Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

It’s fascinating for non-Natives (and non-Black people) but you don’t hear us celebrating the fact that an Indigenous American woman’s DNA is preserved in Icelandic mitochondrial DNA because it means she was captured, enslaved and raped by Vikings.

Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

I'm skimming through mentions of Trump in the Trump-Epstein Files, and there's one thing that I'm thinking over and over:

All we had to do was believe the women.

There are dozens of stories in here that make me ill. Do you really believe these are all lies?

If this is the same Peter Attia MD who was just revealed as one of Bari Weiss's big new additions to CBS News, he can just tell the stories about the "outrageous" life Jeffrey Epstein led on the Evening News.

Think of the ratings!
And Peter Attia MD telling Epstein the biggest problem with being his friend is he can’t tell anyone about the life he lives. Nice.

Amazon has cut a combined 28,000 jobs since October. Its CEO made $40M+ in 2024

UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M.

HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

In a blistering ruling, a Bush-appointed conservative federal judge said that ICE "has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence."

Congress must not give one more cent to this rogue agency.

A $1.2 Trillion ‘Rip Off’: Report Spotlights Massive Scale of Medicare Advantage Fraud www.commondreams.org/news/medicar...
This scam has been going on for decades. These uber-wealthy companies hire celebrities to make these plans look legit, but they are expensive, and the benefits are minimal
A $1.2 Trillion ‘Rip Off’: Report Spotlights Massive Scale of Medicare Advantage Fraud | Common Dreams
"These private insurer-run plans are more expensive AND lead to worse outcomes for patients," said Rep. Pramila Jayapal. "It’s time to rein in Medicare DisAdvantage and protect traditional Medicare."

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores.

TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti.

Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret.

Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.

MN Judge: "ICE has violated ~100 court orders."

ICE: "We're acting on orders of Kristy Noem"

Kristi Noem: "Everything I've done, I've done at the direction of Trump & Miller"

Nuremberg Trials: "I was just following orders is not a valid defense to criminal behavior"

Abolish. Impeach. Prosecute.

People who begin by shooting animals they find unpleasant or not worthy of living often turn out to be serial killers. Remember that when you think about Kristi Noem.

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

The lesson from Minnesota is that if you are white and a woman, white and homosexual, or worse yet, both, the public will not be moved enough to overcome authoritarian obfuscation of the truth of what we can plainly see for ourselves.

If you have a family story about a Cherokee great-grandmother, whether your family is white or black, it is almost certainly false.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."
