Getting the impression that ICE is gearing up for a pogrom in Springfield, Ohio, which was ground zero of Vance’s lies about Haitians during the campaign. Haitians lose temporary protected status on February 3rd. Reporters, lawyers, neighbors — please get ready.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

Tillis is spot on. The Senate can't confirm a Trump toady to succeed Powell at the Fed. The rest of the game is now out in the open, and it doesn't end well.

This judge ordered the Trump Administration to release all its SNAP funding by Friday because, in his own words, "Children are immediately at risk of going hungry."

How sick do you have to be to appeal that order?

Our President straight up wants kids to starve.

NEW: Senator Durbin and I are demanding that Kristi Noem put a stop to DHS arresting people for filming agents attacking their neighbors.

How dare DHS call foul play while it uses taxpayer dollars to record propaganda videos?

It is legal to record. It's called accountability.

I cannot stress this enough.

We are protesting Broadview because of the human rights violations happening within the ICE facility.

If they are willing to assault me on camera, imagine what they are doing to detainees behind boarded-up windows.
Congressional candidate @katmabu.bsky.social was thrown to the ground by ICE agents during a Chicago protest.

“That is what these officers are willing to do when there is press and cameras around," she says, adding that they are "committing human rights abuses" inside.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

House and Senate republicans are actually calling out the Trump administration for their plans to withdraw from NATO's Supreme Allied Command Europe - the primary command that oversees support for Ukraine, and the first step in abandoning NATO allies.

I refuse to vote for Republicans’ slush fund bill that grants Trump and Elon Musk permission to continue rigging our government and our economy against the middle class.

It would greenlight even more chaos and more cuts to critical programs.

Hell no, I cannot support that.

What Really Happened With the DDoS Attacks That Took Down X
Elon Musk said a “massive cyberattack” disrupted X on Monday and pointed to “IP addresses originating in the Ukraine area” as the source of the attack. Security experts say that's not how it works.
