An ICE agent pointed a gun at the head of a civilian—for snapping a photo of his license plate.

One hand on the trigger, the other fumbling the car door. He didn’t realize someone else was already filming.

No way out but through. Don’t look away.

Eyes on what comes after this, when it’s all over, when we get to right the wrongs.

We who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes.

Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

I just called my reps with @5calls.org, you should too: 5calls.org. The violence and lack of aid to Gaza and its children is horrific. It took me 5 minutes to call my three reps. Please consider doing the same. Thank you.

It may not be a household name, but Palantir is now one of the world's most valuable companies. Its "spy tech" is set to gain more government and military work in the Trump administration.

Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea?

139 years ago today, in Bay View, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 7 workers (including a 13 yo) lost their lives to advance this revolutionary idea.

Oh my God. I just can't. He is just so bad all over the place. Who voted this crass, gross, dumb, vindictive man?
Also, how dumb do you have to be to believe MS-13 members get “MS-13” tattooed on their knuckles.
This exchange is so very telling.

Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this:

"I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

As the crowd at #HandsOff Boston files into City Hall Plaza, someone got up on a barrier waving the flag, and folks started singing the Star Spangled Banner.

Man, the big huge protests in places like Boston, DC, NY, Chicago, and Minneapolis are awe-inspiring.

But my heart is gonna explode looking at these crowds of people out in tiny Maine towns and super red Alabama towns. Places where 15% of the population is on the street corner with more coming!

The irony of Americans electing a fascist because they were more concerned about getting lower grocery prices than saving democracy and then they end up losing democracy AND getting higher grocery prices 🤦🏽‍♂️
Coffee, shrimp, other foods could soar with Trump tariffs
The food hit hardest, if the tariffs take effect, is mostly not grown or harvested in the U.S.
