The image is an X post by Mike Nellis (@MikeNellis ) from 19 hours ago, stating: "So let me get this straight: a Blackhawk helicopter and dozens of masked, armed federal agents roll up on a Chicago apartment building, cuff everyone—including kids—and then run checks for warrants and immigration status? What the hell is going on in this country? How is that not fascism?" The post includes a verified badge.

Narrator: This is fascism.

the nazis won't stop doing this until they're afraid to keep doing this

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.

Are we great yet?

I have asked the U.S. House to withhold my pay during this government shutdown.

Federal workers across the nation will suffer from this shutdown forced by the President and the GOP's Congressional majorities—and if they can't get paid, neither should members of Congress.

you probably need to be of a certain vintage to understand the absolute hilarity of ken starr being in the epstein files

Military leaders hoping this escalator to hell stops now…

Concerning …

Going independent has meant having the freedom to say that ICE is kidnapping people, to describe our government as authoritarian, and to say more directly when fascism is happening.

I hope we'll start to see this more in large newsrooms before it's too late.

Congratulations to @jimmykimmel.com on his triumphant return!
Last night he was pitch-perfect. Inspirational, self-reflective, gracious to his haters, championing the 1st Amendment & most importantly: FUNNY.

(Shout-out to Robert DeNiro as the mob-boss head of the FCC)😆

It's weird how Tylenol caused autism (first diagnosed in 1943) before it was even invented (1955). What a clever drug.

REMINDER: SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE = OUR MONEY. THEY ARE EARNED BENEFITS, NOT ENTITLEMENTS, NOT HANDOUTS, IT IS OUR MONEY, EVERY LAST PENNY!

My beautiful mother in my wife’s kimono passed down through her family. The kimono is black or navy with many gold and red flowers and a red obi. She has earrings, glasses and a big smile

My beautiful mother in my wife’s kimono passed down through her family. The kimono is black or navy with many gold and red flowers and a red obi. She has earrings, glasses and a big smile. She is with my father and they are lovingly gazing at each other

My beautiful mother in my wife’s kimono passed down through her family. The kimono is black or navy with many gold and red flowers and a red obi. She has earrings, glasses and a big smile. She is hugging lil ol me.

So my mom has just… not had many good days the past few years. Her depression has made it tough to see how beautiful & perfect she is. Part of why I moved in aside from caretaking for my dad was to help her rediscover herself.

So we did a kimono shoot for her bday. Look at her radiant smile y’all.

There’s a ton of Covid out there right now.

Vaccines are becoming harder to access.

The rise of “wellness culture” encourages people to play through the pain.

Please mask up. Stay home if you’re sick. Get your booster if you can. Clean the air & open windows.

Break chains of transmission.

Rest.

"political violence is never acceptable," is a phrase you don't hear politicians say after cops beat the shit out of peaceful demonstrators

GOOD NEWS: Despite RFK Jr saying he would cancel $500 million in mRNA research, the House Committee on Appropriations has passed a spending package, that includes $1.1 billion for “advanced research and development” at BARDA, which includes research on mRNA vaccines.

Great news.

Democrats continue to outperform their 2024 results in every 2025 race.

RIP Chris Steele-Perkins

1947-2025 🩶

Here's a scenario that someone should ask RFK Jr. about: an under-65 person with no major health conditions who is providing some in-person support for an older family member undergoing treatments that weaken the immune system. Can that person get a COVID shot?

It's me, and I can't.

Crying as I type . . .

NEW: In a challenge to the Trump Admin’s weaponization of gov, the court ordered the government to report to it if the IRS receives a request for info from DHS/ICE or makes plans to share more data with DHS/ICE. A great first step as we await decision by the court. Congrats @democracyforward.org
