So you gave a country that funded not one but two attacks on the WTC, an air force base on American soil? Way to keep America safe.

I’m proud to say that in just my second term in Congress, I was named the most effective member of our New Jersey House delegation.

As governor, I’m prepared to fight just as hard for a safer, more affordable New Jersey in Trenton and deliver real results.

George Retes was born in America and served honorably in the Army. But on July 10, 2025, ICE agents engulfed his car in tear gas, pepper-sprayed him in the face, detained him, and placed him on suicide watch.

Retes joined @timmiller.bsky.social of @thebulwark.com to tell this horrific story.

Tim Dillion is def full MAGA. He was also gung-ho to be a part of the Riyadh Comedy Festival...until they revoked his invite. My guess is they found out he was gay.

I have never in my life seen anything like what is going on between the Broadview police force and ICE. These federal agents just do not give a shit about any kind of back the blue solidarity. Gas, verbal abuse, time wasting.

Outside of the Broadview ICE facility, a state trooper tells the delegation attempting to have communion with detainees that ICE has denied their request.

Someone tell Trump Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize bc “It goes to people with courage & integrity”

Deirdre @dlpr.bsky.social · 3d

16yrs ago today, President Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy & co-operation between peoples. AND guess what, Dems didn’t have to campaign on every news station w/ vomit inducing, ass kissing rhetoric for him to receive it. 🏆
