Yup 💯
They are probably nervous and trying to figure it all out. Hateful admin and inept Dems.

They are very aware of what is happening. Awful for them to see and experience at young ages.
Oh gosh. Ice took away two teenage boys 15 and 16 in Minneapolis. Tell you g/c to be super careful.

I’m sorry for all of us who are seeing this close to home. It’s chilling. These immigrants come here for a better life and this is what they get. It’s the children left behind that upsets me so. Everyone of color afraid to leave their homes. 😞
I'm so sorry, Mac. They are here in my state as well. They've been to my town a few times and grabbed people who have lived and worked here for years. They are a bunch of lawless thugs

👍🏻👍🏻
I know. Report back when you can. Let me know your family is okay. ♥️

Thanks. I hate this so much.
Geez just be safe. 🙏
January 21, 2026 at 9:54 PM
They will be….Ice is at businesses not near her home.
Oh no. I hope she and her family remain safe.🙏

They are at our Home Depot, waiting at gas stations, outside schools…Its unbelievable. A lot of schools went on lockdown.
Oh no are they near your area?

Next town over. My daughter lives in So Portland.
Oh no are they near your area?

You may give me too much credit ! 😉 I’m glad I cheered you up regardless. The news changes so fast my head spins. Now Ice is right next door in Portland and So Portland Me….. stalking and arresting. It’s so upsetting. Mother of 4 drops her youngest off at school then gets grabbed. F those thugs. 😡
It is so very sad. And I thought Mary Oliver would cheer us, the wonder of a new day. And now here I am cheered by you. I have the universe in the palm of my hand.🤗🩷

Hi Ann! One of my favorite lines from Mary Oliver. Hope you've had a good day. I'm catching up. Watched the Buffoon embarrass this country again on a world stage. I can't take it! 😵‍💫
Mary Oliver's line "it is a serious thing / just to be alive / on this fresh morning / in this broken world" from her poem "Invitation."
I read this in a book about our changing planet by Kate Marvel, Scientist. She writes about science using emotion-wonder, fear... A whole person mind, heart 💜♥️

This is where we are at. For what? For nothing. For stupidity. For ego. For an old, demented malignant narcissist who expects the world to jump at his every whim. Well, when you follow international news you can see that the world has pretty much had enough of his bullshit.

Been there, done that! 🤪
Ha, ha, ha. Hear that. Or my granddaughters dance recitals.😴

Complete moron. Someone check his credentials etc. I can’t believe he passed the bar.
They're investigating the victim's wife, the victim's friends, the mayor and the governor too, but no, they're not even going to glance in the direction of the murderer.
BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good?

BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

Ignorance of Springsteen's politics aside, I'd certainly love to hear Gabe expound on his understanding of Christianity as a pro-ICE faith.
Gabe here just woke up from a 30-year coma

I have all I can do to make it through my grandsons baseball games….too slow for me….
😃I feel that way about baseball. Overpaid and underperforming.

This is so wrong…..
What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.

My law firm is currently litigation 81 voting and election cases in 40 states. This includes 11 redistricting lawsuits. It also includes 26 cases where we are litigating against the DOJ.

Elias Law Group only has 60 lawyers. Big Law firms have 1,000-2,000 lawyers. Where are they in this fight?

Yes…..
Let's talk about the midterms.

ICE is terrorizing and punishing blue states and cities to suppress your votes using fear from ICE- yes it's already started.

Blue states need to wake up and have a plan to deploy the National Guard to protect polling stations & voters from the federal government!

The EU is reportedly preparing to hit the US with a hefty set of tariffs worth nearly $108 billion after Trump’s threats toward Greenland. The bloc is also considering restricting US companies from its market in response, according to the Financial Times.

I wish I liked it…. I’ve tried. I like watching Celtics basketball….. that’s it for me and professional sports.
Houston came back like on fire. I am a football fan. My family was all sports, all the time. So was my son. But, I stink this season.😣

Given the open racism and rampant racial profiling by ICE, maybe this will be the first MLK Day in recent history where Republicans do *not* trot out the Only MLK Quote They Know
