🚨 I've obtained a list of secret watchlists the Department of Homeland Security uses to keep tabs on American citizens www.kenklippenstein.com/p/ices-secre...
Exclusive: ICE's Secret Watchlists of Americans

Many immigrants are afraid to leave their homes — let alone go to work — as masked ICE agents escalate their operations in Maine. But at apparel manufacturer American Roots in Westbrook, staff and community volunteers are trying to protect immigrant workers by standing watch. https://bit.ly/3YVOyJN
Maine community members form a human wall to keep local workers safe from ICE

This is a very bad look for Shaheen. The “heckler” is Heath Howard, who happens to be running for the Dem nomination for NH-01, which is the same district her daughter Stefany is running in. Heath also happens to be disabled so her vote may impact him personally.
"You look at our record, and you tell me what you've done to protect the healthcare of Americans, and it's not even close to what we've done," Sen. Shaheen said.
And he is committed to overturning Citizens United to get big money out of our politics. Join us in supporting Heath Howard for Congress! He will fight for the people, not the powerful! secure.actblue.com/donate/heath...
Heath Howard is 100% AIPAC-Free!
Support Heath's campaign for Congress!

ICE arrested press tonight. They threw a tear gas canister into the press last week. This was not an accident. Release Steve Held.
NEW — Video posted to social media shows Unraveled Press co-founder Steve Held being detained by federal agents outside the Broadview immigration facility earlier this evening. A collection of Chicago newsrooms is calling for his immediate release. thetriibe.com/2025/09/chic...
Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target
So why is Senator Collins protecting pedophiles and abusers like Jeffrey Epstein and his associates? Whose bidding is she doing? Today, I am publicly calling on Senator Collins to answer these questions.
I spent years researching and trying to explain the imperial boomerang to people and he just … tweeted this out
Just Trump declaring war on a US city, a normal Saturday
From a French Revolution museum exhibit in Paris… they wore jewelry with guillotines… ahahaha This is a pair of guillotine earrings with the heads of Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI.
THEY F*CKING TOOK THE ICE CREAM MAN! The photo says it all. Masked ICE goons grabbed Enrique Lozano in front of a Culver City, CA church. A Community Coalition helped the family identify the abandoned cart, locate his belongings. For 20 years, loved in the community. "Hardened criminals" - my ass.
Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list. I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants. Inaction is complicity.
On Pentecost, Pope Leo calls for a church that “opens the borders between peoples and breaks down the barriers between class and race;” criticizes an “exclusionary mindset that, tragically, we now see emerging also in political nationalisms.” 🔥 🔥 🔥 www.vatican.va/content/leo-...
Imagine putting on all this tactical gear and latching onto a military assault vehicle so you can storm a minimall on Sepulveda and apprehend a line cook at family restaurant.
Heavily-armed DHS paramilitary forces in military vehicles fired dozens of stun grenades at a crowd of onlookers today in Los Angeles.

Thanks to Nathan Fielder I’m sitting at the airport, staring down the pilot of this flight who is sitting alone eating his sandwich.
Yesterday’s town hall in Stratham, NH hosted by @repchrispappas.bsky.social. 1k+ angry, passionate constituents, with many more outside, unable to get in. Lots of “business as usual” messaging, and no real call to action for his constituents. #nh #nhpoli
good thing ALLLL of maggie hassan's phone lines are currently just playing hold music indefinitely. I love democracy!

“The left-wing creator ecosystem’s complete detachment from cultural moments reveals liberals' total incapacity to engage and mobilize people around influential narratives.” @taylorlorenz.bsky.social writes on the rise in conservative creators threatening the support around the #MeToo movement.
some helpful reminders: -not all jews support israel -criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic -being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas -arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment -violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad
I am mired in terrifying news every day and this manages to stand out.
“He has a green card,” an agent apparently said on the phone, confused by the matter. But then after a moment, the agent claimed that the State Department had “revoked that too.”
I’m pretty sure this is what voters want from their elected officials www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...
