DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

The fascism is killing us, some faster than others, but nearly all of us either way.

On NJ Transit on the way home and the train just died.

Just another day/reminder of how “the richest and most powerful nation in the world” cannot do mass transit.

We can afford a war and build concentration camps, but not mass transit.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

Thousands of Colorado students have taken over downtown Denver, shutting down streets and demanding ICE OUT. Massive energy, and a message echoing across the city that can't be ignored👏🏼👏🏼

NOPE

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

❗️🇺🇦 The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry responded to Putin's statements about the release of prisoners of war of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with Hungarian citizenship

As noted in the department, the Ukrainian side was not provided with information about who exactly was released from Russian captivity.

Fuck @fetterman.senate.gov @johnfetterman.com

He makes Manchin and Sinema look like Che Guevara.

ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodríguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodríguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani drew a hard line. He signed an executive order barring ICE from NYC property - schools, hospitals, shelters, parking lots - without a judicial warrant. Sanctuary protections strengthened. Immigrant rights defended. Federal overreach blocked. NYC stood up.👏🏼👏🏼

Well would you look at that

More people should really stop and take notice when the supposed opposition party is calling a war illegal and unconstitutional, but will not suggest consequences of any kind for starting it.

They're also subtly de-escalating the severity by pretending this was solely an issue of permission.

Rep Justin Jones made a statement entrance, walking into the Tennessee legislature with an"Abolish ICE" flag. No subtlety. No backing down. Just a message delivered loud and clear!!💥

Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

I need some recommendations for the best Arthurian novels - the original Malory (there must be a good modern English version?), retellings, re-imaginings, modern and old, including works that aren't quite retellings but take a lot of inspiration (like The Everlasting by @alixeharrow.bsky.social).

I’ve seen enough. Not about the election. Just generally.

Yet another broken promise from President Trump.

A democratic candidate just won in the *checks notes*

Arkansas state house special election.

Flip from R to D.

Minnesota is mourning the loss of Sergeant First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake who was killed in Kuwait on Sunday.

She answered the call to serve and gave her life in service to our state and nation. Minnesotans are wrapping our arms around her loved ones.

This week, the House Ag Committee will be marking up the Farm Bill. During this marathon session, I’m going to be fighting to support new and beginning farmers, strengthen conservation programs, and invest in our rural communities.

Stay tuned to learn more about my amendments!

I’m really disgusted with politicians who put part over country.

8 if you count the invasion of L.A, Portland, Minneapolis -- not bombing in the traditional sense, of course. But nothing is traditional at the moment.

wow -- Tillis goes ballistic on Noem, telling her "what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership"
