Homeland Security‘s social media gets more unhinged and master-race-y every day. Today they want us to believe that terrorizing immigrants is “the fight for western civilization.”

Over 200 men were sent by Kristi Noem-in violation of a court order-to the CECOT prison for terrorists

She claimed they were criminals. In reality, most had no criminal records, and many had valid claims for asylum

They were tortured. Beaten. Sexually abused. Even shot.

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias.

He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was ProPublica reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social.

Turns out the sweetheart deal that Trump's former Labor Secretary Alex Acosta gave Epstein back in 2008 was even worse than we thought. Epstein's emails show Acosta tanked an investigation that had Epstein dead to rights on money laundering, and other financial crimes.

Sen. Shaheen: I had a meeting with some constituents last Friday. One was a small business owner who had cancer. He said, 'If I didn't have that insurance through the ACA, I would not have gotten my cancer treated, and I would be dead by now.' That's what this fight is about.
