The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Maybe Newsom is the one to lead us in this battle.

Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"

weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him

TX Rep. Giovanni Capriglione paid for multiple abortions for his paid mistress—then authored the law that criminalized abortion in Texas. Days before the story broke, he dropped out of his re-election race. Ken Paxton needs the same energy that made Capriglione drop out of his race.

Plain-clothed, masked federal agents who won't identify themselves have opened the door for impersonators to kidnap, sexually assault and/or rob members of the general public. Do what you have to do to protect yourself and others. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is a human rights violation. Multiple detainees described a disturbing incident where dozens of men were forced to eat food they had been denied all day while shackled. “We had to bend over and eat off the chairs with our mouths, like dogs,” — from a new Human Rights Watch report.

This is insanely cruel, senseless, and unnecessary, even by maga standards. I would think.

Zia, an Afghan interpreter who risked his life to help U.S. troops, is being detained by ICE in Massachusetts. He's been living in the U.S. LEGALLY for fear of retribution if he returns to Afghanistan. Targeting Zia and other Afghan allies is dangerous and wrong.

Absolutely surreal to watch White House reporters ask Leavitt questions about tariffs moments after she and Gabbard used this briefing to baselessly accuse Obama of crimes punishable by death. We’re a sick joke of a country.

Let’s be clear about this: an investigative file can have cabinets full of documents, video and audio tapes, FBI 302s (interview reports), physical evidence, and reams of other records and materials. The grand jury may only see a small portion. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

“I have a family,” he said, staring directly into the camera. “I am simply a hard-working Venezuelan. I haven’t committed any crimes. I don’t have a criminal record in my country nor anywhere else.” #Pinks #DisappearedByTrump www.propublica.org/article/vene...

Ossoff: Did anyone really think the sexual predator president who used to party with Jeffrey Epstein was going to release the Epstein files?

This can’t be repeated enough: Masked soldiers are disappearing people off our city streets and it’s not some post-apocalyptic, dystopian novel. It’s actual America, 2025.

Alina Habba in Feb: “On Epstein, it’s incredibly disturbing. We have flight logs, info, names that will come out. There were so many names hidden who had not been held accountable. Now it’s time for accountability. I really believe with Kash and Pam there will be accountability.”
