As Palestinians cling to a fragile ceasefire after suffering horrific genocide, I ask those who remained silent and complicit for the last two years—was it worth it?

Was it worth it to know this is how history, your children, your descendants, will remember you?

“I think about the October 6, 2023 headline which read, ‘2023 is deadliest year for Palestinian children say human rights groups,’ citing the dozens of children murdered by the Israeli military.”

Yeah I'm not sure why they see that as a flex...especially as Biden's own team now admits that Biden never pressured Netanyahu to accept a ceasefire.

A new report of crime data shows that ICE impersonation cases have reached record highs in 2025—more than the number of such cases in the last 4 Presidential admins COMBINED.

Democratic Governors need to order their State police to arrest alleged ICE fascists who conceal their identities. Period.

Hamas leadership just announced they killed 27 people in broad daylight because—wait, my mistake.

Trump announces he's drone killed 27 Venezuelans on boats, claiming without evidence that they were "narcoterrorists," & refusing to answer what gives him authority.

He WILL deploy this on US citizens

Republicans: Shooting Christian pastors is OK, Due process is overrated, & bombing Venezuelan boats is good!

Young Republicans: We love H*tler, we should gas everyone who doesn't support us

Democrats: No Kings, No H*tler

Republicans: See that?? Democrats keep escalating the political rhetoric.

Qasim Rashid, Esq. @qasimrashid.com · 1d

ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.

This anonymous denial of due process is deadly.

Being anti-Trump is the lowest possible bar. Meanwhile she's anti-labor union, anti-tribal sovereignty, and has been wholly silent on genocide funded by our tax dollars. That's great that she's anti-Trump. That alone doesn't win elections.

Me after seeing the leaked texts of young Republicans *in 2025* praising Hitler & calling to gas all of us.

The only thing I’m more (not) shocked by is this will not in any way shame them, further empower them.

Remember this next time they pretend to be offended that anyone calls them Nazis. Smh.

If a random guy in a mask grabbed someone and threw them in a vehicle—we'd call that a kidnapping. Until an alleged ICE agent identifies themselves, that's what this is.

For all we know they're a rapist murderer stalker looking for their next victim. Indefensible. Dem leadership must act NOW.

If you want to know what kind of Senator Janet Mills might be, remember that she's running as Chuck Schumer's preferred candidate and with his full backing.

Should she win, we can expect more strongly worded letters, hoping really hard for Trump to do the right thing, and AIPAC calling the shots.

So to be sure I understand the MAGA position on this:
•Saying Happy Holidays = War on Christmas
•No teacher led prayer in public schools = War on Jesus
•No 10 Commandments on Courthouse = War on Christianity
•Shooting Christian Pastor in the head = Not Crossing The Line

Got it.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.
