A nation that can build luxury penthouses can build affordable housing. The crisis isn't a lack of money. It's a lack of priorities. Homes belong to families, not just investment portfolios. #SaveHousingFromTrump

Aha

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

It is a broken Christianity that says “God protected him!” when a president survives and “thoughts and prayers” when school kids die.

Should be part of his next test.

We’re about to pay Iran $6 billion to re-open the thing that was open before the war. Art of the deal, baby.

A silent catastrophe.

Well, well… If the 14th amendment was not meant for modern immigrants, then the 2nd amendment was not meant for modern arms. #truth

THIS RIGHT HERE

Christian Nationalism is unConstitutional and anti-human. Operation Epstein Distraction Overthrow the Epstein Class

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Good morning @mrjamesob.bsky.social icymi, there is a new video of the execution of Alex Pretti. This is the woman who took that video. @lbc.co.uk #LBC

Though their usual style is humor, this time, the Marsh family deals with a serious and tragic moment in our history. Their adaptation is beautiful. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

The administration said they would get violent criminals off the streets. Then get ICE off the streets immediately. They are violent criminals!

Soon he will start talking about Epstein to distract us from the horrible job he is doing on immigration, foreign policy, and the economy.

Holy shit.

“Heartbroken but also very angry… sickening lies by the administration… reprehensible and disgusting… Alex is clearly not holding a gun… please get the truth out about our son, he was a good man…”

We see you Minnesota 👏🏽

Breaking NYT: The FBI agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot Renee Good has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter, after leadership pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the officer.

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

“The United States government under Trump has made a deliberate, calculated, and shameful decision to embolden and enable Nazi-glorifying elements within his party; to elevate and amplify Nazi messaging” My latest for the Guardian, and I bring receipts:

Amnesty has issued a report about rising #authoritarianism & #humanRights violations in #USA, incl enforced disappearances, restrictions on #freeSpeech incl the media, increased #corruption, militarisation of law enforcement, mass surveillance, weakening of rule of law www.jurist.org/news/2026/01...

Q: Did you uncover evidence to prove Trump knew his claim the election was stolen was false? SMITH: Yes Q: And Trump claimed it was stolen while he privately acknowledged he lost? SMITH: Yes Q: Yet on the 5th anniversary of J6, Trump still promoted the stolen election theory on a govt webpage

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

"I've asked them to get their affairs in order to make sure they have their wills written... because it may be that now is no longer the time for statements, but for us with our bodies to stand between the powers of this world and the most vulnerable..." www.npr.org/2026/01/18/n...

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

Politicians & some media outlets have latched onto a narrative that recent immigrants, especially undocumented, are causing spikes in crime. Research does not support the view. In fact, immigrants might have less law enforcement contact compared to native-born Americans.

DOJ is out of control. The crime of impeding federal agents requires physical force. Speaking out against the way ICE is being deployed is not a crime. www.cbsnews.com/news/justice...

No words. 💔 #Justice4Renee

NEW: MAYOR FREY: “They are already trying to spin this as an act of self defense. I’ve seen the video myself and I want to tell everybody directly; that is bullshit.”

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.
