CONAN AT HARVARD: “No university in our nation has produced more Nobel laureates or white collar criminals… so whether you choose good or evil, know that you are among the very best.”

An ICE agent accused by Minnesota prosecutors of shooting a Venezuelan immigrant and lying about it has been arrested in Texas. Christian Castro was taken into custody on charges of assault in the second degree and falsely reporting a crime in connection with the Jan. shooting of Julio Sosa-Celis.

For more than a decade, Stephen Colbert has been one of the top voices of late night—making us laugh and, even more importantly, reminding us who we are and what America stands for. Michelle and I enjoyed being Stephen’s guests—even when the games were rigged—and we’re grateful to call him a friend.

Donald Trump told Congress that voting was a privilege. My life's work is defending voting as a fundamental right. I started Democracy Docket in 2020 as a vital tool in the fight for voting rights and free and fair elections. Support its work by subscribing now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Creators and commentators are reporting their Alex Pretti videos are being taken down on multiple platforms. Download those videos while you can folks.

You’re watching the administration lose control of the narrative in real time. The more they show their supporters that they don’t give a shit about their gun rights, the worse it gets. I’ve seen over a dozen right-wing commentators call out the propaganda. That’s progress.

Last year they claimed “illegals” were voting, without any evidence. They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws. Now they claim “illegals” are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence. So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans. Enough.

Constitutional checks on power is not terrorism. First Amendment protected free speech is not terrorism. Criticism is not terrorism. The right of the people to peacefully assemble and address grievances toward their government is not terrorism. Speak truth to power. Always.

Stephen Miller again lashes out at the judiciary, suggesting federal judges are aiding and abetting domestic terrorism:

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans. Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies. Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

So let me get this straight: Jack Smith investigates a guy who tried to overturn an election and incited an insurrection… and he’s the one being investigated? We’re not a serious country. We’re a banana republic with better branding…but that’s going to shit, too.

If he builds his golden ballroom, how soon can it be torn down? Indeed, let’s remember many of these heinous acts can be overturned. None of this despicable demolition of our government and values is unchangeable. But it requires ending his lawless regime & returning power to responsible leaders.

It’s one thing to say they want to deport 20 million people, it’s even one thing to go nuts brazenly doing whatever you can as the executive branch to make it happen, but the fact that they’re going to give ICE an additional 45B shows how committed they are to seeing this through.

Not every R who voted for the cruelest bill in modern times will be on the ballot in 2026 but you can vote against everyone who is. Every damn one.

Friends, I’m on my way back to D.C. to vote a resounding HELL NO on Trump and the GOP’s big abomination of a bill.   While I travel back, I want to share some of the reasons I’m voting NO. This bill is bad for New Mexico and Americans all across the country.

This is bonkers. The Senate is trying to sell off 3.3 MILLION acres of public land to raise money. This land is your land, as the song says. If you want to keep it that way, call your Senator and raise Holy hell. www.newsweek.com/map-federal-...

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.

He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

This is Kristi Noem admitting that Homeland Security is currently occupying Los Angeles, not to protect citizens, but for purely *political* reasons. Yes, she really is that stupid.

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social

Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city." Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!
