I marched to end the Vietnam war, marched for women's right, civil rights, LGBTQ++ rights, to end the silence about AIDS, to save the planet. I am tired but will not stop marching as long as I have breath.

The new leader of the free world!
This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.
A YouTube link for those looking for it. No words.

Bessent says it would be 'very unwise' for Europe to retaliate over Trump threats on Greenland.
The schoolyard bully says it would be very unwise to tell the teacher. The abusive spouse says it would be unwise very unwise to call the police. The rapist says it would be very unwise to fight back.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

Let's not forget the other ways this administration and SCOTUS are killing people. 💔

So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away.

Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

The statute of limitations for violations of federal law is 5 years.

Your photographs, videos, and livestreams can be used as evidence in future cases.

So while this Administration may not hold anyone accountable, a future Administration will.

Renee Good had a pulse when EMS arrived. I’m not sure it would have made a difference if ICE had let that civilian physician render aid before EMS arrived, but now we will never know. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

If the governor activates the national guard to protect his state from a gang of violent thugs, we will see what happens when cosplaying terrorists who enjoy brutalizing mothers and children come up against professional soldiers, sworn to protect Americans. I wonder how that will go for them?

70% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to govt data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As ICE terrorizes cities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of Trump's major donors are private prison corporations.
