I've always been happy to be a background player in this game of American life, a cog in this machine in which we exist. But all of a sudden this America I have loved all my life is unfamiliar, hostile, confusing, and very disappointing. So....

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

WATCH: After hyping a dramatic “cartel drone” incursion, Trump officials shut down El Paso’s airspace and fired a borrowed Pentagon anti-drone laser—at what turned out to be four party balloons.
Trump admin’s ‘cartel drone’ story bursts like a balloon. Or four.

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

More attention here, please.
Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

Apparently there was a city meeting in Hutchins, Texas, tonight. Hutchins is the location of DHS's newly announced 10,000-person concentration camp. What I've been told is that city officials were unanimously and adamantly opposed to it.

Unfortunately, I'm seeing this nowhere online.

I hope they didn’t think we forgot about impeaching Kristi Noem. 181 cosponsors and counting, 40k+ letters sent, and countless calls telling Representatives to get on board.

Let them know we aren’t slowing down. Send your letter here:

Van Hollen has been much better than most Democrats, but once again, I am asking elected leaders to stop providing running commentary like a common pundit or beat reporter and instead tell *us* what to do about it or tell us what *they* are doing about it.
Foreign countries are bribing our president to sell out the American people.
 
Trump family businesses made $187 MILLION from this deal, and just months later he gave the UAE some of our most top-secret AI tech.
 
They are selling our national security to the highest bidder.

when trump first started running for president he didnt just say "wow, there are so many illegals coming here, something should be done" he told his base he would build a wall. now, that is racism and stupidity all wrapped in one -- but its also a model for effective communication.

They look like any/many of my relatives.
Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

I'm not crying, you're crying.
While the most important thing is that he's back home, I'm really glad Liam got his hat and backpack back.

“Dear ICE agents - I hope you’re respectful to everyone and show kindness… we should treat all people the same, even if we don’t know them.”

If this doesn’t shatter your heart you don’t have one. 💔
