My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

Now is not the time to sit back and be quiet, it’s the time to stand up and be loud. We’ve got to save America from a deviant while we still can.

“Yes, New Jersey should sue the Trump administration, but we have to do more. We should be withholding federal taxes, dollar for dollar, to backfill funding that’s illegally cut. The state should also eminent domain Trump’s golf course in Bedminster and build some affordable housing there instead.”

History has many painful lessons.

As a Coug, I just want to say Go Dawgs! 🐾

Today, I'm signing legislation to safeguard our elections and the voice of every voter. It's now illegal to use contests or payments to get people to register to vote. And in the 2026 election, voters have the chance to repeal our state's ban on the public financing of elections.

Jane Goodall was a global legend at the forefront of discovery — breaking through barriers for women in primatology, science, and beyond. Her curiosity, strength, and kindness changed the world, bridging countries and cultures in pursuit of a better future.

Hertling: His comments about putting hands back on recruits… We moved away from that 30 years ago because it’s ineffective… You know where it didn’t go away? The Russian army.

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals? J: I didn't see it D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

Welcome to Heaven, Dr. Jane Goodall. You made the world a better place.

Democratic states need to STOP paying federal taxes or give it to our own state projects!

I do love that the PDX deployment of the National Guard is lining up with the shut down (no pay) AND the first real rain of the season. Nothing to break the spirit like a working for no $ in the rain, doing a trivial job of guarding a building from peaceful protesters mocking you, often in costume.

Donald Trump and his lapdog Republicans just shut down the federal government after refusing to protect Americans from an imminent spike in health insurance costs. This is what the GOP stands for.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

They’re gonna cut off what they don’t want you to hear…

Everything is so stupid

As a German I want to tell all ICE brownshir... 'agents', I meant 'agents', the following fact: "I just followed orders" wasn't a valid defense during the Nuremberg trials. And it isn't now either. You should remember that when you're on trial.

Live from "war ravaged" Portland

Observation: A lot of cat shirts in Portland today. 🐈‍⬛ 🌹

Parents w/school age kids. Please be careful how you discuss politics in your household. These are very scary times and young ones aren’t able to compartmentalize their feelings leaving them to lash out at school. Please make sure you are reassuring them everything will be okay, even if it isn’t.

Portlanders! If you’re in a position to deny ICE thugs service in your businesses, do it! Not one bottle of water, not one slice of pizza…and no restroom keys. Make them feel the pain they’re inflicting on others. #ICEBlock

Authoritarians rely on fear to divide us. Portland will not give them that. We won't be intimidated. We have prepared for this moment since Trump took office & we will meet it with every tool available: litigation, legislation & peaceful public pressure. Stay safe, stay peaceful & stay together.

There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

We are hearing reports of increased federal agents in Portland. Let me be clear: Trump wants to tell a story of Portland that does not reflect who we are. The Portland we love is strong, compassionate, and unwavering in our commitment to protect our neighbors.

NEW VIDEO: Donald Trump’s second term isn’t just about bad policies — it’s about permanently breaking America’s democratic institutions. Today, @marcelias.bsky.social explains why we can’t simply “resist” Trump and wait things out, but must build a long-term pro-democracy opposition movement👇

We are crying… we are loving it and we cannot get enough !! #JPOD 🩵🐳

Pete Hegseth calling a loyalty oath? It just keeps getting better. GENERAL STRIKE NOW - SHUT IT DOWN!

The Dallas shooter is Joshua Jahn. He ain't a minority. He ain't transgender. He ain't an immigrant. Yet another white kid with a serious gun fixation.

Hi, Bluesky! Over one million people cut Disney+, which is why Disney did the right thing and brought Jimmy Kimmel back without conditions. So I ask you, which mega company are we boycotting next and why?

You cannot trust information coming from Kash Patel's FBI. You cannot trust information coming from ICE. You cannot trust information coming the Trump administration. You cannot trust information coming from Republicans.

CARTOON OF THE DAY (Updated Version)

One thing we've learned in the last 12 hours: The Sinclair-Nexstar ban on Kimmel, in terms of his reach, means nothing in an era when late-night shows have an afterlife or simultaneous life on streaming. Kimmel's average audience is 1.6M. On YouTube, last night's monologue is already at 8.4M views.

How do you know that Disney is doing poorly? They raise their prices. Same thing they’ve been doing with the parks since Covid. Their bubble is going to burst soon.

We must all scream that we are are Antifa. If you resist fascism, you ARE Antifa. Like “I am Spartacus”, we all need to be saying “I am Antifa”.

I’m old enough to remember that “I was just following orders” was no defense. Nor is it now.

If you look up the top news stories for today. Every single one of them would have triggered mass unrest 10 years ago. Trump and the complicit GOP have normalized authoritarianism.

When is someone going to file a class action lawsuit against Trump for the bullshit he’s put Americans through for the past 10 years? For anyone not living under a rock, just the mental stress and the loss of friends/family is worth a few billion, right?
