💥 This is EXACTLY what Democrats need to do. They don’t need to copy Republicans with a fake podcast network to sway voters.

They just need the TRUTH. And to repeat it over and over again until sanity is restored and people know what to believe once again.

Enough is enough.

After months of Donald Trump playing around with the California National Guard as if they're his toy soldiers, we're asking the courts to finally return all service members back to California's command.

Let's get them back to the real work they signed up for.

Nice drawing out the word Free in the national anthem. I felt it.

My son (5) when he gets in trouble.

A partial list of what Bovino does not have to tell a federal judge happened today:
*An agent pushed a City Council member in Albany Park
*Agents deployed pepper spray in Albany Park & Evanston
*Agents were involved in a car crash in Evanston
*An agent pointed a gun at a woman in Evanston

You Can't Refuse To Be Scanned by ICE's Facial Recognition App, DHS Document Says Photos captured by Mobile Fortify will be stored for 15 years, regardless of immigration or citizenship status, the document says.

“ICE does not provide the opportunity for individuals to decline or consent to the collection and use of biometric data/photograph collection”

More waste of money from this incredibly wasteful administration.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

Trump ICE Raids Take Jarring Turn as Dem Gov Drops Scary New Warning As Illinois’ Governor warns of worsening fallout from Trump’s assault on Chicago, a political communications expert explains what this saga tells us about the state of our info-wars—and how Dems shoul...

"Of all the Dem govs, Pritzker understands the assignment best," says @davekarpf.bsky.social, because he's communicating that "his citizens are being attacked by Trump’s forces" in a way that'll get "the rest of the country to tune in."

Dave is so good here. Listen:

There is zero legal case for a third term. The Constitution couldn't be more explicit.

Early planning documents reviewed by WIRED describe a statewide transport grid designed for steady detainee transfers across Texas, with ICE estimating each trip to average 100 miles. Every county would have its own small, around-the-clock team of contractors collecting immigrants from local authorities deputized by ICE. It is a subtle transfer of the physical custody process into the hands of a private security firm—authorized to carry firearms and perform transport duties “in any and all local, county, state, and ICE locations.”

NEW: ICE is planning to build a shadow deportation network in Texas. A proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.

Conservative and Liberal Americans can easily see that this Administration official's claim of absolute, unqualified perfection is a lie.

Here are a few of the US citizens who have been arrested and detained, some held incognito for days in inhuman conditions—>

NEW: @govpritzker.illinois.gov says abuses committed by federal agents carrying out President Donald Trump's mass deportation efforts have become "wider and more intense."

Pritzker calls the agents "thugs" who are intimidating law-abiding Chicagoans. @wttw.bsky.social

That statement is correct: “tariffs are taxes”- on us! Trump keeps raising our taxes. And Congress should stop him.

Heartbreaking, and VERY ominous:
♦️Heartbreaking for the man and his family: They will be in mortal danger if forced to return to #Afghanistan.
♦️Ominous, because the Administration's contention-- ie, the Taliban now pose no threat-- could send tens of thousands MORE back to certain peril.

Trump administration makes misleading case in high-stakes asylum hearing Homeland Security asked a judge to deport a man to Afghanistan, where he expects the Taliban to kill him. The case could affect thousands of asylum seekers.

The administration is spending a lot of time and effort to try to send this guy back to Afghanistan to be killed. Shameful and sickening. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

Donald J. Trump t € @realDonald Trump Thad a truly great meeting with President Xi of China. There is enormous respect between our two Countries, and that will only be enhanced with what just took place. We agreed on many things, with others, even of high importance, being very close to resolved. I was extremely honored by the fact that President Xi authorized China to begin the purchase of massive amounts of Soybeans, Sorghum, and other Farm products. Our Farmers will be very happy! In fact, as I said once before during my first Administration, Farmers should immediately go out and buy more land and larger tractors. I would like to thank President Xi for this! Additionally, China has agreed to continue the flow of Rare Earth, Critical Minerals, Magnets, etc., openly and freely. Very significantly, China has strongly stated that they will work diligently with us to

stop the flow of Fentanyl into our Country. They will help us end the Fentanyl Crisis. China also agreed that they will begin the process of purchasing American Energy. In fact, a very large scale transaction may take place concerning the purchase of Oil and Gas from the Great State of Alaska. Chris Wright, Doug Burgum, and our respective Energy teams will be meeting to see if such an Energy Deal can be worked out. The agreements reached today will deliver Prosperity and Security to millions of Americans. After this Historic trip to Asia, I am now heading back to Washington, D.C. I want to thank the Great Countries of Malaysia, Japan, and South Korea for being so generous, gracious, and hospitable — Also, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, who were at the Dinner last night hosted by His Excellency Lee Jae Myung. Hundreds of Billions of Dollars are being brought into our Country because of them. Our Nation is Strong, Respected, and Admired Again and, THE BEST IS YET TO COME! 2.79k ReTruths 11.6k Likes 10/30/25,

Let me sum it up:

US lost $12B in soybean purchases and got $72M one time purchase

All China “promised” is not binding, and is an interpretation of what you understood

You lowered tariffs by 10% after you hiked them to 157%, but forgot and said it’s 57%

TAIWAN? 🦗. China continues business with 🇷🇺

Trump Is Very Confused About Nuclear Weapons The president says he wants to resume nuclear testing but doesn’t seem to know why.

"Resuming nuclear testing looks weak and petulant, not strong and confident," writes Tom Nichols. "No American president should ever let the Kremlin get under his skin—especially not where nuclear weapons are concerned."

Combine this with the elimination of due process and see what you get. Restoring due process is the first priority, but we must as a society build a legal accountability structure for these tools.

Another quote that had it come from any other president would have been a weeks-long scandal. Instead, it's just Wednesday.

Mark my words, bet me money, whatever: "higher turnout is bad for Democrats" will suddenly once again become wrong in 2026 and 2028

It's still hard to believe he just tore down the East Wing of the White House as if he owned the place.

U.S. is not thus far engaged in a non-international armed conflict in connection with these maritime strikes.

But *if* this were a NIAC, U.S. would have LOAC obligations, including that the “wounded and sick and shipwrecked shall be collected and cared for.”

What happened to the latest survivor?

It's going to continue to go down. Agonizingly slowly in social media time. Quickly in political time.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”

It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

As discussed above, government employees have made extrajudicial statements that are troubling, especially where many of them are exaggerated if not simply inaccurate. (Doc. Nos. 118 at 2–8; 124). These statements made allegations regarding Abrego’s “character or reputation” and expressed government officials’ views on Abrego’s “guilt or innocence.” For example, the DHS Secretary stated that Abrego is a “MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator.

A federal judge issues a GAG ORDER barring Trump's DOJ and Department of Homeland Security from violating Kilmar Abrego Garcia's right to a fair trial, citing a record of "troubling" statements that are "exaggerated if not simply inaccurate."
