If you’re just waking up: the U.S. Senate confirmed Todd Blanche as attorney general at around 4:30am ET in a 50–49 vote.

Just a reminder that Trump didn't just bumble us into an unnecessary war -- he deliberately created the conditions that he's now screaming about

Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social

When Trump came to power, he ripped up the peace deal that Obama had made, and used the uncertainty he created as an excuse to bomb Iran, insisting he had ended the problem he had created once and for all, except now he's bombing them again to solve the problem he created and previously solved?

He’s currently suing The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, his DOJ seized devices from a Washington Post reporter, he’s said that the broadcast nets should lose their licenses and called for the firings of various journalists, what are we doing here?

You can’t honor the First Amendment alongside Donald Trump, he has spent his presidency making clear that he does not believe in it. www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump...

Republicans spent 17 months on Benghazi because 4 Americans were killed. It’s been 3 days and Trump’s illegal Iran attack has already gotten 6 American soldiers killed. He promises more will die soon. And Republicans don’t care.

I can’t understand how so many of us voted for a guy you wouldn’t buy a $100 Rolex from in a train station, and put him in charge of the world. Was it fear? Racism?

Where are we? A president clearly in mental decline, a compliant Congress afraid to exercise there oversight responsibilities when the useful idiot starts a war. When I served, it never occurred to me that I would ever have to question an order.

Massie THROWS DOWN THE GAUNTLET to fellow Republicans: If you can't take up for children who were sex trafficked, who can you take up for? The answer: no one. You'll defend no one if your political capital is at stake, and you need to be purged from our party. ~ Rep Thomas Massie

Gallego: "They literally murdered an American. What happened that day was absolute murder and that ICE officer should be in jail ... I didn't wear a mask in Iraq."

Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

"Here are the demands we all need to make: Use the National Guard to protect our citizens. Arrest agents who commit crimes. Charge police, National Guard, and ICE with crimes when they commit or refuse to stop them. . . . Do it now." cmarmitage.substack.com/p/my-first-7...

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announces the state is filing a lawsuit against DHS: "We ask that the courts will end the surge of thousands of DHS agents into Minnesota. We ask the courts to end the DHS' unlawful behavior in our state, the intimidation, the threats, the violence."

Thom from Colorado reposted

Keith Ellison: "These poorly trained, aggressive, and armed agents of the federal state have terrorized Minnesota with widespread unlawful conduct. They're making unconstitutional arrests and using excessive force ... this has to stop."

At nearly 1,200 events across all 50 states and DC, Americans honored Renee Nicole Good and mourned all the lives ICE has taken and destroyed. #ICEOutForGood

Frey: "You cannot drag pregnant women through the snow. You're not allowed to take teenagers out of their car and detain them when they are in fact American citizens. That is against the law in every state. That is against our US Constitution."

Thom from Colorado reposted

I am calling for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agent that shot and killed Renee Good. I am also calling on Congress to support my bill with @jasmineforus.bsky.social to force ICE agents to wear body cameras, not wear masks, have visible identification & ensure ICE has independent oversight.

It's been well over three weeks since the deadline set by law and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

This Saturday, I joined hundreds of my constituents in Pasadena to take a stand against ICE's illegal killing of Renee Good. Trump has weaponized ICE to wreak havoc in our communities & detain innocent civilians without due process.
