Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested for their reporting in Minnesota. A free press is constitutionally protected and essential, especially when federal power is being abused in ways that demand accountability and transparency. www.npr.org/2026/01/30/n...

It appears there were more people protesting Trump outside his venue in Iowa than there were to hear him speak inside the venue…in Iowa.

Families are struggling to afford healthcare, food, rent, & childcare.
Instead of investing in people, Felon Trump supercharged funding for ICE. Violence from this administration isn’t a threat, it’s happening now.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

At least we know that while federal agents are killing people for using cell phones and the country is going to shit, Trump was working hard playing golf, hosting a screening for Melania’s movie, and rage-posting about his ballroom.

Yes, the GOP controls Congress. That's why it's key to show Congress COULD stop the madness. And it's not just the DHS bill. Congress could repeal the prior multi-year $75b for DHS; set up a special investigative committee (cf. Watergate); amend the Insurrection Act; etc.

Dems should introduce lots of such legislation, demand hearings and debate, make a huge fuss, use paid media to call out GOP members who are blocking their consideration--and make clear this GOP Congress is enabling the madness.

The worst politicians in America are about to quote Martin Luther King Jr.
You can’t quote “I have a dream” on MLK Day then legislate against that dream every other day of the year.

Minnesotans: The MN National Guard is on standby and distinguishable by high-visibility reflective vests. This is how Guard members are identified vs federal agents, who do not wear these vests. Knowing the difference matters for public safety.

Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.
