Dark thoughts this morning…how must it feel to be Europe right now with Russian aggression ascending and Trump back in power. There will be no USA to storm the beaches this time…they will stand with the enemy. What has America done?

Don’t look away from MN. ICE is still wreaking havoc across the state - changing their tactics to deceive Minnesotans - pretending to be construction workers or folks delivering groceries. Still over 2,000 ICE agents in the state. They’re not going anywhere, your anger and outrage shouldn’t either.

Rep. Kennedy: Will you commit to immediately unmasking every ICE agent and requiring them to wear standard uniforms with identifiable badges?
ICE Chief Lyons: No.
Rep. Kennedy: Your answer is completely unacceptable.

Funny how MAGA melted down over the Bad Bunny halftime show when this official Trump ad from 2020 was in Spanish and featured both the Mexican and Puerto Rican flags

📌On this date in 1936, Nazi Germany passed a law investing the Gestapo secret police with absolute authority exempt from any legal review.
Just in case you are still somehow confused by the chilling parallels with Republicans’ murdering ICE.

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

Republicans - Refuse to wear masks to save lives, but gleefully put them on to end lives.
FOX NEWS: When it comes to masks & federal agents, is that something Republicans will stand firm on?
HUSTED: That's something for the president, and Tom Homan, & DHS to determine what's safe. It's been below 0 in Mpls. If you're going to be doing work outside, having a mask on is a practical issue

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: “All of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: “If he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

Did I misremember or did I actually see nearly naked young women/girls writhing around in large martini glasses at Trump’s motel a few months back?

Rep Mark Alford (R-MO) says House Rs are "investigating" Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show & talking with FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr. Alford says he didn't watch the whole thing & also doesn't know Spanish but suspects it might have been "much worse than the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction"

Steve Bannon, Trump’s confidante & henchman, had an intimate relationship w/Epstein. So why hasn’t he been hauled before Congress to answer questions?
My latest: Bannon’s communications w/Epstein, legal efforts to hide them, & Bannon’s hours of Epstein video he's hiding.
