ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

It has to be said - again and out loud - that it’s Republicans in Congress who’ve unshackled him.

The administration simultaneously says it needs to lay off employees because it is out of money and also that Kristi Noem needs two private jets because it is not safe for her to travel through the airports where her propaganda is running 24/7

Why do you think he hired cosplayers pretending to be military for ICE? He wants them to provoke violence, then invoke the insurrection act. They are BEGGING people to attack them, and are really annoyed when people just laugh at them - like in Portland. They want […]

The sigh I expel when you undermine the whole “without fear or favor” part by using Trump and Hegseth’s make-believe name for the Defense Department.
CNN is now using the Trump preferred “Department of War” name in its official statements

This is the President explicitly threatening to withhold federal funds from New York City if voters elect a candidate he opposes.
This is an unlawful attempt to coerce voters through federal financial threats and a textbook example of voter intimidation to influence the outcome of a local election.

This is absolutely heartbreaking. This man should not have been murdered. His children should still have a father. His wife should not have to tell people her trauma.
This government is committing war crimes.

The night after the murder of Melissa Hortman, the Democratic legislator in Minnesota, the Yankees were at the Red Sox and neither team requested a moment of silence.
For an actual public servant.
Who we choose to hold a moment of silence for and who we do not are silences that speak volumes.

Btw, on the same day Charlie Kirk was killed, three students at a Colorado high school were also shot, including one thought to be the shooter. Still, Second Amendment and all that or, as Kirk himself might say, ‘Freedom’.
For those on the right/MAGA who’re in the depths of despair over the untimely death of Charlie Kirk, here’s a little Jedi mind trick that should help you accelerate your grieving process: Just pretend Mr. Kirk was an elementary school student! You’ll be over it in no time!
