Hawaii just enacted a law that effectively neuters Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

Live getting to take a cat nap with the queen 🥰

BRENNAN: The shooter had multiple weapons. You said he traveled from CA across the country by train. How did he do that? BLANCHE: This isn't about making laws more restrictive BRENNAN: I'm asking about crossing state lines w/firearms BLANCHE: I don't think that's something we should be focused on

Massie voted Yes. Warren Davidson voted present. Guess all his opposition to the war isn't enough to get him to oppose Trump. Boebert, Mace and Kean are the non voters. www.govtrack.us/congress/vot...

How did we become inundated with Dubai chocolate? How did candy go viral? Is it really that good?

Donald Trump’s next post: the Pope is two weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon. It’s time for an incursion into the Vatican.

It was “colossal negligence,” one of the current government officials said.

Another hush money payment.

Epstein Latest: A newly surfaced document reveals an inmate told the FBI he overheard guards talking about covering up Epstein's death the morning he died. Miami Herald Investigative Reporter, Julie K. Brown, describes what the inmate claims he heard.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

Ah crap the left is stupid again and doesn't know how the world really works. Unlike me.

These guys were selling t-shirts until they needed a war to cover up the intentional damage they did to the economy and the president's involvement in a pedophilia scandal.

Three U.S. jet fighters were mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti air defenses, the U.S. military said .

Epstein files are missing records from the complaint against Trump. Gift link— this should be an ASAP congressional priority — total violation of the Epstein Files Transparency Act: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/25/u...

This is a breathtaking article about the complete clown show at DHS being overseen by Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski (gift link)

Unlike most travel boycotts, which tend to fizzle over time, Canadians show no sign of relenting on a national movement that cost the U.S. $4.5 billion in 2025.

Note: HJC members played two different clips of Kash Patel lying about Epstein (number of times Trump's name appears, whether there was evidence of other men trafficking women). And as that's happening, Marimar Martinez' attorney is calling out Patel's lies for calling her a terrorist.

Massie says no.

4/ "...There are six men. We went in there for two hours. There’s millions of files, right? And in a couple of hours, we found six men whose names have been redacted, who are implicated in the way that the files are presented,” Massie told reporters...

Rep. Thomas Massie reveals Les Wexner is the first Epstein client and co-conspirator to be named in a child trafficking case

And, again, the agent-doxxed-and-then-attacked scenario the masks ostensibly are intended to prevent has never actually occurred. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...

Already reposted the quoted post but just started cracking up all over again because I can’t believe we saw a wholesome example of this exact format in the wild

A Minneapolis City Council committee delayed action Tuesday on renewing liquor licenses for two Minneapolis hotels that have housed federal immigration officers.

Cross-posting this comment from Jeet Heer over on Twitter. It really is kind of funny that Musk is just totally unable to pick up on code and innuendo.

DHS says ICE agents need to wear face masks because doxxing is happening and assaults are spiking. But, according to their press releases, no agent has been doxxed and assaulted since Trump came back to the White House.

Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...

just choked on my beverage

Another brutal killing by Trump’s ICE agents. Trump, Vance, Noem, Miller, & the whole morally depraved crew have blood on their hands. These killings are happening at their direction. They must be held accountable. Congress must cut-off funding for these heinous acts NOW!

My backyard, yesterday—he’s a big one, isn’t he? I was worried about the crows and squirrels I feed but everyone seemed to hide in time. He ate the peanuts that were out for them and seemed pretty happy with them.

She says ICE agents mocked her: “The ICE agent who had pepper sprayed into the vents of my car said ‘you guys gotta stop obstructing us, that’s why that lesbian b—— is dead,’ verbatim, speaking of Renee Good. Which filled me with absolute rage and shock..." www.mprnews.org/episode/2026...

Someone inside DHS leaked the names of 4,500 ICE and CBP officers to a nonprofit that tracks ICE. About 80 percent of those name are active. www.rawstory.com/ice-agents-d...

Van Hollen: We are here to say not one more dime for Donald Trump's ICE operations

Idiocracy is aspirational compared to these fucking clowns www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter in a massive show of force. Authorities said Tren de Aragua “terrorists” had taken over the building. But after the cameras were gone, federal prosecutors did not charge anyone. (Pub. Nov. 2025 w/ @frontlinepbs.bsky.social @blockclubchi.bsky.social)

In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

JUST IN: Reps. Massie and Khanna say "DOJ cannot be trusted" to release all of the Epstein files, urge a federal judge to appoint an independent overseer to make it happen. khanna.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Fuck Bari Weiss, fuck bootlicking regime propaganda

Minnesota Public Radio says today marks the first and only shooting and homicide in Minneapolis in the year 2026

Why hasn’t the ICE shooter been arrested yet by Minneapolis PD?
