One day I hope this will feel outdated. We’re nowhere near there yet.

Welp

In Europe, they’re making arrests over the Epstein scandal. In America, the regime’s making redactions and hiding evidence.

This administration has managed to do many big things at once. The problem is they're all harmful. The next time our party earns the chance to lead, we have to be prepared to aim big and do many things at once - things that will actually help improve life in America.

"US immigration enforcement has evolved into a rapidly growing multi-billion-dollar industry in which profitability increasingly dictates policy and enforcement priorities." By: @tylermcbrien.com inkstickmedia.com/the-us-immig...

Nailed it

Rep. Al Green was holding a sign that reads "Black People Aren't Apes" at the #SOTU:

Lying for 2 hours straight won't solve any of the issues he's been underwater on for months. Everything is more expensive, corruption is rampant, and the Epstein Class gets richer while you get screwed. The lies you heard tonight won’t matter in November.

Casar: He steals from working Americans to give to the rich. Donald Trump doesn't owe us a two-hour rambling speech. He owes the American people their money back.

Don't temp us!!!! #wehavefriendseverywhere

The State of the Union: the president is a corrupt demented sex criminal who tried to overthrow the constitution.

The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any. - Alice Walker Pic of the day #photography

NEW: Trump made the so-called SAVE America Act central to his State of the Union. Voting rights advocates say it’s “voter suppression, plain and simple.”

Rep. Massie:  “I've not seen any arrests from the revelations in the Epstein files…Over two dozen people have resigned, CEOs, members of government worldwide. But I haven't seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States from this DOJ.”

The Epstein Administration hard at work

People don't want data centers polluting their cities. They don't want masked thugs terrorizing their neighbors. They don't want warehouses being turned into ICE prisons. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

BREAKING Former ICE agent: On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

I don't participate in social media to gain followers or clicks so my reach is incredibly small, which in this instance is a pity. Magnificent article which finally helps explain what has happened. How bible verse memorizing kids could grow up to think torture prisons for aliens is a good idea.

Don't have a bone in this fight, but the Dems need to watch. What I appreciate is someone who knows what they would do, what they'd vore for, trust voters to pick themselves based on what they see and I certainly would prefer Kat's condidence and directness compared to the anxious uncertainty.

I'm most certainly not one to suggest the suppression of free speech, but I'm almost certainly not one to suggest that organizations shouldn't respond to gravely offensive speech. At first I thought there was no way this account was from an official univ. group, but this post actually is from (1/)

ICE just bought a massive warehouse in Social Circle, Georgia for $128.6 million. Call it what it is: an internment camp expansion happening in town across the country. 1/2

Our Pulitzer-winning "Friends of the Court" series began with this story that revealed how SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas had, for 20+ years, been treated to undisclosed luxury vacations by real estate titan and GOP megadonor Harlan Crow. (Published April 2023)

This from the lawyer who successfully argued the tariff case before SCOTUS, casts huge doubt over the applicability of the statute the @POTUS is relying on to slap down a new 15 percent global tariff.

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending. . . there have been no convictions. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Ms. McQuade Made This Insightful Statement on Lawrence O'Donnell's Show,In 2020........

This dude @rokhanna.bsky.social is out here making sense

ISP just having a 100mph chase down 10th street. Good job, assholes. Innocent people are the ones that are always injured or die. I've almost been taken out by IMPD for this shit, and I don't care what crime someone is accused of. It's not worth your adrenaline rush.

A Republican voting overhaul is back on Capitol Hill — with an added photo identification provision and an altered name. Opponents say the legislation would disenfranchise millions of voters.

newsone.com/6850568/body... Black man found hanging in Marietta ga. a couple of days ago. No news coverage again. Likely not a suicide as they are again trying to say. Statistically speaking Black people don’t hang ourselves from trees. Any guess of who would do this?!

They locked up a Colombian child coming to go to Disney World with her family. What the hell are we doing? And why in the world would anyone come here for the World Cup/Olympics? www.miaminewtimes.com/news/immigra...

Alright… this next one’s a little diff. This one carries history in it. There’s something powerful about hearing a legacy passed hand to hand. ‘Specially when it’s in harmony. And when sons step up to honor the voice that raised them. Let’s let it play.

I don’t understand what he means when he says “I don’t think the court meant it.” Like, what?

Anyone want to pay this government their taxes this year?

Unhinged authoritarian press event unlike anything we have ever seen in wake of a Supreme Court decision.

Every time I see a report of ICE leaving Minnesota or Minneapolis I think "I wish" because uh, they're still here being assholes & terrorizing people, just not as much in some places but more so in other places best I can tell and of course people are still imprisoned in misery at Whipple & . . . 🧵

As the world reels from the president's rant and threats of additional tariff chaos, I'd just like to remind the UK that they recently arrested someone who could probably bring down this entire house of cards with very little incentive.

Is the regime trying to build an ICE detention camp near you?

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal. Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

This tariff ruling is causing considerable confusion. But one thing is clear. 100% of any tariff refunds will be paid to corporations that passed on increased costs to consumers. We paid the tariffs. They will get the refund. Prices won't come back down. The people will get screwed yet again.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

News you can use, from the @wired.com security team (who are the best in the biz). They asked technologists, activists, aid groups, and cybersecurity experts for guidance on how to organize and collaborate in an age of surveillance. Here’s the result:

A two-month-old named Juan Nicolás has been held with his mother at the South Texas Family Residential Center, an immigration detention facility near Dilley, Texas, for more than three weeks roughly half of his life. The infant had been exhibiting serious health problems,

LEFT: Someone who appears in the Epstein files over a million times. Epstein called him his "best friend." RIGHT: Someone never mentioned in the Epstein files—even once. And she never met him. So guess which one is being hauled before our corrupt, cover-upping Congress to testify about Epstein.

It’s important that Minnesota be not just a shining example of what can be done. It needs to be a harbinger of what’s going to be done. lnk.thebulwark.com/3MCBgiK
