I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason. Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

"The original #NoKings protest was 250 years ago. We've had democracy since then. Now we have a would-be king who wants to take it away—King Donald the First. Fuck that. Stand up and be counted in the nationwide No Kings protest on October 18."

No, Speaker Johnson: The No Kings Rally on October 18 is not a “hate America” rally. Quite the contrary. It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country.

This is what ice is doing

ICE agents are cowards….ashamed to show their faces.

GOV. PRITZKER: “This is a convicted felon threatening to jail me? He’s an unhinged, insecure wannabe dictator. Come and get me.”

Idaho voted Trump….. reaping what they sowed.

Miller is a sack of shit

Information is power. Banning books threatens free ideas and stifles our democracy.

At Democracy Forward, we’ve taken book bans to court – and won. This #BannedBooksWeek, we pledge to continue the fight against censorship. Because #CensorshipIsSo1984.

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families — and we’re making that crystal clear by giving you the data.

We’ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district.

Let’s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

Responding to Trump's latest deadly bombing of a boat in international waters, Amnesty International USA declared: “This is murder. The US government must be held accountable.”

Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

The Price of Remission: This Cancer Drug Saves Lives — but Costs a Fortune. I Wanted to Know Why. When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked ...

Revlimid has its origin in a pill that cost patients $7.50 each.

Decades later, the cancer drug costs more than $18,000 for a month’s supply — even though it still only costs about 25 cents to manufacture.

Jackie and her four young children were kidnapped from a picnic by ICE.

Today, those kids are still missing their mother.

Listen to Jackie’s friend, Mimi, tell their story:

What??? You mean Noem missed the photo op with zip tied children.

Mike Johnson continues to refuse to swear in a Democrat who won in a landslide.

If you live in:

South Dakota
Louisiana
West Virginia
Wyoming
Tennessee
Mississippi
Alaska

Call your right wing Senator and ask them why they're pushing to increase their constituents healthcare prices so much.

President Trump tells us exactly who is responsible for the shutdown, and we couldn't agree more.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

How Tom Homan wound up ensnared in an FBI contracts-for-cash sting A former associate of Trump’s border czar allegedly proposed a $1 million scheme last year that put FBI agents on Homan's trail.

BREAKING: The White House claimed the FBI deep state targeted Homan in the $50K bag-o-cash bribe for government contracts, but it was actually a fellow ICE colleague that steered undercover agents to Homan. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/e...

Blaming Democrats for a shutdown when you control the House, Senate, and the White House only proves you can't govern.

If you don’t think it’s fair to call Trump/MAGA fascists read this and then get back to me

Another stellar Trump appointee

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.

YouTube video by Katie Phang Trump Faces MAJOR DISASTER as Detainees DISAPPEAR

Shocking new reporting from the Miami Herald: hundreds of detainees MISSING after being detained at Alligator Alcatraz.

I’ve got the latest, incl. the appeals court ruling that makes no sense & the financial blackhole DeSantis has put FL in while chasing Trump’s love.
