The people of Minnesota are an inspiration. They’re out in the freezing cold protesting ICE brutality and protecting their communities. They're delivering groceries to their vulnerable neighbors and forming human chains around schools during pickups.

We can’t leave them to do this work alone.

Congratulations to Russia and China.

You did it! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

USA will never be looked at as a trusted partner and ally in the world ever again, by any sane or decent country. You spent years propping up the idiot occupying the Whitehouse, and it is working.

Q: Did you uncover evidence to prove Trump knew his claim the election was stolen was false?

SMITH: Yes

Q: And Trump claimed it was stolen while he privately acknowledged he lost?

SMITH: Yes

Q: Yet on the 5th anniversary of J6, Trump still promoted the stolen election theory on a govt webpage

Sometimes when we combat Trump's election lies, we lose sight of just how badly Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. It wasn't close. He lost every swing state and the popular vote by a lot.

House Democrats called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to allow them to visit the minimum-security federal prison in Texas where Ghislaine Maxwell is being held. More than a dozen whistle-blowers have come forward with reports of her receiving perks in prison.

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment.

That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant.

Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".

2026 is going to be a very dark year for US foreign policy, where everything that was built over many decades by leaders for collective security is torn apart by one madman, but only because people in his own party remain silent.

Trump’s plan has been clear: terrorize Americans, attack them, shoot them in the face, and create as much chaos as possible — whatever it takes. Then use the chaos he manufactured to invoke the Insurrection Act.

The guy who incited an insurrection to overturn an election he knows he lost is going to use the insurrection act to suspend an election he knows his party is going to lose.

And right on cue, Trump threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act. Trump and Stephen Miller are deliberately trying to cause the rule of law and civil order to collapse in Minnesota for a reason. This is that reason.

Nothing Trump does is intended to benefit average people in the US, Greenland, Venezuela, Iran, or anywhere else. They are always the ones who bear the costs, burdens and negative consequences.

Everything he does benefits himself and his billionaire cronies around the globe.

New Year’s Eve release should not obscure Jack Smith’s testimony. He collected evidence lawfully, and he believed it would prove Trump’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
