ICE, America's Gestapo, is not a law enforcement agency that sometimes goes too far. Its entire purpose is violence and terror.
Every agent who puts on that uniform does so because they want to participate in a system designed to get the outcome we saw today in Minneapolis.

REP. GOLDMAN: “Trump promised oil executives if they gave him $1 billion for his campaign, he’d do right by them. They gave about $500 million. This is a massive gift in violation of international law, essentially just co-opting an entire country's natural resources for the benefit of 🇺🇸 Companies.”

Fire Tomlin. A week after Allen got dog walked by Houston (giving Tomlin and Austin a literal playbook on how to win), he shreds our defense with a mediocre performance. We’ve been underperforming for a decade, Steelers fans are way beyond over it.

So if all the people from “third world countries” should be banned from migrating to America because of a deadly shooting, what are we going to do about all the armed and alienated young white men?

Republicans who just found a spine to defect from MAGA on Epstein files, plz use said spine to impeach a president publicly calling for the execution of lawmakers. Remember Mike Pence and that no one is safe with this gremlin in power.

I’ve always had more faith in the party than it deserves, but at this point, it’s a bunch of feckless dinosaurs so unprepared to take up the mantle of fighting authoritarianism and with the political astuteness of a rock. Awful.
I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Yup, primary all of them until they call for Schumer’s ousting as leader.
Of course he knew! They think they were being cute with the shuffling of the chairs so retiring Senators and those not up in 2026 were the ones that voted for it.
He thinks we’re all idiots.

@durbin.senate.gov what’s up?
The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

As an Illinoisan, the worst part is knowing Durban is retiring in 2026. He can govern without worrying about reelection and he still sold us down the river. Why? It doesn’t make sense.
Never forget who sold us out:
Hassan
King
Cortez-Masto
Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen

Cortez-Masto

Tell that to your vote, Senator.
Shaheen: So let me be clear. No one in the senate chamber wants to extend the ACA tax credits more than I do.
November 10, 2025 at 2:25 AM

Shame on you @ilsendems.bsky.social
NEW: It appears Senate Dems have enough votes for cloture with Jacky Rosen flipping to a yes vote. Rand Paul voted no. Kaine, Rosen, Fetterman, Shaheen, Hassen, King, Durbin, Cortez-Masto are the dems yes votes.
