The 53 cars at the Hagerstown Maryland warehouse this morning, appearing a few hours after we left, are NOT the 100 on their way from Minneapolis.

Detention center is more MASSIVE than you can imagine. All this “moving in” while there’s a law suit from MD & other actions to keep from opening.

😕

Is this really where we are? A sitting member of Congress going after fellow members like this is wild.

The fake sympathy paired with a swipe at two Muslim colleagues is straight-up Islamophobic garbage.

Currently trending on X.

This is a public service announcement for anyone living in the USA, midterms are coming and you have a moral obligation for yourself, everyone around you, and even those across the world, to vote out fascism. Don't make excuses. Don't give fascists the benefit of the doubt. Use. Your. Vote.

Can Trump cancel the election in all 50 states and DC? No. Can he even rig the rules for state run elections? Also no. Is it seriously alarming that the thought is on his mind? And that the media and the Dems don’t seem to think this is a big priority? Yes.

US military used laser to take down Border Protection drone, lawmakers say Members of Congress say the U.S. military used a laser to shoot down a Customs and Border Protection drone.

Resign.
Resign.
Resign.

Have some basic decency: resign.

Instagram post describing mourners carrying Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a nearly blind Rohingya refugee, to his grave in Buffalo after he died with no money or help, following his release from immigration detention.

Nurul Amin Shah Alam-blind Burmese refugee was using a curtain rod as a cane when he got lost on a walk last year. A woman called the police. He was arrested and transferred to border patrol.
Border patrol agents released him five miles from his home without notifying his attorney or his family. 💔

A Supreme Court Shield for Big Oil Would Come at Your Expense When we talk about someone wanting to both eat their cake and still have it, we’re using a logical impossibility to highlight the cake-haver’s delusional mental state. When it comes to the fossil-fuel...

"If you want to know who will ultimately pay in this scenario, just look in the mirror. Even as your home-insurance rates rise, so will your taxes. All of this will drive down property values, especially in the places most at-risk from climate disasters. And that will hurt muni finances even more."

Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.

It’s time to make Citizens United history. Montana — and now California — can lead the way. Here's how.

Abortion laws show that public policy doesn’t always line up with public opinion Polls indicate majority support for abortion rights in most states, but laws differ greatly between places that uphold such rights and those that ban the procedure.

Representational government rests on a simple idea: that the laws the nation lives under generally reflect what the public wants. But abortion serves as a clear example of how difficult it can be to translate public opinion into law.

Resilience, ridicule guarantee hate group’s flop at D.C. anti-abortion march When 120 white nationalist Patriot Front members descended on Washington, D.C., they were met by counterdemonstrators and clown music.

NEW, from me: I talked to people who shut down Patriot Front's rally in D.C. last month.

Counter-demonstrators made it impossible for PF to produce propaganda and recruit at the March for Life rally. The clown music set the tone.

I need to rant about something this morning.
I really am getting irritated by resistance accounts that, while otherwise approaching our problem correctly, keep telling us voting won't matter and the election won't be free and fair. Not only is that not helpful, it's actually harmful...

I miss having a president who treated people with basic human decency and could communicate clearly and coherently.

People who don’t know information are ignorant and, from this ignorance, can think foolishly. But this becomes stupidity when rejecting offered evidence that could remove their ignorance. And even more foolish than that is being proud of not wanting to learn and staying ignorant.

I know I sound like a broken record, but is our military paying attention?

Do the generals and admirals get it yet? They’ll be slaughtering people in foreign lands while the American people are sick and dying or dying in concentration camps at home.

You won’t be fighting for anything worthwhile.

3/3 ... this is not what our founders envisioned — not by a long shot. so I’ll ask again: is the president working for you? we all know the answer is no.” Actually, Madame Governor, it's a resounding F**K NO!!

If another country suspects that Americans have drugs on their boat are they allowed to blow it up and kill everyone too, or are only we allowed to do that?

Ukrainians have changed the way they wage war; they no longer ask when it will end, but only how. They are stopping a dangerous aggressor. Unlike us, they don’t even ask us to say thank you.

Trump in his SOTU said he was going to do whatever he wanted without congressional approval as required by the Constitution.
The Republican Congressmen applauded en masse.
The most disgusting display of cowardly grovelling ever.
