"ICE has become notorious for its cruelty, abuses of civil liberties & racial profiling...Dems have hesitated to call for its abolition, for fear of seeming 'soft on crime.' But there is a way out: Abolish ICE & give the money to state & local cops." thehill.com/opinion/immi...
What a dim-wit. Culture comes from the base upward, not the top down.
Why the hold up? There is no reason to wait.
Scientists breathe new life into climate website after shutdown under Trump: Climate.gov, which went dark this summer, set to be revived by volunteers as climate.us with expanded mission www.theguardian.com/environment/...
Let there be Dante’s Inferno at the 19th hole.
Good.
They don’t care if you have papers or not. What they care about is whether you look like an immigrant from south of the border.
The damage this man has done is incalculable.
George is on a roll today. 🤣
Indeed! #ReverseCitizensUnited
🪬🧿 There is no amount of money, oil, or gold in the world that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.
OMG…LMAO

They are all women haters.
Is being an abuser, control freak, criminal, part of the GOP job requirements? It’s all I ever see, they are monsters 😡👇🏼👇🏼
“…I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.” My latest in @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/honoring-a...
Jain: We have a U.S. Attorney’s Office that is also facing a vacancy crisis. And that is at least partially because the predecessor to the current U.S. Attorney, Jeanine Pirro, was Ed Martin. He fired more than 20 prosecutors whose only “crime” was prosecuting violent January 6 insurrectionists.
"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:
🚨BREAKING: Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe (R) reinforced GOP power grabs sweeping the country, calling a special legislative session Friday to redraw congressional districts and weaken the ability of voters to pass laws through ballot initiatives. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
He was a “diety old man” when he was 30.
As Israel’s tactics in Gaza have increasingly provoked international condemnation, rabbis across the world are speaking out against the Israeli government’s conduct in the war, on moral and religious grounds.
My heart breaks into 10,000 pieces once again.
Japan Post just announced they will no longer deliver mail to the United States, joining Germany, Austria, Denmark, Italy, France, and Sweden.
Every dictator in history has claimed that they’ll only use their powers to go after the worst of the worst. Every dictator in history has lied. Donald Trump is no different.
Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion
The memoir will be released just months after Giuffre’s death.

This is a step towards communism…the state owning the production/businesses. Maga does not get the implication here. They are too damn stupid and do not know what communism actually is.
Does anyone believe that Ghislaine Maxwell is credible? HELL NO! RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!
I am in my 70s and could do better.
Experts and members of the public voiced overwhelming opposition to the US EPA’s plan to rescind its key greenhouse gas “endangerment finding” and vehicle emissions standards.
Maybe she is referring to Bill Clinton.
How about some GOOD NEWS to start your day? 😀 A Federal judge has smacked down Florida's book ban law "Don't Say Gay".

We must resolve to tax the oligarchs out of existence. There is no reason for extreme wealth to exist.
“Stealing” girls implies they are commodities and non-human.
One was beaten unconscious. Others were covered in bruises, struggling to walk or vomiting blood. Another said he’d been sexually assaulted. These are the stories of 16 former detainees who were deported to El Salvador’s mega prison.
Lovely! As a Mainer for several decades this speaks to me. Thank you!
Does Trump know that a golfer’s handicap is his Equity? Maybe someone should tell him.
Former Rep. Wiley Nickel dropped his bid for North Carolina’s open Senate seat Tuesday and endorsed Roy Cooper, all but clearing the field for the former Democratic governor.
Her name was Diana. She was 23 years old and 7 months pregnant. Russia murdered her today in an attack on the maternity hospital in Kamyanske.
In The Handmaid’s Tale, the Commanders preach purity but sneak off to brothels. It’s not fiction, it’s a mirror. The most repressed are often the most controlling. If they just let themselves enjoy life, maybe they wouldn’t burn the world trying to punish everyone else for enjoying it.
BREAKING: New documents and testimony make it clear that Emil Bove urged DOJ officials to defy court orders – then misled the Judiciary Committee about it. The facts are disqualifying. And the timeline is damning. Let's break it down. 🧵
The oligarchs really are a heinous group.
LOL I hope it is Big Ugly Dick.
Truth Bomb
Marc is a National Treasure. When we come out the other side of this nightmare, it will be in great part due to Marc and all his efforts.
The extremely simple fact is that Jeff Epstein was the most notorious child sex trafficker in history, and the President of the US was his close personal friend for decades Acting like this is complicated is absurd. The man knew what Epstein did, didn't care, and participated
I yelled from the yardarms to use billboards in red states during the run up to the election. This is the best way to reach uninformed voters. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted away—for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest? Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.
Zoom in on the last photo. The morning my late mother left this world I couldn’t sleep. So I took a ride to the beach to find some peace. This message was what I saw #photography #sun #chaserofthesun #nature
Thousands of people marching through Lower Manhattan now demanding ICE get out of New York City.
You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.
The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.
Met an active duty member of the military yesterday who filed conscientious objector paperwork in response to deployment of military on U.S. soil. Was told multiple Army have filed, unknown quantities in other branches.
Awakened MAGAts need to line the parade route with a sea of red posters:
Trump has no clue how US drugs are priced. Stupidity + Trump = Strumpidity
@brucespringsteen.net Needs to write new lyrics to Born in the USA
On the left is the trophy given to the Saudi backed LIV golf tournament hosted by Trump & on the right is what remained of the World Trade Center after the terrorist attacks on 9/11👀
Today we are reminded why Trump went bankrupt six times. He has no idea how to run a company or a country.
"linkedin clearly said this was a remote position."
Legacy media is a BIG PROBLEM. We need to divest News from Opinion…which is how it worked back in the 60s and 70s. Profits and clicks were not infecting the media back then the way they are now.
But he didn't place any symbolic tariffs on Russia and only levied the minimal baseline 10% tariffs on countries like Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Armenia, and Georgia that Russia uses to circumvent sanctions. Got it. 🙄
Watching the news lately, one gets the sense that world leaders and economists everywhere are staring at the unhinged figure leading the United States, quietly asking themselves how they’re supposed to manage four more years of this madness.

‘They’re Raping Us Too?’ Andrew Ross Sorkin Hammers Trump Commerce Secretary For Putting Tariffs On Countries With Trade Surpluses https://twp.ai/4imPQF
Other than Russia, everyone got tariffed.
Yes exactly.
NO ONE CAN PROVE THEIR CITIZENSHIP. Anyone can enter a town hall and buy certified copies of birth/death/marriage certificates. Possessing a certificate does not prove the bearer is the person on the certificate, or prove citizenship. It proves you paid for the certificate and nothing more.
Terrifying!
Using ICE to SWAT pols who criticize the administration.
I don't want Canada or Greenland… I want PBS, Social Security, and The Smithsonian. CAN YOU SAY THE SAME?! 🤚
This is really the whole ball game right now, *particularly* among the institutions that make up civil society. (my parents definitely had this poster when I was growing up)
WTF!!!
Add this to research being done at Universities…and it makes me wonder exactly how much $$$ is actually spent by Big Pharma on the drugs they produce.
Putin Wants Trump to Formally Recognise All Land Russia Has Taken in Ukraine, Kommersant Reports
I talked with FTC commissioner Alvaro Bedoya, who was illegally fired by the White House yesterday. “I think it’s really important that people pay attention to the fact, for example, that Amazon cut a deal with the First Lady to feature her in a documentary…”
Just WOW! They are asking for a showdown.
Fun fact: Donald Trump’s sister was the federal judge who ruled unconstitutional the immigration law the Trump administration is now using to deport a pro-Palestinian protester www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...
1/2/ "Top Commerce Dept official sent a blistering email to his former colleagues on his way out the door Sunday warning that #Trump admin is poised to unduly enrich #Musk ’s satellite internet co. w $ for rural broadband."
Can't let Yosemite and Joshua Tree stand alone in their distress signals! Solidarity from the right coast.
A federal court’s jurisdiction does *not* stop at the water’s edge. The question is whether the *defendants* are subject to the court order, not *where* the conduct being challenged takes place. Were it otherwise, the government could act lawlessly overseas and courts would be powerless to stop it.
So, someone lied? www.ssa.gov/news/press/r...
This says it all.
Whether Judge Boasberg was correct on the law is largely irrelevant to whether the government is in contempt for willfully disobeying it. If the Trump administration knew there was an order from a federal judge and then willfully violated it, that is the end of the analysis.
Meep, meep! Lol
Twenty Democratic attorneys general have sued the Trump administration in federal court and filed for a temporary restraining order against nearly two dozen federal agencies, arguing that the mass layoffs of thousands of federal probationary employees in recent weeks were conducted illegally.
They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.
