ICE detained Julio Noriega, a 54 year-old US citizen who was born in Chicago, for over 10 hours on January 31st. He was walking around "Berwyn, Illinois, handing out his resume to local businesses." They didn't show him a warrant. They didn't give him paperwork. And he's now suing.

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money. He was not dead.

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

I signed a letter asking for Mahmoud Khalil’s immediate release. We will not let this administration trample our constitutional rights and silence voices they don’t like. Free Mahmoud Khalil.

A recent study found that cervical cancer deaths in young women have plummeted since the introduction of the human papillomavirus vaccine.

Their job is to **identify American soldiers** killed in combat and Trump has told them to stand down and stop their work. "Forensic genealogists who help identify U.S. soldiers killed in combat were told to pause their efforts..." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Fact-check: True

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

This is almost verbatim the way my narcissistic abuser spoke about kicking me out as a teen. It's almost as if... Pres. Zelensky, we Americans are so sorry for how you were treated. You and your people deserve better. 🩵💛

"daddy, what did you do in the war" son, i archived all 6,793 videos from the Kennedy Center before they disappeared from the internet we all did our part

NEW: “Kennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.” newrepublic.com/post/192059/...

Pres. Zelensky, as an American, PLEASE don't give even an inch to him. America supports you, even if he's yelling the opposite very loudly. 🩵💛

Twenty-one members of the United State DOGE Service have resigned, they said in an anonymous letter, citing DOGE's ongoing work dramatically reshaping the federal government.

i keep seeing the right argue that the nazi salutes are "trolling." i think there's some truth to that, but know what exactly is being mocked. they aren't mocking the idea that they could be nazis, they're mocking the idea that they should care one way or the other.

Sign of the day…

“At least Russia has elections” Russia frequently jails and kills any opposition to Putin, who has been in power since 1999. If you like dictatorships, that’s fine. Just admit that. Don’t insult anyone’s intelligence—including your own—by claiming Russia has real elections.

Dark Pence is back.

Bird Flu is spreading across the nation and putting the country in danger. The Trump administration response is to fire USDA microbiologists fighting the disease. We are using every tool available to us to stop them.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Ooops, sorry, didn’t mean to drop this. 😏

Build the wall! Around DOGE!

This is probably the most accurate take.

🚨 Trump & Elon Musk illegally revoked $80 MILLION in congressionally appropriated FEMA funds from NYC’s bank account yesterday—money previously disbursed for shelter & services—says NYC Comptroller Brad Lander. Lander is demanding that the state pursue legal action. Statement:

A 71-year-old woman has died after her oxygen supply was cut off when Trump announced his federal funding freeze.

When someone asks me why I'm "so into politics"

A coalition of news organizations said in a court filing that video exhibits from a Jan. 6 riot case had "disappeared" from a government platform that provided access to evidence used in court.

If a company did a social media post saying they were taking the ad money and doing good with it, they'd have at least one loyal customer for life 🙋

This is absolutely disgusting. HOW does this help, when those very materials help searchers and families?? I thought they were all about #saveourkids??

We know what’s going on here.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

ABC: “federal judge blocked Trump administration from orchestrating its plan to place 2,200 employees of USAID on leave at midnight… also ordered reinstatement of 500 workers and ordered no USAID employees should be evacuated from their host countries…”

Bisan going home is everything ❤️‍🩹 it is the hope I needed after these last few weeks, and it just reinvigorates the fight in me ❤️‍🩹 we're so happy for you!

A non-government business that contracts with the federal government received notice today that in order to do business with the government they must certify that they don’t participate in DEI. So it’s not just the feds, it’s any private biz that contracts with the feds. Here’s the message they got:

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts. NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms. This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.
