“A multi-agency operation targeting child sex predators led to the arrest of eight individuals over the last two weeks,” the department said in a release published on Friday. The release lists the names of 38-year-old Tom Artiom Alexandrovich and seven others.
Paul’s right, it’s unreal how little traction this story has gotten.

Other night on MSNBC Sean Patrick Maloney was kinda saying it was bad politics for Dems to take on Trump over Kilmar Abrego Garcia
He worked in the Clinton White House. In general the Bill Clinton people really don’t understand the moment

New polling just out from the New York Times is even worse for Trump on this issue. By a -21% margin, Americans disapprove of how Trump has handled the case of Mr. Abrego Garcia.

This is where we are headed. If you don’t believe me, ask what basis the government had to send me and my family to a prison camp in Arkansas. We “looked like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.”

Sure Trump is crashing the public market, and children are dying of preventable diseases because Trump put a confidence man in charge of our government health agencies! The fury, I feel right now cannot be properly expressed.

The same Republicans who blocked funding for Veterans Suicide Prevention, Health Benefits, Wounded Veterans Job Security, Veterans Retraining, Disabled Veterans Home Accessibility, and the Veterans Business Center are the same Republicans who found $113 MILLION for Trump's birthday parade.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.
I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.
But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
