In the past, sometimes presidents have said it’s just a military operation or limited airstrikes to skirt Congress. Trump has unilaterally launched major combat operations, declaring war with the goal of regime change. A major violation of the U.S. Constitution, also illegal under international law

The first deaths announced from the US-Israeli strikes on Iran: dozens of school girls. They hit an elementary school in Hormozgan.

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

I have, in fact, taken a bus to Chinatown (from Mohegan Sun), stood on Canal….and Bowery.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

WATCH: β€œPERFORMATIVE GARBAGE.”

Tennessee Dems Sen. @jeffyarbro.bsky.social & Rep. @jrclemmons.bsky.social react to the Stephen Miller slate of anti-immigrant hate, where Tennessee Republicans are pushingβ€” including turning schools into informants and keeping undocumented kids out.

Always remember THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS. In the realm of Online, they can just say things and have them treated as true. In the realm of Real Life, there are 115,000 polling places in America and DHS has like 15,000 dudes total.

Really nuts how many men were like "Me Too went too far, and I need to email Jeffrey Epstein about it."

Guys they are really, really not winning

It sucks what they’re doing to our country, and my city especially

God only knows how much damage they’ll do before they’re stopped, much of it irreversible

But they are very much not winning

This is sad, but good: Artists are refusing to normalize this idiocy, and instead of just commanding performances - which they can't do - the Trump people are closing it down and slinking away.

Sitting President attempts to steal $10 BILLION from taxpayers.

The most corrupt regime of our lifetimes. With no close second.

And the Hunter hunters are silent.

There are 3,800 kids in ICE custody.

ICE activity has not noticeably tapered off yet here and in fact this week they seem to be focused on terrorizing kids at bus stops and schools.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call β€œsymbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

Here's the thing, Greg β€” free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

Walz: "I don't care if you are conservative are flying a Donald Trump flag, a libertarian 'Don't Treat on Me,' a Democratic Socialist -- this an inflection point. If we cannot all agree that the smearing of a citizen and besmirching everything they stood for -- someone has to be accountable."

This is a white supremacist paramilitary operation. Their goalβ€”their stated goal!β€”is to force America to submit to the President's racist domineering vision for the country.

The sooner everybody starts confronting it on the terms that they themselves have stated, the better.

ALL MN PROTESTERS

Absolutely nothing could be worse for our cause than violence and rioting. It is what ICE and Trump obviously want. Do not burn down our own city to protest invaders; they do not care; they will enjoy it. Do not do it. Do not let your fellow protesters do it.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

Everyone freezing on the East Coast or in the Midwest remember: Kyiv has the same weather, except that hundreds of thousands of people don't have electricity, heating or running water

Be the person who is horrified at ICE, not the person who is horrified that people are shocked by ICE

The kind of people who are horrified at what is happening here and find it deeply un-American are, maybe counterintuitively, the kind of people who are MORE likely than average to know and remember historic abuses. It is their determination to rise above them that gives them moral strength!

22.01.2026 14:10 β€” πŸ‘ 1187    πŸ” 74    πŸ’¬ 10    πŸ“Œ 7

People who say this are clearly speaking aspirationally about a shared American creed they hold dear. β€œHave you heard of the Trail of Tears?” is not a very helpful response, because they probably have and the priority right now is moral opposition to fascism and not fake-educating each other.

There’s still a taboo in the media about describing Trump’s cognitive state.

It’s rooted in the idea that the US President being insane sounds so preposterous that it must be an inaccurate slur.

But it’s the hard truth.

All of this is a result of Trump being an unstable narcissistic megalomaniac.
