This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Cool story. Republicans don’t actually believe in stopping child rape because their king rapes children.

How about go fuck yourself

I see a lot of people saying Congress shouldn’t drag Todd Blanche in to testify on the Epstein cover-up because he’ll lie. Good—make him lie. If they can prove it later, they can prosecute him. Every lie is a trap. Give the Epstein class as many chances as possible to hang itself.

If a brown singer at a halftime show offends you enough to protest but white men raping young girls doesn’t, then it isn’t family values you defend it’s white supremacy and sexual abuse.

Some Olympic athletes commonsensically and even eloquently distinguish love of country from approval of Trump administration actions that are a blight upon the country. Trump and MAGA squeal and whine. Bullies are the most fragile snowflakes.

NBC edited out JD Vance being booed at the Olympics. CBS and ABC paid millions in bogus settlements to fund Trump. CNN made Scott Jennings a rightwing star. The Washington Post laid off 300 journalists. Support independent media. Subscribe to Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Democrats spent a decade banning gerrymandering in blue states and trying to ban it nationwide. Republicans blocked the national ban and kept gerrymandering red states. So excuse me if I don’t give a fuck about Republicans crying that Democrats are fighting back.

on the balance i think partisan gerrymandering is bad but the only way it ends is if democrats weaponize it against republicans everywhere they can. wiping out republican lawmakers in blue states might bring the GOP to the table to end the practice.

so its not a distraction. its part of a case being made and asking the public to render a verdict. "the accused is a pedo protector, who posts racist videos, who also is destroying the kennedy center, and spreading measles, while denying abortion rights..." etc its all the things. all of them.

Not the first time Republicans have depicted Obama as an ape. The NY Post did it years ago and had cops shooting him. This is who Trump and the Republicans are. They are racist. This isn't new. Birther conspiracy anyone?

Donald Trump is a racist.

Every American needs to watch this:

Open letter to our Senators: Gentlemen, Ladies, we don't really care about ICE not getting even more funding. We don't care about more "training" and more rules they won't follow. We want ICE de-funded. Dismantled. Gone. Driven out of our cities.

Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

Abolish DHS

one year in and rfk jr, kristi noem, pete hegseth and marco rubio are all guilty of murder

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

A long moment of silence for Alex Pretti at the VA in Portland

“Removing a fascist talking head from Minnesota is a start. But the shock troops enforcing Donald Trump’s and JD Vance’s and Stephen Miller’s fascistic vision on the city streets need to go.” www.thebulwark.com/p/the-opposi...

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL: When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

There is one side of the aisle that is deeply deeply flawed, and then there’s the ruling party that wants more of what happened in Minnesota this weekend Not just the shooting, but the whole lawless, bigoted, gleefully violent crackdowns. They crave it. Those are your two options

JD Vance is such a pussy.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Journalists, please remember that repeating obviously false statements is not balance or fairness. It is actively participating in deception.

If you are running for president you should make clear you’re gonna send Greg Bovino to prison

Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration. Congress can: - Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage) - Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes - Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same - Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction It can be done.

A note to all the celebrities, athletes, and CEOs who are too afraid to speak out in the current climate: We don’t need you. But we will remember your silence in this moment.

I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad

Literally everyone in the MAGA regime should be charged with sedition, treason, fraud, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Now that they have repeatedly murdered citizens of Minnesota, disappeared who knows how many people, including children, and terrorized the populace, Bondi is trying to shake Walz down for voter data. Unfuckingbelievable. Fuck jail. We need treason charges and the death penalty for all involved.

If you are a Republican, I do not think you are a fascist. I *observe* that you are a fascist.

If you still support Trump, I don’t judge you for your choice of political party. I judge you for your lack of morals, ethics, compassion & humanity. I judge you for your support of pedophilia, racism, treason & fascism. So will others. So will history.

From this point on, I'm forced to assume that every elected politician who does not immediately call for Trump's impeachment is in the Epstein files. Sorry. Just cutting the Gordian knot here, as one does during societal collapse.

The DNC should release the 2024 autopsy report. Winning off-year elections doesn’t mean we’re back—we’re not. The party still has major problems, and we should welcome uncomfortable conversations, including whatever’s in that report. Not releasing it is a mistake.

Fuck you if you support him.

In the richest city in the richest country on the planet, the thing we can’t afford is to forget those who are left hungry.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

This is tough to listen to

@repdexteror.bsky.social please add your name to this list.

Not sure I've ever been so glad to see a Portland Timbers season come to an end. Hard to be a fan.

As usual, I cannot say it any better than @kenwhite.bsky.social

Also a reminder, the Republicans control both chambers and the white house. If this were a Supreme Court nomination they would pass it in an afternoon. They want the government closed and anything they say to the contrary is a fucking lie.

Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?
