Break out FEMA and the Coast Guard and fund them. The way that Noem runs the DHS, she'll suck them dry.

πŸ‘ Yes! Dems need to keep shouting this out!!!! It’s a perfect response to β€˜reporters’ when asked about DHS/ CBP bundles with FEMA, etc! Here’s your answer to continued funding of agencies we NEED! And, as someone else pointed out, noem isn’t using the fema money for the people, anyway (see TN!)

Thank you! πŸ‘Œ
Or fund fema, etc, with money from β€˜tariffs’!
Doesn’t trump say there are MILLIONS?!
Just grab it from the β€˜tariff shelf’!
Orrrr…Use some money from trump’s ballroom, the arch he wants, golf courses he wants spiffed up? Venezuelan oil? Sheesh, it sounds like there’s a LOT of extra $$!

It's staggering how this political eunuch has not just done nothing at all as Speaker of the House, but has actually worked to prevent his colleagues from doing anything at all as well.

For all the right's fetishization of "originalism," this is a development that would've made the founders weep

Once again they are trying to change the narrative. It is time to believe your eyes and ears, not their propaganda.

Local and State Police Can Investigate Federal Agents, But Rarely Do It doesn’t happen often, but local law enforcement can arrest and charge federal agents. Legal experts say there’s a moral obligation to at least try to hold federal immigration officers accountable w...

Local police did not open investigations into six of the 12 shootings by on-duty federal agents that have led to the deaths or injuries of citizens and immigrants since September, a ProPublica analysis found.

Every day for 10 years these MFers have been telling us how surprised they are about the latest reprehensible thing Trump did that day. They each own it all because they all enable it and cheer it on.

A photo shows a snowboarder in motion on a snowy slope, wearing a helmet and goggles, angled downhill mid-turn. Over the image is a large white social media post card attributed to Bernie Sanders. The text states that Trump called American Olympian Hunter Hess a β€œreal loser” for criticizing conditions in the country, and responds by saying the United States is not a monarchy, no one is required to bow to the president, and that Hess is not a loser but a proud American. The Bernie campaign logo appears near the bottom of the image.

Just ignore them.
There is no imperative to comply with an illegitimate request by an illegitimate government.
If nothing else, hold it up in courts - forever if possible.
DO NOT send the money back.

Segregation Academies Still Operate Across the South. One Town Grapples With Its Divided Schools. Seventy years after Brown v. Board, Black and white residents, in Camden, Alabama, say they would like to see their children schooled together. But after so long apart, they aren’t sure how to make it...

After the Brown v. Board decision, white people across the South opened hundreds of private schools.

70+ years later, most of the ones still open in Alabama’s Black Belt remain overwhelmingly white.

In this town, one school keeps kids divided.

Sometimes fiction tells truths that facts cannot. It was true of Steinbeck's THE GRAPES OF WRATH, and it's true of Larwence Wright's t heartfelt novel of the days leading up to the Hamas attack on Israel in 2023. THE HUMAN SCALE is suspenseful, hard to put down, even harder to forget.

Authoritarian regimes make you feel like shit because they will never admit they’re losing.

But Trump is losing β€” and it’s because of the organizing work you’re doing.

Bannon knows too much about Trump and Epstein, so Blanche is taking very good care of him to keep him quiet just like with Maxwell. Blanche is the lynchpin- he has assumed full authority given to him by Trump to protect the worst of the worst.

MAGA is never going to beat mainstream culture when it comes to music, so they should start counter-programming with things that play to their strengths.

A webinar about reducing the amount of child support you have to pay,, something like that.

Authoritarian governments always go after universities first, b/c free inquiry produces critics. Canceling Harvard’s military education programs and dressing it up as β€œbuilding lethality” is about keeping future officers away from independent centers of thought that might question Trump’s power.

That is correct. Since Republicans pre-funded ICE with a massive slush fund, they have given Dems no other choice but to leverage the rest of the DHS budget to get badly needed changes that a big majority of Americans want and will never get unless they take a stand now.

The lyrics to most of Kid Rock's songs trigger the requirement to report exposure to his son.

Screenshot of an X.com post by Molly Jong-Fast (@MollyJongFast) reporting that documents from the Epstein files show Lutnick and Epstein signed agreements in 2012 on behalf of limited liability companies to acquire stakes in an advertising technology company called Adfin, with their signatures appearing on adjacent pages and nine total shareholders listed.

Howard Lutnick was Epstein’s business partner and he lied about it. I wonder why?

Less than 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump's 1st year back in office had violent criminal records, document shows The official DHS statistics, which had not been previously reported, provide the most detailed look yet into who ICE has arrested during the Trump administration's crackdown.

This is obviously not targeted enforcement. And we still don’t know how many children they’ve taken.
