New SAVE Act Bills Would Still Block Millions of Americans From Voting The “show your papers” requirement is an attack on the freedom to vote.

The SAVE Act is an election power grab that could block millions of eligible voters.

Let’s be clear: we’ve already seen U.S. citizens detained by ICE despite having proof of citizenship. Now we’re supposed to trust this same government to police paperwork at the ballot box? tinyurl.com/yhwj7b77

They have Portland, Maine, as their targets now. Beware. Minneapolis and Minnesota have taught us how to protect our neighbors, our friends, the people of our communities. We will use those lessons.

it will really be something if the Epstein Files unseat a British Prime Minster who isn't in them, and not the American President who was Epstein's best friend.

Family demands answers after South Florida mom fatally shot by Miami-Dade Sheriff's deputy: "This is insane" Relatives are questioning the use of deadly force after deputies responded to a mental health crisis call, as state officials launch an investigation.

Miami police shot and killed a woman experiencing a mental health crisis this weekend after her 12-year-old daughter called for help.

No mental health crisis should turn deadly by those called to help. Our hearts are with the family as they await answers.

Immigrant whose skull was broken in 8 places during ICE arrest says beating was unprovoked Alberto Castañeda Mondragón was hospitalized with eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages. Officers claimed he ran into a wall, but medical staff doubted that account.

ICE detainee had 8 skull fractures & 5 brain hemorrhages from beating. "[Alberto] Castañeda Mondragón... [recalled] ICE officers striking him with the same metal rod used to break the windows of the vehicle.... He later identified it as an ASP, a telescoping baton...” www.npr.org/2026/02/07/g...

Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

Today should be another reminder that when billionaires take control of vital platforms for communication, it’s not a win for free speech or "free markets."

It’s a win for oligarchy.

We can’t have someone enforcing the law who isn’t even following the law himself. The American people deserve to know if Tom Homan took $50k from an FBI undercover agent and what he did with the money.

funny how the man who cost the Washington Post hundreds of thousands in subscriptions by canceling the paper's presidential endorsement—almost certainly the most destructive decision in the history of the paper, if not journalism itself—still has his job

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power.

They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

If Jeff Bezos had any strength of character he would pay someone to take the newspaper he's destroyed off his hands and contribute money to a trust to restore it.
