Trump is the result of a deeply sick society, not the cause. Racism and fascism are the disease; Trump is their political manifestation. America is in a very dark place. The parallels with societies that surrendered democratic institutions to authoritarianism should terrify us. They are lost.

DHS’s SAVE system, which I would put money on as being the source of these numbers, has a significant false-positive problem. The data is at times out of date, or inaccurate, and can often flag people as non-citizens even when they are in fact US citizens. www.texastribune.org/2026/02/13/s...

texastribune.orgSAVE tool keeps mistakenly flagging voters as noncitizens - The Texas TribuneDHS rolled out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.

WHAT A PILE OF GARBAGE! "Barbarians inside the gate" is Cold War fear-mongering nonsense. We don't live in the 1960s. Democratic socialism isn't communism or Stalinism, it's about universal healthcare and workers' rights, per actual Democratic principles. You're just afraid to lose. ...

Todd Blanche isn't defending civil rights. He's dismantling them by raiding and intimidating voter registration groups, targeting “political enemies,” and going after anyone who protects the vote or holds power accountable. Tell your Senator to vote NO! #BlockBlanche #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Flagrant against Robinson but Wemby can throw a player to the floor & they didn't call that a foul during or after. So the refs are making Mike Brown pay for his post game comments. Adam Silver needs to review this in post season #Knicks Fans are so exhausted at the BS they've given up #NBAFinals

The order will not remain. It violates federal law and Trump's immunity doesn't apply here. This is not an official act of the president. It's a civil lawsuit brought by Trump as a private citizen. The lawsuit and IRS settlement is a fraud on the court.

The fraud about voter fraud. It doesn''t exist, they just want us to think it exists so that republicans can pass bogus laws to limit voting rights, lawsuits & Supreme Court are all about keep the power with the billionaire class via DT & MAGA republicans.

Alabama case came out exactly as predicted. No one should be shocked or surprised. This is a completely corrupt and broken Supreme Court that literally went against its own reasoning to promote a rigged, racist map in Alabama to help Republicans. Reform the Court or democracy dies.

Step 1. Temporarily repeal the Writ of Cert. Make the current Supreme Court hear every single appeal. Wear them down. Step 2. Amend existing law to add 4 more seats to the Supreme Court under the next Democrat president (9 justices is nowhere in the Constitution). Step 3. Term limits.

If Democrats aren't advocating for massive Supreme Court reform, then they aren't the change you seek or need, folks. If they aren't willing to fight or campaign on this, then we're totally f'd.

Not to scare anyone, but our mad-man POTUS, has just basically invited the Chinese to invade Taiwan, a close ally, and a supplier of much of the tech that we are using, as well as every day consumer products. And guess what? We won't lift a finger to help them. We now look weak to them.

Trump allies keep bringing meritless lawsuits against the government, which Trump's DOJ then "settles" for enormous sums of taxpayer money now Trump is personally getting in on it, negotiating with himself for a "settlement" in the *billions* we're being robbed ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Just last week Trump invented a conversation with a former president and got called out on that lie. I’m taking Iran’s word on this one too.

RonieG reposted

Just so. Trump is close to mastering a game of geopolitical checkers. He threatens to jump an Iranian piece. The Iranians then point out that they will then jump him back, leaving Donald Trump to confront fresh complexities that would confound any preschool strategist.

Never in my life have I believed Iran state media over our own government. Until now. That’s not being “unpatriotic,” it’s having a brain that functions.

Who you gonna believe? “Trump said the military will postpone strikes on Iranian energy for 5 days following ‘productive’ talks between Washington and Tehran.” “Iran’s Foreign Ministry denied Tehran was in talks with the U.S., saying there was ‘no dialogue’” www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

Oh wow, 14 months into the term you realized disaster relief might actually be important!?!?!?

wow -- JD Vance tosses Kristi Noem under the bus "We recognized, frankly, that we needed the new leadership to hasten the delivery of resources to the people of North Carolina ... we think it's useful to have somebody come in and focus on some of this disaster relief and recovery stuff."

If you missed the exchange between @raskin.house.gov and Pam Bondi today, watch this masterful statement from him on behalf of the Epstein victims: “You are siding with the perpetrators and you are ignoring the victims. That will be your legacy.” Repost if you agree she is the worst AG in history.
