Everyone in the country remembers who was in the White House when insurrectionists stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021 to keep Donald Trump in power.

Except this man. He is simply too stupid.

These are not ICE offices. They are not even immigration detention centers.

We donโ€™t have that many immigrants to detain.

The size of the facilities suggest DHS plans to detain citizens. Thereโ€™s simply no other explanation and we should really start framing it that way.

Trump Allies Near โ€˜Total Victoryโ€™ in Wiping Out U.S. Climate Regulation

A reminder that, while some of the damage that Trump & GOP are doing might seems temporary, the damage they're doing to the planet is permanent:

Families are struggling to pay rent, buy groceries, and afford health care.

But House Republicans aren't voting on a single bill this week to fix their affordability crisis.ย

Top musician cancels Trump-Kennedy Center debut after MN carnage The decision comes after Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old VA nurse was shot dead by federal agents during anti-immigration protests in Minneapolis on Saturday.

"The Kennedy Center's name change was poorly received by many members of the Kennedy Family... President John F. Kennedy's niece Kerry Kennedy,... pledged to take a 'pickax' to the letters forming Trump's name on the building after he leaves office."

Russia suffers more losses in Ukraine than any country since WWII Russia sustained 1.2 million casualties almost four years into its all-out war in Ukraine, suffering more losses than any major power in any war since World War II, according to a CSIS report.

"For comparison, US battlefield casualty and fatality numbers are "significantly lower," according to the report, with the United States "suffering 54,487 battle deaths during the Korean War (and) 47,434 deaths during the Vietnam War.""

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

The leaders of Albania & Azerbaijan were filmed mocking US Trump for claiming he ended a war between the 2 countries, even though they have never fought each other.

The world thinks that the occupant is a joke.
Heโ€™s destroying our country. Congress must act.

Greenland invasion could spark US constitutional crisis, experts say A US military action against Denmarkโ€™s arctic territory would be a violation of US law, with potentially massive political consequences.

"The US military is bound to obey lawful orders and trained to refuse unlawful orders. Invading Greenland without congressional authorisation, against a NATO ally, and in violation of treaty obligations would raise serious legality concerns."

We must stress: The only violence is coming from CBP/ICE. They are rioting in the face of sustained nonviolent protests by thousands of Americans across the country.

They are todayโ€™s Alabama State Troopers at the Selma bridge. They are Bull Connorโ€™s police with firehoses in Birmingham.
