Thoughts and prayers don’t stop mass shootings, and they don’t stop climate disasters either.

This is a tragedy Gov. Greg Abbott did nothing to prevent. He still denies that climate change is real. He won’t act, and he won’t regulate.

ICE just raided our local Home Depot in Orlando. Of course, the masked thugs didn’t pick up any members of MS-13 — just a few hardworking immigrants trying to put food on the table for their families.

"Some experts say staff shortages might have complicated forecasters’ ability to coordinate responses with local emergency management officials," per NYT.

We the people have spoken. Congress must do their job and represent the will of the nation. Say NO to “King” Donakd!

Touché.

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers.

Easy money, no risk.

Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime.

@jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

13-yr-old Camarria Williams made a remarkable discovery when she found a compound with potential cancer-fighting properties in goose poop from Garfield Park, Chicago.

Elizabeth Warren to Sarah Eisen: "I'm sorry -- you're throwing a giant parade and tossing confetti over regulations that, let's see what happened over the last 9 months -- Wells Fargo has been tagged for money laundering, it's been tagged for engaging in consumer fraud ... that makes no sense."

Top CDC covid vaccine adviser quits after RFK Jr. ended recommendations Lakshmi Panagiotakopoulos said she could no longer help vulnerable people after officials removed recommendations to immunize children and pregnant women.

A top coronavirus vaccine adviser at the CDC has resigned, citing concerns that she could no longer help vulnerable people after officials rescinded recommendations to immunize children and pregnant women.

A bunch of those “agents” weren’t even wearing uniforms. Tactical vest and jeans do not an officer make

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE.

Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it.

Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

Here’s a rare member of the U.S. Senate who seems to understand how close we are to a dictatorship.

Another addition to the long list of examples of the fact that hate ages you quickly.

Minneapolis… San Diego… Folks are pushing back.

This is only going to get worse.

I kinda miss the days when we had a President who didn’t spend every Adderall waking moment rage tweeting like a 15 year old cheerleader dumped by the quarterback and writing in her burn book…

Moskowitz: "Nothing has been made more efficient. Here are the wins for congressional Rs. You ready? They're gonna do a $9b recession bill. They're gonna get rid of Elmo, which the American people were clamoring for, but they're gonna add $2.4t for the debt. And then they want us to cheer for them."

POCAN: You said the president supports the big bill passed out the House. You also said the president doesn't support cutting Medicare.

VOUGHT: Correct

POCAN: In the bill, there's a $500b cut that gets triggered to Medicare. You might want to take a look at that provision.

Lee: Would say it would be “illegal DEI” for a lesson plan on the Tulsa race massacre?

McMahon: I’d have to get back to you

Lee: Do you know what the Tulsa race massacre is?

McMahon: I’d like to look into it more and get back to you on it.

POCAN: Is the federal govt currently spending less this year than it did last year?

VOUGHT: No, it's not

POCAN: Part of that is because you've sent us a recession package worth $9b that goes after Big Bird and Cookie Monster, but you've added $200b to Defense and Homeland Security.

Watched it at the Academy last weekend, great film and cast!

You’re telling me this guy was on drugs? I’m not buying it.

Yes, you did vote to deport moms.

San Diego erupts at ICE raiding a local restaurant and detaining ALL staff.
