We know there's no limit to the perfidy of which Trump regime is capable. So is it so unbelievable that the crippling of national intelligence is throwing out a welcome mat to would-be terrorists who could provide Trump with an excuse to declare a national emergency and declare martial law?

#SendBarronToWar

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering today.

Iran did not pose an immediate threat to the United States. Trump has admitted this is a regime change war. He did this without congressional authorization. This is an unconstitutional action. Worse, he clearly has no plan for what comes next. It’s a Mad King war.

Newsom: We’ve got to deal with the bullshit from the other side — the propaganda networks, the 24/7 swift-boating the likes of which we’ve never seen aided by billionaires who are consolidating the media, aided and abetted by people bending down on their knees to suck up to this administration —

“It’s no longer a political calculus. It’s a moral and legal and Constitutional obligation of Congress to [impeach]. It would be a violation of the oath of office for a member of Congress not to push for impeachment when it is possible.”

30 years. This video should be on every network.

Democracy is dying in America. ICE is a murderous secret police force. We’re about to bomb Iran for Israel. Your kids are shot at in school daily, and pedophiles run our government. There’s no healthcare, and your food is poisonous. We need real leaders - not career politicians.

ICE "should be abolished, but also it should be prosecuted" - Democratic Rep. @sethmoulton.bsky.social, from the centrist wing of the party, tells me he wants his party leadership to go further than just reforming ICE. Doing that is "no longer believable." Full interview: zeteo.com/p/moulton-ic...

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

Speak Truth..

When oligarchs talk of “personal liberties and free markets” they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful. When oligarchs speak of “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability. Know the truth.

When you agree to pass 5 of 6 appropriations bills, then you later agree to pass funding for everything that is in the 6th bill except for one agency (ICE) that has already been prefunded in a previous bill, you are giving up every bit of leverage you have and selling out.

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

“A few days ago, sunspot 4366 didn't exist. Now it is a behemoth almost half the size of the great Carrington sunspot. Rapid growth is making the sunspot unstable. It has unleashed dozens of solar flares in past 24 hours, including a powerful X8-class flare” www.spaceweather.com

🚨🚨🚨 Trump murdered an ICU nurse THEN called him a terrorist. Alex Pretti saved lives for a living. Trump repaid this American citizen with TEN BULLETS and is now lying about it. Anyone who supports this brutal lynching should be considered an accomplice and dealt with accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨

AOC on ICE: It’s our task to figure out how to claw back what has essentially supercharged this agency into becoming a relentless domestic paramilitary that is also a blank check to Palantir to create facial-recognition scans on U.S. citizens.

@theweekendmsnow.bsky.social Why Tulsi Gabbard? Well, what do you think Maduro would be willing to say about Tulsi's fave conspiracy theory, viz., foreign interference in the 2020 election, in order to win his freedom? Just sayin'.

"I was only following orders" wasn't an acceptable excuse at the Nuremberg trials & won't work now. #AccountabilityIsComing

The Daily Show: #AlexPretti

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

Ironic isn’t it? Had an ICE thug been hurt at the very same location 5 minutes earlier, Alex would have dropped everything to save his life. But 5 minutes later….

Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands…. Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

One of these two people was a "good guy with a gun" Spoiler alert: It wasn't Kyle Rittenhouse

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

AND IMPEACH AND REMOVE. We need to clamor for that even if the votes aren't there—yet.

i think this attitude — that all opposition is illegitimate and nothing we do can be questioned— is probably pervasive in the white house and helps explain why they keep making terrible political choices

How is it that one of the most divisive individuals ever to occupy the Oval Office has somehow managed to unite the entire world against us?

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Abolish ICE is now the moderate minimum position, Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.

@governorwalz.mn.gov Governor Walz, now might be a good time to deploy your state's National Guard to protect your citizens against the terror wreaked by Trump's fascist goon squad and to support MPD.

You misspelled "BORED".

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Leader Jeffries, please include removal of monetary incentives for ICE agents meeting arrest quotas set by Stephen Miller in any ICE reform bill? It's becoming increasingly common for US citizens and other innocents to be brutalized and arrested only to be released.

AND Release the True Epstein Files Now ....
