This video is the perfect encapsulation of the illegal, thuggish, unprovoked, violent conduct of ICE. Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social, I trust that you and the House Homeland Security Committee will have interest in this.

But in a sense it's actually worse than a war crime, because there is no war. It's just a crime. It's a crime—murder—whether or not the aircraft can be identified as part of a military force.

JPOW literally said

Holy shit moment. Good statement. The corrupt authoritarians and oligarchs are at the gates. There’s no alternative to fierce resistance and putting down their lawless crusade against the American Republic. x.com/federalreser...

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland. Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

The world’s ocean absorbed more heat in 2025 than in any other year on record

Shapiro: J.D. Vance is profoundly and pathetically a weak human being, and he does whatever he thinks his boss wants him to do. What we need right now is not idiotic gaslighting from the sitting VP He should be ashamed of himself—and he’s not. I think that speaks to the weakness of his character.

ICE agents killing people in the streets. The naked extortion of a sovereign state. The National Guard unleashed in American cities. The Justice Department weaponized to prosecute political opponents. The tyranny is on full display — and it's waking America up.

GOV. WALZ: “Now that Minnesota has been taken out of the investigation, it feels very difficult that we will get a fair outcome. And I say that only because people in positions of power have already passed judgment. They have stood and told you things that are verifiably false.”

This week: we execute a U.S. citizen. Next week: we take over elections to stop “fraud.” It's so transparent what's going on here.

GERMAN PRESIDENT STEINMEIER: “.. the United States has broken with the values that it helped to establish .. “.. we have now moved beyond the stage where we can lament the lack of respect for international law or the erosion of the international order; we are far beyond that, I believe.”

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

Don’t turn away. See what ICE did.

Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

This kind of crass, absurd and obscene embrace of willful murder from a top official is basically participation in murder after the fact

Masked government agents are killing people in the streets, abducting people from their homes in the middle of the night, and arresting those who speak out. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

If a website appeared overnight that gave hundreds of millions of users the opportunity to create CSAM you'd expect governments to shut it down quickly, so the question is why X gets a pass when it's done just that? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Walz: "Do you have no decency? We have someone dead in their car for no reason whatsoever. I don't want to be right about this, but I said if they do this they're gonna create a chaotic situation where someone innocent is gonna get killed. And they did it."

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

We cannot forget who was complicit on January 6th. Ted Cruz fanned the flames of insurrection. Ken Paxton provoked the rioters before the assault. John Cornyn refused to investigate the attack. They have forfeited their right to represent us in our nation’s Capitol.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Five years ago, Donald Trump instigated a violent insurrection in the Capitol to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election. The fact that the GOP coddled him, protected him, renominated him, and now support him in office, is a stain that will never be erased.

Donald Trump is now reposting videos on Truth Social suggesting that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had Melissa Hortman assassinated. This is objectively evil, and calling it out should not be political.

I really hope @rbreich.bsky.social is right and that the US will finally take a long, hard, look in the mirror. The "American Dream" they've been sold since Reaganomics is actually a dystopian nightmare

She lays out the horrible truth very well.

Trump’s Immigration Nightmare: It Is Happening Here newrepublic.com/article/2042... via @newrepublic.com

Trump claims that "[t]he Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans." If that is true, why is it that all Democrats want complete transparency while certain Republicans--with Trump as their leader--want DOJ to release "NO MORE" files? Since when do the innocent hide evidence?

Dean Martin, born Dino Paul Crocetti, son of Italian immigrant Gaetano Crocetti Frank Sinatra, son of Italian immigrants Antonino Sinatra and Natalina Garavanta Merry Christmas to everyone except Stephen Miller and his enablers and handlers

But accepting bribes isn’t an official act.

If ICE can threaten arrest for filming, then journalists, watchdogs, and protesters can all be silenced the same way. You don’t have freedom of the press if recording police is treated as terrorism.  #holdfast www.cato.org/blog/dhs-pol...

Meiselas: Are there any FBI or DOJ whistleblowers who may be on the horizon—people upset about how this was handled and who may have information? Khanna: We’ve had some approach our office and the committee. There are people who are upset about the noncompliance with the law

Is this one of the greatest scenes in movie history? I think so — that’s why “It’s a Wonderful Life” is my all-time favorite.

The DOJ identified at least 10 co-conspirators who worked with Epstein and Maxwell. It’s obvious to anyone with two eyes that Epstein and Maxwell were engaged in organized crime, yet NO ONE ELSE involved in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring has faced criminal charges. Why?

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

REP. @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “The biggest ‘welfare queens’ in 🇺🇸 are corporations that don’t pay a penny in federal taxes, and CEOs who get a tax deduction for flying on a private jet — not hungry kids, or working parents who work multiple jobs.”

My law firm is litigating 66 voting and election cases in 35 states. This is an insanely large number for this point on the election cycle. The 2026 midterm elections will be a fight to protect free and fair election. I started Democracy Docket to keep you informed. Sign up now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

This is not normal, and continued and ever-increasing rhetoric like this should not be treated as normal. #holdfast #steadystate

🎯 CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER @oliverma2026.bsky.social: “The detention centers are run by private prison companies (like @CoreCivic) — they make millions PER PERSON… that’s why they’re looking for anybody brown, so they can keep stealing from taxpayers.” *THIS IS NOT TALKED ABOUT ENOUGH*
