What a nightmare! May he fail to get the nomination.
Not OK in any way shape or form.
I’m terrified of what this might bring. We have to do everything in our power to stop this nightmare before it explodes beyond anyone’s control.
Going to war only helps each regime shore up its own power, because of the patriotic reflexes we feel when our own country or its bases are under attack. And lots of Iranians hate their own theocratic leaders, but they hate the US & Israel more, for very good reasons. We can never be their saviors.
Waking up to the news of the US and Israel launching a war on Iran. Three countries led by horrible regimes led by wildly unpopular leaders.
The solution in each country has always been this: people rise up and claim their own self-determination, forming a government of, for, & by the people.
Wow, I guess a broken clock tells the right time twice a day, not just once. The second thing I’ve agreed with the otherwise horrifically-opinioned Marjorie Taylor Greene on. May the MAGA revolt against Trump continue.
New details from his testimony on minimal training for ICE recruits:
❌ says nearly 16 hours of classes on firearms training intended “to teach them how to use their weapons correctly and safely” were eliminated
❌ 2-hour course about the rights of protesters was reduced to 10 mins
ICE whistleblower Ryan Schwank, a former ICE instructor and attorney, testifies that agents were trained to disregard constitutional rights.
I recently added some of the songs by Cocteau Twins that I used to listen to in the 90s to a playlist. Hearing them fresh, I was trying to figure out what their lyrics could possibly be. It sounds like it is this kind of nonsense on all the songs. I guess it was! 😂
Devastating.
Wow, I’d missed that news. Power to the Indian people!
That. Right after shouting out the name of every single country in the Americas and the Caribbean.
And he spiked it. Damn right. 😭
Oh my goodness, really?!?!? People!!!
Mr. Rogers would be here too. ❤️ #Minneapolis
When even Bill Kristol is saying it…
Remember when Trump said this was about welfare fraud? Never was. Anyone who believed he even cared about fraud while pardoning any fraudster who paid him is a chump.
It’s a manufactured crisis based on so many lies about immigrants and the mechanisms of immigration. For example, people who think that asylum seekers are illegally present in this country.
ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
DOJ missed the legal deadline to release the Epstein files

Just one more piece of evidence to prove that this administration really does not care if people live or die. Even the people in their supposed base. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/14/h...
Thinking about the Supreme Court today and praying for our trans siblings. Trans folks are beautiful, holy, and whole, living in ways that show on the outside who God made them to be on the inside. Trans folks deserve every right everyone else has. 🏳️⚧️🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
On my way to the Supreme Court where I'll be proud to support 15-year-old Becky Pepper-Jackson, West Virginia's only transgender athlete, as she opposes the state's effort to ban her from playing as herself.
Win or lose, Becky and her family are heroes for standing up for what's right
lots of political space to convert those “not sures” into somewhat supports and those “somewhat supports” into strongly supports on eliminating ICE. also, with a funding battle coming up, plenty of political space to say “no government funding unless we claw back last year’s new ICE funding”
Breaking NYT:
The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.
The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.
That is a war crime called "perfidy."

Mayor Jacob Frey: "They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit."
NOW: Crowd continues to grow in Minneapolis at a vigil where a federal agent shot and killed Renee Good this morning.
“SAY HER NAME!”
“RENEE GOOD!”
AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.
Rep. Seth Moulton: "This is insane. What the hell are we doing? ... this is illegal."
