Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Hundreds of millions. Wow, that's a lot. That's more than have died in every single war combined in the entire world since 1900.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Because of course she takes credit for the good work of others.
This came from the 2021 infrastructure bill signed by Biden. Mace voted against it.

Assuming every boat Trump and Hegseth blew up contained the amount of drugs they claim, Hernandez was responsible for bringing more drugs into the US than every one of them had combined. By far. And yet, Trump murders 80+ people and counting while pardoning the narco kingpin.

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

As a child, I used to count the cows along the highways of NE Iowa and SW Wisconsin on the roads to my grandparents. After Reagan created the first farm crisis, there were almost none: the cows left locked up in corporate farms. Rinse, repeat. Why does ANYONE believe the GOP is good for farmers?

According to the email from Mark Epstein to his brother Jeff,
Putin has a picture of TACO giving oral sex to another man. The email implies Bill Clinton, but it really doesn’t matter who it is.
That’s a kind of Kompromat that would render ANYONE ineligible to hold a security clearance.

My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
