From Alabama. Ohio resident. Dem political operative. I'm not overreacting. You're underreacting. Also, there will be husky pictures and my random adhd thoughts. If you're wondering, the husky is Oakley. He's a rescue who adopted me when he was 4.
This week, Leader @nickieantonio.bsky.social sent letters to Ohio’s U.S. Senators Husted and Moreno, urging them to vote against increasing federal funding of ICE through the appropriations bill being considered by Congress.
Tell your U.S. senators to vote NO on funding for ICE’s deadly operations.
BREAKING: Bovino is leaving MN: "Administration officials were left deeply frustrated this weekend over how Bovino and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem handled the fallout from the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis." www.cnn.com/us/live-news...
The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.
Protesters in Los Angeles projected an anti-ICE video onto the Twin Towers, an ICE-linked detention facility where the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department actively collaborates with ICE for deportation screenings.

The world sucks, but I'm spending the day with the happiest boy in the world, so it'll be okay.
Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.
Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."
This was followed almost immediately by a round of zoomies and a very public wrestling match. They are so cute when they are living their best lives! 😂
I'm all talk. I enjoyed that walk, too. 😂
To think that some people get labs, goldens, and shepherds. No, I love a dog breed as crazy as I am.

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.
He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.

Responding to Dr. Oz saying it’s cool robots are performing ultrasounds on pregnant women in Alabama—it’s terrifying that women are losing access to basic pregnancy care in a state that doesn’t allow them control over their own bodies
@drplantel.bsky.social
This has been the plan all along.
- Foment violence and chaos in the streets of MN
- Implement the Insurrection Act
- Declare Martial Law
- Suspend elections
"So I grieve for the lessening of you and of me. My heart aches, as I doubt yours feels anything. And I wonder endlessly about how we can go on with a world so divided and distorted. I wonder, with my faith so shaken by you, how I trust that we can ever be whole again."
Sanders: I am very worried that ICE is becoming a domestic army for Trump, and this goes way beyond the issue of immigration. It goes to the movement of this country toward authoritarianism and fear.
Using phony criminal charges to intimidate his opponents.
Deploying masked thugs to terrorize American cities.
Unilaterally threatening and bombing foreign countries.
Trump is a ruthless dictator, plain and simple.
Post from Amanda Gorman’s Instagram that says amandascgorman Minneapolis, Minnesota For Renee Nicole Good Killed by ICE. on January 7, 2026 by Amanda Gorman They say she is no more, That there her absence roars, Blood-blown like a rose. Iced wheels flinched & froze. Now, bare riot of candles, Dark fury of flowers, Pure howling of hymns. If for us she arose, Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief, Crouches our power, The howl where we begin, Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater Of the worst of what we've been. Change is only possible, & all the greater, When the labour & bitter anger of our neighbors Is moved by the love * better angels of our nature.
Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

Graphic with a blue background and large white text reading “DEAR AMERICAN FRIENDS.” Below is a screenshot of a post explaining that Canada does not have CBS, that a “60 Minutes” episode aired normally in Canada, and stating that Canadian networks are not subject to U.S. government interference. The post ends with “We’re not under a dictatorship. You are.”
This message hits hard.
Yes, he is. If he were my cousin, I've would be telling everyone. His family has a lot to be proud of.

My poor, handsome boy has a mom who loves Christmas lights and interrupting walks for pictures against his will. Keep him in your thoughts and prayers over the next month. He thinks it's torture.

It's always hard to pick a worst day politically, but today the president called for the death of members of the opposition party, and the administration decided that people were being too hard on the swastika
Still think we’re not there yet?
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.
Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.
