The co-founder of Latinas for Trump is now condemning Trump’s ICE raids: “I’m afraid of someone stopping my son.” “This is not what we voted for.”

The invincible resolve and indomitable spirit of a community determined to throw off the yoke of injustice. Thank you Minneapolis for your strength and nonviolent resistance amidst horrific ongoing tragedy.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

AUGUST They’ve been planning the Venezuela attack since at least August. Oil companies knew. Congress didn’t. Not briefed. Not consulted. And Trump’s oil fantasy isn’t a quick win. Venezuela’s oil is a decade-long infrastructure project, while he’s gutting infrastructure here. But America First?

Arizona, the model for voucher programs across the country, spent so much money paying private schoolers’ tuition that it faced hundreds of millions in budget cuts to critical state programs and projects last year. (Published July 2024)

So, to recap: Washington Post story breaks on Hegseth. Pentagon says fake news. White House confirms the story roughly 12 hours later - and defends it. Press Sec confirms that Hegseth personally ordered the execution of the two stranded men. This isn’t going well.

On this day in 1992, Nirvana dropped "In Bloom," the Kurt Cobain anthem that blasts into Nevermind and still hits with the same raw thunder decades later.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy. For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy. The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Right now, our amazing service members with the California National Guard are helping power expanded food bank operations across the state. California refuses to let the Trump government shutdown's halt to federal food assistance abandon Californians in need.

Tonight, the American people - in defense of free speech - returned a political satirist to the airwaves after a burgeoning fascist regime tried to silence him. It’s an historic night. I won’t forget it.

Nothing says "I have no reason to silence these women or fear what they will say" quite like ordering military aircraft to fly over and disrupt their press conference.

Dear Humans, Things have been extremely, unbelievably depressing for a while now and only getting worse. The bastards are trying to grind our hearts into dust. I apologize for letting it all get to me too. Love, God

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson on what keeps her up at night: "The state of our democracy. I would say that I am really very interested in getting people to focus and to invest and to pay attention to what is happening in our country and in our government."

“In any other foreign country, if William Boot was reporting on this, we wouldn’t hesitate to call ICE’s operations a “paramilitary force loyal to the regime” or “masked right-wing militia” (and that, by the way, is exactly what other countries’ media are calling it here.)”

Day by passing day, we are watching what amounts to a national police riot by ICE. But what worries me is that what we are witnessing is not the actions of an agency that believes it will ever be subject to meaningful oversight or legal authority ever again. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-believ...
