It’s probably not *good*…
Tweet from Shawn VanDiver: I owe an apology to every person I introduced to Eric Swalwell over the years. The rumors about him weren’t new. They had been circulating for a long time, and many people were aware of them. When he asked for my support in the California gubernatorial race, I raised those concerns directly. He unequivocally denied them, dismissing it as Washington rumor mill nonsense and claiming there was no truth behind it. He framed it as behavior from when he was single, without recognizing or acknowledging the underlying power dynamics at play. I took him at his word. That was a mistake and a failure.
Part II of the Tweet: I should have listened more carefully to the people who warned me. I regret not taking those concerns more seriously, and I regret the role I played in lending him credibility. We all need to do better about who we trust, who we elevate, and when we choose to look the other way.

WILL WONDERS NEVER CEASE
The icing on the cake would be if both teams turn down offers to come to the White House.🏆🏆
I am in awe of the inner strength, determination, faith and fortitude of these men. #WalkForPeace They are our living breathing daily (step-by-step for 2,300 miles across America) example of never giving up no matter what we face.

BREAKING: Judge Boasberg has GRANTED our motion to compel in our DOGE FOIA case involving Musk's phone(s). The government must now reach out to Sean Duffy and multiple Republican Senators to comply. www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-j...
NEW: This isn't about "training." The two agents who murdered Alex Pretti - Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez - have been with Border Patrol for 8 and 12 years respectively. You can't reform CBP. Abolish ICE/CBP. www.propublica.org/article/alex...
THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!
🚨TONIGHT’S PROTEST IN MINNEAPOLIS IS INSANE:
CNN is STUNNED. Share this widely!
“I've covered many protests… I've not seen a crowd like this before.” It’s 8 degrees. “It is freezing, but nothing, nothing is stopping these people.”
This isn’t a rally. It’s a movement. @calltoactivism.bsky.social
Thank you @democrats.senate.gov for voting unanimously for Senator Sanders’ Amendment to strip ICE of BBB funding. Can you please demand the Sanders Amendment as a condition to fund DHS now that you’ve successfully separated it from the larger spending package?
ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Jack Smith will appear before the House Judiciary Committee on Thursday, Jan. 22. The hearing is set to begin at 10 a.m. EST.
Don’t be distracted by Trump and his antics. He’s definitely going to try and divert attention away from Jack, and his truth.
Are you low vision? Serious question. Because I’m nearsighted AF and I can see that isn’t what happened.
Believe what you’re seeing with your own eyes. We know what really happened.
Here’s a comment for the people who are upset that MN hasn’t charged Jonathan Ross already:
If you just Leeeroy Jenkins this shit you will lose and you will empower fascism and murder.
It is indescribably hard to prosecute cops for murder. It is even hard when the murder is ON VIDEO.

"Frank, my 91-year-old client and Navy veteran, marched for civil rights when he was young. Now an African American is his caregiver. That’s a full circle moment. Thank you to everyone who loves and supports this page. Be kind to one another."
Moskowitz on Noem: "Is she hiding her face like her ICE agents now? By the way - is this what the $800b went to? Every day we see her after some new tragedy, she's wearing a different outfit with a different hat. She looks ridiculous. She deserves to be removed from her job, & if not impeached."
Instant karma
We’re getting sick of hearing the name “Trump”. - the world.
Awesome
None.

A Walk for Peace USA highlight was the monks with their dog Alota’s crossing of the Edmund Pettus Bridge
“With mindful steps, loving-kindness, and quiet reverence, we honored history, healed through compassion, and dedicated merit for peace…”
