Jeffries: "The killing of Renee Nicole Good was an abomination, a disgrace, and blood is clearly on the hands of those individuals within the admin who have been pushing an extreme policy that has nothing to do with immigration enforcement connected to removing violent felons from this country"

The video does more than raise questions about the bogus claims of Trump and Noem.

this certainly contradicts the statement put out by the feds, as in it is completely and utterly different

good for you @pbump.com. i know it wasn’t your intention but this was an act of bravery and profound decency. cable news is relentlessly dehumanizing and soul-corroding; we need as many examples as we can to remind ourselves that we are still human beings.

As we begin 2026, a new development threatens to further undermine voting by mail. A recent rule change at the U.S. Postal Service means that postmarks will no longer reflect the date a piece of mail was deposited at a local post office. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/how-...

Legitimate broadcast networks (not Fox News or CBS News) MUST air the videos of the ICE agent shooting and killing a woman in Minneapolis quickly. The administration's narrative of what happens doesn't hold up at all to the video of what actually happened. This is a journalistic imperative.

Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him.

Put this photo on the front page of every newspaper in America.

I am deeply troubled and saddened to hear that ICE shot and killed a U.S. citizen earlier today.

We know the Trump Admin is all too comfortable lying to Americans, which is why we need more details and a full, independent investigation into what happened instead of taking their word for it.

I’m glad to see Bill say this. But when after a century of just the type of abuse we saw today - relentless and cruel, ensnaring our children and intimidating our communities - young Black people said in frustration, anger, and demand for change “defund the police” - so many of you denounced them.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

This day nearly broke me, so I'm reminded:

- They want to break us.
- Things will get worse before they get better.
- They will not break us, and there are a hell of a lot more of us than there are of them.

So on the fuck we go.

The failure of our elites to hold Trump accountable for January 6th is as disgraceful as what happened on that awful day.

Since 2010, 35 democratic leaders around the world have been criminally convicted. Only Trump went unpunished and unconstrained.

Now he threatens democracy at home and abroad.

By adopting the administration’s language, the mainstream media has helped normalize Trump’s Venezuela escalation instead of interrogating its legality or consequences.

For those who missed it, the federal government is trying to obtain the personal information of every person in the US to build a probably illegal set of voting rolls. Supposedly this is to root out undocumented people registered to vote. I am thinking it's as likely to be used to find Dem voters.
