"Stopping Trump is a short-term solution. The long-term solution-and it will be more difficult-is fixing the educational system that has created so many people ignorant enough to vote for Trump.”

Sorry the story is now White House Softens Tone On Teargassing Preschools.
Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

I like to see politicians worried for their jobs—because of the voters.

Let's make this a thing.

-Bovino will leave MN and may lose his job
-Noem will face a Senate hearing and possible impeachment
-Senate Dems will oppose unconditional extension of DHS funding

The pushback is working.

We must keep standing up and speaking out against Trump's regime.

You can’t just say “Abolish ICE”. You also have to say “Abolish ICE and throw every person working in the agency into federal prison for crimes against humanity”.

It is inconceivable to me that any Democrat would vote for a DHS funding bill that fails to include a mandate that requires these federal goons to take their masks off.

No more Secret Police in America!

The Minnesota Business Partnership, both a cosigner and organizer of the letter, turned off public comments on its LinkedIn post when the responses turned negative, calling the statement weak.
Letter from CEOs on immigration actions in Minnesota stirs strong public reactions
Some called the statement too timid, while others applaud the coalition of more than 60 CEOs for urging a peaceful resolution to the conflict between local and federal officials.

This is honestly chilling.For decades, Canada wasn’t just another trading partner. They were the largest one. Our closest ally. The neighbor we shared the longest undefended border with. The country that showed up with us, trusted us, and built prosperity with us.And now Mark Carney is saying the relationship is over.Let that sink in.This didn’t happen because of Canada.It didn’t happen because of trade realities or shared values drifting apart.It happened because Donald Trump treats allies like enemies and diplomacy like a reality show.Trump threatens everyone. Insults everyone. Strong-arms everyone.There is no strategy. No long-term thinking. No understanding that alliances are assets, not weaknesses.Just ego. Just grievance. Just Trump.He’s so obsessed with himself that he’s willing to burn down relationships that took generations to build. Relationships that kept costs lower, borders calmer, economies stronger, and democracies safer.You don’t “win” by alienating your closest ally.You don’t “lead” by blowing up trust.And you don’t make America stronger by isolating it.This is what reckless, narcissistic leadership looks like in real time.Not just chaos at home—but broken alliances abroad.And once trust is gone, it doesn’t magically come back.View all 1,068 comments

People often ask me why exactly the Democrats are like this and I wish I could answer.

It is a combination soup of corruption/stupidity/groupthink. It's not rational behavior, that much is clear.

I bet if Republican lawmakers started getting protestors outside their wife’s nail appointments we’d start to see some movement on Trump. These people are isolated and need their comfortable lives disturbed a little.

It is truly disappointing seeing how many people are responding to the current moment by appealing to some fictional version of the Democratic Party that clearly doesn’t exist. Have some self-respect.

Our electoral process is so fucked that “voting your conscience” has become a trigger for HATE. This is the society they wanted and the masses enable it.

BOTH PARTIES ARE CORRUPT. BOTH PARTIES GOT US HERE.

I will vote my conscience from now on. BRING ON THE HATE THEN.

A lot of people said he’d never win again.
A lot of people said Kamala “destroyed” him in the debate.
A lot of people said Project 2025 would never be implemented.
A lot of people said this country could never end up with a tyrant.
You can’t seriously be that naive.

American centrists & institutions move a bit quicker when white people are murdered in broad daylight & on camera.

Not so much when it comes to Black people, immigrants, Latinos, Muslims, & Palestinians.

If this is what it sadly takes to wake everyone up to the nightmare that's always existed...

I just saw a commercial on CNN for Fannie Mae with a fake AI Trump voice (it sounded like Trump would if he wasn’t mentally mashed potatoes) that looked like a campaign commercial.

Who is paying for that

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.
