Like you, I’ve spent a lot of time tracking AI’s features and foibles. And somewhat to my surprise, I find that I’ve become something of a fan! Not unconditionally, but a fan nonetheless. At first, I was fascinated by the technology but frustrated that we were…

At first, I was fascinated by the technology but frustrated that we were spending so much time worrying about its impact on our jobs and lives, rather than figuring out whether it has actual value in a governance context.

It really is as simple as that.
Call your senators and representatives. 1 202 224 3121. Say the name of the person you want to leave a message for and tell them to slash or eliminate ICE and CBP funding. It can still be done. This is simply Trumps private army. We solve a big problem doing this.

Thank you @katherineclarkdma.bsky.social for making an unannounced visit to the ICE facility in Burlington, MA. ICE's continued denial of entry is criminal and needs to stop.

@warren.senate.gov @edmarkey.bsky.social When can we expect to see you there?

This is exactly right. Bullies can't stand it when you don't physically fight back.
No matter what city ICE chooses next, Minnesota showed how the people can turn back any invasion with sustained, widespread, nonviolent, civil resistance.

When we're united, the people are more powerful than any occupying force.

really fucking important to realize that greg bovino is getting fired not in spite of there being no riots, but because there were no riots

Including/especially the owners of the buildings that house the ICE detainees!
Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS.

Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies.

AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS.

Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

It’s right up there with “I was just following orders “
“Just doing their jobs” has been the excuse of cowards for a very long time.

As a New Yorker by upbringing, I can confidently say I’ve been feeling that way for a lot longer than that
The way Europe is feeling and expressing their disgust and anger at Trump is how some of us have felt for 10 years and then 5 years again, he is not new. he is awful.

I wish these lying dogs would sleep
The lying never stops in this administration.

In the immortal words of Nancy Reagan: Just Say No
AOC: They need 10 Democratic votes in the Senate to pass, continued unfettered ICE funding with no guardrails. Regardless of where you are in the Democratic party, this moment proves that the status quo cannot stand

I would implore my Democratic colleagues in the senate to vote no
January 25, 2026 at 4:07 AM
This is what I’m saying
It's really too bad the United States Congress no longer exists.
January 25, 2026 at 4:02 AM
Yes, this.
Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

We must not let this be normalized, even if it becomes more commonplace - which it will
Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.

This is personal — to every one of us.
January 25, 2026 at 3:52 AM
Yes!

Do not trust a single story coming out of the DHS.

In the words of ICE Barbie Noem, "you can't trust the government."

Ironic message to those who voted for the DHS spending bill: You're fired!
The reason rank and file Dems are pissed at their party is because their party doesn't lead in key moments. The good news is it's primary season, and now's when we get to demand better leadership. I recommend everybody adopt 1 or 2 DINOs and dedicate yourself to replacing them with Dems who fight.
DHS spending bill passed 220-207

7 Democrats voted in favor:
Henry Cuellar
Don Davis
Laura Gilles
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Jared Golden
Vicente Gonzalez
Tom Suozzi

Massie voted No
Andy Harris didn't vote

Might not have passed if every Democrat voted No, but leadership wasn't whipping them to do so

Does this look like the worst of the worst to you? I didn't think so.

It seems his ability to count mirrors his knowledge of geography ...
"The farmers have been with me all three terms" -- Trump just claimed on Air Force One that he's on his third term so, uh, he might be joking about a fourth one
