Another classic post-Homan day where around school dismissal time we get a flurry of ICE vehicles all across our neighborhoods. Today one vehicle led an observer to their own home and pointed at it. This is a sick game to them, but we wonโ€™t be intimidated and we wonโ€™t stop until DHS is abolished.

โ€˜An absolute travesty': Critics slam affidavit behind Fulton raid for relying on 2020 election lies The affidavit reinforced fears that the FBIโ€™s seizure was not about uncovering new evidence but about resurrecting a false narrative.

NEW: The unsealing of the FBIโ€™s search warrant affidavit for its raid of a Fulton County, Georgia, election facility prompted swift condemnation from voting rights advocates, election experts and former federal officials. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Yep, after all what they are saying is true: in the West and beyond, Putin has got only two very fundamental allies -- corruption and profound human stupidity.

Remember, the shitty jobs numbers you see from this administration are their fake numbers. The real numbers are much, much worse.

It isn't an empty gesture, it may not do anything now, but it's a signal to history, and to the world and to ourselves, that this is not ok.

USCIS has an office by mine in south Denver. They have a large parking lot full of brand new black Suburbans lined up. Looks like they are getting ready to ramp things up in Denver.

Report: U.S. added nearly $700 billion to national debt in four months - NewsBreak (The Center Square) โ€“ The U.S. government added $696 billion to the national debt over the past four months, borrowing $94 billion in the month of January

STEALING OUR MONEY!

tRumpstein ADDED $696 BILLION TO THE NATIONAL DEBT OVER THE PAST FOUR MONTHS ...

Borrowing $94 billion in January alone!!!

100% of Gross Domestic Product! The HIGHEST PERCENTAGE THE NATIONAL DEBT HAS EVER MADE UP OF GDP WAS 106%, and that was immediately following World War II

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Project Salt Box: How citizen sleuths are monitoring ICE in Maryland Inside their homes scattered around the Baltimore area, the group of watchdogs is unearthing records, like property filings, contracts, and government procurements, that are otherwise overlooked.

On Monday evening, Rachel Maddow spotlighted this group working out of Baltimore. Just another in a long list of unsung, American heroes. Donate to their project!

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.

No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.

Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?

No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

The โ€˜American Sovereigntyโ€™ ads trying to convince us ICE is full of family people are not working. We can see that ICE is made up of vicious sadistic thugs who want to hurt anyone not like them. They are hired for their cruelty and ignorant stupidity.

Trump said he would end the war in Ukraine on Day 1.

Well, it's day 385 and while Putin continues his bloody assault on Ukraine, Trump has only cozied up to Russia & gotten played by Putin.

He's undermined Ukraine time and again and brought this war no closer to an end.

Khanna: There were two rounds of redactions. There was the original FBI redactionsโ€ฆ and they did a second round of redactions at the DOJ. What theyโ€™re showing members now is the unredacted version of the DOJโ€™s redactionsโ€”not the original FBI redactions. Theyโ€™re in blatant violation of the law.
