"This is Mia, 7 years old -- 'I don't want to be in this place. I want to be in my school'" -- Walkinshaw confronts Lyons with letters written by kids being detained by ICE

I don't have one.
Maybe you shouldn't have one either.

Really would like to see more from @chrispappasnh.bsky.social and @goodlander.house.gov on this.

I live in Merrimack, am frankly terrified of the future, and have no apparent like-minded advocates in the federal government #nhpolitics

5 glaring warning signs for Republicans in this year's midterm elections Here's why Republicans are facing an uphill battle, particularly for retaining control of the House.

I make a monthly contribution to NPR and am wondering why with NPR running headlines "Warning Republicans"?

Why not "Americans are fed up with Trumps Private Army and Death Cult and are looking for better governance?"

Anyone running for office in New Hampshire in November should read this article.

American's are under attack from Trumps private army and the perverse Epstein class.

Your constituents are not going to accept "mild reforms and reach across the aisle compromise". Prove you will fight.

Opinion | A New Jersey Primary Shows the Depth of Democratic Fury

This @michellegoldberg.bsky.social piece is a must read on how angry the Democratic electorate is and how badly some moderates are still misreading it

(gift link)

A "Zahltag" Moment, in a United States of “On To Cincinnati” The crimes of Trump & Epstein are heinous, dark, and deep—but the perpetrators walk free. To survive as a democracy, we can't "turn the page." We must hold the traitors to account. Here's how.

"I don’t know if we are in a battle for the soul of the nation, as Biden once said. I don’t know if nations have souls. And if they do, I’m not sure ours wasn’t lost long ago. What I do know is that if there are no consequences for what these Trump villains are doing now, there is no coming back."

MAGA is a literal death cult.

We don’t know how he is compromised, but by his actions we know he is.

Our Sisters and Brothers in Minneapolis is still being brutalized. They will need our support to continue. That is our job.
If everyone does something, we all win. Everything matters.

Prisons are for people who've been CONVICTED of crimes.

Most people in these warehouses - without proper food or sanitation or worse - haven't even been CHARGED with crimes.

And thousands are CHILDREN.

This will be another of America's greatest shames.

Leslie Wexner is one of the 10 co-conspirators named by the FBI during the 2019 arrest of Epstein.

He gave Epstein millions of dollars and the $70 million NYC townhouse.

Leon Black gave Epstein over $170 million.

Both men are alive.

How come they've never been asked to testify?

Vermont US Representative Becca Balint being interviewed by Drop Site News shortly after reviewing more, unreleased Epstein files saying
"They're all a bunch of sick fucks"

🧵 In response to my posts on X today, DOJ 1) unredacted an FBI file that LABELS two individuals as co-conspirators 2) unredacted a file that lists several men who might be implicated 3) tacitly admitted that Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem was the sender of the torture video

Thomas Massie is cooking right now and explicitly states that UAE Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem was sending torture videos to Epstein

Fuck these fucking fuckers.
Not Tourette’s.
Just done today.

I took part in a Stand With Minnesota event last week where I asked Mayor Frey about the negative impact ICE is having on the Minneapolis business community

worst Mortal Kombat roster of all time

Rep. @reprashida.govpeeps.us : “A whistle and a cell phone — that’s all our residents are using to protect themselves in the streets… they’re making money off our babies being imprisoned.”

(H/T @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social )

“Collection of Handwritten Letters from Children in Detention Center” sounds like an exhibit in the Holocaust Museum.

We cannot let them have one of these in New Hampshire.

Crockett: "All this administration cares about is protecting the powerful and protecting pedophiles. They will do anything to distract from that, including deciding to put up in the middle of Black History Month the most racist thing that we've ever seen come out of a White House."

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

They’ve Always Known He is A Racist... They just never cared

The time for mincing words and normalizing his ethnic cleansing campaign (disguised as “immigration policy”) is over. Trump is a racist. His party tolerates if it does not actively endorse his racism. Those who normalize him enable racism. His agenda is racist open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

News to brighten your day.

This is torture. The US is torturing children. Children whose words and whose art contain infinitely more humanity than the people keeping them detained.

Migrants languish in US detention centers facing dire conditions and prolonged waits Prolonged detention has become more common in President Donald Trump’s second term, at least partly because a new policy generally prohibits immigration judges from releasing detainees while their dep...

“Detention center” is a euphemism for these prisons of due process-free cruelty. It’s time to start calling them what they are: concentration camps. apnews.com/article/immi...
