They paid a lot of people good wages to do the job effectively, thank you for coming to my socialism talk

Elizabeth Warren: "This one is to me not even open or arguable. How would the US government keep money that the Supreme Court said it did not legally collect from American businesses, that it did not legally take away from American families that ultimately paid this?"

Look lady, if you’re arguing for a handful of parking spaces over protected bike lanes, you are in fact against safety, no matter how many times you object to that characterization.

“I heard the officer say ‘that ain’t shit’.” NASHVILLE — ICE shatter a car window in front of a newborn, refuse to look at man’s license & work visa… drag him out of his car, hit him, mock him for being Guatemalan (he’s from Mexico), laugh when he begs to say goodbye.

#ResistanceRoots #BlackHistoryMonth Clarence D. “Lucky” Lester was born on this day in 1923 in Richmond, Va. He was a pioneering African American fighter pilot and a prominent member of the Tuskegee Airmen, best known for his extraordinary aerial combat performance. /1

A study in Copenhagen finds that 70% of survey participants support removing parking spots to make room for street life, cycling, and vegetation. Sure, Copenhagen is not Los Angeles, but I think planners and electeds in the U.S. overestimate support for street parking

Katyal: "Here's the problem for Donald Trump: his DOJ, in our case, filed briefs to the courts that said Section 122 is inapplicable and the president can't use it. So now he's turned around & he's gonna have to somehow argue against his own DOJ's interpretation of the statute. I think that's tough"

love when democrats talk about kitchen table issues as if trans people and immigrants don’t have kitchen tables 🙃

these people treat being called racist like it is a slur, and treat slurs like they're mere differences of opinion

WOW! As of this morning only about 350 letters had been sent out urging our Delegates to hold data centers accountable and lower our energy costs. BUT after we blasted this call to action, we hit our goal of sending over 1,000 letters to our Delegates. Keep going! actionnetwork.org/letters/shif...

Without the dots, it looks like polygraph test results from a pathological liar.

Breaking Sky News: Peter Mandelson has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He was led out of his London home by police officers this afternoon. Mandelson has faced allegations that he leaked market-sensitive information from Downing Street to Jeffrey Epstein.

Breaking MS NOW: An ICE whistleblower is expected to testify at a congressional forum today that the agency is "lying to Congress and the American people" about its training of new recruits. Ryan Schwank was an ICE academy instructor for new recruits before he resigned earlier this month.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

We may have won silver but our players have a heart of gold 💛 unlike the disgusting US team and their behaviour in that locker room. The misogyny towards the female hockey team. Disgusting 🤮 but unfortunately this Canadian is not surprised in the least.

In this 2024 interview, Jack Hughes, who just scored the game-winning goal for the US Olympic hockey team, explains why it was important for him to embrace Pride Night when many other NHL players refused to do so.

"Kavanaugh doesn’t need rigid legal reasoning. His 62-page wallop is not for you or Congress or the companies that sued the administration or anyone else. It’s for Trump, so that Trump can see just how far Kavanaugh will go in order to ensure that his power swallows that of Congress and the courts."

Members of Congress are not powerless. They are uncreative. I am running for Congress to use the power of the office. Creatively, constructively and to its full extent. We want this. The only way to get it is one small dollar donation at a time: bethfordemocracy.com

ICE tackles and arrests New Jersey father outside his home, leaving his 6-year-old first-grade daughter at home alone. She goes out looking for him. "I got my boots and changed my clothes. I wanted to find some help to find my dad..." www.ms.now/the-weekend-...

Los Angeles General Medical Center 🙌 F*CK ICE!!!

J6 deniers trade on their belief in a stolen election & subsequent coverup. Our failure to hold Epstein's rich & powerful accomplices & enablers accountable will reinforce that belief. Justice for Epstein's victims may be necessary for the country to survive. I don't think that's hyperbole.

Be aware of which political party wants the American people to vote and will protect our collective right to do so…and which political party wants to restrict that right so that they may remain in power indefinitely. The difference could not be clearer than at the present moment.

ICYMI — The FBI director flew there on the taxpayer dime on a private jet to do this… Kash in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

Nick Shirley: “30 voters registered at a California UPS store!” 🤔 Paul Mitchell: um, people live above it. Look up, bro. 🙃 As usual this dude’s *reporting* is full of holes

This is exactly right. The Onion quietly left Twitter a month ago and... our weekly subscribers went up. It's because we're doing well here, on Instagram and on YouTube. As a business, being on Twitter is somewhere between useless or detrimental, unless you're selling boner pills.

Henrietta Lacks was a Black woman whose (ovarian) cancer cells were used wo her/her family’s consent. Her cells are what would become the HeLa cell, the first immortalized human cell line & one of the most important in medical research. #BackHistoryMonth

Imagine if HEALTHCARE WAS FREE in America, as it is in Greenland. Just imagine. 🇺🇸🇬🇱

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

I'm asking that we all raise our political expectations. We deserve good things.

Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good. Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies. So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.

I am heading to Ukraine February 28-March 21. All my travel and lodging is booked. I was just missing the train from Kyiv-Dnipro which wasn’t available until today. I will be supporting the nonprofit Dobra Sprava. Please follow my dispatches here. www.ukrainetrustchain.org

"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 *** As of the end of January, there have been no convictions."

This message is for anyone involved in the administration or working for them directly or indirectly Just stop doing what he tells you to do :) It’s just that simply. Disobey. Deny. Slow things down. Act confused. Sabotage things. Make a mess of the paperwork.

The state’s high court ruled the “Constitution as it stands is clear that it does not permit funneling public education funds outside the common public school system.” It was another setback for supporters of charter schools, who have attempted for years to gain a foothold in the state.

Kristi Noem needs to lose her job. If you agree, click below and demand your representatives support the effort to impeach this utter disgrace of a DHS Secretary.

Thank you for this @kellycbooz.bsky.social. You’re right that the Minnesota kindness that is sometimes dismissed as quaint is actually a form of radical care. I’ve seen and experienced it—and I’m proud of our members and staff for supporting the community. sharemylesson.com/blog/minneso...

Good news!

We actually have a good amount of supporters who disagree with me on a number of key issues. Every single one of them says they’re voting for me because they know where I stand and I won’t lie to them. The bar is in hell.
