota to abandon sanctuary policies and share sensitive data.

This is what oligarchy looks like. @sanders.senate.gov

The tragic events of Minnesota are pushing the nation toward two tipping points. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/americas-tipping-point

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift. It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

Trump's continued threats to invoke the Insurrection Act in Minnesota make this video I filmed a few months ago all the more timely. Please watch.

You do realize this is their plan, right? Credit to @joshtheprogressive on Instagram.

BREAKING: Now that TikTok is under US-based ownership, the social media app potentially collects more detailed information about its users, including precise location data. My latest for @wired.com: www.wired.com/story/tiktok...

Oh, he's being a baaaaaad bunny, I see. Make them MAGA heads explode!

Hugo Lowell told MSNOW that the Trump administration expects that the murder of Alex Pretti will "blow over and go away." They believe that Americans will forget about it in a week or so.

There is a profound, shared hollowness in these eyes. It’s chilling to see that same vacant, sociopathic stare across the board—a collective void where empathy may have once been.

It's time for a truly massive general strike. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-enough

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Evil.

Who in their right mind believes statements from the Department of Homeland Security? Who believes anything Kristi Noem or Stephen Miller or Trump might say about what has just happened in Minneapolis? They no longer have any credibility. That should be clear by now. They lie like they breathe.

NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

Pritzker: "An American president should be standing up, calling for calm. That's not what this president ever does. In fact, he wants the temperature to go up. Why? Because what he's looking for is an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act, to bring actual troops into American cities."

Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice." Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.
