If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.

Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/

Ben Meiselas calls on those with standing to act: seek an injunction to halt Trump’s White House ballroom. Argue fraud—Trump claimed he’d pay and not alter the structure—and use the damage to the East Wing as the emergency basis. Demand discovery now.

It is not widely reported, but Medi-Cal (Cali’s Medicaid) is set to end at the end of December because of the Government shutdown

And CalFresh (Cali’s food stamps) is set to end at the end of October

So millions of people will lose their food assistance & healthcare in a matter of weeks or months

Tonight the president of the United States posted a video of himself wearing a crown and flying a jet that dumps diarrhea all over the United States.

Seriously. He actually did this.

Coast Guard bought Kristi Noem two private jets (I guess if one breaks down). Cost: $172 million. Is that what you call draining the swamp?

I watched this same performance in Feb 2024, when Tucker attempted to “interview” Putin and instead sat there like a fool while Putin rambled for 2 hours about his historical justification for the invasion beginning in the 14th century.

Open enrollment for ACA plans began yesterday in Idaho.

One couple got notice that their monthly premium next year would jump from $51 to $2,232 as subsidies expire.

25,000 Idahoans are expected to be priced out of coverage.

This is what's at stake in Trump's shutdown.

NOT-SO-FUN FACT: Instead of supporting domestic farmers, Trump is now DOUBLING the taxpayer-funded bailout for Argentina, bringing the total to a whopping $40 billion. That’s nearly TWICE the cost of extending the ACA tax credits for an entire year!

I’d say that the kettle has boiled over at this point. The president of the United States has gone totally insane. It’s long past 25th Amendment time but there’s no one with the integrity to do it. What do we do now?

The pace of our transition from Republic to Autocracy continues to accelerate, with all the same pretexts and justifications we’ve seen in other places throughout history for each incremental move. We even have the enablers and quislings that are a necessary precursor.

Army veteran and US citizen arrested in California immigration raid warns it could happen to anyone A U.S. Army veteran arrested during an immigration raid at a California marijuana farm says he was sprayed with tear gas and pepper spray before being dragged from his vehicle on his way to work.

ICE detained a veteran and U.S. citizen for three days.

They didn’t let him contact his family or a lawyer. They didn’t let him change or shower. They didn’t give him a reason for his detention.

Under this regime, no one is safe. apnews.com/article/us-a...

it's so cool that everyone has just completely forgotten that the President doesn't have any legal authority to set US tariff rates

we're like six months into an illegal tax regime being set by imperial decree and everyone's treating it like a totally legitimate thing

This is Macarthur Park in Los Angeles. Republicans have turned the United States in a military police state. I could not even imagine what Fox and Republicans would be saying if Biden or Obama sent the US military to terrorize communities in Texas.

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US.

Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them?

Or just the brown people?
