We must remake the world such that the International Criminal Court has much more muscle – including jurisdiction over American and Russian politicians.

Weekly gratitude practice. What's everyone grateful for?

My thanks to everyone who protested on Tuesday as ICE, aided by the Saint Paul police, abducted two people from their home. We did not stop it, but we witnessed it.

It was awful. I got a little bit pepper sprayed. I am ready to do it again.

The three year old responds accordingly...
The White House launched a page on its website, titled the “Hall of Shame,” devoted to naming and shaming media outlets and reporters that publish stories Trump disagrees with.

“Misleading. Biased. Exposed,” the site reads.

It’s unacceptable that there are any servicemembers experiencing food insecurity. I’m pushing Congress to take concrete action to address military hunger in this year’s NDAA because it is our duty to take care of the men and women who sacrifice so much to serve their country.

The Banana Republicans will buddy up with rich Persian Gulf petrol-states but treat those from other Islamic nations as the scum of the earth when they are involved in an incident when people are hurt or killed.

And this is without all the facts of this particular incident not being known.
Republicans are dramatically ramping up their anti-immigration rhetoric after the shooting of two National Guard members in D.C. by a suspect who is an Afghan national, with some calling to end Muslim immigration entirely and "deport every single Islamist."

Republicans seek severe immigration crackdown over D.C. shooting: "Deport them all. Now."
"We must IMMEDIATELY BAN all ISLAM immigrants and DEPORT every single Islamist," said one Republican senator.

Just like Trump's assassination attempt, it's all a fucking lie!
They didn't want any survivors, they didn't want any witnesses.

It's very simple: Hegseth committed a war crime.
