Siri got it correct…

ICE is stealing from the people they detain whether they are U.S. citizens, have legal status, or are undocumented... watches, jewelry, phones, money or anything they feel is of value.

Here's a look at which Iowa Republican bills survived the first legislative deadline and which ones luckily failed to advance. Spoiler alert: none of them make life more affordable for Iowans.

The President was in Georgia yesterday.

The Supreme Court told him “no.”
His response told us everything:
The Most Revealing Part of Trump’s Tariff Meltdown

I was thinking also about the issues with Grok, more the 1% are as bad or worse than the politicians they buy. Some regulations are needed, like transparencies, it will need approached with caution.

That’s it, there are positive benefits for people, but there is also so much room to exploit and harm people. We are almost too late to start regulating. Oddly, ChatGPT told me AI needed regulation.

My son is a pathologist and says AI is already transformative, sees earlier detection ability as significant benefit.

One of the few areas I lean towards AI is diagnostic, but in conjunction with physicians, not replacing.

WATCH: “Johnny, you blatantly lied.”

Rep. Johnny Garrett, running for Congress, RUNS 🏃🏻 from us + Tennessean reporter Vivian Jones to 🦆 Duck Q’s about his lie that undocumented immigrants commit 50% of crimes in TN

(Per the AG it’s 2%, 90% of those non-violent/traffic. Also we’d love details.)

NASHVILLE: “They used a permanent marker on his skin because they were keeping score.”😕

Senator @jeffyarbro.bsky.social lets loose after this horrific report about @TNHighwayPatrol & ICE blatantly racial profiling and terrorizing immigrants: nashvillebanner.com/2026/02/19/i...

Pete Buttigieg campaigns for Chris Pappas in New Hampshire Buttigieg made the rounds Thursday at the Puritan Backroom in support of the U.S. Senate campaign of U.S. Rep. Chris Pappas.

Great to be on the trail with my friend @chrispappasnh.bsky.social today.

As New Hampshire’s next Senator, he will relentlessly focus on making life more affordable, and stand up to end the chaos and corruption of this moment.

Donate to Alexis Goldstein for Maryland Alexis Goldstein is running for Congress in Maryland's 6th district because we deserve leaders who shows as much bravery as ordinary people are showing in defense of their neighbors.

Last week, I was fired in retaliation for confronting DOGE staff in 2025. Today, I launch my campaign for U.S. Congress in Maryland’s 6th district.

Marylanders show enormous bravery in defense of our communities. #MD06 deserves a Rep as brave as its residents.

Ossoff: "There are some folks who are doomscrolling in the fetal position. Every day there is a new outrage. It's easy I know to fear that maybe we could lose our republic. I think what John Lewis would tell us is it's up to us. We have the power to right the ship. Nobody is gonna do it for us."

We have to stop letting rich people tell us that the only metric to measure a country’s success is the stock market.

‘Professor Uthmeier’: Inside Florida attorney general’s $100k teaching job at UF The university was eager to hire the newly minted attorney general, but didn’t announce his teaching job until the Miami Herald and Tampa Bay Times began asking questions.

Florida's attorney general, who spends his time targeting companies for stuff like “radical LGBTQ+ activism,” is getting paid $100K a year as a Univ of Fla adjunct to teach a 2 hour/week law class.

His salary is 8X higher than what the median adjunct earns.

Trump officials have blocked Minnesota law enforcement from accessing materials to investigate the death of Alex Pretti.

They also refused to cooperate with Minnesota officials to investigate Renee Good’s death.

What don’t they want the public to know?

Savannah teacher killed in crash by man fleeing from ICE According to the Chatham County Police Department, Monday morning’s fatal crash was the result of a chase between Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and a suspect.

ICE killed a teacher in Georgia today when they chose to chase a man who posed no danger and had no criminal history.

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."
