Good. But also? These headlines should be noted. Summers should be resigning. Not because of emails to Epstein, but what was IN those emails. He should be resigning for his racist fetishizing of an Asian protege. Of using his job to attempt to set up sexual encounters. Unprofessional behavior.

“One of the things that I don’t think is getting talked enough about outside of Minnesota,” she said after a pause, “is how much this feels like ethnic cleansing. People are so afraid to go out and participate in public life regardless of their citizenship status. This isn’t about immigration.”

ICE detains 5-year old Minnesota boy; lawyer says agents used him as ‘bait’ The Columbia Heights school district says federal agents have detained four children in their district. School officials and a lawyer for the family say agents used 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramo as “bai...

The Columbia Heights school district says ICE detained four of its students, including a 5-year-old boy, as "bait" to draw out family members.

Curiosity is his thing. Behind the scenes, the otter pup couldn’t resist checking out a training tube, something that’s been part of his world even before he was born! While the tube is used by parents during training sessions, for this little pup it’s just another fascinating thing to investigate.

E.P.A. to Stop Considering Lives Saved When Setting Rules on Air Pollution

Trump’s EPA is now ONLY considering the costs to corporations when setting air pollution rules, not how many lives could be saved.

He does not care if you live or die — if it means his billionaire buddies can save a buck. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/c...

I’ve watched this 85 times solely to watch her take that one guy out at the knees

Ken Paxton has launched a snitch line to gather reports of supposed violations of Texas' transphobic bathroom policing law. Please do not abuse this snitch line. Please do not fill it with faff and nonsense. Please do not attach huge, unwieldy and irrelevant documentation to any reports.

it’s really depressing how little the entitled ghouls who rule over us actually know about American history

At a time when solar and wind are the cheapest forms of new energy in the world, Trump wants to open a BILLION acres of US water to oil drilling.

Why? To line the pockets of his fossil fuel billionaire friends.

The rest of the world moves forward, we get left behind.

Last night’s lavish White House dinner showed us the global oligarchy coming together in plain sight.

By cozying up to MBS, Trump has signaled to the world that the United States is now on the side of authoritarianism, not democracy.

WeRateDogs turns 10 years old today! A very silly idea to numerically objectify dogs has become one of the kindest and most powerful online communities ever. Thank you for joining us over the last decade. I never knew what this could be until you all showed me. Here's to many more good dogs ❤️

Nearly 50 Epstein Survivors Named Over 20 Co-Conspirators — Then Trump’s DOJ Shut the Investigation Down By Amber | TOJ

Epstein survivors shared detailed evidence with federal investigators.

The case was still open until early 2025 and then the DOJ quietly ended it. No charges. No explanation. No notice to survivors. 😩

Rep. Jamie Raskin is now asking why. I’m following it closely, free article ⬇️

16 million children rely on SNAP benefits. Republicans are literally stealing the food out of babies’ mouths.

Stand Tall.
We Will Win.

You must listen to this-

A mass walkout of the UN General Assembly as Netanyahu prepares to speak.

I was just notified of ANOTHER death in ICE custody — the 16th since Trump took office.

The second death TODAY. This is absolutely unacceptable.

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

This is Thanos. He has figured out how to rest and babysit at the same time. Very impressive, very Montessori. 13/10 (TT: thanosthesaint)

They are totally bonded street dogs.

Angelina Jolie has been critically ill in the vets. Bob missed her so much he stopped eating 3 days ago.

Today was a very special day for them ♥️

Dingo, a tan senior chihuahua, sits on the lap of a life-size human dummy. the dummy is wearing a baseball cap, a long and short-sleeve shirt, and a pair of blue jeans. both are on the couch inside a home. Dingo looks perfectly happy and his tongue gives a little blep.

This is Dingo. He gets very anxious if he doesn't have a lap to sit on. In order to meet his lap needs, his family made him an emotional support dummy using pre-worn clothes donated from his grandpa. Dingo couldn't be happier, and we're happy for him. 13/10 #SeniorPupSaturday

This is Remi. He lost his frisbee in the pond. But fortunately, there are frisbees everywhere for those with the eyes to see. 13/10 #SeniorPupSaturday

assassinations, handcuffing a senator at press conference, marines detaining a civilian, and a military parade for the president’s birthday. rough week for democracy.

We have a few dogs we’ve rescued who are old and sick and don’t go far.

They do wander off sometimes for a pee and it’s hard to find them in the jungle.

Not any more 😂😂😂
