Sen. Dick Durbin, another one of the 8 Democratic YES votes on Nov funding bill, is a NO on this DHS measure: “I will not vote to fund the illegal DHS and ICE operations that terrorize Chicago, Minneapolis, and many other communities.”

What if we got back into impeaching judges?

The narrative the White House and Fox News is pushing that protesters are too organized and funded is right out of the authoritarian playbook.
It’s a way to delegitimize and criminalize left-wing groups, donors, and the Democratic Party.
It’s not gonna work.

The source of my anxiety for the last two months, Kickball Registration, is now in full swing. Today is the easiest day, and it's all downhill from here.

And THIS is why I'm trying to have all kickball games away from the mall

Mary Peltola enters Alaska U.S. Senate race.
She takes on Sen. Dan Sullivan.
Dems say Peltola makes Alaska one of their top chances to flip a seat.

I just think prosecuting ICE agents would help with the vibes. Whatever resources governors and mayors can summon to help in that endeavor, they should.
Last year I was like "In 2025, I'm gonna be a hater" and was too soft to keep up the bit. Luckily, in 2026, Im like "most ppl are dreadful. Let's go dance."
