Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".

"Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

Sadly 1000% correct
He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Today is the 5-year anniversary of a day in American history that will live in infamy forever and should have marked the immediate end of the political career and public life of Donald J. Trump

Our descendants will rightly wonder why he was president in 2026 instead of in a cage

My god - is Tom Clancy writing this breathless account by the General?

Embarrassing.

So Trump says now the US will “run Venezuela”.

I guess Canada and Greenland are off the hook for being #51.

I’m just spitballing here but…. The Orange Asshat has been in a frenzy lately, ordering things to be named after him - coins, Kennedy Center, Ballroom, and now battleships.

You don’t suppose a doctor - a REAL ONE - has told him he’s living on borrowed time & he wants to stamp his name far & wide??

Absolutely sickening. Noem and ICE need to be prosecuted for their horrible crimes.

It’s a good thing Trump wasn’t president in 1945 or he would have named the atomic bombs after himself. Come to think of it though, one was named “Fat Man”….

So unemployment numbers are creeping up - what a surprise. What I suspect is that the numbers are far worse but the Trumpkins are terrified of being the messenger bearing bad news. I have zero confidence in any stats coming out of a Gov that boasts”900% price cuts on drugs” #trump #economy

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

With Trump's dystopian fantasy rants about Portland, it's time to focus on ONE main topic. Trump's mental decline. CNN, MSNBC and all responsible media outlets should begin a 24/7 blitz of programming with doctors, mental health experts, legal experts about removing him from office.

The new iOS has a “Delete and stop” feature that will send a stop message and delete the thread all at once. I’m this >< close to just blocking anything that comes from actblue at this point.

I will donate again when they pose some real resistance. Til then, miss me with the urgent pleas.

I’m putting together a rescue care package of KIND Bars and Vitamin Water for my brother, currently under siege in the south hills overlooking that hellscape known as Portland, Oregon. Hm - maybe I’ll throw in a Kevlar bandana and some Pinot Noir.

I wonder what percentage of Dems truly thought that the GOP would enact the wretched Project 2025?

I thought it was a concern - but far too radical to implement.

This cretin has the chance to bury Trump. I couldn’t hate this fucker any more than I do.

I think she meant: “Meet again”. Trump was a participant.
Epstein survivor: "Mr President Donald J Trump, I am a registered Republican -- not that that matters, because this is not political. However, I cordially invite you to the Capitol to meet me in person so you can understand this is not a hoax."

NOT progressive here, but there is no trust I have left in our current Dem leadership. If Dem leadership counts on we will go out and vote blue just because this necrotic-decomponsing-almost dead convicted felon thug has angered us enough to go vote for Dems out of anger, tell them to think twice.
