"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944

🚨✊🏼ICE agents OUTNUMBERED by PEOPLE, forced to retreat! Share this! If Chicago can do this, we can ALL do this. 🚨1/2

Baltimore’s mayor slams Trump troop threat: “What we want from the president is very simple.” "These cities, these people, these communities—they aren't a political pawn," says Mayor Brandon Scott.

Baltimore mayor to Trump: Don’t send your troops.

"What we want from the president is very simple," says Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott. "Reinstating all the cuts that they’ve made to federal grants to programs that have been working to reduce violence.”

Keep taking videos of what ICE is doing. @govpritzker.illinois.gov is right, document what’s happening. This is why they hate journalists so much.

My message to Kristi Noem is clear: Get out of Chicago.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Hungover Hegseth Struggling To Remember How He Ended Up In Room Full Of Generals QUANTICO, VA—Racking his brain for answers as he gazed out at the high-ranking officers gathered before him, a visibly hungover Pete Hegseth reportedly struggled Tuesday to remember exactly how he end...

Hungover Hegseth Struggling To Remember How He Ended Up In Room Full Of Generals

Questions After Quantico U.S. military commanders around the world will be working to provide steady leadership after Hegseth’s bravado and Trump’s bluster.

After the PT tests, the body-fat standards, the qualifications for combat arms roles are worked through, soldiers will ask the real question: *Are we really supposed to see fellow Americans as adversaries?* ICYMI @markhertling.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/questions-...

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

The image is an X post by user @covie_93 from 16 hours ago, stating: "BREAKING: Tim Scott is asking for clarification after Hegseth calls for getting rid of beards." The post includes a photo of two individuals, one in a suit and tie and the other in a blazer with a lanyard, standing side by side.

Oh, that is fire, as the kids say.

Scientific fact. 😂🤣👇

If you wonder how bad the Epstein Files are for Donald, he had the federal government shut down so you wouldn't find out.

Hurting their own

👇👇

Don't fool yourselves. During the Nazis reign of terror, people back then were making excuses no different than the blissfully ignorant fools who are currently making excuses for the Trump regime. 😳👇

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked Trump from deploying the National Guard in Portland, ruling he overstepped his authority and violated state sovereignty. The court said Trump’s move lacked any “colorable basis” and was not justified by conditions on the ground.

When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.

I waited to post this until I had permission from the writer. This is real and it's frightening. The blood running through the veins/arteries of the monsters in the R' party/Project 2025/Russell Vought has been replaced with cruelty and evil. 😡🤬😭

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans.

Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies.

Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

Mark Kelly: “lf you are undocumented in our country, you cannot get healthcare from the Affordable Care Act exchange. You are not eligible for Medicare. You are not eligible for Medicaid. They’re just making that up. They just like to blame brown people.”

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism.

I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory!

Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.

If you drive a 2025/2026 Tesla or still use X, there really isn't an excuse. You really are just an asshole that looks the other way.

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

He’s foaming at the mouth to go full Gestapo.

Scott Jennings is either lying or wildly misinformed about what happened in Chicago. He keeps claiming 37 Tren de Aragua gang members were arrested. As if it excuses zip tying kids.

DHS says 37 were arrested, and only 2 were suspected gang members.

Van Lathan gets it. We can’t lose our humanity.

Oregon AG Rayfield: Huge win at this moment in our democracy right now.

This is the president that is normalizing the use of the United States military in our country.

So to get this strong of a ruling out today for the public to see—it’s incredibly important.
