Trump really thinks he can end a war he started by lying about them surrendering on social media. That’s not how this works

Let’s see these brave ICE slobs go after an Iranian terror cell instead of a grandma in Minnesota.

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

Ossoff: "When American service members are returning in flag-draped coffins... this White House treats war like a [videogame].

It's a disgrace... it speaks to the moral rot of this administration."

It's a shame this is where we are as a country.

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

The Senate must reject this bill.

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

Let us not forget, it was the same administration that reduced us to wearing trash bags as protective gear while we watched the hospital go up in flames around us during the pandemic that just murdered one of our own on the streets in broad daylight. As a nurse & as a person, I will never forgive. I will never forget. I will never back down. This was never about border control.
This is about total control.

When Mamie Till was on the stand during the trial of her son's murderers in 1955, the defense argued she had misidentified her son's body, was lying in order to claim insurance money for her son, & had staged the whole affair with the aid of Communists & the NAACP. Tills murderers walked free.

@maddow.bsky.social: “There are very few Americans right now who have any idea why the United States did this. If this was about drug trafficking then why did President Trump just pardon the former President of Honduras who was convicted of sending hundreds of tons of drugs into the US?”

Q: Trump said the U.S. is going to run Venezuela. Does that mean Americans on street corners in Venezuela? U.S. troops on the ground?

Chic hits #1 today in 1978 with “Le Freak”, a song originally titled “F**k Off!” — and written after the band was turned away by the bouncers at Studio 54.

“We go back to my apartment really pissed off,” said Nile Rodgers, “and Bernard starts singing, ‘Ahhh, f**k off!’ .. and that became the hook.”

A tweet stating Trump denied saying something he said on camera five days earlier, then attacked the reporter who repeated his own words. The image is Trump at a meeting table, looking annoyed and turning his head to the side.

It was also no coincidence that it was a Black woman reporter he railed against.

New Mexico plans to challenge Trump administration request for personal SNAP data SANTA FE — New Mexico is bracing for a showdown with President Donald Trump’s administration over the federal government’s threat to withhold food assistance funding if the state doesn’t turn

The Trump Admin is trying to use food as a weapon AGAIN—threatening to cut off SNAP if states don’t hand over data.

We all know this is a thinly veiled attempt to further harm our communities, and we won’t stand for it. Proud of our state leaders for fighting back!

Of course Trump would give the economy an A+ after he rigged it to enrich him, his family and billionaires...

But for the rest of America?
 
Higher utility bills.
Higher grocery bills.
Historically high mortgage rates.
And skyrocketing health insurance bills.

Your double standards are showing America. Time to hold the GOP as accountable as the Dems.

Exclusive: Woman detained by feds in Keys says she was following agents’ orders “This is not the America that I grew up in, and this is not the America that we represent.”

“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”

The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.

It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.
