It's been 13 years since Sandy Hook.

These kids should be in college right now.

Instead, families are still mourning—and gun violence is still the #1 killer of kids in America.

Our children deserve leaders who do more to protect them.

Another shooting. The details will shift, the outrage will fade. That’s the danger. Repetition trains acceptance. A country doesn’t collapse at once…it gets conditioned to look away.

When the government admits it broke the law to imprison children, that is not a policy failure. It is a moral one.
ICE now admits that hundreds of children were held past the legal 20-day custody limit set to protect their safety.

Five were kept for 168 days.

Some faced unsafe conditions and went days without medical care.

This crosses a moral line.
About 400 immigrant children were detained longer than the recommended limit, ICE admits
Legal advocates concerned over the prolonged detention of immigrant children in federal custody are sounding the alarm before the federal court. U.S.

This representative should’ve been kicked right the fuck out of Congress. This country had better straighten up and find its moral center, or we will fall to ruin.
A sitting Republican Congressman in good standing said this, tweeted it out from his own account, and not a peep of outrage.

Imagine if he had said this about any other religious group. Why would it be tolerated? Why is this condoned?

Great letter. It says a lot about the piece of shit that Trump really is. He must be removed from office. Immediately.
Appreciate this letter from MN State Sen Jim Abler (R-Anoka) to POTUS

Impeachable. A member of the House should have a living Articles of Impeachment that lists every illegal act for posterity while pushing for actual impeachment.
This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

I hope that cunt Noem can be held accountable when Trump is gone. I want to see that fucking woman on trial.
Ramirez to Noem: "You lied on the record and you lied to members of this committee. You violated court orders by not turning around deportation flights bound for El Salvador where we know that hundreds of people under your leadership reported they were raped, beaten, and nearly died."

Fuck that woman and anything she does in the position she holds
The delta between what Biden did and how much anger he got for it and the absolute crickets Trump has gotten for making the student loan landscape *magnitudes worse than it was before* is absolutely one of the most enraging things about this entirely enraging era.
Congrats again to the people who continuously said Biden did nothing about student loans for four years! www.cnbc.com/2025/12/09/s...

a lot of this shit might make more sense if trump were going to live another decade or two in power, but he isn't going to. these people are all behaving as if trump at 79 years old is putin when he was 48 years old, and that there'll never be any negative consequences.

WTF? A sick country? No, a complacent one. This country needs a title wave of change. An uprising of people everywhere in this country to fight what’s going wrong.
This article opens with a 3-year-old forced to represent herself in court. We live in a fundamentally sick country.
There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.

I'll say again: we are oddly selective about the government services about which we will say, they operate at a loss.

We say Amtrak and the post office "lose money" but we never say highways, the court system, the Pentagon, etc lose money
The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Trump is a pathetic excuse for a human being and a steaming pile of shit with blonde hair
An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president.

Just fucking pathetic.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

Scum.
I had no idea how quickly racism and bigotry could fester from something out of a dark corner to being the cornerstone of the Murdoch media group. We will never be America again until shit like this is gone, root and stem.
And just like that, racism is adopted as the official line of the Rupert Murdoch media group.

He goes on to say "we aren’t going to pretend here that all cultures are of equal value or the same."

It’s the same thing we did when Trump was first in office. Separated families from their children. And this stupid fucking country put him back in charge. America no longer exists. There’s actually nothing to fight for.
Feels like "missing" is inaccurate. This child was kidnapped by the secret police and is now either a political prisoner or a trafficking victim.
