These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to.

This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented.

So ICE took her into custody.

The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck.

Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all

Disrespect for Congress.
YouTube video by Senator Cory Booker Disrespect for Congress.

The disrespect for Congress and the law is glaring - and for our nation a threat to our public safety.

No matter where you go in this beautiful country, people tend to want the same basic things out of an American life:

Security. Opportunity. Freedom. I hear it everywhere I go.

And every time I do, I find myself feeling proud of Minnesota.

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

SURPRISE!!!! The NYT did an analysis of the press room and exposes how Karoline Leavitt relies on planted stooges in the room to throw propaganda soft balls she uses to lie to the public.

This is how authoritarian states are run.

Trump will reportedly end the IRS Direct File program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free.

This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file.

Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?

Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst gets her first Democratic challenger for 2026 In his launch, Nathan Sage touts his background as a veteran, mechanic and sports radio announcer, pushing for a party that "people like me will actually want to be a part of."

There is HUGE interest in replacing Joni Ernst in Congress.

Given her reluctance to actually do her job or fully connect with her constituents, it's HIGH time for that to happen.

A teacher in Florida was just fired for using a student’s preferred pronouns. GOP politicians are trying to put this kind of hateful policy into federal law, and I spoke out against their efforts in a recent Education Committee meeting.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. 

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

Best case he turns off Apr 2nd tariffs Monday. Leaves the 10pct tariffs (not great, but realistic). Elon leaves Doge, which decides to stagger the cuts over 3 yrs, accounting for local impact.
That slows the economy, reducing interest rates, reducing payments on debt to affordable levels.

If folks had voted for the Black lady who wanted to tax the rich and give everyone else a tax cut, we wouldn’t be having this problem.

This guy nails it. 🔥

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.
