CBP agents knocked on an El Paso home at 7:15 a.m.

The owner asked to secure his Rottweiler, Chop, in the bathroom.

While he got his ID, agents opened the door and shot Chop.

The family tried to save him as he bled out on the kitchen floor.

Hundreds of people who were once detained at "Alligator Alcatraz" have disappeared.

Lawyers and family members have been unable to reach them.

It’s as if they never existed.

What did the government do to them?

WHO is this woman. When was this, and where is she NOW after ICE hit her car and then abducted her. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

“YOU hit HER.”

CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

Baldwin: Our farmers are facing incredible headwinds. A lot of the fertilizer inputs come from Canada. Those have shot up because of tariffs. About a quarter of all farmers use the ACA for their health care coverage. This president is just contributing to the headwinds that our farmers are facing.

Trump put a hit on Epstein.

His prison cell was never dusted for prints or examined for DNA evidence after his death.

Is there anybody on the planet who thinks this was an oversight?

Disability benefits processes, “reforms”, and cuts kill people.

They kill disabled people through poverty.
They kill disabled people through fear.

And all the current rhetoric, hate, and misinformation kills more.

Don't let anyone tell you that protesting is pointless, especially folks who mock it as "baby's first resistance."

First, it's wonderful to be among a bunch of people who feel the way you do about the way things are going.

Second, it drives the administration CRAZY.

Kelly: I really worry about those aviators, drone operators, special forces guys that are in the Caribbean right now striking these boats and whether or not this is legal..

There’s no authorization for the use of military force. The Congress has not given that to the president. He hasn’t asked.

If you would have described the traits of hard core MAGAs and Trump ten years ago…. Those very same people would have called those people SNOWFLAKES.

Constantly whining, always the victim, always angry at everyone else.

Never forget that when Bondi was appointed, Democracy Docket immediately called her out while The Washington Post gave her a thumbs up.

If you value independent, pro-democracy media that won't bow down or obey, support Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0
