My friend @rokhanna.bsky.social is absolutely right.
When the President of the United States threatens genocide against millions of innocent people, Democratic leadership should stand in clear moral opposition — not hide behind procedure.

Make no mistake: the AI boom, and data center construction it requires, is nothing more than a massive giveaway to Big Tech oligarchs at the expense of our environment and our states’ public resources.
Our leaders should put communities before Big Tech's bottom lines.
I moved to SF at 23 in 2009, and I’m raising my family here. But my opponent is spinning lies to make me seem like a carpetbagger. Whether you grew up here, moved here, or arrived yesterday — this is a city that welcomes everyone. I’m proud to call San Francisco home.

Graphic says: If you're reading this, DHS paramilitaries have shot another person.
BREAKING: 1 person is in critical condition after being shot by Border Patrol in Arizona.
The individual, who has not been identified, was shot in southern Pima County near milepost 15 of West Arivaca Road at around 7:30 a.m., according to a news release from the Santa Rita Fire District.
Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.
50501, we want to take your lead. Now is the time to act in solidarity with the resistance in Minnesota and fight for the abolition of the nazi paramilitary force that is ICE. Tell us: How should we move next?
Abolish ICE, prosecute all of them!
ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?
ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.
I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.
Hahaha. Canada, we love you. Honestly, not being invited is a badge of honor. Wear it proudly.
Tonight at 4 pm, San Francisco will stand in solidarity with Minneapolis and other communities across the country targeted by ICE. From coast to coast, people are showing up to make it clear that ICE is not welcome.
It is really disturbing how little pushback Trump is getting from Democrats. America is so done. Even if they manage to get through Trump 2.0 without demolishing absolutely everything.
The letter in full reads: “Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”
This is the full text of the real, batshit insane letter Trump sent to the Norwegian Prime Minister.
We all know MAGA is a death cult, but if Congress & his Cabinet refuse to remove the mentally incontinent idiot from office, they’re guilty of risking the lives of every single person on the planet.
My vote would have been HELL NO.
Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.
Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.
Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.
Trump’s secret police are killing people in the street. People can’t afford rent or groceries. Health care is absurdly expensive.
When politicians take AIPAC money, they’re telling you whose priorities come first, and it isn’t yours.
AIPAC wants to buy this seat. We can’t let that happen.
Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?
Map from NOAA Climate at a Glance depicting the relative rank of Nov-Dec 2025 temperatures on a county-by-county basis. Most Western U.S. counties experienced their warmest Nov-Dec on record, as depicted by all locations dark red in color on the map.
Well, it's now official (per NOAA): Dec (and Nov-Dec) 2025 were the warmest such periods on record for Western U.S. (and also for most individual Western states). It has been an extraordinarily sustained period of winter warmth, and this eerily balmy winter continues into Jan.
We can either let the abuses of Donald Trump's administration become our new normal.
Or we can pursue real justice, accountability, and transparency.
Illinois has chosen our path — those who believe in the Constitution and the promise of America should join us in doing so.
Attempting to criminalize the actions of an independent public servant, Fed Chair Jay Powell, for the sin of acting independently is an outrage. It's bad economics, bad politics, bad for the rule of law, bad for the public sector, bad for American credibility and bad for Americans.
WARNING to ST. Paul: ICE is going door to door with weapons drawn.
