Abolish ICE is not an absurdity statement. ICE was created in 2003 as a response to 9/11 - we do not need it. We already established that following orders isn't an excuse.

Smiling and nodding when Elon says “if we cancel something good we’ll just put it back in like we did with ebola prevention” requires you to believe that Elon Musk both is and should be the emperor.

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

BREAKING: Free speech is going so well in the US that they are now monitoring social media to ensure you are not expressing opinions the government disapproves of x

For years conservatives and some liberals complained incessantly about ‘cancel culture’ and the lack of ‘free speech’ on campuses. None of that stuff comes even close to what the right is now doing in power, in terms of the open bullying and pressuring of colleges and censoring of curricula.

I'd donate to a gofundme for some enterprising soon-to-be-fired Smithsonian employee turned hero to nab that portrait Trump had removed from the Colorado State Capitol Building and relocate it to the entrance of the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery affixed with permanent adhesive.

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam. It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

Let’s be clear—Kevin O’Leary did it to interrupt her and then acts offended when he’s called out. Angela Rye has boundaries and defended them. Good on her!

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

I am admittedly not a business genius, so I'm just sitting here drinking my coffee and waiting to see how erasing the story of Navajo Wind Talkers from our military history lowers the cost of gas per gallon at the pump. This Trump guy is a real brain.

Just six years ago, Gabbard was slamming Donald Trump for helping the Saudis to bomb Yemen in what she called a "genocide" and said we "need a new president." Today, she works for Donald Trump and is defending Trump's direct attacks on Yemen and his killing of innocent people.

If you were outraged by the crimes against civilians on Oct 7th but not by the many more crimes against civilians since Oct 7th - just this week: kids being burned from head to toe; having their limbs amputated without anesthetic - then you don’t actually care about crimes against civilians.

Chuck Schumer suggests it is antisemitic to say what Israel is doing in Gaza is a genocide. Yet some of Israel’s own top scholars of genocide and the Holocaust, all of them Jewish - Omer Bartov, Amos Goldberg, Daniel Blatman - say it is a genocide in Gaza. Does Schumer consider them antisemite too?

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

We’re only two months in, & they’re cancelling research into pediatric brain cancer. They’re deporting US kids with brain cancer. They’re putting millions at risk of malaria, TB, & polio. I for one will never forgive or forget those who said ‘it won’t be that bad’. 😡

I’m so tired of hearing Rubio & other rightwingers now claiming that if you’re on a green card you’re a ‘guest’ in this country. BS. You’re a lawful permanent resident. The clue is in the name. If someone is a permanent resident in your home, are they the same as the guests who come and go? Come on.

Elon Musk is "despicable" and an "absolute threat to our democracy," Democratic Senator Tina Smith tells me, but "his threat is rooted in Donald Trump." Watch my full interview with Sen. Smith on Musk, Trump, DOGE, Gaza, the future of the Dems, and more. Full interview: zeteo.com/p/a-dick-a-j...
