Three clips from The Majority Report dealing with ICE and AOC on Dem leaders funding ICE
Listen to tRump’s crazy ranting in the video below and it is so bizarre. He claims he built the military and so many crazy things I am stunned that this person is the US president. Hugs
Oregon immigration attorney intervenes as ICE agents attempt to arrest asylum seeker
Trigger warning. This is difficult to watch. ICE threatens a woman who stands up to them and threatens her. Lots of yelling and swearing.
An immigration attorney goes after ICE gang Gestapo thugs who pretend they know the laws and make claims that the lawyer shoots down with ease. However at the start one of the gang thugs reacts angrily and shoves her, then gets in her face to threaten her claiming she shoved him. She told him she was an attorney which seemed to give him pause even though he ran his mouth at her making threats to detain her or take her down, which is a euphemism for a beating. Hugs
Political cartoons / memes / and news I want to share. 2-6-2026
Sorry this is late. I have been sick for three days. Just really worn and tired. But I will try to get more sleep and stop stressing and hopefully will feel better soon. I made a large baked ziti yesterday and I made pictures and videos so I will post them soon. Hugs
“F.Y.I.—he’s not ready to laugh at the cliché of violent authoritarianism in a failing kingdom.”
Making no profits has given this ethical failure and unassimilated racist immigrant the possibility to become a trillionaire through massive taxpayer-funded subsidies and outrageous tax cuts.
The system is rigged.

We’re not going to lie, 2025 was a tough year, as we lost many of the Black legends we knew and loved. Now, as 2026 gets underway, we must say goodbye to even more of those who had such a tremendous impact on the culture. Although they are gone, they will never be forgotten.
(snip-brief celebratory obits/photos on the page. A few of them have been posted here, lat year. While you peruse our losses, enjoy this next one from The Root, too! I would listen to Luther Vandross sing the phone book.)

Although Kendrick Lamar and SZA walked away with the 2026 Grammy for Record of the Year for their song “luther”—which sampled the 1982 Luther Vandross hit “If This World Were Mine”—the late iconic singer still somehow became one of the hottest topics of the night.
This was thanks in large part to Cher’s hilarious and accidental flub, announcing Vandross as the winner instead Lamar. But still it made for a good reason to talk about the legendary singer and his musical contributions. It also got us thinking about our favorite Luther Vandross songs and so we’d figure what better way to wax poetic about them than by putting together our top favorite tracks of his for the best of the best playlist!
Fair warning though: this list will make you move and groove so make room wherever you are!
People Are Fed Up With ICE’s Crimes

The above is my life. Am sorry if this brings you down but these are what I struggle with every day 24 hours a day. I really want to thank the wonderful people / community support I have gotten. You are the most wonderful to understand how hard it can be for me some days. Hugs
Education and Healthcare lowest ranked on the states report card Alabama ranks in the bottom 10 for education, with higher education at 42nd and Pre-K through 12th grade at 43rd. California ranks 37th in Pre-K-12 education according to recent reports, with challenges in areas like high school graduation rates and college readiness.
The Steele Dossier connected Russia with Trump. Over and over again.
Marco Rubio paid for the research.
Then Republicans lied about who paid for the research and tried to pin the dossier on Democrats.
Then dossier was tainted and degraded as partisan.
What did we learn? Republicans are Russia,and Republicans will lie about anything.
“Let’s stick with gray scale for our midwinter just-as-they-head-home-from-work palette.”
MS Now ICE clips and some guest democrats.
The video below has people recounting the gang thug brutality of ICE attacking and shooting people doing nothing wrong. ICE thugs were totally out of control and had no respect for civil rights or the lives of the people they attacked. The ICE thugs seemed to be jacked up in rage by some substance and enjoyed causing pain and being cruel. Hugs
The video below details how the ICE gang thugs were bragging about shooting innocent people. The thugs did not care how brutal they were with the woman but instead seemed to relish being allowed to be so brutal. Hugs
The video below details the conditions at the ICE concentration camp, including that a 2 month old baby is being held there. Hugs
‘My own government attempted to execute me’: Victims of ICE and Border Patrol aggression testify
Witness testimony at a congressional hearing. I will post clips of their testimonys from MS Now. But please watch this. These are US citizens who committed no crime but being of Hispanic ethnicity. The agent who shot one of the witnesses bragged about it. These descriptions are something we wouldn’t believe it couldn’t happen here, but they are under the fascist government of Stephen Miller. These gang thugs do not think of these people as humans. This is no different from the way Jewish people were treated in Nazi Germany. The thugs were laughing at the disabled woman with a brain injury. They were totally willing to let this woman die. Plus currently there is no way for these assaulted people to recover lost / damaged property and income, and when taken to the hospital for emergency care due to their being assulted / shot by ICE gang thugs the people assaulted have to pay the cost of their treatment, not ICE or the government!
