The Rubio speech really is appalling, and if you haven’t read it yet, you should. www.state.gov/releases/off...

CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

So…have we got this straight?🔻

It really is amazing how much of political punditry, *especially* elite outfits in NYC and Washington, still embrace this bizarre idea that rural spaces represent the "Real America" while metropolitan areas, where most (presumably real) Americans actually live, should be held in contempt.

Moskowitz: By the president’s own metrics, what accomplishments does Noem have? • She’s holding up 200 miles of border wall. • She’s deported fewer people than Obama. • She’s not helping any of these red-state governors with their disasters. Why hasn’t he fired her?

I read that as “I raped kids and no one’s gonna do shit about it” A pedophile tweeting daddy’s home is fucking vile. He’s mocking the victims and all of us.

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

“Broken bones, burning eyes: How Trump's DHS deploys 'less lethal' weapons on protesters” @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Behind the numbers, the rhetoric, and the politics of ICE detentions and deportations, there are people whose lives are being uprooted—and families who depend on them. 🎧 On this week’s Reveal, stories about the human cost of immigration raids:

“Aides said [Trump] talked about Ivanka Trump’s breasts, her backside, and what it might be like to have sex with her, remarks that prompted Chief of Staff John Kelly to remind the president that Ivanka was his daughter.” —Miles Taylor, who worked for the first Trump Administration.

Isn't it great that Trump, an Adderall addict with the IQ of a Q-tip and Pete Hegseth, a drunk former Fox News TV Co-host are endangering our lives? #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

And he made Ben Black, the son of of one of the most vile, disgusting perverts in the files, Leon Black, the CEO of the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation.

HE KNOWS. He was friends for over 15 years with a sex predator who ran a CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING ring... and Republicans all seem unbothered by this. Why is ANYONE attending the State of the Union address? Why is ANYONE meeting with him on official business? Why is he not constantly asked about this?

The President, two of his current Cabinet secretaries, his former strategist, his biggest donor, and his pending Fed Chair nominee are all in the files of a pedophile who ran a sex trafficking ring, while the attorney general and a former Cabinet secretary let him get away with it. Seems kinda bad?

Trump insider Tom Barrack kept in regular contact with Jeffrey Epstein for years, files show www.cbsnews.com/news/tom-bar...

So much of our present crisis is coddled, ignorant, and short sighted people tearing down the institutions that protect them because they don’t understand that bad things can happen.

I'm not quite sure how to think about this as it's something that should never have been an issue. The libertarian side of me says, sure, it's their life their choice. And the common sense side of me says, what kind of idiot refuses a vaccine because of some nonsense they read on the internet?

This is a recent story from The Atlantic on how a child dies from Measles. It should never happen here. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

"The consequences are on display in South Carolina, where a measles outbreak has affected more than 900 people, including at least 19 who were hospitalized with complications including pneumonia and brain swelling." I see this as a form of child abuse. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/h...

POS

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

So good

@barackobama.bsky.social: "Bad Bunny's halftime show... This is what a community is. People who did not speak Spanish and have never been to Puerto Rico saw that elderly woman serving a drink and the kids dancing with their grandmas... There's room for everybody here. That I think is where we win."

“A political movement that insists on solving a problem the data cannot substantiate is not engaged in neutral reform. It is redefining the electorate through procedural filtration…[&] structural barriers…the issue is not fraud prevention but power allocation.” open.substack.com/pub/theratio...

A fun thing is to get to the part where he says “this is not who we are” and imagine a certain type of person on here trying to pull a “um actually that’s who we’ve always been read a book for once” to his face

In fine Olympic tradition, Canadian editorial cartoonist Michael de Adder hits the bullseye.

Yep it's right here. Servants of the Mafia State: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/servants-o...

Casablanca is not just a love story; it's also about how we shouldn't try to remain neutral in the face of great evil

Rep. Jason Crow on Rubio's Munich speech: "Not only did he say things I found disturbing, what was also important was what he did not say. He never mentioned Russia once. He never mentioned China once. There was historically revisionism."

Researchers have found that 6 of 10 abortion restrictions — bans on Medicaid funding for abortion, mandated waiting periods, 2nd-trimester abortion bans, ACA marketplace insurance coverage bans, biased counseling laws, and ultrasound requirements — were linked to higher rates of maternal mortality.

Many people knew what was going on with Jeffrey Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell, even in parts. Trigger warning for the subpost video. It's nightmarish! The things that are being revealed are so vile that it's hard to believe such evil exists, so some people just thought these allegations were nuts.

I’m glad to see that we’re finally getting to the money and with that the men behind it.

Here's another Deutsche Bank related story of that era: lawandcrime.com/high-profile...

$287 million loan was forgiven by Deauthbank Bank doesnt forgive loans This needs to be investigated Trump got to keep $287 million And wrote off this building twice on his taxes Netting +$68 million Paid $0 taxes

Deutsche Bank the only bank willing to loan Trump and who money laundered for Putin. 🤔

@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

Gov Walz: "Cautiously optimistic that surge of untrained, aggressive federal agents will leave MN. But MN is left with deep damage, generational trauma, economic ruin and many unanswered questions. Where are our children? Where is the investigation into deaths of Renee and Alex?" #sheshed

Fixed it. #EpsteinFiles

On Saturday, five European governments concluded that the Russian dissident Alexei Navalny was poisoned with a frog toxin. From 2024, read Navalny’s account of his last years. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

From the guy whose family migrated from Cuba to the United States so he could rise to become Secretary of State.

The commander in chief telling troops who they have to vote for is itself a presidency ending impeachable scandal.

A pair of Washington-area golfers have sued over Trump’s plan to overhaul a public golf course here, alleging it violated several laws and the original spirit of the park. More from Rick Maese + me

trump spent $40M ($133k per person) deporting 300 migrants to countries that aren't their homes, sometimes paying twice when they returned them to their actual countries anyway. That same money could've funded comprehensive veteran services, medical care and disability support nationwide. #Resist

Democracy is when voters choose their leaders. Autocracy is when leaders choose their voters.
