This video is the perfect encapsulation of the illegal, thuggish, unprovoked, violent conduct of ICE. Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social, I trust that you and the House Homeland Security Committee will have interest in this.

The justices gave Trump a loaded weapon. Of course, he’s using it.
Trump’s latest attack on the Federal Reserve is the Supreme Court's fault

Please join me in praying for my city's only synagogue, Congregation Beth Israel, which was set on fire in the early morning hours, yesterday.
Nobody was hurt and a suspect has been caught and charged with arson, but not much is public. Beth Israel is part of JXN's long tradition of racial justice.

Some 600 immigrant kids were sent to federal custody by ICE in 2025.

A 17-year-old was detained at a traffic stop because officers couldn’t make contact with his dad, who is deaf.

Another kid ended up in a shelter after making a wrong turn.

(Published Nov. 2025)
ICE Sent 600 Immigrant Kids to Detention in Federal Shelters This Year. It’s a New Record.
Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border. New data suggests separations are happening all over the count...

Then, to make matters even worse, later in the broadcast the @pbsnews.org NewsHour had David F'ing Brooks blathering about how there was a study years ago of Princeton and Dartmouth "kids" arguing over which football team got more penalties...and analogizing that to the murder in Minneapolis. WTF?

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

watching my senior year math teacher repost dozens and dozens of obviously fake AI-generated 'news' stories about Packers players and coming to the conclusion that maybe it wasn't entirely my fault that I didn't do well at calculus.

Whip them with the ropes of soft power.

Throw fits. Make stinks. Obstruct everything possible. Make yourself very heavy. Hold endless hearings.

Look, if a toddler and a chihuahua wield zero hard power levers but can ruin anything anywhere once they put their mind to it, lawmakers can try, too.
I love you all and am holding your hand as I say this:

Dems wield zero hard power levers
it's kind of crazy that there's even any question that democrats are going to do anything about this

Donald Trump’s unconstitutional military action in Venezuela is putting our troops in harm's way with no long-term strategy.

The American people deserve a President focused on making their lives more affordable.

Imagine believing, and getting mad about, Somali daycare centers having contributed $35 million to the Democrats - a nonsensical, demonstrable, obvious lie.

And yet some *billionaires* believed it and then spread the lie over on Twitter.

Some of the richest people are some of the dumbest.

Imagine interviewing a victim of torture and independently confirming the details of his torture and then being told you can’t broadcast it because the people who ordered the torture wouldn’t give their side of the story.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.
