If your leaders keep failing you by being weak, and everyone makes fun of them for being weak, and they lose all the battles they should have won? Then it’s long past time to replace your leaders. because they are obviously very bad leaders. You don’t owe them a goddamn thing.

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

The pardons he sold took money from the victims — from their pockets (and ours) right into his.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

I hope some of our other elected officials realize that No Kings Day was pointed at them too. If you care more about reelection than the state of the country? We’ll get you out too.

Dear Trump, Putting out a fire you purposely started doesn't make you a firefighter. It makes you an arsonist with a hose.

I gotta say, Gavin Newsom is meeting this extraordinary moment like a total f’ng badass. Do not obey in advance. Communicate often. Remain calm. Hold the line. Call them on their bullshit. Bring the facts. And push the fuck back. This is the way.

It is becoming just that, here in the United States. Get him the fuck out of the White House. And all of his lawbreaking, enabling ass clowns, too.

Before E Pluribus Unum appeared on US coins (1795) & long before In God We Trust (1864/1957), there was Mind Your Business (1776). The Continental Dollar, designed by Ben Franklin. Believed to be meant both literally & socially, the message also appeared on the One Cent piece in 1787. My copies:

Trump’s playbook is simple: punish anyone who stands in his way. This ain’t law and order—it’s a rise of authoritarianism in real time.

Pete Hegseth installed Signal on a secure Pentagon computer—then used it to leak strike plans straight from a classified system. This isn’t a “glitch.” This is deliberate, dangerous, and disqualifying. He’s a severe national security threat. Fire him. MORE: www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Probably a good time to remind everyone that the majority of German concentration camps were, in fact, NOT located in Germany, and our piece of dog shit president told the dog shit president of El Salvador to build 5 more "prisons" for homegrown U.S. citizens. The time for civility is OVER.

STRAIGHT UP AUTHORITARIANISM!!! DOGE is secretly monitoring staff — scanning messages, watching for disloyalty— and using AI to do it. No one should have to work under these conditions.

Make no mistake — the Trump administration is refusing to comply with the Supreme Court as it pertains to Abrego Garcia's release. This is where we are now. This is what they are doing. This is only the beginning.

Add this to the fact that every time Trump golfs at one of his own resorts, he jacks up the hotel rates for the Secret Service. The American people foot the bill—and he pockets the cash. That’s the waste, fraud and abuse DOGE should be exposing.
