ICE detained Julio Noriega, a 54 year-old US citizen who was born in Chicago, for over 10 hours on January 31st. He was walking around "Berwyn, Illinois, handing out his resume to local businesses." They didn't show him a warrant. They didn't give him paperwork. And he's now suing.

If Trump follows through with his Greenland, Denmark, Gaza, Mexico or Iran warmongering and imperialism every US soldier should resign in protest. “Just following orders” doesn’t cut it.

If you’re wondering if you’re in a constitutional crisis and that the republic could collapse at any moment, you are.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk believe their power is unchecked and unaccountable to Congress and the courts. The scary thing is at this point I’m not sure they’re wrong.

For all federal employees: Before you are locked out of your systems, ensure you have copies of unclassified performance appraisals, awards & other relevant personnel docs. If you have access to your office, grab your more important personal items sooner rather than later.

I think countries around the world should levy tariffs specifically on Tesla in response to US tariffs, as well as banning Twitter as a national security threat driving a wedge between our co-dictators may be the most effective thing they can do

Sen. Tina Smith: Millions of federal workers got a memo—“Resign by Feb 6, and we’ll pay your salary through Sept.” That’s almost certainly illegal. A VA worker told me, “I’ve devoted my life to veterans. If I take this, will I get paid? If I don’t, will they see me as an enemy?”

Ive said this before. Unions have a moment in time to create parallel, Non Profit Trust or Associated Health Plans and offer them to small to medium size businesses. Unions can negotiate far better than SMBs or associations . Imagine if millions got their healthcare from unions ? Thoughts ?

I'll summarize the whole podcast genre: " If you are entertaining, people will listen to you and buy what you are selling. Including politics " They will not check your background, your education or fact check you It's a podcast. They are trying to kill time. Entertainment sells.

TV once shaped elections, but we are now in a new Digital Media age—and, as Tristan Snell explains, that's a major reason Trump won in 2024. In a guest piece for The Big Picture, Snell unpacks how the digital media revolution reshaped politics and why Democrats must evolve to succeed moving forward.
