ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

I find it amazing too that Republicans’ boycott of Washington isn’t the biggest story of them all.

The shutdown can’t end if they refuse to show up for work.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Just because he's acting like he's never leaving is no reason for you to act like he's never leaving.

Trump: "We're just at the start. We're going to go into other cities that we're not talking about purposely. We're getting ready to go in."

Long-term unemployment at post-pandemic high, straining workers and economy The US economy is seeing a rise in long-term unemployment, with over 1.9 million Americans out of work for 27 weeks or more, sparking concerns about the labor market.

With the right folks in charge, it doesn't take long to get from a US economy that is "the envy of the world" to this:

"The long-term unemployment number is a post-pandemic high and a level typically only seen during periods of economic turmoil..."

www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

“.. one in four people looking for work has been unemployed for at least six months. A year ago it was closer to one in five.”

Donald Trump promised he'd lower grocery prices.

Today, almost all grocery products are more expensive than they were a year ago.

His tariffs are hiking prices and hurting American families.

For those who dont follow right wing media, they have January 6th'd the Charlie Kirk murder.

They all believe it was transgender or radical leftist etc and refuse to talk about Groypers.

It's a cult. Lost.

Concentrate on informing and organizing the majority.

Senate Republicans turn to 'nuclear option' to speed confirmation of Trump nominees The change will allow certain nominees to be confirmed in groups rather than by individual vote. It follows months of GOP complaints that Democrats were dragging out the confirmation process.

If you want to know what's happening with ICE's growing number of air deportations, you need to be following @iceflightmonitor.bsky.social. They are tracking every ICE flight and reporting on the rising numbers and destinations of ICE's sprawling network of deportation flights.

Undaunted from the Bench Sotomayor pulls back the curtain on MAGA Supreme Court hackery

The Supreme Court’s recent rulings continue to push the bounds of constitutionality. Jen Rubin examines how Justice Sonia Sotomayor is pulling back the curtain on the six MAGA justices supporting these radical decisions.

They have never played by the rules, and they will change them to exercise raw power. When we take back that power, we will need to be as ruthless.

The White House posts that the US has now taken in $8 Trillion in tariff revenue so far. Preposterous insane lies on an hourly basis.

This is an unconstitutional and authoritarian power grab.

The constitution grants power over federal elections to the states and Congress - not the president.

F*ck‼️

Fort Bliss Army base used for a WWII Japanese internment is now the nation's largest ICE detention center.

DC police are now harrasssing people on metro bus stops. This is Fascism.

Republican Members of House Appropriations Committee Greenlight White House’s Mass Firing of 80,000 VA Employees

Trump’s House allies just approved the mass firing of 80,000 VA workers.
That’s 1 in 5 VA employees gone — threatening wait times, care access, and veterans’ lives.
This isn’t reform. It’s demolition.

‘Extremely disturbing and unethical’: new rules allow VA doctors to refuse to treat Democrats, unmarried veterans Trump order allows VA staff to decline providing healthcare to patients based on political affiliation or marital status

Cool so now female vets and queer vets get to feel even more othered and anathema at the VA than they already do. The same way they did while serving. Cool. Yay. If there is a god and there is a hell, I hope she is hard at work creating a special level of hell just for these sadistic assholes. 🤬🤬🤬

If America doesn't respond to the calamity that's befallen the working class, we will have Trumps as far as the eye can How to Prevent Future Trumps

Trump announced his first presidential campaign 10 years ago today.

If we really want to prevent future Trumps from coming to power, we will need to address the root causes of his rise. https://youtu.be/zTQoc5Jrciw?si=YUwHCh8OvNAKdBhA

Priorities.

But I was told that DOGE was going to dramatically slash the budget deficit by eliminating DEI grants and Politico subscriptions, firing staff at VA hospitals, and taking away life-saving HIV meds from impoverished African children.

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted away—for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest?

Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.

Elon Musk is now actively campaigning to “KILL the BILL.” New tweet to his ~220 million followers:

ICE Acting Director defends ICE Gestapo agents wearing masks for their safety.

For. Their. Safety.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is the “DOGE Committee Chair” and she did not read #TrumpsBigUglyBill entirely.

Talk about government efficiency !! ...

This has been the case with many Republican House members.

Let your Congress members know about this !
