I’m a loyal and positive Vikings fan, so you know I’m unbreakable. I married my favorite human. I’m also a fan of nature, local theater, Bravo, kindness, Hallmark (not just at Christmas), sunrises, the Muppets, my niblings, and empathy - I have layers.

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

This should terrify everyone.
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Honor, don’t bury or whitewash the history of our ancestors who were lynched.

Sen Mike Lee & the silence from Republicans made it clear: decency is in the rearview mirror.

After he mocked a political assassination, Ed Shelleby, a senior staffer to Sen Tina Smith, wrote to Lee’s top staffers.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com read it on-air, and honestly everyone should hear it.

Jesus Christ, ICE is trying to snatch children from schools.

THIS
ADMINISTRATION
IS
TRYING
TO
STEAL
AND
DISAPPEAR
CHILDREN
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Once again, people will die as a direct result of their actions; and once again, they do not care. They know; they just do not care. This is where we are.
This administration has fired crisis counselors for our veterans and now for kids. This bullshit doesn’t make us great.

Any one of these calls could be life or death for a child. This senseless act of cruelty will kill people and they know it.

These two pictures say everything about this administration.
One is fighting a dictator. One is a dictator.

A global disgrace.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price.

Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

Not great - but 100% on brand
The optics of Trump demolishing the economy and then peacing out for some R&R at a Saudi-funded golf tournament held at a private club he still owns and profits from aren’t great

Catching up on some important TV, so I just saw @amberruffin.bsky.social respond to the WHCA decision, and it was even more perfect than I could have imagined. She has clinched her title as a national treasure.

Wise words from Senator Booker –

Great leaders don’t try to convince you how fantastic THEY are – they remind you how powerful YOU are.

This is one story of many.
NEW: Another day, another fascist crime.🧵

Jerce Reyes Barrios, a pro soccer player, was tortured by the regime in Venezuela. He sought asylum in the US & was due a final hearing next month.

BUT with no criminal record, nor gang membership, ICE has trafficked him to the hell prison in El Salvador.
