Damn it! Please, I am begging you folks to care about someone besides yourself. This is an evil, racist and corrupt regime. All I am asking is for you to vote them out in November. This abuse is wrong!🤬 #IamMe

A person detained by ICE stopped eating to protest conditions inside the facility where he was being held.According to ICE’s own health records,ICE responded by restraining him & subjecting him to forced urinary catheterization, forced hydration, &involuntary blood draws without his consent!

Enjoying the journey & thinking...if you are unable to recognize the greatness of President Obama, or refuse to see the cruelty, corruption and incompetence of the orange felon, you're deceiving yourself and living a lie. You're also probably a racist and not a good person.😕 #IamMe #wednesdaymorning

Republicans just voted to slash Medicare benefits that seniors rely on every single day. They call it “reform.” Patients will call it higher costs, fewer doctors, and longer waits. This isn’t abstract. It’s your parents’ meds. Your grandparents’ care. #RepublicanMedicareCuts

Political cartoon by @billbramhall.bsky.social.

Republicans promised they wouldn’t touch Medicare. Then they passed a bill that triggers tens of billions in cuts. Seniors will feel it in higher costs, fewer providers, and harder choices between medicine and rent. Broken promises have consequences. #RepublicanMedicareCuts

My podcast today travels to a lonely Texas highway in 1980, where three people saw a strange object hovering above the road. They described intense heat, mysterious military helicopters, and painful illnesses that changed their lives forever. Investigators still can’t agree on what they experienced.

Roy Altman owes his federal judgeship to Donald Trump. He read the account agreement, shrugged, and threw the family's lawsuit in the bin. 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/twelve-day...

While Washington argued about trade policy, Hochul said the quiet part: this is a tax on groceries and building materials. New York is one of 25 states in court over it. 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/twelve-day...

Letitia James has beaten Trump in court so many times it's practically a hobby. She's back for the tariffs, and she's already won this one once. 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/twelve-day...

A nurse, a professor, and a grandmother walks up to an ICE detention center. There's no punchline. She's been doing it twice a month for over a year, for free. 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/twelve-day...

Somewhere in a bank office in February 2021, a person sat down and typed the words "Account Closure Recommendation: Donald J. Trump." That memo exists. Its table of contents is public. Nobody looked, until now 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/twelve-day...

Twelve Days Before Trump’s Bank Cut Him Off, Somebody Wrote A Memo

Capital One hasn’t released it. The Trumps’ own lawyers described it in a filing nobody read. Plus 25 states in court over the tariffs, and the nurse ICE picked the wrong fight with.
