Gov. Tim Walz State Address: "We have university students shoved into unmarked vans and fathers being tossed into Salvadorian gulags without a hint of due process. If you say you love freedom, but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love isn't freedom, it's privilege."

Where’s @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social ? Mahmoud Khalil is a legal resident of NY—your constituent. You weren’t part of the delegation that showed up—so what are you doing to make this right and to stop innocent people from being snatched off NY streets w/out due process?

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

Newsom: In 2023, Californians contributed $83.1 billion more to the federal government than we received back. And for your viewers: that other state—Texas—took $71.1 billion more than it contributed to the federal government. California: $83 billion, contributor. Texas: taker.

At the time, I concluded this was likely NOT a "slip-up." Right wingers do this ALL THE TIME (just ask people like @noupside.bsky.social & @ninajankowicz.com, or 51 former spooks). And, as @gregsargent.bsky.social noted, they DID redact the name of the cop prosecuted for misconduct subsequently.

North Carolina trial judges have thrown out another Republican attempt to strip the governor of his authority to appoint State Board of Elections members, declaring that a law shifting it to the elected state auditor is unconstitutional.

Republicans are counting on us to ignore what’s happening in the states they control. They are banking on us not having the resources or the will to fight for voting rights. They want us to be resigned and demoralized while their voter suppression machine grinds on.

Imagine America during the Korean War in 1950 telling the embattled southern forces after Pyongyang’s massive invasion that both sides “need to put down their weapons and build a better North and South Korea.” Trump is acting as a de facto Russian ally. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Throughout 2024, I said that the worst thing about Trump's return to power would be America's abandonment of the Ukrainians. We would throw them to the wolves. It would be sickening. And it is.

A few weeks before the election, Kamala Harris announced a plan that wiped medical debt off credit reports. After a whole four years of Joe Biden trying to forgive every student loan he could. Because of the people who didn't vote for her, the loan payments are due and going on your credit report.

Trump is once again speaking on behalf of Putin, blaming Zelensky and not Putin for his inability to resolve the conflict. He doesn't care about the people of Ukraine or their sovereignty. He just wants to get credit for ending the war.

A lot of people in power are demonstrating that they don’t actually believe in the premise of the Declaration of Independence or the republic as a concept. They believe that some people are created superior, and it is offensive and wrong for superiors to live bound by the needs of those below them.

The most disappointing thing I heard, regarding comics, was a writer, penning one of my favorite characters, and saying he didn't read any of the previous appearances. And I thought, "You'll get it wrong--and it will be another 10 years before they risk that title again". And that's what happened.

The mass firing of General Services Administration staff and the potential disposal of federal courthouses will have grave consequences. These steps undermine the independent federal judiciary and deprive the American people of justice. It's unacceptable.
