Wait! So Trump lied about the East Wing not being touched—and now about the ballroom price tag too?

The cost suddenly ballooned to $300 million.

Almost missed my flight to yell at Ted Cruz who was holding a press conference next to the security line at the Houston airport. Almost every single TSA agent thanked me for calling him out on his BS lies. They know Rep's are responsible for the government shutdown

Stevie Nicks and her band performing “Freefalling” in tribute to her late, great friend Tom Petty will forever be one of the loveliest moments I’ve experienced at a concert, and I’ve been to a lot of great shows.

Muh heart. 🥲 #musicsky #witchsky

Venezuela is moving troops into position on the Caribbean coast and mobilizing what President Nicolás Maduro asserts is a millions-strong militia in a display of defiance against the biggest American military buildup in the Caribbean since the 1980s. www.wsj.com/world/americ...

NO KINGS IN AMERICA! 🚫👑

Tomorrow millions of Americans will take to the streets to remind this administration of that fact.

Breaking on MSNBC: Two top criminal lawyers in the Eastern District of Virginia have been fired: Elizabeth Yusi, the criminal chief, and her deputy Kristin Bird. Both had been involved with Letitia James case and were skeptical of it.

Keep in mind that ICE now has a budget larger than every military in the world except the US and Chinese militaries.

Things are going to get much worse. I'm not saying this to create fear, it's fact.

The administration is at war with Americans.

This should be required reading in every historical methods and social studies classroom. Something very important is being lost. 🗃️🗺️

I continue to think this is one of the most important and underappreciated media dynamics.

The "Don’t tread on me” crowd can’t see the boots are beginning to tread.

You should drive up to Canada and catch a flight from there.

This is truly frightening.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Friends and comrades made a crowdfunding page for my family.

It’s really hard to post this. I know that there are a lot of other important issues asking for money but things have gotten to the point where we need to open ourselves up to your support.

Thank you for your consideration.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

South Shore Residents Return To Ransacked Apartments After ICE Raid: 'It Looks Like Hell' A "now renting" sign outside touts granite countertops. Inside, residents are trying to make sense of the raid that made their already neglected building even worse.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

Despite a powerful economy, Texas is still stuck at a $7.25 minimum wage; here's why Despite having the second-largest economy in the country, Texas is one of the states that remain stuck at a minimum wage of $7.25.

Every time I see Greg Abbott brag about the strength of Texas' economy, new corporations moving to our state, how productive we are, I wonder why our minimum wage remains at $7.25. www.statesman.com/story/busine...

I personally think "The Abyss" is the best of all the rise of Hitler documentaries. The similarities with Trump are evident
