I swear maybe once a decade in public, and this is the moment. This fucking racist and all the gibbering racists nodding along behind him are the ruination of our country. Our fucking job for the next fucking year is to fucking destroy them in the next election. Fuck them.

Next time you cash your SS or disability check, thank an undocumented immigrant. They paid $25B into SS last year, keeping it afloat. Deport them all? The fund loses $13B a year. They pay in, take nothing out, and help keep costs down.

Now go hug an undocumented immigrant. Thank you.

People experiencing miscarriages in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves.

We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position.

Giving the president the pardon power was a mistake. The most corrupt president in American history is conducting a jailbreak for his fellow criminals.

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

The U.S. is the only democracy in the world with:

- Lifetime terms for high court judges
- An electoral college for choosing an executive
- A legislative chamber where legislative minorities routinely and permanently thwart legislative majorities
- 75% requirements for constitutional amendments

Pete Hegseth says he’s going to court-martial me for saying the same exact thing he said 9 years ago. What changed for Pete? Well to start, he spends all day thinking about how he can suck up to Trump. When Trump says jump, he says how high.

Twin Cities leaders rally behind Somalis amid reports feds may target community City leaders from Minneapolis and St. Paul stood firmly with the Twin Cities Somali community Tuesday following reports that the Trump administration plans to primarily target hundreds of undocumented Somali immigrants.

The good news:

1) Aftyn Behn moved a ruby red district 12 points more blue.

2) She can and should run again in the midterm election.

3) With real investment and good candidates, every R+ 7 or less seat is now in play.

The bad news:

Rural white voters are still the absolute worst.

While millions of families struggle to put food on the table Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos & Mark Zuckerberg own more wealth than the bottom HALF of Americans.

That’s what oligarchy is about. That’s what a rigged economy is about.

Is it any wonder that people in this country are angry?

ALL IMLS grants restored in every state & territory.

"The reinstatement of all IMLS grants means that libraries across the country will be able to resume vital services for learning, imagination, and economic opportunity. We are breathing a sigh of relief, but the fight is not over." ALA President Sam Helmick. Show up for our libraries, American Library Association.

There was a 13 point swing last night in TN-07.

If we see a 13 point swing in South Carolina in Nov 2026 Lindsey Graham will be retired and I will be the first ever pediatrician Senator.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

Watchdog finds Hegseth risked endangering troops by sharing of sensitive war plans on Signal, sources say | CNN Politics Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth risked compromising sensitive military information, which could have endangered American troops and mission objectives, when he used Signal in March of this year to s...

Pete Hegseth is the least qualified Secretary of Defense in American history. He is a national embarrassment who is putting the safety of our servicemembers at risk. He should be fired immediately.

Brazil’s former Dictator Bolsonaro will begin serving his 27 year prison sentence for plotting a coup in his country.

If only Merrick Garland had gotten the job done when we had the chance and sent the orange felon and his insurrectionists to jail where they belong. Scumbag.

Either extremely confused -- or lying to the American people.

Twin Cities ICE Watch / Migra Watch - Wednesday, Dec 3, 2025 at 6pm CT The Twin Cities is currently under federal occupation. Join States at the Core and Protect RP to learn important lessons from direct experiences on the ground in the neighborhoods in Chicago that most stood up to an even more intense Federal invasion from "Operation Midway Blitz" This training will share important skills for documenting ICE activity and supporting neighbors in your community. ICE Watch is a key strategy being used by groups across the country to protect their communities against aggressive activity by ICE agents. Practicing ICE Watch protects our neighborhoods from immigration enforcement by ensuring our community members know their rights, have a plan, and know how to act in the event of targeting by ICE. In addition to covering the basics of ICE Watch, we will discuss new analysis on ICE operations and safety guidance.

You don’t fight drug trafficking by freeing the man who flooded our streets with cocaine.

This pardon is an insult to law enforcement and a gift to the cartels.

GEORGE WILL: “.. The killing of the survivors by this moral slum of an administration should nauseate Americans. A nation incapable of shame is dangerous, not least to itself.”

Imagine what it does to morale in the military to see the defense secretary hang an admiral out to dry to avoid responsibility for war crimes.

AI poses unprecedented threats. Congress must act now | Bernie Sanders Despite the speed at which it is progressing, AI is getting far too little discussion in Congress, the media and within the general population. That has got to change

If AI eliminates millions of jobs, how will people survive?

Will AI destroy democracy with a massive invasion of our privacy?

Could a superintelligent AI replace humans in controlling the planet?

We must act NOW. AI must benefit all of us, not just billionaire investors.

A private equity fraudster was found guilty for his role in a scheme to defraud 10,000 investors, including small business owners, farmers, and Americans living paycheck to paycheck.

Trump just let him out of prison.

Pete Hegseth needs to resign or be fired. Now. He’s a walking, talking national security embarrassment.

The disastrous and illegal Venezuela strikes - and his refusal to accept responsibility - should be the last straw.

NEW data I've received: Just 5% of people detained by ICE since October 1 have had violent criminal convictions, 3/4 had no criminal convictions at all. Most "criminals" had immigration, traffic, and vice offenses. Not the "worst of the worst"...

Mark Kelly is not going to be silenced by the sick buffonery of Trump and Hegseth, two deeply unserious people. They picked a fight with the wrong guy.

Radar revelation stokes fears Caribbean could be drawn into US-Venezuela crisis Trinidad PM rejects claims installation is in support of US campaign but opposition says ‘they have sold soul of nation’

The U.S. is installing radar and deploying Marines in Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela's neighbor. Trinidad's prime minister initially lied about it. The Trump regime is manufacturing a war to steal Venezuela's oil.

This is what happens when you have the least qualified Secretary of Defense in our country’s history.

A tweet from the account “The Yeti of Kananaskis” (@littleskinnyeti) reads: “If you knew that you were expected to just accept repeated infections of a novel virus forever, you would reasonably want to know everything you could about that virus, and if you learned all you could about Covid, you’d never be ok with just infecting yourself repeatedly forever.” The post shows the timestamp “4:13 AM · Dec 1, 2025” and “6,637 Views.” The profile image is a circular photo of a mountainous outdoor landscape.

COVID is a systemic disease that can harm the brain, heart, immune system and more.

Every reinfection increases the risk of Long COVID, chronic illness, disability and even death.

If people understood the real danger, they’d take prevention seriously instead of accepting repeated infections.
