Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

Epstein survivors just dropped a powerful message for Congress, and it hits like a warning: no more waiting, the truth is coming, ready or not.

America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

These senators who voted away access to healthcare for tens of millions of Americans really have the audacity to self righteously posture & pretend that they didn't just bow to the administration who has proven that they do not care if Americans starve or die from lack of healthcare access.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

This. Absolutely this. There is no act of resistance which is too small in this moment.
The Constitution is not self-enforcing.
The only thing holding our Republic together are our norms.
And the only thing that enforces those norms is The People.
No one is coming to save us.
It's entirely up to us.

No rights are safe any longer. No rights at all. Raise your hand if you think the Roberts Court is the worst SCOTUS ever. The only good things left are Justices Kagan, Sotomayor and Jackson.
