DHS was created to FIGHT terrorists, not to BE terrorists. It needs to be defunded by congress in 2027, and we should select candidates who run on that platform.

A college philosophy professor in Texas has been told he can't teach about a rather minor philosopher called "Plato" because of new restrictions on teaching about race and gender.

We have become such a silly, stupid country.

Where are all the good guys with guns? The people who have spent the last 50 years telling us that we had to make sure every American has a gun in case we needed them to protect ourselves from tyranny?

And where are the stories to point this out (they may be there; I just don't know)?

The works of Plato are now being banned at schools in the United States.

Tell me again how censorship is a European problem? 🤔

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

Swalwell: You better believe that accountability is coming. Immunity is going to be stripped. And to Kristi Noem, Tom “Cashbag” Homan, Greg Bovino—your asses are going to be in these witness chairs.

Masked government agents are killing people in the streets, abducting people from their homes in the middle of the night, and arresting those who speak out.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

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.

Abolishing ICE is the bare minimum.

We need to dismantle DHS. We need restitution. And we need trials.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

Our first ad of 2026! Because politics stuck in 2006 won't meet the moment.

It's time to stand up to ICE, white supremacists, and the billionaire oligarchy.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

“No room at the Inn” is a biblical reference about immigrants (Jesus’ parents) being turned away. Not the government. Way to go, Hilton! The 3rd Amendment protects private entities from having to house the government.
