Behold! A $3M American missile, launched by a $200M jet that flies at a cost of $20,000 dollars/hour to kill people who live on less than $10 a day in Iran. Meanwhile in the US, Republicans believe that a $6.20 daily SNAP benefit providing food to a needy person is wasteful spending. ~Jacob Lassiter

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

Tell Congress: Impeach DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Contact Congress today!

100 cosponsors and 30k letters sent to Congress for impeaching Noem in a week is something special.

But we aren’t even close to the finish line, so let’s keep pushing!

🧡In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

Pastor: I saw ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic. I said, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The next thing I knew, they put handcuffs on me and put me in the back of an SUV. I asked if I was under arrest. They said to me, 'Well, you're white, you won't be any fun anyway.'

@maddow.bsky.social: β€œThere are very few Americans right now who have any idea why the United States did this. If this was about drug trafficking then why did President Trump just pardon the former President of Honduras who was convicted of sending hundreds of tons of drugs into the US?”

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain.

The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

We ran the table and we ran up the score. From Maine to California, from New Jersey to Virginia, in New York City and Pennsylvania, Democracy is still alive and kicking. We are winning the shutdown.

Don't give into fear and cynicism.

Keep fighting back like millions of Americans did tonight.

Billboards outside US Southern Command urge troops not to 'break the law’ in Caribbean strikes β€œDon’t let them make you break the law,” reads a billboard along the road to U.S. Southern Command, one of several set up by veterans.

"The new billboards are designed to inform troops of legal resources … 'The [Southern Command] strikes … represent the most blatantly illegal act that this administration has had the military carry out.'"

The Jewish right discovering in real time that the Trumpist right, and the open bigotries it has unleashed upon the US body politic, is not in fact going to spare Jews, is quite a trip.

More than 100 judges have ruled against the Trump admin’s mandatory detention policy A POLITICO review of the rulings shows judges appointed by every president since Ronald Reagan have rebuked the administration’s new interpretation of immigration law.

NEW: More than 100 federal judges have now rejected the Trump administration’s new policy to lock up nearly everyone facing deportation β€” including 12 judges appointed by Trump, according to a POLITICO analysis.

Only 2 judges have sided with ICE.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
