The news is just awful. I’m sending virtual love and hugs to all those affected by all the horseshittery happening. And also posting this pic of my adorable retired racing greyhound in his frog jammies. Because we love frogs. 🐸 (He’d love you to read the alt text on his pic, too.)

I hate to burst everyone's bubble but if you think that CBS News losing ratings or prestige matters to David Ellison, you're mistaken. Murdoch ran the NY Post for 45 years without turning a profit. They want these media companies to pump propaganda, not to get ratings or make money.

A US early-warning radar of one sort or another has been on Greenland for nearly 70 years—without the need for US sovereignty. Greenland is also covered by Article Five & US could protect it v Russia or China. Conflating Greenland's military importance with the issue of US ownership is dishonest.

“One of the bombs rolled under our truck, and within seconds our truck lifted up off the ground, and the airbags deployed, the car doors locked themselves, and the car began to fill with the powerful tear gas. We fought hard to get the doors open and get all of the kids out. Bystanders had to help.”

ICE must be abolished. It has become a lawless, rogue agency. Federal law enforcement agencies must follow the law, if they're going to have any credibility enforcing it.

We are demanding justice for Renee Good and the prosecution of ICE agent Jonathan Ross for her murder.

Today, Donald Trump--the president of the United States and a man with a history of election subversion--said: "We shouldn’t even have an election" in 2026.

While legacy media has largely ignored this story, Democracy Docket has covered it from multiple angles. Support its work. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Negative double digits across the board.

Add in Epstein Files, and he's -30 on that.

Trump is weak, MAGA's policies are unpopular, and he has NEVER HAD SUPPORT OF 50% of the country.

This should shame every institution that has bent the knee and continues the bend the knee to this fascist regime.
Trump Net-Approval On:

Immigration: -23%
Venezuela: -24%
Foreign Policy: -24%
Economy: -25%

Bondi: "What happened in Minnesota -- we had 6 prosecutors who suddenly decided they didn't want to support the men and women in ICE. One of them was busy doing a photo shoot with the New York Times while ICE was out there risking their lives ... breaking news tonight: I fired them all."

I implore my fellow Dems not to overthink this. You can just say - I’m against the government shooting people in the face for no good reason. This is not hard. Same with the ludicrous invasion of Greenland. Democrats are anti-invasion of Greenland bc it’s the dumbest thing ever. Be ruthlessly blunt.
New CNN polling:

Most Americans see an immigration officer’s fatal shooting of Renee Good as an inappropriate use of force. Roughly half view it as a sign of broader issues with the way ICE is operating, w/under 1/3 saying that ICE operations have made cities safer.

Completely unserious people. What a damn weirdo to think he can just legislate a whole ass other country to become a US state.
Rep. Randy Fine on his bill to make Greenland the 51st state: "We need to make sure we assert our dominance over the Western Hemisphere ... the last thing we need is Greenland to become another Venezuela where we have huge problems we have to deal with in the future."

Pretty willd how the DOJ just straight up stopped releasing the Epstein files even though they're legally obligated to do so.

AOC: Vance believes fundamentally that what happened to Renee Good is acceptable and what should be ok in America every day and so as far as what a person like that believes, you have to start right there with the person that you're dealing with

"She made him do it" strikes again. He's not concerned the murder will anger us; he's insisting that saying it was murder and the officer a murderer will anger them and then our fault if they lash out. "She made him do it" is the burdening of Democrats and the left for right-wing/Republican acts.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."
