Mamdani & Hochul just announced a universal pre-K expansion. What are these stories?

Secretary Noem must be impeached. She has obstructed Congressional oversight, directly violated a court order, violated public trust, and engaged in corruption to enrich herself and close associates. She must be held accountable.

Six federal prosecutors in Minnesota resigned on Tuesday over the Justice Department’s push to investigate the widow of a woman killed by an ICE agent and the department’s reluctance to investigate the shooter. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/u...

Today, ICE detained an NYC Council employee during a routine and required immigration check-in - yet another example of targeting immigrants lawfully here and following the rules. My office is working with @speakermenin.bsky.social to secure the immediate release of this individual.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

"(Trump) is literally justifying murder by his personal police force by claiming that being 'highly disrespectful' makes the use of deadly force 'necessary'... The state sponsored murders of wine moms will continue until morale improves." Excellent piece by @mmasnick.bsky.social today

Will be interesting to see who suddenly cares about the president’s weaponization of the Justice Department now that it might threaten their bottom line $$$

My name is Mary Peltola, and I'm running for U.S. Senate to fight for fish, family, and freedom – and that begins with fixing the rigged system in DC that’s shutting down Alaska. We need systemic change if we're going to lower costs, save our fisheries, and fill our homes with abundance again.

Dems in 2024: "Everyone, Project 2025 is really bad." The "smart" people: "Lol no it isn't." *ROUGHLY ONE YEAR LATER* The same "smart" people: "Have you all heard of this Project 2025? It sounds really bad. Why was no one talking about this?!?!"

I'm FOR the independence of the Fed. I'm AGAINST the attack of Jerome Powell. I HOPE business reacts strongly. But it would be nice if business types, now bestirred, also condemned ICE's attacks on immigrants and Americans--not just Trump's attack on the Fed.

Sentiment check: r/wallstreetbets is absolutely libbing out, indistinguishable from Bsky.

The Iranian government’s violent crackdown on demonstrators is horrific and must stop now. All people have the right to protest their government without fear of violence. I support the Iranians taking to the streets to call for a better future.

Powell has more spinal fortitude than all the universities admins and Big Law firms combined.

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

Federal agents killing people, getting institutional support from POTUS, VP, other politicians, and media, while facing no consequences is not the same as some random guy killing someone, getting vocal support from a handful of posters, and facing murder charges. Those don’t cancel each other out.

America voters cried out for more war, fewer rights, higher prices, fewer jobs, less healthcare, more corruption, fewer allies, more bigotry, less equality, more lies, more criminality, and less democracy. And they got what they voted for, even if some didn’t realize that’s what they were doing.

Please join me in praying for my city's only synagogue, Congregation Beth Israel, which was set on fire in the early morning hours, yesterday. Nobody was hurt and a suspect has been caught and charged with arson, but not much is public. Beth Israel is part of JXN's long tradition of racial justice.

If I was the commander in chief of the Imperial hegemon I would simply not dismantle the network of military and diplomatic alliances, favourable trade deals, and broad cultural paramountcy that had made my nation the most wealthy and powerful the world has ever seen.

The “if she had complied, she’d still be alive” line that we’re hearing from ICE defenders is the mantra of apologists for security forces in dictatorships through the ages.

Renee Good should still be here. She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth. She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.

Crowds of protesters across the U.S. mobilized against the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown on Saturday, three days after an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. trib.al/RXQlxWj

Also, by their own standards, the cops protecting the Capitol on Jan 6 should have opened fire all over.

genuinely fascinating to me that even after an american is executed in the street by the state your instinct is not to condemn and discuss this on its own terms but to use it as fodder for abstraction and discourse policing

If you're a young person you have no idea how long we've all been listening to Small Government and Liberty stuff from the right. Nobody at all believed any of it lol

WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to: * 8 people shot * 5 of which were U.S. citizens * 2 died * no victims drew a weapon The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire www.wsj.com/us-news/vide...

Good reporting that explains how ICE/CBP are creating the conditions that allow them to justify the use of violence by ignoring basic best practices when it comes to traffic stops. The majority of people shot by ICE/CBP with these stops are citizens.

If you had predicted with precise accuracy any of our current top stories this week during the ‘24 election, it would have been dismissed as Trump Derangement Syndrome by most of the professional takesmiths.

Congress must address Kristi Noem's failed leadership, up to and including impeachment. But that alone is insufficient. The entire chain of command who have enabled a culture of murder must face justice.

Newly-released footage reveals Renee Nicole Good’s last words.

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

It's very funny how the ideology and propaganda of the Trump administration is all about male-coded, macho work returning to the US, but manufacturing is shriveling and the only thing growing is care work

So a CBS Evening News reporter actually did a pretty solid breakdown of the ICE murder video, talking to a former agent who details all the ways Ross messed up. And yet: It didn’t air on the actual show tonight. CBS did post it to YouTube—and it has nearly 800k views already youtu.be/6ywLEESFDu0?...

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism. Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

Worth remembering that in 1952, Chaplin - for 40 years maybe the most famous man in the world - had his visa revoked as he sailed for Europe. J. Edgar Hoover didn't like that he was a vaguely left-wing pacifist who slept around. He never really got over it. His creativity didn't.

People Magazine is incredibly clear eyed about ICE being a terrorist organization. I’ll probably buy a subscription because of it:

Reportedly, this is Tehran right now

ICE’s killing of Renee Good, a mother of three, was caused by the Trump Administration’s intentionally inhumane & chaotic deployments. Kristi Noem is dangerously unfit for the dire responsibility of DHS Secretary & should be impeached immediately. kevinmullin.house.gov/2026/01/08/r...

Renee Nicole Good was an avid writer, a proud mother and a hobby guitarist who won a poetry prize in 2020, according to online records and an interview with her father. Here’s more of what we know about her life: https://wapo.st/4bjKzxW

Watched the J.D. Vance brief from the White House. Disgusting .. and every word needs a disclaimer. This is the same guy who admitted he lied about Haitians “eating cats and dogs.” Once you invent racist smears for political gain, you lose all credibility.

Minnesota friends, The State of Minnesota does not need to be invited to participate in the DHS "investigation" of its murder of Renee Good. The sovereign State of Minnesota can and must conduct its own investigation, present its findings to its own grand jury, and bring its own criminal charges.

the government is telling you not even unarmed nice white lady moms surrounded by stuffed animals are off limits, and I’m sorry but: that is an extremely terrifying.

The New York Times states it plainly in display type: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in Minneapolis

The killings of Renee Good & Silverio Villegas González are not isolated tragedies—they are part of a pattern. They lie, they hide from oversight, & they kill innocent people in our streets. Kristi Noem & this administration must be held fully accountable for the violence carried out by DHS.

“He made a lot of noise saying he’d stand up for Southern Arizona. We haven’t really seen that in the bill he voted for.” story via @jerodmacevoy.com

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...
