They should all be doing this because they know that he's a prolific liar and a con man with absolute bad intentions toward this country. If they don't, then they're complicit.

This is so sick. So a Russian blood diesel vessel is on its way to NC set to arrive tomorrow. It left St Petersburg on Sept 22nd. This Trump-Putin plan has been in the works for weeks can’t picture what allies America will have left after this

We cannot let this administration continue to lie about what's going on. Make sure that your neighbors know exactly what's happening. Maybe they're completely heartless and don't give a sht, butthat doesn't mean you shouldn't put this in front of their face & try to get through. #ICELawlessness

The guy who did such an incredible job with the Reflecting Pool, Ballroom, Kennedy Center, National Mall, and Great American Fair is going to redesign our warships. What could go wrong?

How do people not adore this guy? If I didn’t already, this would’ve pushed me over the edge. I’d be donating, volunteering, the whole thing. Abdul El‑Sayed is bringing real energy to Michigan, and I’ll be in the state in September to canvass for him.

Trump lies constantly and he is desperate for the Iran war to be over. So desperate that he’s giving Iran 20 times the money Obama did, and getting nothing in return, except an open strait that Iran will charge a “maintenance fee” to all ships. Well done, bozo

Your daily reminder this should be the biggest scandal in American politics right now but nobody seems to care. Ken Paxton freed a man who raped a boy for 3 years. He also doesnt have to register as a sex offender. www.texastribune.org/2026/05/19/k...

texastribune.orgInside Ken Paxton’s plea deal for a child sex abuse caseCritics are pointing to two other serious felony cases that the attorney general’s prosecutors took to trial that ended in mistrials and, eventually, plea deals.

Donald Trump is threatening to kill untold numbers of innocent Iranian women and children unless a nation of 90 million people bends to his psychotic will, but tell me more about how he couldn’t possibly have raped kids.

I don't know if Trump thinks in these terms, but I do think he believes that he can leverage chaotic situations (see also tariffs) which causes him to double down in cases where the costs are going to be borne by others

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States. This would provide Donald Trump with a pretext to try to cancel or “federalize” the coming Congressional elections. snyder.substack.com/p/the-desire...

Someone in Congress needs to sponsor the Pretti-Good Act of 2026. It would: 1) remove immunity from any federal agent who willfully and intentionally violates the constitutional rights of a civilian; 2) prohibit any federal agent from pretending to have a judicial warrant if they don’t, from

Way to go, Philadelphia! The city has introduced new legislation putting real limits on ICE activity. Federal agents will no longer be allowed to operate anonymously no masks, visible identification required, and arrests must be backed by warrants signed by a federal judge.

Mister Rogers said that when times are troubling and scary, we should "look for the helpers." Apparently, ICE and Border patrol have standing orders to HUNT DOWN THE HELPERS AND MURDER THEM! #FuckICE #AbolishICE #FDT #FuckTrump #Americanholocaust

Ask yourself. If ICE is going door to door, what’s next? Armed federal agents took a man away in handcuffs. A woman came out of the house and said the man was her husband. It also appears ICE used an administrative warrant, not a judicial warrant. That matters….

Marco Rubio says the United States supports the brave people of Iran. How about you support the brave people of the United States instead of shooting them in the face, dragging them from their cars, and pepper spraying their schools?

In his attempt to brutalize children, America's pedophile führer has been stopped: Judge Arun Subramanian has blocked the fascist authoritarian Trump regime from freezing roughly $10 billion in federal funding for child care and social services in five Democratic-led states.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

joled16.bsky.social reposted

Renee Good’s murder was not just a homicide, it’s a hate crime against women, called femicide. Good told ICE, "That's fine, I'm not mad at you" and was shot 3 times in the head point blank, Ross yelled the misogynist slur, "fucking bitch" after killing her. #3E #endimpunity
