A politician with the guts to say it: "No American child from the blue collar or the middle class should have to die fighting in Iran. Let the Epstein class fight the Epstein War." - Premier Wab Kinew at the NDP national convention, Winnipeg.

A president that wanted the best for America and humanity. How I miss that now that we have a self enriching sociopath. RIP Rev Jackson.

Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

The Dow was at 43,488 when Trump took office. It just hit 50,000. So if you had invested $43,488 in the US, you would now have $50,000. But if you had invested the same amount in the rest of the world, you would now be worth $60,000. Lemme do a expla-youtube-nation www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYL5...

Until Justin Wolfers Shows You That U.S. Markets Are Coming 21st Out of 23.What does “Dow 50,000” actually tell you—anything about the economy, or just that a number got bigger?

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family. “He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

Protesters in Los Angeles projected an anti-ICE video onto the Twin Towers, an ICE-linked detention facility where the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department actively collaborates with ICE for deportation screenings.

Republicans are out there defending the lies from the administration. It’s clear that Republicans think it’s okay to kill political opponents for no reason. Timeline: A Moment by Moment Look at the Shooting of Alex Pretti www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

This should be blasted 24 7 on all news stations. Trump and his private police force are destroying our country.

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin. This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.

ICE in MN has nothing to do with immigrants. It’s an attack on the most reliably blue state that is intended to be grounds for military rule or a civil was. Trump is a dictator and the Republicans are fascists.

This is so fucking illegal. ICE needs to have all funding immediately paused until policies, guardrails, and accountability can be implemented.

BREAKING: ICE agents in Minneapolis violently detained and arrested a U.S. citizen for one reason only: he refused to prove his citizenship. No crime. No warrant. No probable cause.

Once again Target bends the knee to Trump. Just a reminder that if you have anywhere else to shop, you should.

This 17-year-old American citizen was abducted, tortured, and then, hours later, dumped in a Walmart parking lot miles away by ICE. He's bleeding, confused, and crying. They tortured this child. JFC.

The peace president sure sucks at peace.
