Yesterday, Maurene Comey, who prosecuted the Epstein case, was summarily fired from SDNY. Her letter to colleagues pulls no punches. "Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought."

WTF?!? Border Czar Tom Homan claimed that ICE and Border Patrol agents don’t need probable cause to detain people they suspect are undocumented, saying they can do so based on factors like physical appearance. This is straight-up racial profiling, not law enforcement.

This guy saved a 9 year child at the beach when she was attacked by a shark. She lost her hand.

That put him on the radar, ICE has now detained this hero.

And thank you NBC Miami for properly naming the Gulf of Mexico!

I would like for wealthy people excited for tax cuts to sign a piece of paper acknowledging that every dollar they get in tax breaks is going to be paid for by someone else…either someone not getting healthcare or SNAP or some future person paying higher taxes to pay the interest on our new debt.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Abolish ICE
ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

To be clear, nothing - NOTHING - Joe Biden said 4 years, including his debate meltdown, comes anywhere close to the insanity, unreality, unhingeness, of Trump repeatedly insisting - even when the interviewer is letting his crazy lie pass - that it was a real image of his knuckles
I had to upload the clip here because it's frankly insane. Possibly the most insane trump clip yet. His brain is pudding

Our fascist government put a third-grader in handcuffs.
A mother and her three children were snatched by ICE from a dairy farm in Sackets Harbor, a rural town in northern New York.

But the location is no coincidence—Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, LIVES THERE. He allowed his own neighbors, including a third grader, to be jailed. Deplorable.
