AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

"If Trump is still alive on January 20, 2029, the chances of him not using the plane after his presidency ends are roughly equivalent to Mark Zuckerberg having more than three non-AI friends."

They're deporting citizens. They're arresting judges. They're entering homes and arresting without warrants. Tyranny is here.

Again, I just want to congratulate the journalists who covered the 2024 election. All that focus on fracking was really smart. Y’all nailed it. Keep up the great work!

Maybe everyone can see it now, but the world's richest people have tanked it all to restock assets and get liquid after years of illegally playing with funny money. They used "the wokeness" as a cudgel and it worked. The next Disney princess WILL be white, as we all eat beans under the highway.

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

This is injecting bleach for the entire global economy. And he's not just floating the idea: he's holding the syringe.

On behalf of a rapidly collapsing republic, I beg you to get past terrified and go straight to enraged.

As more information is revealed, it is clear that the cover-up is even worse than the crime. Every single person involved has no business being involved in our government. At minimum, there should be resignations. And prosecutions.

I feel confident in predicting history will judge this decade or so as the absolutely stupidest time in American history. Honestly our kids and grandkids will read about this time and be shocked that adults existed.

"We do only a small part of our duty to America when we glory in the great past. Patriotism that stops with that is a too-easy patriotism...For each generation the more patriotic part is to carry forward American freedom & American peace by making them living facts in a living present." --FDR, 1936

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's Fascism 101.

Schumer and these 10 Senate Democrats overplayed their hand. They think people will forget and move on. They won't. Schumer just sealed the end of his leadership. It's done. Just a matter of when. Tick Tock.

Democrats just got absolutely and completely rolled. Never once in my time in congress did we ever give up like this

If Dems were unwilling to fight over cabinet nominees and unwilling to fight over the budget/shutdown, it’s safe to assume they’re not going to fight over anything.
