Ready in first grade! Let’s do this life!

I debated 20 far-far-far-right conservatives (racists? fascists?) on Jubilee's 'Surrounded.'

Here are some of the highlights of them unable to answer my basic questions or rebut the simplest of points. Not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Here's the full 'debate': www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S-W...

Look folks, I am only going to utter these words one time ever and only in response to this one particular tweet from 2019: Tulsi is right

YouTube video by MSNBC Bad actors mimic masked ICE agents; Community outraged over snatchings by unidentified agents

Most of these "Federal Agents" are not federal agents. They are contractors/mercenaries hired by the Fascist Trump regime.

I just wrote to @governor.ca.gov @schiff.senate.gov and @padilla.senate.gov about the lawlessness of #ICE in California.

We cannot have masked mercenaries terrorizing our neighbors!

ICE at Home Depot on Sunset this morning.

SIDEBAR: me to a friend from East LA, “At some point these masked, anonymous ‘ICE agents’ are going to roll up on the wrong people and get capped.”

She said she was told, “ICE is avoiding the gang areas for their own safety.”

Talk about a MAGA hoodwink.

Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Spent time at the Whitney Museum yesterday with Michelle.

California Sen. Alex Padilla was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference and handcuffed.

"I am Senator Alex Padilla. I have questions for the secretary."

If you haven’t heard of Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove… you have now.

When she stepped out from the back without missing a beat, I knew it was on🔥

On June 10 an immigration raid at a meat production plant in Omaha, Nebraska was the "largest worksite enforcement operation" in the state, Homeland Security Department said.

U.S. Congressman Don Bacon told local media 75-80 people were detained.

Hard working people are not criminals.

Rep. McIver was conducting oversight. That’s her duty as a Member of Congress.

This isn’t justice—it’s retaliation.

A political stunt meant to silence anyone who dares to hold power accountable.

They may think they can scare us into silence. They’re dead wrong.

I'm Suing DOGE The First Amendment Coalition (FAC) and MSW Media have filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. DOGE Service for its failure to respond to FOIA requests

BREAKING: While major news outlets and law firms fall all over themselves to bend the knee to Trump and Musk, I am standing up and suing DOGE for transparency. www.muellershewrote.com/p/im-suing-d...

🚨 WOW: Former National Security Advisor Susan Rice says the Russians "undoubtedly" have all of the information shared on the Trump administration's Signal texts.

Holy shit. This happened last night at the townhall of MAGA Congresswoman Harriet Wageman, who defeated Liz Cheney in deep red Wyoming, where Trump won with over 45%, the biggest margin in the nation.

Give 'em hell.
