This song has been ringing in my ears all day. It's part of my youth. It fits what we're going through today. The song came out in 1967. Have we learned nothing over the years?

DEAR DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS‼️

stop talking like there is any possibility of making ICE a better ICE. It’s not happening.

ICE needs to go. Period.

What are you saying? “Let’s make slave catchers nicer.” It’s moral nonsense.

Suggestion for Minneapolis - in honor of hometown son Prince who valued the power of love, wear #PurpleForPeace when you protest the ICE surge in the Metro area.

My plan was to use tonight to write about today's Supreme Court opinion involving standing in election cases. But I am honestly too tired. I promise I will get to it for Friday or this weekend. In the meantime, my only ask is to subscribe to Democracy Docket to stay informed. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Members of Congress should be openly stating right now that military action against Greenland will result in impeachment and removal of the President and the Vice President.

There is no legitimate reason for ICE to operate this way during immigration “enforcement actions,” especially in light of the recent history of documented abuses. Anonymity accelerates that kind of behavior. It tells the agents they aren’t accountable. joycevance.substack.com/p/should-ice...

Shouldn’t be too hard to compare lists
@housedemocrats.bsky.social I trust you are getting a list and comparing, and not just taking their word for it?

Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

Let’s talk culture. Let’s talk loyalty. Let’s talk values.

Nicki Minaj switched values, loyalties, & communities, linking arms with MAGA & Turning Point USA while abandoning the Black & queer fans who built her legacy.  Shame on her. #ByeGirl

THE AMERICAN WORKER IS ALL OF US. Black, white, Latino, Asian, Native, immigrant, union or not. Not the “working class” stereotype.

We built this country. We keep it running. Stop dividing. Start recognizing.

💥 Huge night in Florida.
Democrats overperformed everywhere.

Miami flipped blue with a nearly 90-point swing.
Palm Beach’s House race swung 18 left.
The Villages’ Senate race swung 22.

This is a warning shot for 2026.

For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.

If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

Jeffries says not to expect Democrats to pursue Hegseth impeachment over boat strikes
"Republicans will never allow articles of impeachment to be brought to the floor," he said.

This weekend, I hope you will consider shopping anywhere but Target, Amazon & Home Depot.

We must send a message about stopping #ICELawlessness to Home Depot that cooperates with #ICE as they abduct & brutalize their own customers!
