The rise in the Savannah Bananas popularity and the country’s descent into fascism are linked, I just can’t prove it

More than 140 officers were injured defending the Capitol on January 6th. They waited six years for the plaque in their honor to be hung in the Capitol. They watched as Donald Trump pardoned every single one of their assailants. Some of them can no longer work and cannot even get disability benefits. But Donald Trump has set aside nearly $2 BILLION of your taxpayer money to pay the criminals who assaulted them. It’s a punch in the face to every police officer in this country who puts his or her life on the line to protect us. I support Officers Daniel Hodges and Harry Dunn in their lawsuit to stop this outrageous scheme.

NESTERAK: President Trump has granted clemency to numerous individuals who have stolen hundreds of millions in Medicaid funds. Can we expect any of these folks to be shown the same mercy? McDONALD: I'll take a different question

Just in case you thought people voted based on actual policy results: 77.7% of farmers voted for Trump in 2024.

The PBS NewsHour has documented the Trump family's unprecedented conflicts of interest. Jared Kushner, a 'volunteer' with no official position, has $6 billion in assets from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar-the same governments he is negotiating with on Middle East peace. Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump have invested in drone companies that are now competing for Pentagon contracts in the war their father started. Forbes estimated that Eric and Don Jr., they were worth about $40, $50 million each before the 2024 election. About a year later, Eric at $400 million and Donald Trump Jr. at about $300 million. They're using war and diplomacy to enrich themselves

•The U.S. Senate may hold a floor vote TODAY which would overturn a 20-year moratorium on sulfide-ore copper mining on 225,000 acres of Superior National Forest land in the watershed of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) Wilderness in northern Minnesota. The Boundary Waters is the most visited Wilderness in the United States.  🛶 Enjoying the Minnesotan/Canadian wilderness by canoe or other lesser watercraft is one of our nations greatest available pastimes, and one I have personally enjoyed my entire life. We must protect these public lands from the rapacious capitalists threatening to turn them into a poisoned wasteland. •This vote in Congress would open the door to copper mining at the headwaters of this entire ecosystem. This kind of mining produces toxic pollution, including acid runoff and heavy metals, that can contaminate nearby waters. •The Boundary Waters supports a major outdoor economy that sustains thousands of jobs and generates over a billion dollars a year - built on clean water and intact public lands. But this vote would clear the way for toxic mining that puts all of that at risk. It would also set a dangerous precedent, making it easier to roll back protections for public lands across the country, including wilderness areas, national monuments, and national parks.  •This is a defining moment. If you care about clean water, public lands, and protecting places we can’t replace, now is the time to speak up. •Protect the Boundary Waters, and vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140. Let’s save this treasured place for all of us—forever. on.nrdc.org/4csRkwi

Just another TPUSA racist hypocrite who projects his shortcomings onto hard working immigrants while he spends all day drinking, not working, and breaking the law. Resign @elliottengenMN

Hey @elliottengenMN, do you plan on letting us know what you were arrested for last night at 4am? @StarTribune @PioneerPress

5 minutes before Trump’s announcement: * $1.5B notional worth of S&P500 (ES) futures are bought in a single clip. * $192M notional of oil futures (CL) sold. More than 4x-6x any other trade size during the market close. Insiders profited from his lies in broad daylight!

Milwaukee has always been and always will be a multinational gathering place. Once this dark chapter of Trumpism is behind us, we will once again welcome immigrants from around the globe and regain our title as one of the most “foreign” cities in America. wuwm.com/race-ethnicity/2025…

Thanks to some incredibly dedicated volunteers and hundreds of supporters, the Rebel Loon project that we started three weeks ago has already converted over 500 jerseys and raised more than $7,500 for Minnesota’s Immigrant Defense Network. Learn more about it here: rebelloonproject.org/

Minnesota United fans embrace rebel loon logo to help community hurt by ICE pipr.es/jiTGReL

"The pride we have." Feature: #MNUFC supporters are removing Target logos from jerseys by the hundreds and replacing them with rebel loon insignias. Cause is not rooted in a corporate boycott but rather a show of support for immigrants in the Twin Cities. twincities.com/2026/02/27/mi…

BREAKING: ICE Whistleblower Ryan Schwank just blew the whistle on Donald Trump’s ICE and their illegal actions. “I watched ICE dismantle the training program… classes that teach the Constitution, our legal system, firearms training, the use of force, lawful arrests, proper detention, and the limits of officers authority. ICE is teaching cadets to violate the Constitution and they were attempting to cloak it in secrecy by demanding that I lie about it.”

Audits in Utah, Idaho, Louisiana, Montana, and Georgia found a few dozen possible noncitizen registrants out of millions—and virtually no voting. Trump’s claim that noncitizens are swinging elections is false, says Cato’s @stephen_richer. ow.ly/1LXL50YewC6

The MNUFC subreddit is planning a one-day event where fans can bring in their jerseys, get the Target logo removed, and get a Rebel Loon logo heatstamped in its place, all in exchange for a donation to the Immigrant Defense Network.
