House Democrats are demanding Congress return to session NOW to stop Trump’s plan to commit genocide. 12+ U.S. troops dead. Hundreds injured. Billions wasted. And Trump is threatening to eradicate a whole civilization. Call Republicans at the Congressional Switchboard: 1-202-224-3121

Here’s my takeaway from the State of the Union: NPR reports that the DOJ has “withheld” documents that include allegations that Donald “sexually abused a minor.”

Imagine an entire political party standing and cheering because they passed a law which gives tax breaks to billionaires and paid for it by starving children

Trump: "In one year, we have lifted 2.4 million Americans -- a record -- off of food stamps" (In other words, Republicans cut food stamps)

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

They looked for “Don T” in the Epstein files and redacted all instances, which means they also redacted a lot of “don’t”

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.

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?"

Americans of good conscience have to realize that they live in a society that elected Trump TWICE. America is not like this because Trump is president. Trump is president because America is like it is.

Trump is openly killing Americans, extorting states for voter rolls and dishonoring NATO veterans. Because the GOP is 100% behind him. Because authoritarianism is the only way forward for them. We can’t wait for the mid-terms. We need massive protests all over the country. Now.

I would give my left nut to know what Europe/Nato said to Trump to get him to turtle like that on Greenland. A few hours after his incoherent and threatening ramble at Davos, he TACO'd. It's nice to see that some leaders grew a spine after hearing Carney's speech. .

Bipartisan negotiators released a DHS funding bill that does not significantly reduce ICE and CBP’s funding nor rein in the agencies’ abuses of power. Make no mistake: Any Democrat who votes for this bill is complicit in Trump’s campaign of terror. Grow a spine and vote no.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

Calling Trump a ‘fascist’ or ‘Nazi’ has become more commonplace given ICE, Venezuela, and Greenland. But is it correct? That’s the question for James Moore & @gmbutts.bsky.social to start their latest conversation on The Bridge. 🔊 on SXM Canada Talks & podcast platforms at noon EST.

Canada: Our Prime Minster studied at Oxford and Harvard, was the Governor of both the Banks of England and Canada, and is recognized as one of the sharpest financial minds around. America: oh yeah? Our guy has to take dementia tests every week.

In Rosemary Barton's interview, Poilievre basically says that Carney leads the conservative caucus. Anything that goes wrong in the conservative caucus is Carney's fault. Tell me you are impotent without saying the words. #pierrepoilievre #mark Carney #rosemarybarton
