There are so many reasons to hate the Patriots. But for me, it starts and ends with the ICE collaborators they're enriching.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

ICE was flawed from day one... born out of post-9/11 fear and built on policies that blurred national security with domestic control. Some systems don’t need reform. They need to be abolished.

We stand with our brothers and sisters at the NDP Black Caucus, the Obamas, and African Americans nationwide. What a shameful display of racism and vile behavior by Donald Trump and those who enable him. #NebDems

The latest in the Gov. Pillen controversy involving a $2.5 million no-bid contract issued to a lobby friend. Nebraska Auditor was having none of it. The Governor has offered 3 different reasons why the funds were given.

The corruption is real.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Donald Trump is:

- Openly racist
- Covering up evidence he may have sexually abused children
- Directly responsible for the murder of US citizens by masked agents of the state
- Openly looting the treasury and taking bribes from foreign leaders
- Polling at 38% amongst the American people

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.

They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.

Hearing him loud and clear.
This is how Sen. Ron Wyden clues the public into activity that he finds extremely alarming. He does a press release about a letter he sent to the director of the CIA that basically says, 'I want to make sure you saw the classified letter I sent early today.' www.wyden.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Dear Schumer and Jeffries,
Y’all need to step out of your bubble and read the room.
We don’t want to “reform” ICE.
We want to defund them and send them to jail for crimes against humanity.

WTF are y’all talking about?

I don't say this often but: I'm so proud to be a climate and environment reporter. We cover an issue that is vitally important to humanity and the natural world. 14 of my climate colleagues at the Post were laid off today and I'm devastated.
