In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence.

In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home.

This video is the perfect encapsulation of the illegal, thuggish, unprovoked, violent conduct of ICE. Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social, I trust that you and the House Homeland Security Committee will have interest in this.

Texas has a population of 33 million. 40% of the state is Hispanic. The state borders Mexico, so why isn't ICE operating in Texas?

Because it's not about immigration. It's a political maneuver to emotionally abuse and psychologically traumatize people into submission in Democratic-controlled states

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

I woke to rain and dreadful news of our felonious president engaging in more illegal acts. Moments of joy were fleeting; the only photo I took today was of lichen (apparently a sign of clean air).

Most of us are familiar with the term “filibuster” to describe hijacking legislative debate in the U.S. Senate. In military history, however, a filibuster was someone engaged in an illegal military expedition into a foreign country to foment revolution or seize territory. /1

If your position is that regime change should be forced on countries where the president does not respect democratic norms and regularly kidnaps opponents using an officially sanctioned paramiliatary, have I got news for you about your position on the United States

So fmr Honduran President Hernandez voluntarily surrendered, and was duly extradited, tried and convicted for drug trafficking, and Trump pardoned him 6w ago.

And this morning, Trump illegally attacks Venezuela and abducts its president and his wife purportedly to try them for drug trafficking.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

White supremacy is making up a story about fraud at a Somali run daycare then shutting off funding based on that lie, but ignoring the trillions in missing dollars at the Pentagon which relentlessly bombs Somalia and other Black and brown majority nations.

We’re sleepwalking into a disaster
5 million-plus kindergartners now live in counties where schools don’t have “herd immunity” for measles, Washington Post reporters found.

WaPo also built a tool to look up your own county.
