The only insurrection act we need to pay attention to is the ongoing one that started J6, and is being perpetrated out of our own WH by criminals who kill moms, fishermen, nurses, us. #WETHEPEOPLE #THISISUNACCEPTABLE

There is no way in hell the United States under the Trump regime can host the World Cup in a few months.

They are murdering citizens in broad daylight, threatening war against NATO, and lawlessly kidnapping children and foreign heads of state.

The world has to organize a boycott. It’s not safe.

As it happens, Alex Pretti apparently had a carry permit. THAT DOESN'T MATTER, because he *didn't draw a gun.* Even had he possessed an illegal gun, this would still be murder. His alleged gun is a DHS red herring; it doesn't matter. We do not need to debate it one way or other.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

My Democratic colleagues & I just introduced an impeachment resolution for Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

Her inhumane approach to immigration is literally killing Americans. ICE must be held accountable.

Her job is to destroy and do harm. Thank you @kevinmullin.house.gov this is the only appropriate response.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003

when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

Every observer must understand that their lives could be forfeit in an instant.

It seems that most observers of these actions still labor under the impression (granted, from what we were told that America was) that these troops will not harm us.

They can, and if they feel threatened, they will.

Fuck ICE indeed. Fuck DJT. Fuck murderous Miller. They are a stain on the aspirations of America. Thank you Dave Matthews.

ICE’s killing of Renee Good, a mother of three, was caused by the Trump Administration’s intentionally inhumane & chaotic deployments. Kristi Noem is dangerously unfit for the dire responsibility of DHS Secretary & should be impeached immediately. kevinmullin.house.gov/2026/01/08/r...

Remember Kavanaugh’s bellicose assertion during his *confirmation hearing” that Dr. Ford’s testimony was a calculated political hit? There was a calculated political hit alright, it just wasn’t her.
Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.
