As a veteran I know I’m a patriot, and don’t need to fly a flag in front of my house to prove it. Same goes for my veteran father, brother, and son.

Nearly two-thirds of voters (64 percent) say they prefer giving most undocumented immigrants in the United States a pathway to legal status according to the most recent Quinnipiac poll. poll.qu.edu/poll-release...

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

Places where your newborn children are (for now) automatic citizens of the United States: CA, CO, CT, DE, DC, HI, MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, NJ, NM, NV, NY, NC, RI, VT, WI, City of San Francisco In every other state, the Republican Party has stolen birthright citizenship from your newborn children.

Absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. Whatever you think of Zohran Mamdani’s politics, there is absolutely no place for this kind of hate and bigotry. Rep. Ogles loves to get attention by being inflammatory, but all you end up doing is exposing yourself as an asshole.

Eager to soothe Trump’s wounded ego, the Supreme Court ended nationwide injunctions today. Trump is crowing, but this just means we’ll take our smashing wins in 4 district courts and turn them into wins in 94 district courts. People born here are citizens, period.

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this? Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids. She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms. Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen. 🧵

🧵I am watching a ton of these kidnapping videos, pouring through all the sites, and one thing is very apparent. It is no longer a few ICE agents making a raid on a Home Depot. In every vid there are more and more armed thugs, literal thugs, and the violence and force escalating.

😢

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Hi, No news organizations should be calling these masked individuals “ICE Agents” until they are able to independently confirm that they are who they purport to be.

It’s heartbreaking to watch a nation that once inspired the world now struggles to hold itself together. This isn’t the America we believed in! As a neighbor, it’s painful to watch the fire spread from a home we once admired. The #DefendersOfDemocracy stands with our American brothers and sisters!

Bove’s confirmation hearing for the 3rd Circuit is on Wednesday. His own former DOJ colleagues say they don’t trust him to be impartial. Watch the video & insist that your senators do too before they vote.

Bombing Iran is a great way to distract from how your administration is bombing elsewhere.

So far it appears as if Irans response, similar to after solemani was killed, is an attempt To respond to save face but not escalate.

ICE took a mom of 2, including a breastfeeding infant, at a routine immigration appt. Her husband, a disabled vet, is left to care for their children alone, forced to drive hrs just to see his wife in detention 🤬 We are not deporting criminals 🤬 We are not more safe apnews.com/article/ice-...

We are now in the infamous "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" swaggering stage of successfully provoking a country in the Middle East to want to kill Americans.

I keep thinking about our armed service members who are now in a war, led by a Commander-in-Chief who will consider them “losers and suckers” should they become injured or, God forbid, lose their lives in the time ahead. The rest of us good Americans thank you for your service. Godspeed.

Beyond parody.

Well, it worked. The media has moved on.

"Trump has spent the last five months vowing that the Ukraine-Russia war would never have happened if he was president, vowing that the Israel-Gaza war would never have happened if he was president. And yet the reality is that not only has he not avoided war, but he’s plunged us into a new one."

Until Musk

Exactly

THIS!!!

First Felon’s attack on Iran has pushed this horrid bill right off the news cycle. Just as he planned.
