ICE out of Minnesota and everywhere else. When our institutions fail us, we hold each other strong. And we will hold the regime accountable.

NEWS: Trump personally ordered $10 million in Homeland Security money spent on TV ads promoting himself, and only offered to have his super PAC pay once he got caught. Treating the federal treasury like a personal slush fund isn't a mistake you fix with a refund—it's a crime you get prosecuted for.

very tired of being told it is the responsibility of urban democratic voters never to risk possibly maybe by chance seeming less than respectful of rural red state life and then watching thousands in nebraska cheer on the president joking about a nuclear strike on me and millions of my neighbors

Trump: "With the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay ... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

The only thing I found more unsettling was that they were given credit for none of their achievements or actions, as it was all god’s plan and for god’s glory. It was weirdly nihilistic. And I can see how it would lead to cognitive dissonance on Trump’s bad acts as well.

All of this. I have conservative Evangelical family (I am neither), and when I recently attended my cousin’s graduation from an Evangelical K-12 school, the speaker was so full of this that I finally understood where that stubborn faith in Trump originates.
