Liberal leaning progressive. Make no mistake - the opposition is militant, arrogant, and celebrates cruelty. We're going to have to step-up our game.
No DMs pls - they're ignored.

being a good american doesn't mean you need to "love it" blindly. "patriotism" by the right-wing standard is a clear example of extreme brainwashing.

how much is putin paying trump to push for greenland?

Some are saying that when the orange buffoon dies, so will maga. Maga is just the newest iteration of the confederacy. Greedy racists and their willfully ignorant leeches will never go away, they'll slither about until the next opportunity to f* everything up presents itself.

putin won't stop until he's forced to. one must be a complete imbecile or willfully ignorant to believe otherwise. trump and his band of miscreants are the same way.
The best way to end the war sooner
Want peace in Ukraine?

Help Ukraine scale up the production of drones and missiles.

When Ukraine can properly destroy Russian oil refineries every single day, the war ends.

Force Putin to stop. Don't ask him

Just checked. Ava is still missing, and worse, appears to have left with an adult male.

Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes (D) isn’t new to the fight for democracy, but he argues we’re now fighting a different battle. The GOP is deadset on ending fair elections, and they’ve placed people inside the system to ensure its collapse.

appears "their job" is to shoot americans, and throw flashbangs into crowds of child.
And there it is, what the corrupt & stupid authoritarian tyrant Donald planned all along . . .

UNREAL!!! Trump Regime has been pushing for the widow of Renee Good to be prosecuted not the ICE agent who murdered her! This just caused six federal prosecutors in Minnesota to resign. These six people choose America over Fascism! www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/u...

Please call your reps and tell them NOT to fund this government
Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

As ICE continues to terrorize Minneapolis, now is a good time to revisit one of the earlier stops on the Trump administration’s deportation tour: Chicago.

In this episode, we explore how locals in the windy city found creative ways to fight back.

ICE and Border Patrol agents terrorized the city, and locals fought back.

would it be wrong if someone defended themselves against a reckless ice agent then said "f*n asshole"? just curious, there seems to be a double standard these days.

This is fascism, pure and simple.
Breaking NYT:

Federal investigators assigned to the killing of Renee Good are looking into her possible connections to activist groups.

It's in line with the admin's strategy of deflecting blame toward opponents they describe as domestic terrorists — without providing evidence.

trump is a fraud, a molester, a child rapist, and now a war criminal - peace prize? wtf is maga thinking?!
January 13, 2026 at 1:20 AM
we have to accept the fact that our federal government (supported by the oligarchs) is actively waging war against us. ten years of peaceful resistance - and this is what we've got to show for it.

So many people are so angry about this, and even as ICE becomes more violent and confrontational, even more and more regular people are joining into the effort to protect their neighbors. It’s inspiring.
Map shows reports of ICE activity in and around the Twin Cities on Sunday alone. Los Angeles and New York shown for comparison.

This particular resource may be less utilized in other cities, but it’s clear that Minnesotans are not afraid to continue documenting the actions of these thugs.

Ask yourself. If ICE is going door to door, what’s next?

Armed federal agents took a man away in handcuffs. A woman came out of the house and said the man was her husband. It also appears ICE used an administrative warrant, not a judicial warrant.

That matters….
