This is absolutely heartbreaking

Dr. Hossam's lawyers warns: his heart is exhausted, his body shattered from continuous torture, & the freezing temperatures in his cell are worsening his suffering.

Do not let the voice of the doctor who saved lives fade away 💔

Alex Pretti killers: Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez.
Renee Good killer: Jonathan Ross.

All three have something major thing in common. The Trump regime openly lied about their crimes and tried to cover them up, going as far as going on TV to defame & smear the victims as terrorists.

At least 28.6 million people across #Myanmar were exposed to violence in 2025. Since the attempted coup in 2021, violence linked to the civil war has spread nationwide, affecting civilians in all parts of the country.

Gavin Newsom: “ You will not have a country if he rigs this election — you will have a president who will be running for a third term

He is wrecking this country, wrecking the economy. He's a lawless president. Wake up, America — wake up to what's going on”

Between seizing ballots in Georgia, trying to leverage Minnesota to turn over its sensitive voter data, and political prosecutions, the DOJ is laying the groundwork to subvert the 2026 elections. I created Democracy Docket for times like this. Help it grow by supporting it now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Maher Tarabishi was detained in October during a scheduled check-in at an ICE facility.

He was the primary caretaker of his son, who died last week.

The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral.

ICE reportedly denied the request.

Unimaginable cruelty.

An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.

Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.

Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

There are still many unknowns about the deal about Greenland, but it looks like Europe's pressure worked. The military deployments to Greenland had the desired effect, and Europe's defiant response to Trump's tariff threats has led to him now taking an off-ramp.

Right after Renee Good shifted into drive, Johnathan Ross unholstered his weapon. He shot her three times as she tried to drive away from him and then called her a “fucking bitch.”

Yet, the DOJ is refusing to investigate Ross. Minnesota must.

Agree!
She was absolutely right. And she would have been an amazing President.

(WSJ) I find it odd that the Journal is posting an article that states the obvious: that US consumers and citizens are paying the tariffs that Trump is applying to goods shipped here. Haven't we learned this month, years, decades ago?

The struggle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right.

The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship.

Everyone must choose which side they’re on.
