Of the biggest scandals in US history just this week, I think I’d rank them: 1) Federal paramilitaries invade US city based on racist lies, murder US citizens 2) Slush fund for the president from stolen foreign resources held in Qatar 3) Whatever FBI and DNI are doing re: 2020 election in Georgia

Seems like a good video for his trial

Shouting out to all Americans to watch Heather Cox Richardson's Conversation with Jeff Clements on Citizens United. The most important political issue of our time!

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

The President of the United States is a mentally ill deluded lunatic and nobody will do a damn thing about it. This is insane. Literally.

The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day. I founded Democracy Docket because you deserve better. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

The parents of Alex Pretti have retained a former federal prosecutor who helped Minnesota's attorney general convict the police officer who kneeled on George Floyd's neck of murder. https://to.pbs.org/3ZA2HfU

Tulsi lurking around this GEORGIA election office raid means we should all not take this story lightly Trump’s plot to overthrow our democracy continues 🇺🇸

Confronted Congressman Tom Suozzi, one of seven Democrats casting the decisive votes to increase ICE funding by $10,000,000,000.

As I noted here, ICE's masks have given them impunity to inflict harm without consequences, just like the Klan. And just like the Klan, when they're unmasked by new laws, they'll be weakened across the board. campaign-trails.ghost.io/masks-off/

The FBI has searched an election office in Georgia's Fulton County outside Atlanta on Wednesday, pursuing Donald Trump's false claims that his 2020 election defeat was the result of widespread voting fraud. Trump is using “2020” to test the boundaries befor Nov. www.reuters.com/world/us/fbi...

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot. "They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets." "They had the professional demeanor of criminals." ht: @paulgraham.bsky.social

The results are in, and it ain't pretty for Elon. Tesla's profits tanked 46% in 2025, with no relief in sight. The stock market is rewarding Elon's sleight of hand right now, but there's only so long the pipe dreams can keep this valuation sky high. #TeslaTakedown techcrunch.com/2026/01/28/t...

xAI is burning an estimated $1 billion per month. The results? A chatbot that calls itself MechaHitler and is being investigated in multiple countries for creating and distributing deepfake kiddie porn. Love to see Tesla setting its plummeting profits on fire #TeslaTakedown

Judgment at Noemberg

A Danish pension fund sold $100 million in US bonds. Trump said he “holds all the cards” and warned Europe against selling US assets over tariffs, or face “big retaliation”. A Swedish pension fund responded by dumping $8.8 billion in US Treasury bonds.

The wrecking ball DOGE swung at the Social Security Administration has now resulted in the data of over 340 million Americans being compromised.

RAND PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war? RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

“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.”

In response to the killing of two U.S. citizens by federal immigration officers, Apple CEO Tim Cook sent a note to his staff praising Trump for “his openness to engaging on issues that matter to us all”

ok the full clip is way better than the little one going around. her whole team try to get her to bail on the event and she's like no, I came to speak. incredible example.

ICE pointed guns at a retired couple in a church lot and lied. No warrant. No rights. Just terror. PAXIS tells us that’s unconstitutional. You have the right to remain silent, see a judicial warrant, and not open the church door. PAXIS holds that line. Learn more & support: www.paxis.app

Just remember, Kristi Noem wrote in her book that she murdered her dogs so Americans know she’s good with murder. She told us and white women still elected her to murder Americans

Alexander Vindman, who became a key player along with his twin brother in President Donald Trump’s first impeachment, announced that he is running for the US Senate as a Democrat in Florida. https://cnn.it/4ag319M

This is a terrific piece of rhetorical construction that also happens to be a very good point. A lot of us have been heartened by the courage and integrity so many Minnesotans have shown over this past week, in the face of intimidation and spiteful violence.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Tom Nichols: “What an incredibly powerful tool simply to have the images that are irrefutable. And I think this is one reason that so many people who support the president simply refuse to watch the news now. They don’t want to know.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social

One place you're famously not supposed to draw weapons is a bank

Swalwell: "The masks has to come off. These guys, the don't just wear these masks for their own anonymity. They wear it for moral cover. They hide their identities from us and their humanity from themselves. So their masks have to come off. Period."

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Trump has given ICE a hunting license to kill Americans. Senator Chuck Schumer needs to shut down the DHS appropriations. This is not a policy fight.

It doesn't matter what the Constitution says. If the government can execute you on the street or in your own home on a whim, you have no rights. None.

“I just checked—it turns out that Art. II, Sec. 1 of the Constitution of the United States does *not* say ‘The executive Power shall be vested in a bunch of sociopaths who think they can do whatever the f*ck they want and make sh*t up as they go along.’” — George Conway

oh commuters just found the motherlode of ice agents at a suburban hotel, including, potentially, bovino himself. a bunch of confirmed ICE and CBP cars from the bovino convoy there. spring hill suites in maple grove. people of the twin cities, do with this info what you will.

On NPR on Friday, there was a story of a 4-year-old--an American citizen--who hasn't left her house since early December, not even to play in the yard. And her 8-year-old brother recently stopped going to school, too. Their father is undocumented, and the family doesn't want to risk him being taken.

Damn proud of Minnesota.

Man…I’m just really freakin happy for Sam Darnold. We were in Arizona for his loss to the Rams last year—to go from that to this, and from castoff to the Super Bowl. What an incredible journey. What a game. What a moment for him.

People are beaten by guards in concentration camps built and maintained with our tax dollars. We are complicit. Children and adults live for months with putrid water, insufficient food containing bugs, no medical care. WHY ARE WE TOLERATING THIS?? ITS HAPPENING OFF CAMERA, BUT WE KNOW ABOUT IT.

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

Walz: "We're no longer having a political debate. We're having a moral debate."

the federal government is nothing but liars and murderers and pedophiles and what do you do with liars and murderers and pedophiles

‘We need gun rights and small government to protect ourselves from tyranny,’ Republicans said - before citing gun possession and fear of tyrannical government to justify murdering fellow Americans.

I'm at a loss for words. I'm glad someone else has them.

Alex Pretti, who was fatally shot by Border Patrol agents on Saturday, was a registered nurse who worked in the ICU at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Minneapolis. “He wanted to be helpful, to help humanity and have a career that was a force of good in the world,” a colleague said. trib.al/0Yb3jXF

Anyone thinking of going to the Olympics or World Cup, don't Every country should be having a very serious think about the safety of athletes, players, officials and fans. It's morally wrong to go and give affirmation to the regime in the US Every day gets more disgusting, ENOUGH
