Yep. And our debacle in Iran is the ultimate gift to Putin. SMH

An analyst I follow predicted that Gulf countries would seek licensing and manufacturing agreements with UKR for exactly this type of tech. I heard a separate report today that Zelenskyy was in SA over the weekend. I hope UKR and its innovators are recognized and rewarded as drone wars (sadly) grow.

If the Boss had to pick one of the 3,000+ NK rallies to attend, Saint Paul makes a ton of sense to me. I was there for a couple of days last month right after ICE retreated. The stories were hard to hear but the people were electric. I encourage anyone looking for summer travel destinations to visit

✨✨ NO KINGS RALLY ✨✨ The No Kings rally in St. Paul, MN is expected to draw 100,000. Govenors Walz will be attending and Bruce "The Boss" Springsteen will be performing. I am so proud of my state and we WILL get justice for Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good. ⚖️ www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

The costuming is weird. The music is weird, refreshing and microtonal. Their (September) shows in my vicinity are already sold out. Ladies and gentlemen, it's Quebecois rock group Angine de Poitrine! youtu.be/0Ssi-9wS1so?...

This is such great messaging. Cc: @hcrichardson.bsky.social

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

For months, families lived in fear, children were separated from parents, and two of our neighbors were killed by federal agents. I’m establishing a council to document the impact of Metro Surge and create a public record of the harm Minnesotans endured. We will not forget.

It’s #Azalea time again in #Georgia. Bonaventure Cemetary, #Savannah #ColorADay #RedWed #EastCoastKin

🐶 This dog was chained in Druzhkivka while people nearby fed him. When glide bombs, Shaheds, and artillery hit, people run. A chained dog cannot. Now he is safe with 12 Vartovykh. The video shows only seconds of the talk that made this rescue possible. #alinacollects5 #animals #dogs

The WSJ is reporting that Trump wants DHS to find a way for ICE to help with airport security screening. I’m not a fan of ICE as an agency nor a fan of the idea I might have to look one of those guys in the eye as he checks my ID. But they’d all be on camera and not on the streets…🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s worth remembering that Bibi needed to be PM to avoid jail. He aligned with extremists to build his coalition & placed unqualified loyalists in crucial leadership roles. The horrors of Oct 7 galvanized the country & he remains in power (not prison) to this day, still at war 30 months later.

I hope to be there this summer 🙏

I wonder if Trump remembered to say Rabbit Rabbit this morning. He does have a lot on his plate

It’s both fascinating and terrifying that Epstein cultivated relationships with people who understand this type of science. Who’s old enough to remember Cambridge Analytica?

open.substack.com/pub/johnpavl... As a father to an amazing 18-year-old woman, co-host (with my wife) to countless hangs with her dynamo group of friends, and coach to dozens of young women, this piece lends an eloquent voice to the rage I feel over this shameful period in our shared history.

My wife and I toured the Capitol while visiting a couple weeks ago. What a beautiful and inspiring public space. The vibe in the cities is amazing. If you’ve never visited (or even if you have), now is the time to go. The food is amazing. The Cathedral felt like being in Italy. A+ all around.

Today is the four year anniversary of the barbaric full scale invasion against the peaceful people of Ukraine. Peaceful, until roused to defend themselves…. Slava Ukrainii

Illinois’ commitment to Ukraine has not wavered in the four years since Russia invaded. We stand firm in our support as they defend their freedom. Slava Ukraini!

To my many Canadian friends. This is not who we are, and the groundswell of pushback against this madness is growing.

This dude @rokhanna.bsky.social is out here making sense

Y’all are crushing it. Keep it up!

The Epstein survivors. The citizens of Minnesota. The people of Ukraine. Three remarkable examples for all of us of courage, persistence, and resistance in dark times. We will not merely endure, we will prevail.

WATCH: “That’s not America. That’s not Tennessee. I’m ashamed of those sons of bitches.” A decorated veteran from a family of soldiers warns Republican anti-immigrant Stephen Miller bills are creating a “Gestapo”. (Bonus: turns out this patriot is a Holler fan 🎉)

youtu.be/kQ8YKlX13qM 1. I haven’t checked whether this video is real, but it passes my sniff test. 2. This ‘toon is signed; I don’t know the creator, presume it’s real. We live in an age of AI. I try to divide the wheat from the chaff. Also, day job. Waiting on HR to reach out. They prolly won’t.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

History has its eyes on you

The Clintons right now.

4 federal agents pull over an elderly US citizen for the suspected crime of being brown, break her car window, throw her to the ground, then drive off after they find her US Passport in her purse. The Salem Police, when called, say there’s nothing they can do. www.salemreporter.com/2026/01/31/u...

Why did the judge sign the warrant? Or perhaps, more importantly why is it under seal? Most importantly, why was Tulsi there. Are the US intelligence agencies involved? Finally, are there plans to seek testimony from the ousted leader in the ATL FBI office?

Jesus, this is a brutal minute.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Look around Look around At how lucky we are To be alive right now

This cannot be America.

The Senate may choose to vote together on the DHS and LHHS bills. Thus, a filibuster on DHS may mean no funding for NIH. What my colleagues are saying: “Shut it down, public health will understand. I’ll work without pay again.” - anonymous NIHer

@warnock.senate.gov @ossoff.bsky.social GA voter here asking you to help stop funding DHS until we have unquestionable transparency and accountability

Senate Dems needn’t come to agreement on everything right now. That’s a path to the lowest common denominator. They simply have to agree to filibuster DHS approps. As to which of a host of anti-brutality and anti-authoritarian proposals to advance, let a thousand flowers bloom.

Thank you, Senator. This is a good start.
