Of course Trumpty Dumpty believes the 2020 election was rigged. Every accusation he makes is a confession of something he's done or is capable of doing. He knows he rigged the last election so in his warped mind that means that other elections were manipulated as well.

It's -20 in Minneapolis and organizers are in the streets before dawn getting ready for actions related to the general strike. They've had locals training out-of-town volunteers on how to prepare for and endure the cold. AND IT IS WORKING. THE STRIKE IS HAPPENING. THE CITY IS DOING THE DAMN THING...

ICE detains five-year-old Minnesota boy arriving home, say school officials Superintendent says Liam Ramos and his father were taken into custody while in their driveway and sent to Texas

Liam Ramos just arrived home from preschool when he and his father were arrested and taken into custody by ICE agents.

Enough is enough. ICE does not belong in our communities.

Alabama uses Japanese American Internment era law to charge immigrants who donโ€™t self-register Alabama is finding new ways to criminally charge undocumented immigrants

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder.

In 2021 people on the right screamed about freedom and bodily autonomy.

They refused to wear masks. Refused to get vaccinated. Said it was โ€œtyrannyโ€.

In 2026 theyโ€™re urging โ€œcomplete complianceโ€ with unidentified masked men who are shooting people in the streets.

GoFundMe Ignores Own Rules by Hosting a Legal-Defense Fund for the ICE Agent Who Killed Renee Good The fundraiser for the ICE agent in the Renee Good killing has stayed online in seeming breach of GoFundMeโ€™s own terms of service, prompting questions about selective enforcement.

VP Vance has cast the deciding vote in the Senate to cut Medicaid, take away food assistance, blow up the deficit, and add tax breaks for the wealthiest.

This bill is unpopular because it is wrong.

Congress votes this week, but itโ€™s our voices - and our votes - that will have the final say.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

The administration says they're cutting a trillion in government spending. So far, 2025 spending is $1.89 trillion. It was $1.76 trillion at the same time last year. Spending is on pace to increase by 7.4% from last year.

Federal judge indefinitely blocks Trumpโ€™s ban on transgender service members, saying itโ€™s โ€˜soaked in animusโ€™ | CNN Politics A federal judge has indefinitely blocked President Donald Trumpโ€™s ban on transgender service members, dealing a major defeat to a controversial policy the president resurrected from his first term.

The judge said it best, โ€œthe cruel irony is that thousands of transgender service members risk &!sacrifice their lives to ensure the very equal protection rights the military ban seeks to deny them.โ€ We must fight for ALL our military & I mean ALL ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธ

The Bridges Worth Burning Many times a day I think about the people I used to feel close to, the ones I once felt at home with, those whose presence I previously found comfort in.

Simply by my steady volume, my refusal to nurture falsehoods, my insistence on calling out hypocrisy, and my intolerance to discriminationโ€”I am probably forever altering the connection between us.

I am willing to risk this.

Opinion | This Is the Greatest Threat to Free Speech Since the Red Scare Mahmoud Khalilโ€™s detention is a frightening sign of an authoritarian slide.

The unlawful detention of Mahmoud Khalil is one of the most extreme threats to free speech in 50 years.

Trump is sending a message that people who speak out will be punished โ€” but we have a message for him, too.

We'll see you in court.

I was enraged before, but I'm shattered at this point. The trans people that I know and love are the most humble, kind-hearted, accepting, ethical people I've ever known. This defamatory policy is disgusting and small-minded in the extreme. Trans service members deserve respect, not derision.
