More of this from everyone, please. ICE "agents" must be forced to show their identification and authorization to detain anyone. It is kidnapping otherwise.

ICE isn't targeting criminals. They’re arresting nonviolent, law-abiding mothers, fathers, and kids, tearing families apart. Asylum is a legal path to immigration, but Trump is voiding asylum claims so masked ICE officers can meet mass deportation quotas. This is not the America I know.

Take note.

This should be the “read my lips: no new taxes” Dem campaign commercial for 2028

Imagine if the headline was, "Vice President acts like a petulant child while using Marines as props"?

Blown away by this production tonight. See it if you can.

Justice Sotomayor's dissent made this crucial point on Tennessee's ban restricting certain gender affirming care for minors: Not all gender affirming care for minors is banned — only trans kids' care. @leahlitman.bsky.social joins me live to discuss at 5 pm ET open.substack.com/live-stream/...

The US has denied the visas of all 12 members of the Senegalese women’s basketball team who were scheduled to travel to the country as part of their preparation for the Afrobasket tournament that begins in August. Afrobasket is also the African qualifiers for the Olympics. #wnba

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of two facts: 1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it. Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

Note the comment "human trafficking for a paycheck"

Who else nearly fell out of the seat when you heard Cosplay Kristi accuse Sen. Padilla of “political theater”?

We're totally in the upside-down when Rand Paul is absolutely correct. Dude from WVA says the quiet part out loud. The rest of them ? Cowards to the core. www.huffpost.com/entry/gop-se...

Why are Republicans betraying America's 170 million women and girls? To pad the pockets of just 900 billionaires.

"2022, Biden [delivered] a speech... that aimed to warn the public about the authoritarian impulses of then-former President Trump... He was flanked by two Marines... Republicans and reporters immediately jumped on Biden, slamming him for politicizing the military." www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Because what every house these days needs is a ballroom

Not enough popcorn in the world right now

Concepts of announcements

Hold every single Republican responsible. From dog catcher to Senator. Every. Single. One.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

One reason that you don't want the government to run like a startup is that when a manic Apartheid heir decides he wants to give 1,400 infants a day HIV, the government should be there to stop him, not to help him.

If I were JD Vance, I would consider whether God is perhaps sending me some fairly specific messages

Hard to see this in any other way than a rebuke of trump. Well played.

Impossible to communicate to people that once you decide that a group more vulnerable than you can be sacrificed in the name of your own safety or interests that you have already entered into an tacit agreement that you can also be sacrificed in the interests of a group less vulnerable than you.

This is asinine. The US had a deeply unserious government right now
