Ilhan Omar’s home was raided today, weeks after border czar Tom Homan cited an “ongoing criminal investigation.” It reportedly involves immigration paperwork when she was a child. There is NOT an ongoing investigation of Homan taking $50,000 in an FBI bribery sting because Trump killed that probe.

There is absolutely no viable path forward for this country that doesn’t hinge on extreme accountability for everyone involved in this administration. They’re going to whine about politicization and credulous media types will echo them, but the thing is, they’ve committed tons of obvious crimes!

Ossoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

I think what frightens me most is that the sheer volume of things to be horrified by has become its own kind of protection for the people responsible. Nothing has to be explained or resolved becuase a story or a scandal or a tragedy only has to survive until the next thing happens in five minutes.

I know we’ve all made the same disgusted face looking at gas prices lately. What’s even more disgusting is Susan Collins enabling Trump’s reckless tariffs and unjustifiable wars—and leaving working Mainers to pay the price.

Judaism has taught us to mourn, to remember, and to repair. Three years after October 7th, we honor those who were lost, and we are reminded that we must all work toward building a future where Israelis and Palestinians live side by side in peace, security, and safety.

I was told Zohran Mamdani would instantly turn New York into a crime-ridden hellscape. Yet murders are down almost 20%, year over year. 203 people have been slain, about 22.5 per month. In 1990, that average was *251 per month.* NYC has never been this safe.

Donald Trump is not himself the disease of our politics. He’s just the worst symptom. The disease is the system that allows corporations to buy and sell politicians so they can rig it against the rest of us. Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All.

It's already estimated that the richest 1% alone evade $163 billion in taxes every year. But Trump gutted the IRS — including the unit tasked with auditing billionaires. The agency's audit revenue fell 35%. Now, Trump's IRS is not publishing data on unpaid taxes. See the problem?

The Evanston RoundTable in my Chicago suburb interviewed 2 people who saw ICE agents beat up a citizen and leave him lying on the ground last weekend. One witness said the man “was screaming ‘I'm a U.S. citizen. Leave me alone.’” Another witness said the feds told an “absolute lie” about the case.
