Love Philly
Philadelphia showed up on MLK Jr. Day.
From the Immigration Court at 9th & Market to ICE’s field office, the city marched in defiance: against ICE raids, against state violence, against the killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis.
Dr. King taught us: justice requires action. Philly answered.

Trump: I need to take over Greenland now, because if I don’t, Russia will.

Also Trump: Vladimir will you please join my Board of Peace?

One of the first things anyone learns about facial recognition is that it is often wrong and that it is biased. And yet ICE is using it all day every day to determine legal status & who to detain. And now we have a high-profile example of it being flat out wrong:

Minnesota is more than what you see on TV.

We’re a state that believes in the dignity of all people. We feed our kids and take care of our neighbors.

I’m proud of the ways Minnesotans are meeting the moment with decency and generosity - as we always do.

Are there really Trump supporters anymore? Or are they all just paid agitators? Even if they're too dumb to realize they will never get that check.

2026 is going to be a very dark year for US foreign policy, where everything that was built over many decades by leaders for collective security is torn apart by one madman, but only because people in his own party remain silent.

It has begun to occur to me, that if ICE, or the police, or any other agency paid by our tax dollars are not going to wear body cams, or remember to turn them on, citizens should begin wearing body cams just so we can all agree on the events as they transpire. Safety being the number one concern.

Cops at her front door, holding a phone to her face, asking if that's her Facebook account.

What the fuck are we doing here?
A woman left a comment on Facebook criticizing the Mayor of Miami Beach,.

The Mayor of Miami Beach then sent the cops to her home.

Imagine if all the photos and videos of masked agents tear gassing citizens were people holding the American flag, maybe the "red states" would decide they still want to be part of the union and speak up more?
I've heard others say it and I'm really feeling it too. We should definitely embrace the American flag as part of the resistance to fascism and the authoritarian government. It must stand as a symbol of decency and democracy, not what the GOP is trying to rebrand it as.

When protestors make noise during a sermon by a right-wing ICE pastor, DOJ announces a major investigation.
