Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one.

"The crowd chants 'Don’t take the mother!' over and over again as the daughter keeps trying to get back on the hood of the car. More Worcester cops arrive, all helping the ICE agents carry out their rotten senseless work."

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.
Newsom: This is serious. And what happened yesterday was not very serious—and that was this so-called deal with the UK that actually hurts American automobile manufacturers.
Don’t take my word for it—GM and others came out with a statement
Michelle was called a tyrant for promoting health. Ivanka gets a press release and praise. Tell me again how this isn’t about race and politics?
Not only are they ignoring climate change—they’re trying to cover up the cost. Shutting down NOAA’s disaster tracking so we can’t see the BILLIONS it’s costing us? This ain’t solving the crisis—it’s hiding it.
US will stop tracking the costs of extreme weather fueled by climate change

Buttigieg: Like I love A1 steak sauce, but A1 steak sauce is not one of the most important things confronting humanity right now. Artificial intelligence is. And somebody who doesn't understand that probably should not be leading an important federal agency.
The Washington Post bragging about Pulitzer winner Ann Telnaes, the political cartoonist who left the Post because it had turned into an anti-journalism partisan rag, is one of the most shameless examples of misplaced self-congratulations in recent memory.

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack.
I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

Warnock: Georgia officials said they were sorry but their hands were tied, you can’t vote the first weekend of the runoff after the holiday so I decided to untie them, I sued them. And I won… They appealed asking for emergency relief. Emergency relief from what? People voting?
Love to see it !!!
When A President Isn’t A Criminal Propped Up By A Corrupt Supreme Court…
The Republicans aren’t listening to anybody but Trump. They know how detrimental these cuts will be to their constituents but instead of developing a backbone, standing up to Trump, & doing what’s right—they’re too scared, too spineless, & too sold out to fight for the folks they represent.
