ICE Arrests 85-Year-Old French Widow Who Married Her G.I. Sweetheart

Not only did the sons probably call ICE on her, the day after her husband died they took their dad's cars, leaving her housebound. Then they rerouted mail, causing her to miss a visa appointment & the utilities to be turned off. Tony and Gary Ross are going to hell.

Apple is closing its first unionized store in the country.

Reminder that Apple spent $700B+ on stock buybacks over the past decade.

CEO Tim Cook raked in over $74M in compensation in 2025 — 650 times the median Apple employee's pay.

The greed of union-busters knows no end.

Temporary Squeaker Mike is so dumb it hurts.

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty: "Are we concerned as to whether there would be federal blowback? Not a concern of ours. Our role is to hold people accountable if they violate the laws of Minnesota. We feel strongly that this ICE agent committed 2nd degree assault."

First Nation leaders call for inquiry into RCMP spying program First Nations leaders called on the RCMP to apologize and demanded a federal inquiry into spying allegations political leaders in the 1960s.

'What we have learned through recent reporting confirms what our Elders and our leaders and our nations have said for generations — that the RCMP have always monitored our First Nations leadership...' says AMC Grand Chief Kyra Wilson.

I mean, it sorta makes sense when we have a president who said members of the military were suckers and losers.

Y'all remember that, right?

West Virginia dad dies after insurer denied his $50,000 cancer treatment 4 times — 93% of patients face the same delays The vast majority of patients who require prior authorization from their insurer face delays, which can result in permanent disability or even death.

His oncologist recommended the treatment, his insurance carrier said no.

This country is spending billions on a no-reason-for-it war, yet Americans are dying, going hungry and homeless.

This cannot stand. Call your representatives in Congress, no matter their party.

A tweet from Representative Thomas Massie that reads: I just viewed 2 Top Secret FISA docs. 1) FISA Court opinion that raises serious concerns about FBI implementation of FISA 702. 2) letter by Senator Wyden describing a secret government interpretation of FISA law. The Constitution requires I vote No on FISA 702 reauthorization.

I sent a classified letter to House and Senate colleagues about a secret interpretation of surveillance law that every American should be concerned about.

Representative Massie is right. The Constitution requires EVERY member to vote against a clean reauthorization.

He didn’t help ‘Save America’, his strategy was to overthrow the government. John Eastman has officially been disbarred.

This is true but it is ALSO wild that the WH thought a grandma who has to Door Dash to remain solvent while her husband is treated for Stage 3 cancer -- was a GOOD news story for them

There is a Rosetta Stone-ishness here I can't get past

I also think it speaks to how little time he spends having anyone not say essentially what he expects and wants.

he won because the marginal voter thought he would make them economically secure, if not rich. he *thinks* he won because of anti-trans bigotry. he has spent his time in office ignoring the concerns of the marginal voter and focusing on the preoccupations of ideologues.

A young man from Sichuan, China goes to "Skid Row" in Los Angeles to feed the homeless. Ends up getting arrested.
