It was obvious to see that Russia was the aggressor with its first illegal invasion and occupation of Ukraine beginning in 2014. Now YEAR 4/Day 307 of the 2nd illegal invasion and occupation and Donald Trump still won't call Russia the aggressor. Trump proves every day that he sides with Putin.

When Trump leaves office, we can crowbar his name off everything and throw it all into a big, raging fire. Call it “The Bonfire of the Vanities.”

Christian here…what interest does our government EVER have in [specifically] the alleged treatment of Christians elsewhere? “People elsewhere,” sure. US citizens traveling/living abroad, of course. But the USA itself (& its military ffs) doesn’t have a religion. Cuz that’d be…wait for it…unAmerican.

Thoughts from a community activist in Memphis:
"If you are part of the Memphis [Un]Safe Task Force & conducting ICE operations, you are in fact ICE. The US marshals, DSS, FBI, HSI, SCSO, MPD, ATF, etc. All ICE."

Back from a week in Canada visiting my in-laws.
Normally we get together in the Poconos, as it’s central for all of the families, but the in-laws aren’t comfortable coming here under Trump’s new rules so we moved it all north of the border.
That’s probably $8k that would’ve gone to Pennsylvania.

ICYMI: I introduced my Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act, which would require greater oversight of detention facilities, repeal mandatory detention, and prohibit the detention of families and children.
It’s time to protect immigrants from this lawless administration.

If I decided it was too much bother to clean my house so I moved into an igloo in Antarctica for the rest of my life, you'd think I was awful stupid.
Tech bros deciding they'd lose too much profit if they stopped destroying the Earth because they can move to Mars someday is even stupider.

Donald Trump defaulted on a $330 million loan for his Chicago skyscraper. And it wasn't the only time he defaulted on a loan or failed to pay a bill.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.

Mitt Romney said the quiet part out loud: the rich should pay more in taxes.
The Wall Street Journal attacked him for it.
But he’s right—and ignoring the math is how democracies crack.

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
And 1 million Epstein files appeared from thin air
