If I were a head of state, I would think setting a precedent that assassination is a legitimate tool of state competition would be unwise

Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote:

"The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same."

They're calling HRT a "sex-rejecting procedure" now. I guess that means my wife gives me HRT every night!

Amazonโ€™s Promotion of โ€˜Melaniaโ€™ Has Critics Questioning Its Motives

โ€œThis has to be the most expensive documentary ever made that didnโ€™t involve music licensing,โ€ said Ted Hope, who worked at Amazon from 2015 to 2020 and was instrumental in starting the companyโ€™s film division. โ€œHow can it not be equated with currying favor or an outright bribe?โ€

A still from a cell phone video of a crowd at an anti-ICE demonstration in Chicago. I'm in the center of the frame, facing away from the camera, wearing a white coat and tan winter hat.

When Donald Trump says who he really is, believe him.

He's raising your grocery prices.
He's violating your civil rights.
He's rolling back your health care.
He's taking away your education.

It's past time to stand up, push back, and be loud for America.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

ICE murdered Renรฉe Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Greg Bovino Loses His Job The Border Patrol chief has been ousted from his role as โ€œcommander at large,โ€ and will return to El Centro.

Whoโ€™s next?

One demotion cannot detract from accountability.

Greg Bovino and Trumpโ€™s agents must still be held responsible for the killings and the damage theyโ€™ve done to America.

Here's the thing, Greg โ€” free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

America's largest labor movement calls for ICE to leave Minnesota before 'anyone else is hurt or killed' A federal immigration agent shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti, a US citizen, in Minneapolis on Saturday. He was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital.

Just one day after tens of thousands of Minnesotans peacefully protested ICEโ€™s operations, our AFGE union brother Alex Jeffrey Pretti was killed by federal agents.

ICE must immediately leave Minnesota before anyone else is hurt or killed.

It's undeniable: MAGA is tightening its grip in 2026. People are engaging in direct action, mutual aid, and holding corporations accountable in a way some of us were never formally taught. Tomorrow, we change that. bit.ly/mvmtstrong

Good afternoon from downtown Chicago, where despite heavy snowfall, thousands have gathered for an anti-ICE/CBP demonstration in solidarity with the Twin Cities. More are still streaming in.

Lt. Illinois Gov. Juliana Stratton just addressed the crowd, and called for ICE to be abolished.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA
