This is so heartbreaking. The fact that the media aren't holding Republicans accountable for allowing the Orange Demon to destroy the WH is shameful. They should be spending time talking about its history, and making Republicans try to justify their support its unlawful destruction.

Truckle [TRUK-ul] (v.) - To tamely submit or yield obsequiously; to submissively capitulate. To cringe. Used in a sentence: “Miss Penworthy, who had never truckled to anyone in her life, met the vicar’s withering glare with the serene malice of a cat polishing its whiskers.”

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

We have the timidity of countless corporate and university GCs to thank for the fact DEI is treated as though it were illegal.

- Millions of federal employees aren’t getting paid - 15 million people about to lose their health care - 24 million Americans could see their insurance premiums DOUBLE Now Speaker Johnson gives House Republicans another week off work. 4 straight weeks out of DC. Unbelievable.

Congratulations to new Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado for her courageous struggle to bring democracy to Venezuela.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles. You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House. Not a single offer. Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

Oh this is not great

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square. Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files. Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files. She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

I went #Chough hunting with a new friend, to the Deer Park, on the #Pembrokeshire coastal path today. We got lucky with many sightings of my all time favourite bird. So here’s a #painting of mine to mark the occasion. What a fantastic day!!!

Starting yesterday, notifications of higher premiums are being sent to 90,000 Minnesotans. I heard from a small business owner in Eagan whose premium will increase by *at least* $450 a month. That’s $5,400 a year. That’s why we’re fighting to extend the health care tax credit.

This is not a fight about tax credits. This is a fight over your ability to go to a pharmacy and afford your insulin.

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.
