Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

A tweet by Jamie Bonkiewicz reads, β€œThis photo is the reason women cover their drinks.” Below it is a photo of three men in suits standing in a room with military personnel behind them. The man in the center gestures with both hands, while the other two stand with serious expressions.

Why is Jared Kushner there!?
Is he there to offer a bribe?
Is he there to secure money for him and Trump?

Mark Kelly: β€œPete Hegseth is not a serious person. He’s unqualified for this job. I think he is the least qualified Secretary of Defense in the history of our country by far. & this President thinks he can bully & intimidate people? He’s not gonna stop me from speaking out & holding him accountable”

Thou shalt not pretend that you’re at war with drug traffickers while pardoning drug traffickers.

Klobuchar: "What the president has done is taken a horrific crime that occurred in DC and went 2,400 miles away to Somali & somehow indicted an entire group of people, 80k of them in my state, as well as all naturalized citizens. This is what he does. He tries to make people hate each other."

Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.

1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.

2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.

3. Russia pays everyone for everything.

4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.

Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Genuine question: has any GOP member of house or senate spoken out about the Dept of defense and Hegseth threatening sen Mark Kelly with lawfare? Beyond disturbing

Especially any veterans?

Shame on all those who stay silent

Rep Jasmine Crockett on MTG quitting: β€œI was like, you got to be kidding. You’re on the other side of the president for one week and you can’t take the heat? Imagine what it is to sit in my shoes.”

Greene fanned the flames of hate for years and can’t handle the monster she helped create.

To the six Democratic lawmakers who made that beautiful video reminding our military members of their duty and obligation to NOT obey illegal orders, I say this:

Make MORE of them.

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE β€œbrown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.
