I hate the Orange Hemmorhoid! I love books, sports, politics that aren't insane, HISTORY, Hip-Hop, being a happily committed gay woman, and badass justice! Also, Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦💪🏼

ICE raids are escalating. Trump’s ICE is NOT detaining “dangerous criminals.” They are grabbing pregnant women, children, gardeners, home workers, street vendors, car wash workers, USA citizens. This must end #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

“Was it your brain?” should be the follow up question to every Trump statement.

Yes. I know about the second restraining order. However, as Governor Pritzker pointed out, as of 120 minutes ago…he was still planning to send them. At this stage of the game, we should be open to the very real possibility that he will blow off all court orders…and go in anyway.

Trump just ordered 400 members of the Texas National Guard to go to Illinois, Oregon…and who the f*ck knows where else.

This is a fierce ruling against Trump from a judge he appointed.
BREAKING: A federal judge has granted a restraining order blocking President Trump's call-up of the National Guard in Portland.

If Chicago was the shithole MAGA Republicans claim and the NRA existed for any reason other than to lick the boots of authoritarian regimes, we’d be watching the news out of Chicago like it was Mogadishu in the early days of October 1993. #blackhawkdown

I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

In order for the United States to become a party to the International Criminal Court and have our officials be subject to trial at The Hague, the US Senate would need to ratify the Rome statute by a two-thirds vote. Let’s start running on that.

They call your Social Security & Medicare 'Entitlements' so you don't call them something silly like 'Earned Benefits.'

Garcia: What we got was complete bullshit. We demanded the full Epstein files, and that’s not what was sent over. The White House cover-up clearly continues. What they sent us was 33,000 pages of documents that have already been in the public domain.

The near daily Zoom calls between blue state attorneys general:

Fascinating and encouraging.
"Twenty-three Democratic attorneys general now gather on near-daily Zoom calls at 8 AM Pacific, which means the East Coast officials are already on their third coffee. They divide responsibilities and share templates for lawsuits they’ve been drafting since last spring."
It’s Time for Americans to Start Talking About “Soft Secession”
Blue states are finally learning what red states have known all along: you don’t need federal permission to govern.

Most of the immigrants ICE arrested in California last month have never even been charged with a crime, much less convicted.

If Donald Trump says he’s only targeting the “worst of the worst,” why do his own numbers prove otherwise?
