They're CELEBRATING a military-style assault on a Chicago apartment building - doors broken down, naked children taken outside, ziptied & taken from their parents, US citizens held for hours, non-citizens disappeared.

Sicko co-POTUS Trump & Miller want this in YOUR community too.

This is how they're spending our tax money. Porn for scared weak little men.

Wow - Judge Xinis is DONE with DOJ making claims w/o evidence, delay tactics, and continually moving the goalposts. She's holding their feet to the fire. Any take on tone of voice, etc @rparloff.bsky.social ? Friday should be a barn-burner.

First DOJ, now POTUS, have lost all credibility with judges - a very sad state of affairs.

Judge Immergut also serves on the FISA court, which means she's HIGHLY regarded by {checks notes} John Roberts, who appointed her.

A Google AI summary said that at a soccer match I planned to attend, gates would open at 6 pm, "2 hours before the 7:30 start." Kinda made me wonder...

Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

Was that a typo? Think you meant to say Billionaire Bailout Bill, @crockett.house.gov

It would really help if he didn't look so damn uncomfortable saying it.

New leadership, please.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social you're getting there.

Next time less wordy & lawyerly: Not true. Undocumented immigrants can't enroll in these programs. The President is lying to distract you from the FACT that Republicans are taking coverage & increasing costs for millions of American citizens.

Is this somehow - in some sick, twisted way - connected to Kirk? Trying to understand why he'd specifically target a Mormon church.

Why isn't this the top story everywhere? Why isn't every newspaper calling for Homan to resign?
