Trump’s now busy issuing a blizzard of endorsements on Truth Social of many candidates who are running unopposed or in R+30 or more districts so he can later claim that they only won because of him.

I've seen several popular movements in my lifetime and history now as someone who teaches comparative politics.

When people show up in the dead of winter, on a workday, when it is the most inconvenient because of cold, it shows how strongly they are motivated against the government.
Easily thousands roaring "ICE out!"

FBI leadership coverup of Renee Good killing.

A supervisor in FBI’s Minneapolis field office resigned "after bureau leadership in Washington pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into" ICE agent Jonathan Ross. "Such inquiries are a common investigative step in similar shootings."

The media needs to prioritize reporting the truth over spreading Trump’s propaganda

Journalism 101:

“If someone says it’s raining and another person says it’s dry, it’s not the journalist’s job to quote them both. It’s your job to look out the fucking window and find out which is true.”
The media needs to prioritize reporting the truth over spreading Trump's propaganda
The mainstream media forgot how to do its job and are complicit in Trump's propaganda machine.

This is the beginning of something very dark.
My God. On or about 1/20/26, Trump signed an Executive Order to bring back insane asylums. On 1/21/26, Katie Miller (wife of Stephen Miller) wrote that “They should be insane asylums, not shelters” in response to a Pirate Wires article criticizing a shelter for trans & gender confused people. 1/

@wardcarroll.bsky.social What do you think of countries dumping the 35? Think the SAAB is a better jet for Canada? Cost and maintenance etc.

They’re too comfortable with board seats and other high paying opportunities (not to mention six digit retirement). I had one three star friend label it as his “earning years.” They won’t rock any boats along the way. Don’t look to them to step up and be voices of leadership and reason.
That was not my intent, as I noted later. I think of @markhertling.bsky.social as part of a small and honorable group of former senior commanders who have spoken up - and I am disturbed that there aren't more like him. The silence from people who *could* speak out, as Mark as, is unsettling.
P/S - Hertling suggested you might have been baiting him, and he suggested there are many active officers fighting behind the scenes. That gives us pedestrians some hope. If that was your objective, touchè.

The world learned today that you absolutely have to bully this dumb old asshole as a collective. Better late than never for them, but we better get used to being aggressively humiliated for the next few years.

I’m so proud of Minnesota. I understand why some people belittle protests as not enough, but I really think this shit matters.

I saw a clip on Fox News and they had to admit thousands of people showed up. It’s not going to stop Trump, but it’s a signal to your neighbors that they’re not alone.

Let me be clear: I cannot vote for legislation that gives ICE even more funding to terrorize our communities.

Not after 2025 was the deadliest year on record to be in ICE custody in two decades.

Not after they killed a mom in cold blood with zero accountability.

Mike Johnson was covering up child rape a full year before Pam Bondi made it trendy.
The House Ethics Committee found that Matt Gaetz sex trafficked minors.

He raped minors.

He paid minors for sex.

And Mike Johnson kept the report sealed.

This was the man they wanted to be Attorney General.

…don’t you realize they’re covering for Trump?

Release the files.
