I realized, after the fact, that I had worn an “I SURVIVED SHARKNADO” shirt to the birth of our second daughter.

If you think you’re on the right side of the Civil Rights Movement, if you quote MLK Jr., if you have to clarify “I’m not racist,” and you are out here twiddling your thumbs right now... Silence still isn’t neutral. The right side isn’t the side you choose when you do nothing.

This should be a bigger story. A Reagan-appointed judge just ruled Trump’s Energy Secretary illegally ran a secret panel of climate deniers to cook up a biased report and sabotage clean air rules. They didn’t follow the law, didn’t follow the science, and betrayed the public to serve Trump’s agenda. Disgraceful. nytimes.com/2026/01/30/clima…

And there it is. ICE officers commit more crimes per capita than illegal immigrants.

Hey America, They're killing US citizens in the street for protesting while telling us to "move on" from billionaire child rapists. Get mad.

“Imagine if we had to follow the law”
Mike Johnson speaks out against the use of judicial warrants in immigration cases: "Imagine if we had to go through the process of getting a judicial warrant"

Trump is referenced around 38,000 times in the #EpsteinFiles. That’s like ten times more than Taylor Swift is referenced on the Taylor Swift fan site.

This place was already getting 🤪 before Phøny Stark took over, but y’all are unhinged. It’s like a commodities market for mushy brains being traded by way of the algorithm.

There is a new game of bingo. Find someone in Trump's inner circle. If you can't tie them to Epstein in one-degrees of separation you win. It cannot be won.
Boy, there sure are a lot of dots connecting Jeffrey Epstein and Bari Weiss, aren’t there? 👀

Over 3M files from Epstein supposedly getting released today. Just this ONE file alone has 26 different new claims against Trump... How many of these were properly investigated?

BREAKING: A video has leaked from an immigration detention center believed to be at 31 Hopkins Plaza, in Baltimore Maryland where legal immigrants are not even allowed to bath for over 10 days. The person speaking Spanish is saying the following: "Look at how they have us here. Look at how immigration is treating us. There are people here who are legal, there are people who are not legal, there are people who are losing their families. They are kidnapping us. They have us in a warehouse here in Baltimore. They beat us, they beat an older man. We can’t take it anymore. They have kept us here for more than 10 days without bathing and enduring hunger.”

People need to see this video. If you haven’t met a lot of people from #Minnesota, this man has never been more angry in his entire life.

Republican billionaires now control every major social media platform, Fox News, CNN, WaPo, WSJ, CBS, and 200 local news stations in 100 markets. They are creating a propaganda state that treats their misinformation as fact, and actual facts as conspiracies. This is by design.
Jesus—Nearly half (47%) of Republicans think the NASA moon landing in 1969 was faked or have doubts, and 52% think vaccines cause autism or have doubts.

Basically “smile more.”
Sean Duffy eliminated fines for airlines that delay or cancel your flights — making it easier for them to disrupt your travel. His grand alternative?? Wear a nice dress on the plane.

Respectfully, you knew, and your peers told you this was going to happen. You chose Trump loyalty over the health and lives of Americans. Posts from you that take no ownership of this public health disaster are insulting at this point.

@CarnivalCruise the smoking policies on the Panorama are 👎🏻 I’m at the main pool trying to enjoy time w/ my family, and developing a headache due to all the cigarette smoke. My kids in the pool are being exposed to a known carcinogen. It’s 2025, you could and should do better.

ICE point guns at 3 U.S. citizen children—brutally kick & punch mother in front of them. 6-Year-Old: "I saw snipers on the roof ready to shoot our cars." 8-Year-Old: " I saw soldiers and was so scared... I started shaking. 14-Year-Old: "They put a gun to my face. Then point the gun at my mom's head and said they were going to 'blow her head off.'" After their mother was tackled —agents continued to kick her lying on the ground so hard they bruised her ribs and shoulder. The joint FBI & ICE raid was allegedly looking for an illegal gambling operation in Wilder, Idaho. #DemsUnited

Always good when the president of the United States is saying things like “we took the freedom of speech away”
Trump on flag burning: We took the freedom of speech away
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Flag burning in the U.S. is a Constitutionally-protected First Amendment right, over which the President has no authority. This issue has been litigated numerous times throughout history, culminating in the landmark Supreme Court case “Texas v. Johnson” in 1989: uscourts.gov/sites/default/…

Never in the history of our great country has a President threatened to jail a Governor for disagreeing with him. I stand with Governor Pritzker and hope all Americans do as well. This is authoritarian insanity. Donald Trump’s not fighting crime, he’s abusing power to attack opponents.
I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Radiohead’s Creep makes a great anthem for ICE agents. Many relevant lines. In particular the chorus: But I’m a creep I’m a weirdo What the hell am I doing here? I don’t belong here It would be a shame if they couldn’t get these words out of their heads. #AbolishICE
