Smith: If we do not hold the most powerful people to the same standards, the rule of law, it can be catastrophic. Law should be applied equally. When you don’t hold criminals accountable, it signals as a society we are okay with those crimes.

Jack Smith: "Our assessment of the evidence is that [Trump] is the person most responsible for what happened on January 6. He caused what happened, it was foreseeable to him — and then, when it happened, he tried to exploit it."

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress gave $30 billion to ICE.

You know what also would have cost $30 billion? Extending those tax credits to help people afford health care this year.

We should repeal Trump’s money for ICE and lower costs instead.

Two members of Elon Musk's DOGE team working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with an advocacy group seeking to "overturn election results in certain states," and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls.

I was today years old when I found out Danes saved most of the country’s Jewish population from the Holocaust in one night.

“It was a living wall raised by the Danish people” and by ordinary people who never considered themselves part of the Danish Resistance.

Americans are realizing that unfettered federal power to detain and arrest is a very dangerous thing. I learned that lesson as a child when they put us into internment camps just for looking like the enemy. Don’t go further down this road.

Local elections are so important. Your Sheriff can decide if they engage with ICE (particularly in Democratic Governor states) so that race becomes very important. Primary elections happen soon. Do your research, attend townhalls. Learn their positions on your top issues. Thanks Amanda’s Mild Takes.

CBS (WGME) Portland, Maine is owned by Sinclair News. What Sinclair does is buy local news & force skewed “reporting.” Here’s an example of an article quoting “National Police Association” as though it represents police. Instead, NPA exists to quash protest against ICE. wgme.com/news/local/g...

On Jan 20 we walk out everywhere.

Resistance doesn’t need permission. It needs to confront power.

A year into Trump 2.0, billionaires and big oil win.
Midterms will limit MAGA so 2026 is the cash-out.

We refuse. On Jan 20, feminists pull labor, money, consent. See you in the streets. #FreeAmerica

I could not put this down such a compelling and compassionate read- addressing the problems you know exist but dont really grasp and feel until you are immersed in the stories. Everyone should read this.
After many years of reporting and writing, the day is finally here: THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US is out today.

I poured everything into this book, and I hope it ignites outrage at the fact that so many people in the richest nation on earth have been deprived of one of the most basic human necessities.

The children under the rubble part should be etched in every human’s mind for eternity. We so quickly get distracted from what Putin has done to Ukraine’s innocents. Each has a name and deserves remembrance.
I don't think attacking the Russian oil industry-the working engine of russia's war machine, is the same as burying 4-year-old girls under the rubble of their homes before Christmas, or plunging a city of a million people into cold and darkness in the dead of winter.
Q: Some are saying Russia's recent attacks show Putin isn't serious about peace

TRUMP: Ukraine has made some very strong attacks also. I don't say that negatively. There have been explosions in various parts of Russia. I don't think it came from the Congo. I don't think it came from the USA.
