Good morning. It’s 2:00 am in Houston. I’m listening to Lawrence O’Donnell’s interview with Garcia. He says they will “interview” the Trump crimefamily corruption and the billions of dollars they’ve made. My question is, what good is an interview if Trump will just pardon them? Can they be revoked?

Instead of whining about it, I wish anyone in Congress would just read the unredacted Epstein files out loud on the floor of their chamber. WTF are they waiting for?

I would love to see millions of protesters at the steps of the Supreme Court! Past time to abolish lifetime appointments and unaccountability for unethical behavior. Make it happen!!

I have insomnia so it seems I have more hours in the day to worry about all the nonsense going on with our country. Every morning I listen to Lawrence and Jen Psaki. I wonder how long we’ll be able to hear their voices of reason before they’re cut off. I just want to scream “somebody do something!”

I live in La Porte,Texas and today starts early voting. In trying to find my voting location, I found a complicated website that makes it VERY difficult to find my voting place. As it turns out, the dems and republicans can’t agree on a location in my town. I will go to another Harris County site.

After listening to the testimony of ICE victims, those agents should be arrested. They need to shut down every detention center and ICE. You can’t retrain wild animals. I am in tears - this is worse than Hitlers SS.

Liam is in ICE custody and his health is deteriorating. Joaquin Castro says Liam is depressed, lethargic, sleeping excessively and barely eating, repeatedly asking about his mom, and when he can go home. He’s withdrawn and not the bright preschooler he was just days ago. LIAM NEEDS A DOCTOR 1/2

MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!” So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it (H/T longtimehistory)

Amazon is laying off 1000s - probably because they gave Melania $40m for the movie and $35m to promote it. Not a very good investment- duh. I guess they didn’t read the room.

A reminder that Liam Ramos, the son of legal residents in Minnesota, is still being held in a Texas prison. A five year old little boy - and America’s global reputation - now scarred for life. (📸 Ali Daniel’s/AP)

My daughter works for a small company and is losing her healthcare. She has chronic kidney stones and gets weekly mental health therapy. She has come so far in the past year and now it’s gone. I know others are suffering in worse ways but this devastating for us. Shame on our government and Trump.

I’m so tired and frustrated seeing posts after post about how Trump has violated the law and the harm he has/is inflicting on our country. WE KNOW! I want to see action to hold him to account. The courts are too slow! Someone arrest him and Bondi! SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING! Okay, I’m done. Just venting.
