Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**

He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY.

I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

The president had his DOJ raid an election office and seize ballots. Now it turns out the whole thing is just election deniers telling the same old lies. Our democracy is in danger but I founded Democracy Docket to help keep you informed on the fight ahead. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

When we get out the other side of this, we should think seriously about making signs like this permanent, like the plaques in Paris that tell you that you're standing on the exact spot where a resistance fighter was shot down by the Nazis in 1944.

Rep. @khanna.house.gov has been relentless in his pursuit of justice for the victims and survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, & others.

He joins me with the latest, including how members of Congress have been blocked by illegal redactions by the DOJ and FBI.

Trump has imposed sanctions on 8 ICC judges and 3 prosecutors. “The sanctioned ICC staff,” Reuters noted, “now sit on the U.S. Treasury Department’s Specially Designated Nationals list, alongside suspected al Qaeda terrorists, Mexican drug traffickers and North Korean arms dealers.” wapo.st/3MsWi3c

A key part of the 2028 Democratic platform had better be to seize Trump's $400 million Qatari bribe plane so he doesn't get to just take it with him like he thinks he's going to, since we're paying to turn it into Air Force One anyway.

Honored to be endorsed by the Georgia AFL-CIO.

Working folks deserve leaders who show up, listen, and fight for them.

That commitment comes from a lifetime of service to this country and long days working the farm back home.

Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown, whose work led to the arrests of Epstein & Maxwell, dropped a bombshell claim, saying the DOJ has been lying and that "there really is an FBI list of other people suspected of possible wrongdoing in connection with Epstein." Trump is on that list, she said,‼️

Here’s the thing - Trump blaming a staffer for a wildly racist post might hit a little different if his official government DHS/DOL feeds weren’t posting a steady drumbeat of white supremacist messaging all day every day

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.
