Senate Dems have offered legislation to fund TSA, FEMA, and cyber defense agencies, but Republicans have blocked our efforts. If they truly cared about Americans' safety and convenience, they'd stop playing politics with security services, fund most DHS components, and work with us on ICE reforms.

Donald Trump is a war criminal

🔥 @timmiller.bsky.social: “You’re telling me he was scared for his life? Are you sh*tting me?? The car is barely moving. He orphaned her child, then called her a ‘f*cking bitch’… it’s not a tough call. This was murder.” Full @thebulwark.com video: youtu.be/oc9gwMDxYAQ?...

Trump's second term isn't chaos—it's systematic revenge. While we're distracted by his daily outbursts, he's dismantling institutions with ruthless efficiency. His name will join Machiavelli, Orwell, McCarthy—shorthand for something terrible. Watch the full video: youtu.be/8tj4bzSlpDE

"Strongmen" by @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social is an invaluable read right now. The whole playbook we're seeing in the US is laid bare for all of us to see. "On Tyranny" & "On Freedom" by @timothysnyder.bsky.social are also both must reads given the current moment. www.goodreads.com/book/show/53...

Trump to the UN: "I'm really good at this stuff. Your countries are going to hell."

Tulsi Gabbard: "Russia did not appear to have any preference for one candidate over the other." (Putin said publicly he was happy Trump won!)
