Drone debris falls on Kyiv like steel rain. The mayor keeps us informed about the damage it causes. We pretend we have umbrellas to hide under. Saturday evening. Drone attack again. I look out of the window to check whether it’s raining or not.

“They always say America first. Nobody ever says Americans first.” It’s $1 billion a day for a war Trump promised he wouldn't start.

Inside an ICE facility, women talked about the men whose 911 calls landed them there — the boyfriends or husbands who had beat them, choked them, threatened deportation. “I had suffered from domestic violence,” one woman said. “But the one who ended up in trouble was me.”

If Trump had done nothing but play golf these past 21 months - no tariffs, no war, no mass deportations- the economy would be humming along. But he’s a really bad person. And an idiot. And this is all on him.👇

He gets up to a microphone and hisses out cat calls for violence. This cancer spreads, they clap. Foam with rabid bloodlust. Foul filthy speak that kids shouldn’t be allowed to hear. Who are these rodents cheering?

$2000. That's how much your household has already spent this year on Trump's Middle East War. Congressional Republicans won’t lift a finger. It’s time to vote them out.

The Iran War is costing Americans $2,000 per household according to analysis by Moody's Analytics and Brown University.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. ICE’s unchecked power won’t rein itself in. If we want real oversight, accountability, and an end to intimidation tactics that target vulnerable communities, we have to demand it—loudly and publicly. Abolish ICE.

The Big Picture@readthebigpicture.bsky.social

Accountability NOW. Abolish ICE.

The government doesn’t track how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. So ProPublica did. We’ve tallied more than 500 Americans held against their will in warrantless arrests and detentions during President Trump’s second term.

Tim Snyder: The term that I came up with… is superpower suicide. I just can’t see an example of a major country losing so much power so quickly as the United States under Trump. We’ve encouraged our enemies and we’ve made our allies not trust us.

We just caught the companies that cage people for ICE writing checks to nine Republicans who want to run the Senate. Nine. Not one of them will say a word about it. Good. We'll say it for them, in all nine states, every day until November. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-fill...

37 more wounded troops. Added quietly. No explanation. Here's the No B.S. truth: when anyone (a vendor, a CEO, a government) revises the numbers without telling you why, the silence IS the message. 861 wounded. Their families deserve the full story.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

ICE is removing detainees with final deportation orders from its online tracking system. This makes it nearly impossible for their lawyers and families to contact them, which could prevent them from using all their constitutionally protected legal options. Trump’s cruelty is endless.
