BREAKING: Rep. Ilhan Omar defiantly responds to Trump’s fascist raid of her home just a few weeks out from the midterms.

He picked a fight with the wrong woman…

“I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement,” Omar wrote on X. “For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.”

“I will not be silenced,” she concluded.

Early this morning, ICE agents raided Omar’s home in Washington, D.C., ostensibly in search of immigration documents, including paperwork that her late father filed when she was just a child.

The Rubicon has been crossed.

Trump is now directing his jackbooted thugs to carry out politically motivated raids on his enemies based on fully fabricated allegations. This is a blatant targeting of Omar because she is an outspoken critic of this regime and, more importantly to the bigoted MAGA base, she’s a Black woman, a Muslim, and an immigrant. They are frothing at the mouth over the prospect of harming her.

This is the kind of thing that you see in crumbling democracies right before the fascists make a concerted effort to permanently seize power. While we can’t say for sure that this tactic will spread, this normalizes sham raids on Democratic politicians and opens the door to a sweeping campaign of state-sponsored terror. Trump knows that he’s headed into an electoral wipeout in the midterms and so he’s desperately reaching deep into the authoritarian playbook.

Expect the administration to push for denaturalizing and deporting Omar next, a longstanding dream of the white nationalist movement. They want to remove every last non-white, non-Christian person from this country but before they can do that they need to demonstrate an ability to strip away citizenship.

Omar isn’t intimidated. Neither can we be. This is the canary in the coal mine. It’s time to take to the streets en masse.

Please ❤️ and share if you proudly stand with Congressman Ilhan Omar!

BREAKING: “I WILL NEVER STOP!” Activist "JoJo from Jerz" reveals how Trump and Melania tried to SILENCE her with legal threats – and the single mother REFUSED to surrender!
Joanne Carducci, the firebrand progressive blogger known to more than a million followers as JoJo from Jerz, has revealed a months-long legal ordeal that she says left her crying every day, terrified of losing her home, and desperately trying to protect her two children.

Her account begins with threatening letters from attorneys representing Donald and Melania Trump, demanding that she retract statements, apologize, and pay money over things she'd posted online. According to Carducci, the demands eventually became entirely about Melania.

According to Carducci, the Trumps' attorney initially demanded that she retract statements she'd made online, including her claim that Trump incited the deadly January 6 insurrection. She was also ordered to issue a full apology, admit that she had knowingly lied, and agree to a financial payment, with just days to respond and the threat of punitive damages hanging over her.

And the price of refusing? Carducci says the lawyers eventually demanded a staggering $1 MILLION from a single mother who had once earned $16 an hour as a school paraprofessional.

“They would take my home,” she wrote in a deeply personal and powerful Substack essay.

Carducci says she kept the ordeal secret from her children, even as she struggled with the possibility that the house she'd worked so hard to provide for them could be taken away.
“She was swinging a fucking wrecking ball at a mosquito, and my children lived in the building,” Carducci wrote of Melania.

But Carducci refused to retract her criticism or issue an apology.

Former New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin stepped in to help her without charge, providing legal advice and support while she faced demands she says she could never have afforded to fight alone.

Eventually, according to Carducci, the letters stopped. She never apologized, never retracted her statements, and never agreed to the demands.

What finally persuaded her to tell the world was watching Melania Trump promote women's empowerment on television.

“She’s for women’s empowerment, and I’m a fucking natural blonde,” Carducci wrote.

The contrast is striking: a first lady publicly encouraging women to find their voices, while a woman who had used hers says she spent months fearing the consequences of refusing to be silent.

Carducci acknowledges that she's still frightened. She also insists that her work as a satirist, mocking powerful public figures, is an exercise of her right to free expression.

And after months of keeping the ordeal from even her own children, she has a message for the people she says tried to intimidate her:

“Because I am never, EVER going to stop.”

OMG, has Pete Hegseth seen this yet?

This is HILARIOUS!

BREAKING: CNN just aired a devastating montage of all the times that Donald Trump accused others of using their public office to make money. Donald Trump's net worth has almost tripled since he took office. Everything he accuses others of is an open admission.

Donald Trump doesn’t want you talking about the fact that his disapproval rating is an all-time high 62%, so whatever you do, don’t share this tweet.

It will make him very mad.

The White House has confirmed its official X account posted a fake image of a woman arrested in Minnesota after interrupting a service at a church where an ICE official appears to be a pastor. The White House image altered the actual photo to wrongly make it seem like the defendant was sobbing.

Asked for comment, the White House sent a link to a spokesperson’s X post that said, “Enforcement of the law will continue. The memes will continue.”

Law enforcement leaders from across the Twin Cities spoke out about ICE operations in the area.

[Matt McDermott @mattmfm]

Must watch: NYT just released a damning forensic analysis of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

It flatly refutes Trump administration claims — confirming the motorist was driving away, not toward the officer, and the officer was not hit by the vehicle.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

[Mike Nellis @MikeNellis]

Here’s Pete Hegseth in 2016 saying there should be consequences for people who commit war crimes—that members of the military shouldn’t follow illegal orders from the President: “If you’re doing something that is just completely unlawful and ruthless, then there is a consequence for that. That’s why the military said it won’t follow unlawful orders from their commander in chief.” 🤔

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Epstein survivors just announced they will release their own list of names.

“We know who abused us. We saw who came and went. This list will be survivor-led—for survivors.”

The government stalled.

Now the victims are doing it themselves.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨 CONFIRMED: The White House told NBC News that helping Rep. Massie release all the Epstein files would be seen as a “very hostile act” against the administration.

That’s not a denial.
That’s a threat.

They’re protecting someone — and we all know it.

This is the kind of stuff that fills me with gratitude to be associated with this team. A lot of you may not know Frankie personally, but you know how much it meant to the guys to get him to Atlanta. Tigers fans came through. He’s a humble guy and deserving. #RepDetroit always

We now know why the Secretary of Drunkenness got so mad at this question.
The enriched uranium wasn’t even in the target set.
He doesn’t know where it is.
He knew all of this.
And now so do we.
