A 'Shark Tank' alum needed cash to pay tariffs. This shadowy lending world was ready How about $350,000 within hours? The pitches flood small businesses: "No hidden fees, No BS." These financial lifelines are barely regulated and can turn into trip wires.

Baddies vote in the midterms
💙

Please, please call your Congressional reps. This inhumanity cannot be allowed to continue. 202-224-3121

Bad Bunny once used an award stage to stand with women and call for an end to domestic violence.
No gimmicks.
No hedging.
Just a clear message about dignity, safety, and respect.
That’s real power. ✊🏽 #BadBunnyBowl

Democrats have raised questions about the delay. “The law is clear: when a whistleblower makes a complaint and wants to get it before Congress the agency has 21 days to relay it,”

Y’all think Trump’s GOP gives a shit about our laws?
Bunch of pedos.

Twin Cities tow truck driver returns abandoned vehicles to families after ICE arrests Juan Leon sends a "chase" car to check out where abandoned vehicles are located and arranges discreet drop-offs. Since late December, he estimated they have dropped off 250 cars.

ICE has grabbed so many people from their vehicles that there are abandoned cars across Minnesota.

This tow truck driver returns the cars for free as a public service, and he’s been getting death threats.

They hate the helpers.

Which is why must keep helping.

Democratic Senator Pushes For Really High Minimum Wage The Arizona Democrat and possible Democratic presidential candidate has staked out an aggressive position on a paycheck issue.

Tell Congress: Impeach DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Contact Congress today!

If you agree firing Kristi Noem is way overdue, here’s something you can do about it RIGHT NOW!

Tremendous!

People keep asking, "How did Jeffrey Epstein make his money?" HE. WAS. A. PROFESSIONAL. MONEY. LAUNDERER.

That was long ago established. Only the crooked and corrupt people protecting each other act as though it's a mystery.

Thank you so much, Annette! 💙🫂 Sorry I'm so late.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alberto Castañeda Mondragón says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance. But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain. He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again. He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

21 Hardy souls from Cheboygan, Michigan & neighboring areas braved predicted wind gusts of 39 mph & sustained winds of 18 mph (but a sunny lovely day) to protest the incomplete release of the Epstein files & the sloppy redactions or cruel lack thereof.

I want to thank everyone who posts gift articles of really important stories that all Americans should read but are behind paywalls so most can’t.

There are some stories that are so important to the public interest that media companies should remove paywalls on some occasions.

Ossoff: "You're seeing what I'm seeing, right? The president posting about the Obamas like a Klansman."

What Vic Mensa said...

For those keeping score at home:

More Wisconsin sheriffs likely to enter agreements with ICE Already, more than a dozen counties have some type of agreement to assist ICE.

Wisconsin sheriffs signing up to be ICE’s sidekicks is not “public safety,” it’s a jail-to-deportation pipeline. These deals can mean 48-hour extra holds so ICE can come scoop people up. Hard pass. Call your sheriff, your county board, and make noise! 🦡☕ #Wisconsin #FuckICE #ICE #StayOutOfWisconsin

Pay attention. Concentration camps are being built right now.

ROLLING STONE: “The damage from Miller’s grand designs are plain for all to see. Americans’ mistrust and hyper-partisanship has grown only more poisonous. The country feels like a tinder box and Miller, and ICE are running around with lit matches.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Replying to @Golfer Pete very sad and heartbroken, but he surprised me when he shared that he hopes everyone will go out and vote in the midterms to make some changes 😭 Please help me spread the word.... TikTok video by Mai Xiong

Check out the TikTok series from MI Rep @maixiong.bsky.social on her visit to the GEO Group's North Lake ICE detention camp in Baldwin Michigan. It's abominable that our taxes are enriching private concentration camps & ICE dehumanization. Defund and dismantle ICE!
