This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Such giants began their growth many generations before us and will be here many generations after us. The sight of such giants should actually make us think about our short stay on this wonderful planet Earth.💚☘️🌿🌱🌲🌳🍀💚

Oh, snap, what an amazing idea!! The subsidies would be like, I dunno, food coupons or, say, stamps—people could exchange them for groceries, except that with today's technology you could give them magnetic stripes that could hold their benefits—electronic benefit transfer cards or something!!!

Call it a People's 250th birthday bash. Americans are coming out of their long funk by cheering Muslim soccer stars in Kansas, forming a rainbow coalition to party for the Knicks, and remembering the soft-spoken dignity of the Obamas A Summer of Love? My new column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

So pro-life means jailing women who miscarry but shrugging when the deranged president says “a whole civilization will die tonight.” Do I have that right?

He skipped church. Dropped the F-bomb. Praised Allah. On Easter. You can’t make this up. The man tweets war threats while you hunt eggs with your kids. THIS is your president, America. Wake up.

They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a “weapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way. www.investigativepost.org/2026/02/25/b...

The halftime show is the only part of the Superbowl I'm watching! El mundo bailará!

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

Omaha, NE. 9 degrees. #iceout

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

Just staggered by the complete moral void of not even *pretending* to wait for more information before pivoting to “the opponent of the state deserved it.” It is so insanely depraved. Soulless.

Resistance to this regime can take many forms. Kudos to these volunteers who are stepping up to help their community in Minnesota. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u...

The Governors of the free States of America, particularly Democratic states, need to hold a summit to create a deliberative body and as a framework for collective action against those who would wage war against those states

Today I was Kidnapped By ICE - Dawokefarmer

People in Minnesota are now using their key fobs to trigger their car alarms from the safety of their homes when they see ICE walking around.

35 million Americans live in poverty, and yet, this is what our president is focused on.

it's almost like tariffs increase prices

“If only these fretful Republicans belonged to some sort of governmental body that had the ability to limit or even stop these troublesome actions. One could image, say, a separate legislative body to check the executive, control spending & vet unfit nominees.” open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

This is a DC area food bank that has helped laid off and unpaid government workers. They need help. If you have a few bucks to spare consider this charity. www.capitalareafoodbank.org?utm_referrer...

Food banks were already struggling to keep with demand. Then, Trump slashed $1 billion from crucial USDA programs supporting them. Now, thanks to his shutdown, millions of Americans in at least 25 states will lose access to food stamps on November 1st. The perfect storm of cruelty.

Did you tear-up today when you were out protesting because you felt the camaraderie and fellowship with so many like-minded and caring people? I did. Did you tear-up today when you were protesting because you're still processing the fact that we're rapidly tumbling toward authoritarianism? I did.

Giant copy of the Constitution being carried down Pennsylvania Avenue.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public" - Theodore Roosevelt

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

My choice for the Nobel Peace Prize this year: Chef José Andrés and the World Central Kitchen.

After enacting the largest SNAP cuts in history, Trump is now scrapping the federal government's annual report on hunger in America. The utter cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.

Changing the name of the Department of Defense will cost billions.We could build units for all unhoused veterans. Or give service members a pay raise so 35K active duty members wouldn’t have to rely on food stamps. Or… or… or…

The Trump regime is about to burn 500 tons of USAID emergency food. Why? Because it expired after its shipment was delayed. 1.5 million children could have eaten for a week. Now, taxpayers will spend $130K for it to be destroyed. This isn’t just inefficient – it’s cruel.

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

This heat is no joke. Be careful, and stay hydrated out there and at the College World Series. Here is a list of The Salvation Army Western Division cooling centers for those in need, in addition to our homeless shelters.

“The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else." Beautiful statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman.

Thank you to all of our service members and veterans. We appreciate you, your families, and your sacrifices for our country. Wish we were spending millions on you instead of a parade.

Instead of funding a military parade, we should be funding SNAP and Medicaid. It’s that simple.
