It’s already haunting, extremely haunting! We CANNOT normalize this!
Every such incident in America is unforgivable!

Laura Rodriguez, on Twitter: A federal agent points a weapon at a woman who was recording them. Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area.

I fear if things don’t change right now, this image is going to come back to haunt us

By all means, indict Jack Smith on bullshit allegations and give him the trial that SCOTUS denied him.

Poke the bear, Donnie. See what happens.

He did not.

CHATTANOOGA: several hundred @utchattanooga.bsky.social Students are marching to protest the removal of DEI and disbanding of several centers, as regressive new Republican laws take hold

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

I’m not a fan of most country music but I could like this guy especially if he collaborated with Bad Bunny. MAGA would melt like the Wicked Witch!

MAGA is big mad at Zach Bryan for not being a fan of fascism.

They’re mad at Bad Bunny because they don’t know where Puerto Rico is.

Now I really want Bunny to invite Zach to perform with him at the Super Bowl.

Please let us have competent, intelligent people in this administration! We pay these assholes!

White House looks for a loophole in the law ensuring federal workers get paid after a shutdown The memo suggests furloughed workers are not entitled to back pay, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed.

A draft White House memo argues that furloughed federal workers are not entitled to back pay after the government shutdown lifts, the White House tells NBC News.

The memo comes despite the Office of Personnel Management's own September guidance.

Trump Wants the Nobel Prize. Here’s Who Will Actually Win It. Expert insights from Oslo reveal the real contenders

Trump’s campaigning hard for the Nobel Peace Prize, claiming he’s solved wars the world didn’t know existed.

But here in Oslo, where I attended an expert briefing, the reality is very different. Who will actually win Friday?

“…reporting the truth has become deadly work.” What profound and true words! The courageous reporters and journalists who put their lives on the line to bring facts to the world in these extremely fraught and threatening times are genuine heroes.

You literally cannot make this 💩 up! Trump will go down in history as the most stupid and corrupt of any person elected as a President, at home or abroad. Future historians will laugh at how dumb American voters were to allow an obvious uneducated conman and absurd loser in the White House.

New on MSNBC: Trump's new acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan has recruited prosecutors from outside her office to take James Comey to trial, after being unable to find any federal prosecutors in her own office willing to pursue the charges, according to two people familiar with the selections.

Republicans post fake image of Oregon protest – using photos of South America A federal judge had blocked Trump’s request to deploy California national guard to Portland

What's happening in Chicago is not normal.

The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak up.

There are NO GOOD REPUBLICANS!!!

Stop grading Republicans on a curve.

There are no Republican heroes in the fight for democracy.

Staying grounded in the truth is essential — our democracy depends on it.

Republicans are TERRORIST!!

The kingpin of evil

Don't look now, but Pam Bondi is refusing to answer Lindsey Graham's question about how many "illegals" live in Chicago.

Instead, she filibustered about how many drug traffickers were caught there, most based on investigations started under Biden.

Here’s a full summary of the hearing:

Senate: you’re doing all the things you said you would NOT do during your confirmation hearing!

Pam Bondi: yup

Senate: ok

You’re all caught up.

Can anyone explain what Grassley is talking about, ‘Arctic Frost’?
Or is it just his senility?

Rep. Chuck Grassley tells Bondi "Arctic Frost" (whatever that is) was "worse than Watergate"

She doesn’t even attempt to hide her treachery

NOTABLE -- Pam Bondi refuses to answer direct questions about if the FBI has incriminating photos of Trump with half-naked young women, but instead deflects from them by attacking Sen. Whitehouse

The guy who literally incited an insurrection is now threatening to use the Insurrection Act to torment Americans who do not support him.

(…because he literally incited an insurrection)
