As someone who was subjected to conversion therapy, it doesn’t work. It won’t work. It’s torture. I was hooked up to an IV and made to vomit watching gay porn for two hours per week. I was prayed over. Bibles and the Book of Mormon were shoved in my face.

ICE isn’t law enforcement.

They’re chaos agents. Trump’s personal goon squad, recruited specifically to stoke fear and unrest in our communities.

They are a catalyst for him to claim absolute power.

Likening them to the Gestapo is accurate…and warranted.

At this point, I’m wondering if Pam Bondi is in the Epstein Files.

Sen. Ruben Gallego: "Mike Johnson is holding Congress out of session for two reasons: number one, so that way there are no negotiations; and number two, to cover for all the pedophiles on Epstein's list...They're covering for pedophiles and dropping your healthcare coverage."

My favorite, but often hard to find

The Justice Department had 36 attorneys assigned full-time to investigate corrupt politicians when Trump took office in January.

Today it has two.

See how this works?

The Oregon National Guard general says if they were to be deployed, they would be instructed under his leadership to protect the protesters and not ICE

Dayum ... just what is in those Epstein files?

The "Antifa" everywhere stuff is really worse than McCarthyism. It's witch trial shit except they can't even find a judge to sanctify it.

Trump posted on Truth Social this morning claiming that Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker should be jailed for “failing to protect ICE officers.” Seriously? ICE officers are upset they can’t use restrooms or grab brunch.

Let's focus on Steven Millers slip up on CNN.
Who the hell does he think he is?

Plenary?Plenary authority?

No Steven Miller, Wrong again!!

No! You do not plenary authority to harm the American Public. It is cruel and illegal. You do not have the executive power to overthrow our own government

Ohio Rep. says Charlie Kirk was killed because we don’t teach enough Christianity in U.S. history books.

Robinson, his parents and two brothers attended the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints church.

Maybe the GOP should start acting more like Christians than just talking about it.

2:15 pm - Speaker Johnson says Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva D-AZ can be sworn in 'as soon as she wants.'

Two hours later, GOP tells reporters Grijalva won't be sworn in until the government shutdown is over.

@democracynow.org had @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social and me on together to explain that she is not being sworn in because she is the 218th signatory for the release of the Epstein files. Swear her in today.

ICE to Buy Tool that Tracks Locations of Hundreds of Millions of Phones Every Day Documents show that ICE has gone back on its decision to not use location data remotely harvested from peoples' phones. The database is updated every day with billions of pieces of location data.

ICE has bought access to an “all-in-one” surveillance tool that gives it updated location data from hundreds of millions of phones, putting us all at risk of being tracked.

The government can’t be allowed to surveil us simply for having a cell phone.

Yes, indeed — what is Mike Johnson's
Grindr handle?

In case you didn't already know this

If you are a federal worker, there are several credit unions and other financial institutions that are offering zero interest loans during the government shutdown.

Please go to my website for more information: www.sanders.senate.gov/resources-fo...

Hoping these federal agents are held accountable, breaking the law should have real consequences. A federal judge has ruled that federal immigration agents illegally arrested more than two dozen people.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

A vegan friend just shared this…

Ruben @gallego.senate.gov, D-Ariz., says GOP senators tell him they want a health care deal. “The biggest sticking point now that I’m hearing from them is like, even if we get something, [Mike] Johnson is just going to tank it. So why? Why would we move if Johnson is going to tank it?”

NEW: Comey is going to file selective and vindictive prosecution motion to dismiss AND he will challenge the legality of Halligan’s appointment! There’s more, too… so glad @annabower.bsky.social is there to bring us the whole story! Thread below with details:

Never before in American history has one state's military force been deployed in another state over its objection.

I say never because the Civil War involved states whose governments legally ceased to exist, their offices vacated by constructive resignation, with no legitimate governors to object.

It's a Show Trial. No amount of makeup or distraction will ever hide your evil soul.

Release the Epstein files.

We will all be safe there

The vindictive prosecutions of political enemies are not a distraction from the Epstein files - they’re one and the same: wielding the power of the DoJ to persecute your foes AND to protect your friends.

In a nutshell.

Tweet from @TheDemocrats: “Senate Republicans just blocked Democrats’ bill that would have reopened the government and saved health care for millions of Americans. This is the fifth time they’ve done this. Republicans are responsible for this shutdown.” There’s no attached image or video, only text.

Now the White House doesn’t want to give furloughed workers back pay once the government reopens, even though Trump signed the 2019 law requiring it. Disgraceful.
