EVERYTHING that Trump/Musk/MAGA/GOP support, espouse, enact, or are against WILL harm 98% of all Americans, be it financially, physically, mentally, somehow, in some way. If not immediately, in the months and years ahead.
Think about it.

Excellent, clarifying piece on the (real) legal pathway that Minnesota has to prosecute the ICE agent who shot and killed a woman today.
No, federal agents do not have absolute immunity from start charges, no matter what the Trump administration claims.

Wrote a piece for @slate.com explaining that states have a long history of prosecuting federal officers when they allegedly use excessive force. Federal officers are only immune from such prosecutions when they act reasonably in carrying out lawful duties.
Minnesota Could Prosecute the ICE Shooter. Trump Can’t Pardon Him.
Shortly after an ICE officer shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, city leaders began looking into whether the officer had violated state criminal law.

Good lord. Three shots when the woman was driving away. ICE murdered a woman in Minneapolis an hour ago.

The Trump economy: over 8,000 retail locations closed in 2025, up +12% from 2024. Forever 21, Joann, Rite Aid, and Party City all closed their physical locations, thx to high inflation, high operating costs and online shopping. Experts predict 2026 likely could be worse..

Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured.
Trump then pardoned the attackers.
He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.

I wrote section 230 to protect user speech, not a company's own speech. I've long said AI chatbot outputs are not protected by 230 and that it is not a close call. Given that the Trump administration is going to the mat to protect pedophiles, states should step in to hold Musk and X accountable.
I am not a Section 230 expert but being that Twitter is creating and publishing these photos I wonder if they actually have any civil legal protection? @kenwhite.bsky.social ? @akivamcohen.bsky.social ?

Trump says he’s “pro-police” and “tough on crime”, yet he unleashed 1,500+ criminals onto our streets, many of whom assaulted law enforcement on J6. Since Trump’s pardons, they’ve committed:
- Kidnapping
- Sexual assault
- Burglary
- Death threats against elected officials

Why not annex Cuba? 90 miles from our border, a decent healthcare system, and would become flooded w/investment $. Those beaches!
However, if you don't think Puerto Rico shouldn't be the 51st state the hypocrisy of taking over Cuba will make your head explode.

As of this week, millions of Americans are now paying thousands more for health insurance.
If the President and Congressional GOP think Washington has the capacity to "run" Venezuela right now, why won't they fix the insurance cost crisis they've created here at home?

I carry no water for Maduro - bad actor. But the way the Trump admin has stitched together its new war is deeply troubling: no congressional approval, violating due process rights, sending men to be tortured, attacking a foreign country & killing people on boats without transparency, etc.
