boy yeah it sure was super bad for clinton to describe the avowedly illiberal and violent and chauvinist elements behind MAGA as deplorable. she definitely should feel bad about that. i’m glad so many men in journalism have made sure to keep banging the drum on that.

AG Kekrh Ellison just dropped the mic!
Hayes: The president was asked should they be sharing evidence—his response was no, because Minnesota's corrupt.

Ellison: I will point out no president that I've ever heard of received a $400 million plane from a foreign country trying to curry favor with him, crypto deals, golf courses.

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

I think nothing makes people lose trust in news organizations as much as when they’ve seen something with their own eyes — and then see news coverage that doesn’t comport with what they themselves experienced. presswatchers.org/2026/01/why-...
Why would anyone trust a news organization that treats obvious truths as debatable? | Press Watch
The ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole Good was the aggressor, not the victim. That’s not a hard one.

Yeah Joe Biden was a great president. And Kamala Harris was a great VP. I truly believe that they were so good at some things that even with him fucking them up for four years they will still hold at the end when we hopefully replace him. That's how good they were.

Please understand what it means when journalists are evacuating their family members out of town.

In any other country, we would be approaching "foreign sanctions" territory
We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

I'm confident that most people, including most millionaires, will support a Millionaires' Tax where wealthy folks pay a bit more and Washington families and small businesses get tax relief.

These dollars are going to help out thousands and thousands of Washingtonians.

I'm requesting legislation establishing that if you're not a law enforcement officer, you can't be wearing something that gives the impression you are.

I also completely support the concept to ban face coverings for law enforcement officers, which Sen. Valdez has proposed.

She smiles at the man who shoots her and says she isn't mad at him. Clearly initiates the effort to leave when the aggressive agents arrive.
The question now (not that this was in question) isn't who's telling the truth. It's when DHS had this video and knew that what they were saying was a lie.
🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.

They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.

Stop the lies.

There it is.
He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

These are the kind of things that need to be elevated. A lot of Democrats do things! A lot of Bluesky either doesn’t notice, doesn’t care, OR thinks it’s meaningless anyway. Which is why this place is a toxic cesspool, just better than the kiddie porn factory we all left.
ICE obstructed congressional oversight of detention facilities. Some said Congress had no way to stop them.

Not me.

Instead, I sued ICE — and the Federal court in my lawsuit (Neguse et. al v. ICE) just recently ruled in our favor.

We must keep pushing for accountability and the rule of law.

Kristi Noem's incompetent leadership - from FEMA to ICE - has terrorized our communities and put us all in danger. The tragic murder of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis underscores this.

I support @robinkelly.house.gov's effort to impeach Secretary Noem — she must resign or be removed from office.
I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

As they say: follow the money. When you see the president invading foreign countries & stealing oil, corporate giveaways, & talking about using foreign banking—you have to ask—what is actually going on here?

We have GOT to stop infantilizing and coddling these grown voters. They made a decision they thought would only hurt me. On purpose. They knew what they were doing.
If you want to call it willful ignorance that’s fine but my point stands: Most people do not actually watch or read h the news.

No one is coming to save this country.
