I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down

Checking in on Trump's tariffs

Trump is the kind of guy who tries to steal elections. He’s now presiding over a Justice Department that seems primed to help him try. We cannot permit any scandal of the moment to drive this fundamental reality from our minds.

BREAKING: Republican lawmakers unveil the Make Elections Great Again Act — a new bill that would impose the most extreme federal voting restrictions in history. The measure would go beyond the SAVE Act by imposing strict voter ID to vote, mandating voter roll purges, banning mail voting and more.

Just visited with Liam and his father at Dilley detention center. I demanded his release and told him how much his family, his school, and our country loves him and is praying for him.

This is incredible. Sound up.

Masking is not about doxing. That is the excuse. They are wearing masks so people cannot identify agents who engage in abuses, civil rights violations, and crimes. You can’t report someone or hold them accountable in any way if you can’t identify them.

Raskin: ICE and CBP — these are not law enforcement entities, and at this point they’re completely lawless. They’re outside of the Constitution.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

Important. There has not been a deescalation.

Seems like a good video for his trial

The president promised to carry out “retribution” on the state that he actually lost every time.

At least six prosecutors quit the office following Renee Good's killing.

Any criminal charges over 2020 election in Georgia would seem barred by statute of limitations. More political theater. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Trump just reposted a tweet calling Alex Pretti a "domestic terrorist"

The point of this isn't to be a doomer, but to make clear that there is a clear and present danger to free and fair elections in November. Hopefully this genuine threat drives turnout no matter what the White House does.

Rubio: “I think all of those [oil] executives learned about this operation the same time everybody else did.” Van Hollen: “Trump has said the opposite.” Rubio: “No.” Trump, on Jan. 4, said he spoke with oil executives “before and after” the operation against Venezuela.

All Senate Democrats (and independents) must vote tomorrow against the DHS appropriations bill. Please call your senators today and say NO more funding for ICE: 202-224-3121. Here's more about what you should know: https://robertreich.substack.com/p/dems-must-stop-ice-funding-heres

Finally.

She filed a habeas petition last month.

The US has officially withdrawn from the Paris Agreement. Here's a graphic guide to why the pact is so important

The operation in Washington, D.C. alone is projected to cost upwards of $660 million if it runs through the end of this year as expected, according to new data released by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. n.pr/45FbxN0

The next Trump post should be pleasant.

Threats are up more than 50% since Trump took office.

If you work for ICE or Border Patrol and have information about unlawful conduct taking place at your agency, please speak up. House Judiciary Dems want to hear from you. America needs to know about crimes committed in our name. As a whistleblower, you can share anonymously:

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

BREAKING: North Carolina students sue GOP officials to restore voting sites to the U.S.’ largest HBCU, and two campuses across the state. The removals, which came weeks before the state’s 2026 primaries, were the latest from the GOP-led state election board to restrict voting in the Tar Heel State.

Palantir got $1.6 billion in government contracts from 2012-2024. They secured $900 million more in 2025. They reported $1.5 billion in losses from 2020-2024 and paid $0 in federal income taxes. They don't care about doing the right thing. They care about getting richer.

Hours after the Minneapolis shooting, Tim Cook was schmoozing with Trump at the White House—showing that the titans of Silicon Valley are still not distancing themselves from the president, argues Lila Shroff.

Watch, learn and share.

They are trying to gaslight us, but we’ve seen the videos.

Trump on Kristi Noem: "I think she is doing a very good job."

The Homeland Security secretary is staying at her post amid mounting backlash.

Trump: You can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. It's a very unfortunate thing.

"No infraction is too small to be investigated and, if the evidence warrants, charged. We will need an American Nuremberg." Today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social: lnk.thebulwark.com/49KD9mm

Trump: "You can't have guns...You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that."

Relatives of two Trinidadian men the U.S. military apparently killed in a boat strike filed a wrongful-death lawsuit on Tuesday, bringing the first legal challenge in an American court to President Trump’s policy of targeting vessels suspected of smuggling drugs at sea.

I guess he just got lucky.

At the very least, Congress must disarm ICE, prohibit it from using racial or ethnic profiling, end arrest quotas, remove agents’ immunity from criminal prosecution and civil lawsuits, and slash its funding. The Senate has the chance to rein in ICE this week. Keep calling: (202) 224-3121

Trump lying about the substance of a call with a foreign leader, Chapter 1,378.

A federal agent allegedly tried to enter Google’s Cambridge campus in the fall, WIRED has learned. Now, staffers want policies that protect them from immigration officials. www.wired.com/story/google...

In response to Trump’s trade war, the rest of the world makes free trade agreements while Trump fires off new manic tariffs weekly every time another leader says something he doesn’t like.

Friends: While ICE leaves cities reeling and families scarred by their violence, Republicans want to fund trump's gestapo instead of funding healthcare for millions. Let's get 1,000 quick reposts and replies with #FundHealthcareStopICE to make it trend. Please and thank you! 🙏💪

A Republican-led Utah audit of over 2 million voter registrations found only one noncitizen, who never voted. The results undercut the right-wing narrative of widespread noncitizen voting, especially as Republicans renew their push for a proof-of-citizenship requirement in voter registration.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

Exclusive: Border Patrol “Commander at Large” Gregory Bovino has been removed from his role and is expected to retire soon, sources tell @nickmiroff.bsky.social.

However, they've been relocated "for their safety."
