Of course, Kristi Noem deserved to be fired. But rather than spend energy celebrating this Trump setback, let's recognize that the disaster of today’s DHS runs much deeper than the (former) Secretary's incompetence - and keep stepping up the political pressure.
You are not alone. I just want her to be representing us somewhere somehow. We need her
Don't let the American government decide what books you and your family are allowed to read.

Done and for you of course
Done! And for you of course
That's class and clearly puts the spotlight where it belongs
Schiff: I've not missed the State of the Union in the 25 years I've been in Congress, but we have never had a president violate the constitution every day with seeming impunity.
We can't treat this as some new normal, so I'm here boycotting...
No, go after them because they're bad for society, like arsenic in the water.
A billion dollars is the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work to prevent the acquisition of the former with the same urgency and ruthlessness we use to prevent the acquisition of the latter.
How are we claiming Rome and Greece. I think they missed a few civilizations in there.
“.. We could spend the whole day reacting to every buffoonish spectacle coming out of the White House, but that's exactly what they want: for us to lose focus …
Don't be distracted by the noise; watch what they are doing to your rights while you stare at the screen.”
And in the meantime he's reposting it in order to spread it further. And what does he mean praying it's fake of course it's fake it's AI. I guess what he means by fake is Trump didn't post it.
A UAE investor secretly gave Trump $187 million and his top Middle East envoy $31 million. And then Trump gave that investor access to sensitive defense technology that broke decades of national security precedent.
Brazen, open corruption. And we shouldn't pretend it's normal.
(around an image of a masked ICE agent holding a gun) Republicans "One Big Beautiful Bill' nearly tripled funding for ICE. That money came from your benefits: paid for by cuts to reproductive health care paid for by cuts to Medicare & Medicaid paid for by cuts to SNAP paid for by cuts to clean energy projects paid for by cuts to obesity prevention paid for by cuts to disaster response paid for by cuts to energy tax credits
Lady Gaga has put out a gorgeous anthem for Minneapolis.

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.
Let's hope they don't capitulate again.
In the early 1930s the SA was roughing people up, creating chaos in neighborhoods, seeking to terrorize with the occasional killing. By the late 1930s it had been supplanted by the SS, which was much better trained.
I really need Democratic lawmakers to understand that we're fed up with them simply posting on social media "this has to stop" without calling for specific actions to make it stop.
We know this needs to stop. We elected you. Tell us what needs to be done to make it stop.
I wrote a short piece on my trip to Texas and how it confirmed for me why we can’t fund this version of ICE.
The Department of Homeland Security is lawless. We need to demand reforms.
JACK SMITH: “I have seen how the rule of law can erode. My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it.”
I love this song so much: 🎵 Now it's making sense to me. 🎵

An extraordinarily creative way to say that Trump is building a 350 million bunker funded by his elite tech friends for when shit hits the fan.
Who are these people who approve?
No, it would be the story of how much they loved him and they wanted to give it to him. Because it's always all about him.

Seven Dem senators voted to confirm a Trump judicial nominee today, and I really do not think I'm asking for much when I say that Democrats should not be doing favors for a president whose masked thugs murdered a woman in the streets 24 hours ago www.senate.gov/legislative/...
How many claims do you need to start giving credence. Believe women
The American College Theatre Festival has suspended its long-standing affiliation with the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, citing a misalignment of values, while confirming its national and regional programs will continue
No he's not. It is named by law
I just came out of the briefing with Sec. Rubio and Sec. Hegseth on the military strikes in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific. Here's what I learned.
Bottom line: there is no legal or national security justification for what they're doing. Not even close.
