Again, talking about ordinary government processes as if we're not living through a major political crisis creates the illusion of normalcy. It's counterproductive. We have a lawless, illegitimate president and we have to confront that fact, loud and often

We’re under siege. ICE just shot and killed a guy in Minneapolis. 7 guys surrounding and beating him and then multiple shots. Multiple. After he was still.

We need all the helpers helping right now. Take care of yourselves and your loved ones.

What do I want Democrats to do? If they can't call for the total abolition of ICE and the full prosecution of all its employees for crimes against humanity, what I want them to do is resign or retire.

to watch a man/admin whose far-right allies published a detailed plan over a year ago successfully consolidate power in the U.S. with a loyal-to-him secret police force rounding up people he hates and then still say “HE HAS NO PLAN” and have huge swathes of liberals agree…I’m so tired
There is a reason he’s forced to cause all of this chaos. He has NO PLAN. He funds no programs, no healthcare, no education, no lower prices, money coming in only supports more chaos. He envies other dictators. I challenge ANYONE to tell me just one single thing he’s accomplished? Discussion open

Good summary of “don’t give him what he wants” from relatively comfortable white liberals.

Of course he frames it that way but there wouldn’t be a problem if ICE wasn’t using disproportionate force against largely peaceful people.

He’s got a major chip on his shoulder.
Miller: "In MN, the insurrectionists are confronting our officers on the street. They're being arrested. This is a natl security priority. Arrests of insurrectionists are made every day, and each provide us an opportunity to learn about the network from a law enforcement & natl security standpoint"

Being in the US unlawfully is akin to jaywalking, not violence. There's no justification for ICE’s disproportionate violence against people who live their lives peacefully.

Think about that next time you roll through a stop sign. Breaking the law, yes. Deserves being deported over, no.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

As we resist tyranny, America gains solidarity.

As we gain solidarity, we build courage.

As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime.

Let's continue to build solidarity by peacefully opposing our tyrant-in-chief today at No Kings Day 2.0.

Kimmel did a cool little nod to Tonight Show host Jack Paar’s infamous line when he returned to Late Night after his own hiatus, “As I was saying before I was interrupted.”

Fun Easter Egg.

This is an excellent joke
We always knew Trump got onto Epstein's plane seven times. Looks like now we'll find out how many times Trump got off on Epstein's plane, and it was almost certainly in the teens.

Red alert: Armed National Gaurds in DC is a Federal takeover. Next up, Chicago, then Boston, then NYC, then LA.

When there is federalized control over our cities, and no voting, and Gerrymandered states, this isn’t a democracy anymore. abcnews.go.com/Politics/liv...
