Well, I've wandered over here from Twitter (I never called it X). I'm the same beer brewing, bee keeping, activist retiree. Just more disillusioned. Candidates come and go. The sentiment remains. #NotMeUs jimmysrant.blogspot.com

This is his go-to answer. He always says he doesn't know, hasn't seen it, or needs to learn more about it.

There's only two choices here: he's willfully ignorant or he's lying. Neither are acceptable for a Speaker of the House.

Tomorrow will bring obscene displays of Trump self congratulation propaganda via corrupted mass media, so take care, avoid or be prepared for the mental assault, its great there’s a pause & exchange of hostages but Palestinian death & suffering continues in Gaza & the conveniently ignored West Bank

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him Subramanyam β€œSubu” Vedam now faces deportation.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

My father was an immigrant, and later naturalized citizen. I am first generation. These terms matter. Especially, as they try to gut the 14th Amendment and birthright citizenship.

This is mislabeled. Melania is not first generation; she's an immigrant. Barron is first generation. (As are Ivanka, Don Jr., and Eric).

The fact that they don't is a good example of why most of us now ignore them.

Why is this surprising? Hillary is rabidly pro-Israel. What about Bari Weiss would offend her.

We need EVERYONE to turn out next Saturday for a peaceful No Kings protest near you. Please look for an event near you and show up. Let’s make this the biggest ever. We cannot give in to authoritarianism and fear. We are losing our freedoms and our country. www.mobilize.us

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning.

A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

Closer? If Congress can't, or won't, make him stop, it already is a dictatorship.

Unless the so-called opposition party, & the unions, organize & call out mass, sustained, demonstrations, and a general strike, the country will accept anything. Ignoring the 4th amendment, concentration camps, the occupation of one of the greatest cities in the world by troops from another state.

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence.

This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less.

Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

This is an easy fix for the IL legislature and @govpritzker.illinois.gov to fix ASAP.

🚨 β€œThey put black people in one van and immigrants an another… Trucks and military style vans were used to separate children from their parents.” THIS. IS. HAPPENING. People need to see this. We all need to see it. Nobody gets a pass here. Please share with your networks. 1/2

This is piracy! The navies of the United States, U.K. , E.U. countries, and Turkey, should be protecting this flotilla in international waters. Heck, they should BE the flotilla.

Watching Judgement at Nuremberg. I first saw it, when I was a young boy, on Bloody Sunday, when the cops attacked civil rights marchers in Selma. It's frighteningly more relevant today.

'I want his name to be known': Wife of immigrant injured at ICE facility shooting speaks out Stephany Gauffeny says she wants the world to know that her husband, Miguel Angel Garcia-Hernandez, is more than "just an immigrant or a detainee, or a criminal."

The White House made a big deal about the shooting at the ICE facility, but they dont want to talk about thr actual shootibg victims, one of whom is being kept alove by machines but is still shackled to his hospital bed. www.npr.org/2025/09/27/n...

Instead, we've got Hakeem Jeffries eulogizing Eric Adams political career, instead of campaigning for the nominee of his own party. I hold the rest of the House Democrats responsible, for re-electing Jeffries as leader.

ICE has erected a gate to keep protesters out. They are blocking a public street, despite the Broadview Fire Department ordering ICE to tear it down.

Join us at 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM. Tell Broadview to tear this fence down.

Odd, how we can’t afford to give Americans healthcare, but we can afford to drop $200,000,000,000 on Argentina with a moment’s notice.

Israel is deliberately depriving people of aid in #Gaza.

MSF’s new report shows how restrictions blocked medical supplies, sometimes even forcing our teams to perform procedures without anesthesia.

These people hate it when you make them prove their allegations instead of just allowing them to go straight to sentencing & punishment. His bs case against Lisa Cook has fallen apart making him look like the buffoon he is, so they want to remove her now before a hearing.
