They made a tactical error. Lots more people will see Talarico on YouTube than watching on CBS.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Nope. She’s lying again. He specifically said they wanted to “take over the voting in at least 15 places.” That’s not the SAVE Act. bsky.app/profile/atru...

WOMEN: Does the name on your ID right now match your birth certificate EXACTLY? If not, do you have the legal documents to show that EVERY SINGLE TIME you changed your name, it was a legal change? Better start getting them together right now. open.substack.com/pub/wendy664...

Electrical workers in Minneapolis fight back! IBEW Local 292 appears to have just authorized their workers to walk off the job in protest of ICE or when necessary to protect themselves from ICE. THIS IS HUGE! Esp. if other unions follow suit - could it be the start of a regional general strike?

This is chilling - an interview with two observers in Minneapolis who were taken into custody by ICE, describing how they were treated during the 7-8 hours they were held. youtu.be/Inn-sfiMcyE?...

"José y Maria" has been one of my favorite Christmas drawings for several years now, ever since I first saw it back during Trump 1.0. I wanted to use it in my Substack this season, so I tracked down the artist to ask if he'd give permission (because copyright is important, right?)

AOC: Trump has been saying the economy is booming, but it’s really only seven tech companies. They’re driving this growth in just one sector: AI. So the entire economic growth can be tracked down to seven companies and their AI expansion…

My guess about those emails were released today is that SOMEONE has decided that its time to cut loose from Trump - they see him as a liability now, more than a useful tool.

Newsom: They want to bring us back to a pre-1960s, maybe 1860s world. And you’re seeing it not just on voting rights—you’re seeing it on civil rights, on women’s rights, on LGBTQ rights. They’re censoring historic facts. They’re on a banning binge—Bud Light and Big Bird

It would have cost $38 billion to extend ACA subsidies for one year, and the Dems would have agreed to the funding bill to reopen the government. The GOP refused. Trump sent $40 million to Argentina. It's not the money. They'd rather starve people than fund healthcare.

Oregon SNAP benefits are loaded for November!

Plymouth, Massachusetts- somewhere between 2-3,000 people

Plymouth Massachusetts today, right near Plymouth Rock.

Fairhope, representing Alabama and doing us all proud! And ma'am, if you need a lawyer, I can probably find a few.

Hark, Speaker Mike Johnson! Looking at all the many, many pics of the enormous, joyous “No Kings” rallies throughout the United States today, I am struck by what lovely weather your Lord and Savior provided. Apparently, God is a fan of, as you claimed, "America-hating Antifa terrorists." Glory!

Plymouth, MA today - not sure how many, but it was a LOT!

Swear her in.

Phang: So, as we can see you have a DHS official—you clearly hear him say on that body cam footage, “I am arresting the mayor. Even though he stepped out, I’m going to put him in cuffs.” Who told him to do it? He says: the Deputy Attorney General… And who’s that? Todd Blanche.

“Militant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States. In fact, the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism.” The Trump DOJ scrubbed this study from their website.
