ICE agents in Worcester, Massachusetts arrested a mother outside of her home with her newborn baby and 16 year old daughter.

The 16 year old stood in front of the ICE vehicle holding the baby.

She handed the baby to a neighbor & fled.

Police caught up to her, in a heartbreaking scene.⬇️

Trump took an oath to defend the Constitution. Now he wants to ignore it. From trampling due process to musing about a third term, his disregard for the rule of law should alarm every American.

We want to take a moment to talk about tariffs because honestly, we didn’t realize how bad it was getting until we started comparing notes with friends and family. Stores across the country are already raising prices, and some of the increases are steep.

Musk totally humiliated Trump during their joint Oval Office press conference. Musk brought along his 4-year-old son — making Trump look like the kid’s babysitter — disrespectfully wore a T-shirt and baseball cap, and even interrupted Trump.

It’s clear who’s really in control, and it ain’t Trump.

Paul Martin, the inspector general for the USAID, has been fired after resisting the administration. Just a day ago, his office released a report warning that staff reductions and spending freezes put hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars at risk of misuse and waste. This is the way.

Treasury Department officials admitted today that the agency “mistakenly” and “briefly” gave a member of Musk’s DOGE team the power to alter a sensitive federal payments database. The disclosure undercuts the Trump administration’s repeated claims that access was limited to a “read-only” basis.

I'm worried that the code on my website is wonky.

I am hiring five teenage forensic accountants who have absolutely no programming experience to audit the code.

While they do it a rich guy who invested in a few accounting firms will yell about how corrupt the code is.

It's the perfect plan.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
