we have a completely dysfunctional Court at this point

NYT Editorial Board: “How Trump has pocketed $1,408,500,000 — he took an oath to serve the 🇺🇸 people. Instead, he has focused on using the presidency to enrich himself.”

Shitty newspapers, shitty editors, shitty publishers, shitty values.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

It’s notable that the president can go on TV and be a total gutter racist, and somehow this isn’t news in the slightest. Says a lot about the sickness of American society right now.

US, Canada to send military aircraft to Greenland for routine drills, NORAD says NORAD says the exercises were coordinated with Denmark long before President Donald Trump’s pressure on Greenland for U.S. ownership.

U.S. and Canadian military aircraft will soon be headed to Greenland for routine defense drills.

The exercises were "long-planned" and coordinated with Denmark before President Donald Trump's recent pressure for the U.S. to control the territory, NORAD said in a statement this week.

Going from Mark Carney’s speech to Donald Trump’s press briefing was like going from an iPhone to two styrofoam cups and some string.

A reminder how ICE treats priests.

Quite the statement from the Prime Minister of Poland

ICE has gone so far that even the bro-casters are saying out loud what’s happening in Minneapolis is brutal and wrong. Too many in Congress need to catch up to where we are.

There is no both sides on state violence.

since we no longer have working federal regulators states will all rush to to step in and fill the void

at which point the same people and companies responsible for destroying the federal regulatory state will whine about "an inconsistent patchwork of state enforcement" they created

Big Business Should Wake Up to the Trump Threat Democrats need to engage corporate leaders

“While Trump takes a wrecking ball to the economy (not just the East Wing), most in the business community remain in a fetal position.”

Opinion: Alberta’s oil economy has 10 years before electric takes over. It’s time to invest in the future. Alberta’s oil economy has 10 years before electric takes over. It’s time to invest in the future.

Canada appears to want to make the same big mistake the US is making. Sadly, it's what petrostates do.

"Saudi Arabia can produce oil at roughly $10 per barrel. Alberta’s oilsands typically cost $40 to $60 per barrel. As global demand weakens, Alberta producers are among the most exposed."

Interesting how toxic empathy is being conflated with women having rights and surviving.

There's a million headlines about women being pulled left but little is said about how they're forced there because the right is trying to take away their rights (and their lives)

Women have toxic empathy!

You mean they had a visceral repsonse to being told their rights and freedoms are secondary to the whims of misogynists?

Have yall seen the men of the right?

No wonder women are going left.

This is incredible: 81% of working class and 83% of young voters have seen video of Renee Good's killing, per new data I've obtained. Majority of working class disapproves of ICE enforcement. ICE brutality is breaking through big time.

If you haven’t caught on, Putin is attacking us from within.

Flashbangs burn hotter then lava.

They've caused serious burns, severed hands, and even killed.

*That's* what ICE just tossed into a car full of kids.
