ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.
Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Casar: You can quickly explain Doge with just two numbers.
First: $8 million a day. That’s how much Elon Musk collects in federal government contracts.
Second: $65 a day. That’s how much the average senior—someone who has worked their entire life—gets from Social Security.…
