Groundhog Day live updates: Punxsutawney Phil predicts 6 more weeks of winter
Tens of thousands of people are gathering for Punxsutawney Phil, a groundhog that lives in a tree stump, to predict if the already long and cold winter across much of the United States will go on for another six weeks or if an early spring is around the corner.

One demotion cannot detract from accountability.
Greg Bovino and Trump’s agents must still be held responsible for the killings and the damage they’ve done to America.

Good afternoon from downtown Chicago, where despite heavy snowfall, thousands have gathered for an anti-ICE/CBP demonstration in solidarity with the Twin Cities. More are still streaming in.
Lt. Illinois Gov. Juliana Stratton just addressed the crowd, and called for ICE to be abolished.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

The entire Trump White House is complicit. Every Member of Congress who voted for a massive increase in ICE funding last summer is complicit. Every Republican in the House who watched Renee Good’s murder & refused to demand Speaker Johnson conduct oversight is complicit. It is eternally damning.
