Hey Cindy, It's a lot but since I'm not locked up in an ICE detention center or in a bomb shelter, I put on my fancy underpants, hula hooped for 5 and returned to small acts resistance. Being a sand grain in the gas tank feels good.
added alt text for accessibility. Twitter post. Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett O The self-proclaimed "President of peace" is once again starting illegal wars without Congressional authorization. This is not what the American people asked for. Time and time again, Trump has proven that he is not interested in — or capable of — putting "America First." Our soldiers will have to put their lives on the line to defend his reckless decisions. Congress must pass a War Powers Resolution to rein in this dangerous overreach before more damage is done.
added alt text for accessibility. Twitter post. Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders President Trump, along with his right-wing extremist Israeli ally Benjamin Netanyahu, has begun an illegal, premeditated and unconstitutional war. Tragically, Trump is gambling with American lives and treasure to fulfill Netanyahu's decades-long ambition of dragging the United States into armed conflict with Iran. The U.S. Constitution is clear. It is the Congress that declares war, not a president acting unilaterally. The Senate must reconvene immediately and vote on a pending War Powers Resolution which I will strongly support. Further, this attack against Iran is a clear violation of international law and will create increased instability in an already dangerous world. If the United States and Israel can launch an attack against a sovereign nation, so can any other country. Might does not make right. It creates international anarchy, death, destruction and human misery. The American people were lied to about Vietnam. The American people were lied to about Iraq. The American people are being lied to again today — and once again, it is ordinary people who will pay the price. The people of our country, no matter what their political persuasion, do not want endless war. They want decent paying jobs, and health care and housing that they can afford. They want their kids to have an excellent education. We must not allow Trump to force us into another senseless war. No war with Iran.
The US regime that kills its own people isn't going to help the situation in Iran.
The US is just a tool for Israel.
Thank you for saying that. I feel the same way, and this is no time to be tearing each other down.
Hakeem - Stop taking money from Palintir and APAIC. Stop selling out We The People for your personal gain.
Put up an actual resistance! Do not go to the SOTU. Host a shadow event.
You are so disappointing.
After a discussion with their attorney, I have confirmed that Juan, his 16-month-old sister, his mom, and his dad have been deported.
Pretty sure JJ would want you to STOP TAKING APAIC MONEY
Minnesota needs to know the number of children in federal detention, who they are, and where they’re being held.
Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.
They’re taking children from Minnesota and locking them up like criminals in detention camps in Texas.
For the love of God, send our kids home and bring an end to this nightmare.

Write it down on piece of paper, mouth it without making sound, learn to live with a little discomfort.
You know what was probably bothersome to the woman who you are commenting about? That her daughter was murdered on a live stream.
Sometimes we don't have to say the things we are thinking.
Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"
Two weeks ago I spent the whole day at the Museum of the Moving Image to listen to New Yorkers. This is what Liam shared with me.
A big thank you to Shaw-nae for warmly welcoming us, sharing her history and her home. As she often says, Staten Island truly is the borough of many memories.

STATEMENT FROM 18 EPSTEIN SURVIVORS "It is alarming that the United States Department of Justice, the very agency tasked with upholding the law, has violated the law, both by withholding massive quantities of documents, and by failing to redact survivor identities." Survivors of abuse by Epstein and Maxwell call out Justice Department's failure to comply with transparency law Demand oversight and accountability from Congress December 22, 2025 Statement from survivors: The Epstein Files Transparency Act imposed a Dec 19, 2025 deadine for the United States Department of Justice to release its full records of the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplices and enablers, with specific, narrow exceptions such as survivor identities. This law, enacted by a nearly unanimous vote in the House and unanimously in the Senate, and signed by the President, was clear. It afforded no permission for delayed disclosure. Instead, the public received a fraction of the files, and what we received was riddled with abnormal and extreme redactions with no explanation. At the same time, numerous victim identities were left unredacted, causing real and immediate harm. No financial documents were released. Grand jury minutes, though approved by a federal judge for release, were fully blacked out - not the scattered redactions that might be expected to protect victim names, but 119 full pages blacked out. We are told that there are hundreds of thousands of pages of documents still unreleased. These are clear-cut violations of an unambiguous law. Moreover, the partial release was done in a manner that made it difficult or impossible for survivors to find materials that would be most relevant to our search for accountability. There has been no guidance for survivors on how to locate materials pertaining to our own cases, nor have we been provided with copies of our own files despite repeated requests. There has been no communication with survivors or our representatives as to what was…

That is a very sexy prawn! Hi Huxley!
We could use some of that to improve Hickman Mills south. The sidewalks are a mess, the curbs need replacing, the roads are yikes and Blue Ridge Blvd is a giant eyesore.
Well it looks like US trade rep Greer wants to send more dairy products from the US into Canada.
Well Mr Greer, Canadians won't buy US dairy products.
Not happening
Your products are full of hormones and God only knows what else.
Keep your dairy garbage

Frost: If you want to protect children, why don't you ban assault weapons instead of health care?
Crockett: The speaker, he loves to run when things get tough. That's not leadership. That's cowardice. And so that is what he's decided to do—we are supposed to be in till Friday. He has decided that our last day is going to be tomorrow…
Sherif Soliman has nearly 30 years of public service across 3 mayoral administrations, and he's delivered major wins — including reducing CUNY's structural deficit by 79% and securing $1.5 billion for Universal Pre-K. He called Staten Island home for 25 years, and now he's joining us as our Budget Director to deliver a budget that fulfills our affordability agenda
Sherif Soliman sitting at a table signing a paper, with Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani on the left and a white soccer jersey with Staten Island written on it hanging on the right. Mimicking a sports team signing a major player graphic. “Sherif Soliman” written and signed in the top left and “Director of the Mayor’s Office of Management and Budget” written on the top right.
Welcome to A New Era, Sherif Soliman!
Good news! 4 House Republicans have joined @housedemocrats.bsky.social in signing a discharge petition that would force a vote on extending the ACA tax credits.
Speaker Johnson, have the courage to do the right thing and bring up a vote on our bill.
It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.
And a tiny little dot for Kansas City too! So excited for New York!
I've never seen a black-backed woodpecker before! Thank you for sharing!
I just love your updates. 🩷
