A cartoon about my father from the 1960s. At the time he was assassinated, a poll reflected that he was one of the most hated men in the United States. Today, his message has been distorted by many who would have hated him then, but evoke him now to deter justice and truth.

This is some vile stuff. And these aren't teenagers. Many are Republican staffers. At least one works for Trump. "Epithets like “faggot,” “retarded” and “n--ga” appeared more than 251 times combined."

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican

She's a politician, running for Congress. She attended a protest against ICE. ICE brutalized her, tear gassed her, body slammed her to the ground. And now *she's* been arrested for 'hindering' ICE. She faces eight years in prison. This is fascism. msnbc.com/msnbc/news/kat…

I am calling for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agent that shot and killed Renee Good. I am also calling on Congress to support my bill with Jasmine Crockett to force ICE agents to wear body cameras, not wear masks, have visible identification, and ensure ICE has independent

The fact that the U.S. Constitution doesn’t empower Americans to organize an election to recall/remove the President, but instead requires us to endure 4 years of madness for the next election or rely on the President’s own cabinet (25th amendment) or the House + 67 Senators to

A man was choked so hard that his blood vessels burst in his eyelids and his death was ruled a homicide. This is a rogue agency. It needs to be torn down and replaced with a new federal agency that respects human and constitutional rights and has civil rights oversight.

Take a moment to look at the inhumanity captured in this extraordinary photo running on the front page of tonight's Minneapolis The Minnesota Star Tribune. It shows federal immigration agents immobilizing a protester on the ground and spraying chemical irritant directly into his face. The

They will look you dead in the face and say J6 rioters with guns, poles, bats, etc were patriots, but an ER Nurse with a camera and a registered firearm was a domestic terrorist.

Stephen Miller is the architect of the greatest and most systematic violation of the civil rights and constitutional liberties of Americans in our era. This country isn’t safe until he’s held accountable and punished to the fullest extent of the law for his crimes.

Joe Scarborough on the Republican shutdown: “You want to run Venezuela, but you can’t run Laguardia? You want to change governments in Iran, but you can’t even make Houston’s airport work? You want to take over Greenland, and yet you can’t even make Atlanta Hartsfield function?”
