Nine

and it's still January.
Read their names.
Nine people have died in ICE custody or during ICE operations in 2026.
Every one of them mattered.

Call Congress. ICE should NOT be funded.

With the #Eagles no longer in the playoffs, I'm now rooting for the best color schemes to watch in between Super Bowl commercials.

Watching #Noem so blatantly lie about ICE murdering a peaceful protestor today makes me really think that puppy she shoot was probably a really good dog.

i know the New 52 was...divisive, but i love the early inclusion of Cyborg into the Justice League.

Grew up on Super Friends and seeing a Black, disabled hero join the team in the last season...Finally a hero with hair like mine!

Okay, back to the real world.

me after reading: Oh snap! ..."now focuses on terrorism stemming from 'class-based or economic grievances.'" That's [real] Americans.

i know the sista filming the #JackSmith hearing was just doing her job, but

yo, those facial expressions when the GOP was talking, though...

The GOP in the #JackSmith hearing is bending over backwards, forwards, ever-which-way to protect a guy who sent a mob to the Capital five years ago to kill them.

First up #GymJordan, the guy famous for covering up crimes and refusing to wear a jacket in the cold.
HAPPENING NOW: Jack Smith is about to testify publicly for the first time.

Dear @ms.now,

Once again, why are you broadcasting the rantings of an orange madman?

Anyone who's ever taken the 7 train knows when a crazy guy from Queens starts talking, best to ignore him.

Reports say mechanics opened the fuse box and found the #EpsteinFiles.
Trump rapid response: "After takeoff, the AF1 crew identified a minor electrical issue. Out of an abundance of caution, AF1 is returning to Joint Base Andrews. The President and team will board a different aircraft and continue on to Switzerland."

"How dare a Black person under siege dress like a white man going to McDonalds."
Sorry, but I’m not mad at this. Are you?

Or is it, “2A for me, but not for thee”?

dropping the f-bomb seems like a lower temperature than killing a woman a bombing car full of kids.
