Teens had guns drawn on them by ICE… what the hell!??? www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/1...

With my privilege I have no idea what this trauma will do to these kids. This is madness - no one, especially a child, deserves to be put through this!

ICE agents hold teens at gunpoint at Dutch Bros in Hillsboro

The group of teens told local police ICE stopped them twice on Oct. 3, part of a broader immigration enforcement surge across the Portland area.

The legislature has had months to fully fund Medicaid in North Carolina. If they can come back to manipulate election maps for partisan gain, why can’t they come back to work to secure your health care?

I called on @nationalgrid.bsky.social & @eversource.bsky.social to keep electricity & heat on for federal workers & contractors while they miss paychecks during the GOP shutdown.

Nat. Grid responded with a payment plan opportunity—call 1-800-322-3223 for more.

I'll keep fighting to support you.

This is such a great callout…

Does your Christian church have a plan to help the community when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November?

If not, you’re at the wrong church.

Pritzker on Fox: "He's challenging the integrity of the next election by sending troops into our cities. It isn't about fighting crime. He said he's going after the worst of the worst. That's not what they're doing. They are literally after black and brown people because of the color of their skin."

One year ago today, just before dawn, preparing for my first interview as a candidate for Mayor of New York City.

What we have built together over these past 12 months is nothing short of extraordinary.

12 more days to bring it home.

And surely all those *investors* will get itemized receipts to make sure he didn’t just pocket most of it too right?

No wonder taxpayers aren’t paying — less transparency/criming this way

BREAKING: The top federal prosecutor in Maryland has reportedly notified Pam Bondi that she sees no basis for Indicting Adam Schiff on mortgage fraud.

Who wants to bet that the prosecutor will be fired within days, and a new prosecutor will seek to indict Schiff regardless?

A freedom-loving people will not stand for the corruption and the power grabs we’re witnessing daily in our country. That's why millions of Americans took to the streets a few days ago, and it's why elections like the Virginia governor race will show the path to a better future a few days from now.

Q: “One of the [Jan. 6 rioters you pardoned] was charged with allegedly threatening to kill Hakeem Jeffries…Do you worry that your actions back on day one undermine what this task force is trying to accomplish?”

Trump: “No.”

ICE agents boxed in Illinois Rep. Hoan Huynh’s car in Chicago, pointed a gun at him and staff, and threatened to break windows after he warned locals about nearby ICE activity. This isn’t enforcement... it’s intimidation.

There is no possible democratic, constitutional interpretation of the presidency in which Donald Trump can unilaterally destroy the White House. Because he did, he sees himself as a monarch.
