(gestures everywhere) and you want us to have children????

If a system produces unjust outcomes time and time again, then we can’t *just* focus on individual cases of injustice. Because there will always be more, and never enough attention to go around for all of them. The entire system has to be reworked and/or abolished.

I'm starting to think their midterms plan is to lose so many seats that it actually seems suspicious lol

Epstein survivor Anouska De Georgiou: With the way that these files have been handled…I feel like I have to get through hours at a time, because it’s just too much. This is years. Every week there’s some big thing that interrupts the flow of my life, in a way where I feel completely paralyzed.

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend. They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

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.

[taps mic] my latest crash out is over and as it turns out, i can get through anything

there is a whole subset of people out there who genuinely think they are pro immigrant while voting for trump and supporting ICE, and i need everyone to know that we should ignore these people and move on to the people who still have their humanity.

food banks are a lifeline right now but people should have the universal right to walk into a grocery store and purchase the food they want to eat and will actually eat.

The way people quote posted me like I am stupid as fuck when I said the Dems were fucking us with their 2 week extension

goddamnit

Really nuts how many men were like "Me Too went too far, and I need to email Jeffrey Epstein about it."

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

I personally do not think some rich man should be able to buy an institution like this like a toy and then break it when he doesn’t want to play with it anymore. bsky.app/profile/benm...

Citizens in Virginia just defeated the purchase of a building for a concentration camp.

thankful to be away from certain people

living in america as a survivor at this moment is actually a living hell

in retrospect in the wake of the epstein files being released, no wonder ‘me too’ was met with such anger and ultimately those in power it meant to target never face many consequences

Separating them hastened the son's death! So they compound their cruelty by denying him attendance at the funeral. It feels like they actively hate this man and his family, but what for? edition.cnn.com/2026/01/29/u...

Dan McQuade was the lifeblood of Philly writers, a mensch whose gift for writing was only surpassed by his love of his country, Philadelphia. The city will never be the same without him.

I know I’m a homer but this was the most quintessentially McQuade story. Perfect idea, perfect execution. Dan was the only person on Earth who could’ve written this.

Utterly gutted to learn tonight that Dan McQuade, great writer and a real Philly original, has died. He was just 43, the son of my Philly Daily News friend and former colleague Drew McQuade. Seriously, fuck cancer

“Philly Twitter” is a thing because of Dan McQuade.

Scrolling through Twitter, finding the ancient texts, discovered a quintessential Dan tweet.

rest in peace, dan. i didn’t know him that well, but years ago i had to do a very embarrassing public direct action to protest Trump for a job and he covered it at Philly Mag and was very nice about it.

Frankly I've had enough of this Trump guy

you are required to shovel within 24 hours of a snow storm as a property owner, and if a standard size wheelchair cannot be rolled through the path you’ve made and clear any curb cuts that are available you did not do it.

Raskin: ICE and CBP — these are not law enforcement entities, and at this point they’re completely lawless. They’re outside of the Constitution.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Nine DAs are coalescing to work on prosecuting federal agents for 'overreach': —L. Krasner in Philly —J. Creuzot in Dallas —M. Moriarty in Minneapolis —L. Conover in Tucson —S. Descano in Fairfax (VA) —R. Fatehi in Norfolk (VA) —S. Morales in Portsmouth (VA) —P. Dehghani-Tafti in Arlington (VA)

america is fun because you ponder to yourself “have i experienced a long range acoustic device or was that just a flash bang that time”

TikTok claimed that the failure to load posts about DHS and ICE/CBP was due to a power outage. An outage that only affected certain topics? That’s a new one.

okay but just so you know, John, you’re going.

being a leftist is just being several years early to conclusions everyone makes about public policy eventually.

Okay I think I've mapped out ICE politics as of Monday night

The CBP agent who murdered Renee Good was filming himself with his phone in one hand as he shot with the other. So I’m kinda skeptical of body cams.

under Greg Bovino there have been other abuses, like sexual assault, use of chemical weapons, etc. throw him in jail for a long time.

"Return CBP to the border" Now that you have seen what CBP does, why is it okay to have them on the US-Mexico or US-Canada border? Some people say they want "a controlled border" but at what cost to life?

There's apparently body cam footage of Alex's murder. Do people know this? This lets you know that a demand for body cams is USELESS and in fact just a way to give more money to the killers.

ZERO dollars for ICE. ZERO. And introduce a bill to pull back the funding they have. #abolishICE

if you own property and still haven’t properly shoveled your walkways fully, you’re a piece of shit.

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

just a reminder that the ICE officer who killed Good was an experienced ICE officer. tell this to anyone advocating for further training right now.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.” The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

quotes & replies are disabled, but this has hundreds of reposts and it is just not true. it's so sloppy it doesn't even have the right wrong information. the CURRENT governor of mississippi is tate reeves. she's thinking of the last governor, phil bryant, who is also not carolyn bryant's nephew.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.
