“House Judiciary Committee estimates that Trump’s pardons have cost the American public over BILLION in fines and restitution… Major figures include $184 million in forfeiture from Ross Ulbricht, the founder of the Silk Road marketplace convicted of drug trafficking.”

Everyone needs to see this amazing performance!
Trump’s propaganda czar Brendan Carr and Trump-controlled CBS refused to let Colbert air his interview with James Talarico. You can watch the interview here, and it already has 1.4M views. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...
Photo of Canadian party leaders at tumbler ridge. PM Mark Carney is in the Center and they’re all holding hands
When there’s a mass shooting in the US, Trump rushes to blame the left.
He stokes fear & division and rarely says anything about the victims.
In Canada, all party leaders went to pay their respects in Tumbler Ridge.
They held hands, placed flowers & showed unity.
That’s how it should be done.
Imagine seeing photos and videos of ugly old men raping underage girls and thinking, "I need to protect those horrible men at all costs."?
Pam Bondi is a soulless villain.
In no functioning country is this allowed.
“When a prison camp opens in your town… When a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom… When the president* destroys what’s left of the Constitution… They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” @aoc.bsky.social
Warnock on the arrest of Don Lemon: It’s chilling, and I think that is the intent. They intend to send chills down the backs of journalists. The authoritarian march is happening in real time, and it’s way past the time to wake up.
MAYOR FREY: “I never thought in a million years we would be invaded by our own federal government… That may be what happens in other countries, but it doesn’t happen here.”
New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.
school being canceled because the president sent armed thugs to harass and imprison the populace for voting against him should be the biggest domestic scandal in american history
@politicsgirl.bsky.social Leigh THANK YOU for saying it like it is with passion and integrity!!! You are my hero! 💪🏼
There are anti-ICE signs on every business, every streetlight, every blank wall, in half the windows. Everyone is wearing anti-ICE clothing. No one talks about anything else, at the bus stop, at work, at the bars and restaurants, at the store.
Total unity around one idea: ICE OUT NOW
We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King.
This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.
the dig at Kardashian culture is just ::chef kiss::
Well, I really wish now that I had finished my report on this from months ago. I repeatedly wrote on social media that this is what was happening, and it was.
All the evidence was there that this had nothing to do with a ballroom.
I will still publish my report, which includes lots of new details.
I need every interviewer to ask Republicans if they agree that the government of Norway gives out Nobel Prizes & if the US had boats in Greenland 300 years ago. B/c these aren't slips of the tongue. These are absolute delusions, & every Republican who won't call them out should OWN defending them.
This isn’t immigration policy. It’s a business model.
ICE keeps growing, not because it makes America safer, but because corporations are raking in billions off cages, bodies, and suffering. ICE’s existence is a massive revenue stream.
And Republicans wouldn't care.
History will judge Chuck Schumer as entirely ill-equipped for this moment. I try my best to see the good in our party leaders because I understand we're in uncharted territory, but it is beyond obvious he's the wrong person for the job.
He's demanding control over a sovereign nation because they didn't give him THE NOBEL PRIZE. Why the actual fuck do we have a 25th Amendment?

He's been wearing this Nazi-look greatcoat for months.
Sign on door prohibiting immigration enforcement on private property
Shelf filled with goggles and whistles
This is Minneapolis:
Walk into my neighborhood ACE last night & see the signage on their door notifying fed agents that it’s private property and cannot be used for immigration enforcement. These signs are all over the city.
Walk in & the nearest shelf has goggles & whistles.
Murphy: The United States Congress should not fund a Department of Homeland Security that is not obeying the laws of the United States of America
Congressman Ted Lieu, a former Air Force veteran, issued a stark warning to U.S. military members, that military action against Greenland without explicit congressional authorization would constitute following illegal orders. He reminded service members they swear an oath to the Constitution, not 🤡…
Ice shouldn’t be killing people period paragraph
This is not controversial
Whew🔥
“I wasn’t ready for a president of the United States to incite an insurrection against the Congress of the United States, against the Constitution, against the capital of the United States. No, who would be ready for that? But we are ready to save our democracy.”

.@PabloReports: What do you make of the White House blaming the police for what happened on January 6th?
Lieu: The White House’s statement is batshit crazy.
