Stop callinge them "data centers" and starte callinge them "slop peripherals"

Is the world really going to have to burn because the USA can't impeach a president?

sand in every MFing gear

Reminder: DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August. He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA. The grift continues.

The United States is contemplating threatening to kill people with HIV in another country as leverage to get that country's minerals. We have become a sick nation, just as depraved and disgusting as its leader.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion. That's $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. Thousands of lives lost. People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Today we observed six shackled detainees being loaded onto the ICE Air flight at MSP. They're heading to El Paso, where conditions are so horrific, staff gamble on who the next prisoner to commit suicide will be. The man walking from right to left at the beginning of the clip is dragging shackles.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

My governor. 🔥

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime? NOEM: She did not. She's with her family LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

Suddenly, its turns out that it is not smart to arrogantly shit on an ally that has learned how to down 200 Shaheds every single night and then wipe out and oil refinery or a military airfield with a handful of cheap drones.

The chief federal judge in Minnesota has threatened to pursue criminal contempt charges against ICE and the state's top federal prosecutor if they don't comply with court orders in scores of immigration cases. At least 97 violations involving 66 different cases have been documented.

I guess we are just paying these people to fly around making workout videos and attending sporting events.

"Exactly four years of war, as of today. The cemeteries in Ukraine are larger than they should be. Fresh graves change the landscapes, as seen from a car or a train; the short spans of life, seen inscribed in stone, alter the reaction of the heart." snyder.substack.com/p/life-and-d...

Today I’m proposing a ban on assault rifles, high-capacity magazines, binary triggers, firearms without serial numbers, and more.

At the new ProPublica Narrated, you can listen to narrated versions of our important new investigations alongside the most compelling journalism from the ProPublica archives. Give it a listen here:

I hope that the people who wrote the "this is Trump's chance to change directions!" pieces have also written their "look at the new tone he took!" followup for tonight and the inevitable "well, looks like I fell for it again" piece for tomorrow morning

Chakrabarti: We’ve basically created a federal jobs program to terrorize people through ICE. What if we used that instead to actually develop things — to build things people want? It’s the same with foreign policy. We’re spending all this money dropping bombs in other countries—no one wants that.

An ICE agent shot and killed 23-year-old U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas almost an entire year ago and hid the shooting from the public. It’s only now coming to light, 11 months later, due to Freedom of Information Act requests. What else is the regime hiding from us?

Cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of over $100 billion. It’s also extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each pill, even though that pill costs just 25 cents to make. (Published May 2025)

Pope Leo XIV: I invite everyone to join in prayer for the martyred Ukrainian people and for all those who suffer because of this war and all the conflicts in the world, so that the long-awaited gift of peace may shine in our days.

Incredible opinion. It holds that the common ICE tactic of jumping out of an unidentified rental vehicle and seizing suspected noncitizens while masked violates the Fourth Amendment because the *manner* of the seizure is incompatible with a free society governed by the rule of law.

Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics. "It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: Hundreds of judges around the country have ruled more than 4,400 times since October that President Donald Trump’s administration is detaining immigrants unlawfully, a Reuters review of court records found. The government keeps doing it nonetheless. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Despite calls to “nationalize” elections, “the president has no lawful authority for such a takeover,” @seanmorales-doyle.bsky.social writes in @nytopinion.nytimes.com It will be “incumbent on all of us … to see the administration’s efforts for what they are.”

None of this is normal

ProPublica received eight handwritten letters from children who have been held at the detention center that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was recently released from. We'll let their words speak for themselves.

Don’t let Trump see this

REP. @aoc.bsky.social : “It’s important to remember there’s more of us than them — every one of us can be sand in the gears of an injustice.”

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.

Utah Republicans’ plan to repeal the state’s gerrymandering ban in order to grab another congressional seat isn’t going as well as they hoped — despite Donald Trump Jr.’s best efforts to help recruit workers for a MAGA political firm that turned in fraudulent signatures.

New photos give glimpse inside Iran’s bloody crackdown on anti-government protests

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

Today marks 62 years since the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Just as ICE and CBP have no legitimate role in "election security" neither does the head of DHS. The mere existence of this press conference should be a scandal, much less this tone-deaf comment.

Social media companies are suppressing terms like “Epstein” and “ICE” and “voting” because they don’t want you thinking about those things. Like and share everything you see.

Great sitting down with Brian Tyler Cohen to talk about everything from the courage we saw in Minnesota, to how Democrats can be true to our values and get stuff done, to how we’re building a community of changemakers at the Obama Foundation. youtube.com/watch?v=uI-hgSE5QIw

Trump administration working to expand effort to strip citizenship from foreign-born Americans U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officials focused on denaturalization were sent to offices nationwide, sources say.

Trump Tyranny Tracker: Day 389 The daily tracker documenting the latest in corruption, power consolidation, civil & human rights abuses, and weaponization of government news.

The New York Times just launched a new "newsletter about the law and the courts." They are calling it "The Docket." The Times may not care that Democracy Docket has been publishing "On the Docket" and "Daily Docket" for years, but I believe our 400,000 subscribers might. More on this tomorrow.

truthout.org/articles/the... The early statement by Felon Trump that ICE would be removing "The worst of the worst" most dangerous and violent criminals was a lie. ICE goes after families and kids. They are the KKK with masks instead of hoods. #TraitorTrump #ICEIsATerroristOrg #ImpeachNoem

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

Howard Lutnick misled the American people about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein because he didn't want to admit he continued interacting with Epstein even AFTER Epstein was convicted of soliciting a minor.   It's a disgrace. Lutnick needs to resign as Secretary of Commerce.

BREAKING: An ICE flight just refueled in Ireland again. A local activist pressed police to investigate for human trafficking; the plane took off 30 minutes ago. Plus, that MAGA billionaire's jet did another ICE flight, this time to Sierra Leone. #speirghorm gillianbrockell.ghost.io/ice-flight-r...
