While we spectate on The East Wing being torn down, it isn’t just another hallway, it’s where Eleanor Roosevelt built the modern Office of the First Lady, where WWII bunkers were hidden, and where the public enters the People’s House. Erasing it is rewriting history.

omg!

"Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House...

"Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..."

I feel like George Santos exemplifies a lot of what’s broken in the “justice” system. He was a corrupt politician, he briefly experienced the horrors of inhumane prison conditions, then the corrupt president moved to yank him out—and his victims received none of what they were owed in the process

Trump bailed out Argentina, who then undercut US farmers by selling their soybeans to China, who used be our biggest customer for soybeans before Trump drove them away with his tariffs.

This is Trump 3D chess in action.

Arrogance, Ignorance and Idiocy.

I see that this small-minded puritanical pixie is laser-focused on getting the government reopened and the troops paid.

Yes, color me shocked.

Kid Rock complaining about other people’s get-ups is quite rich.

Let’s check in on the warzone in Portland.

This is exactly why ICE needs to be unmasked and ID’d — like cops.

📌 Cases of ICE impersonators this year alone outnumber the last four presidential terms combined.

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Michigan Avenue right now.

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

My god.

“Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

Talarico: if you read the new testament, Jesus doesn't spend most of his time preaching or teaching or even praying. He spends most of his time healing the sick.

Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

The Government Shutdown Puts Small Business Lending On Ice The government shutdown halts SBA loan approvals, leaving small businesses without new financing. Short delays sting, but longer ones risk bigger fallout.

South Shore Residents Return To Ransacked Apartments After ICE Raid: 'It Looks Like Hell' A "now renting" sign outside touts granite countertops. Inside, residents are trying to make sense of the raid that made their already neglected building even worse.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

RIP Barbie 🕯️I miss you and your sweet face every day.

Enjoy some truth about the #TrumpShutdown @markwarner.bsky.social

Our service members? Unpaid.

Checks to Argentina? In the mail.

In all the chaos, I would urge folks to remember that a lot of folks now don’t know when their next check will come.

The vast majority are good people who love this nation deeply, and many of them are still working despite not knowing when they’ll be paid

Have compassion.

1/5 Elon Musk and David Sacks are attacking Wikipedia again.

They say they will replace it with “Grokipedia.”

Why? Because quick, free, independent fact-checking is their enemy.

They cannot control it. And that terrifies them

RIP Jane Goodall 🙏

Her Trump description:

"I see the same sort of behavior as a male chimpanzee will show when he’s competing for dominance with another"

Hegseth acts entitled to speak for the every day working class service member.

As if some tattoos and pretending too hard to care about beards and fightin’ and not that paper work crap is going to make me forget he was a Guard officer from Princeton who worked at Bear Sterns as his day job

"I don't want my son serving alongside troops who are out of shape or in combat units with females who can't meet the same combat arms physical standards as men" - Pete Hegseth, defense secretary

😬 whoopsy. Freudian!

So I looked and we have had 6 shutdowns over the past 20 years. 4 of them were caused by Trump

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane
