Remember that the Trump Administration demands you idolize these agents and not condemn them. But they’re Gestapo trash.

NEW: Jeremy Carl, a top Trump nominee, deleted 1000s of social media posts, many w/inflammatory commentary — including incendiary posts about race, claiming “peaceful coexistence” w/Democrats is impossible - even a call for a political opponent to face the death penalty. www.cnn.com/2025/09/25/p...

JUST IN: A new class action lawsuit challenges ICE's warrantless immigration arrests in Washington, D.C., which they say are occuring without probable cause and based largely on perceived ethnicity. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

We should have something like "bug bounties", but for people. Like if I see someone with discolored patches all over their skin and say "That's vitiligo!" I should get $500.

U.S. intelligence has removed "T" from "LGBT" in their reports - including those intended to warn of threats to the community. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/feds-disap...

The right has spent decades telling Americans that immigrants are murdering, marauding rapists coming to kill their families and destroy their communities. They encouraged and supported vigilante posses in border towns. They suggested letting Border Patrol shoot on sight. Their brand is violence.

Ted Cruz just forcefully proclaimed that ICE are not nazis. And for the billionth time in seven months, I must ask: has James Rodden been fired?

Ahem the guy who invented the term "evidence based medicine" just rebuked the most prominent anti-trans health lobby group in the world www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

New: For @msnbc.com I wrote abt Trump’s absurd EO declaring antifa a “domestic terror org” I trace history of MAGA manufacturing antifa bogeyman to both distract from v real far right violence, & to create a pretext for vigilantes & police to target the wider left www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Tylenol overdose is supposed to be one of the most painful ways to die. I guess I'd be pretty pissed if I suddenly knew a lot about trains but couldn't do anything with that knowledge.

The Amish have chronic inbreeding which has led to worse things than autism. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maple_s...

Jimmy Kimmel has narcolepsy. I only really know this because I know a decent amount about narcolepsy, and he's probably the most famous living person confirmed to have it. I know stress can trigger it, hope that hasn't been the case for him lately.

I can just picture the scene, in a lamplit room, with a bunch of guys sitting around eating hummus, asking "What do we do to get this Jimmy Kimmel guy to stop talking the truth about us?"

The Heritage Foundation is going after me this morning calling me a terrorist because I am accurately stating what they are intending to do. Michael Knowles at CPAC explicitly called for the "eradication of transgenderism." I'll continue to speak the truth of what is being done to my community.

UPDATE: Last night, the ACLU filed a separate motion to quash for another Instagram account targeted by the same subpoena. Court filings indicate there were six IG accounts total: www.courtlistener.com/docket/71386...

For those of you who have been looking into that very bizarre/dangerous “Expose Charlie’s Murderers” website, I’ve got a piece coming in a couple hours that raises a whole lot of questions about who might be behind it and who they might be connected to.

2) There is no domestic terror law. While FBI could investigate people because they oppose Trump, they have to be charged with real charges. 3) Thus far, Trump is WILDLY failing his attempt to criminalize opposition, bc due process is much higher than deportation.

Let me say a few things abt Trump's Antifa terror designation. 1) He tried this before. Didn't happen. (Then, it seemed to be an attempt to justifying retaliation if counterprotestors showed up on Jan6.)

The moment we're in feels like the Reichstag fire. You know, just in terms of Charlie Kirk not being alive.

Listening to Scott Jennings whine about people calling ICE "nazis" is really funny when the nazi I found there still hasn't been fired.

It's interesting that when looking for a cite about ICE agents hauling people out of cars, one of the top hits I came across was a piece about aggressive ICE tactics in ... People.com. That can't be good for ICE, if the pop-culture-fluff mags are running pieces about ICE attacks.

Just had a colleague say that they've switched from a final to multiple midterms this semester bc the law is changing so rapidly that it's literally impossible to predict ... December. It's like buying beers in the Weimar. Buy two now, bc the price'll be higher when you finish the first.

I am going to become the joker.

I'm here as a fellow human to acknowledge that Charlie Kirk has, as we know, passed on. Charlie was a man. Also, Charlie was the founder of Turning Point USA. And when a man dies, it is sad. All of us will die one day. In this case, it is Charlie who has done so. (1/2)

The far-right is clearly emboldened by the murder of Charlie Kirk

How hard is it to just tell ChatGPT not to use em dashes?

there's a weird feedback loop where the media's reaction to kirk's death pushes you to speak more ill of the dead than you otherwise would because it's the only reasonable response to the simpering praise they're heaping on him

ICE reactivated its contract with spyware manufacturer Paragon Solutions. You can read more about it here, but what does that mean for using encrypted chat apps like Signal? 🧵(1/8)

No, the alleged Charlie Kirk shooter didn't donate to the "TRUMP MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN COMMITTEE" in 2020. Spending 30 seconds searching the Washington County, Utah Assessor's Office website shows it's a completely different person (Tyler Robinson is a common name!)

Wait, "Years of Lead" was a thing in Italy? I thought people were talking about all the lead consumed by boomers.

Yeah, LIBS, Trump DID have a STROKE. The stroke of a PEN, because he wasn't using AUTOPEN 🙄

EXCLUSIVE/BOMBSHELL: @bloomberg.com has obtained **18K** previously unreported emails from Jeffery Epstein's personal Yahoo account. The emails are disturbing & revelatory & reveal new details about Ghilaine Maxwell's role FREE to read www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

You guys put podcast hosts in charge of the FBI and fired all the competent agents because you thought they were woke.

Kash Patel in Monday's underwear, panic stricken and knocking over empty beer cans, googling "how to find murder suspect"

In honor of Charlie Kirk, flags will be flown at both sides.

I think this guy may be the worst account on X. He says things that are so flagrantly incorrect that one would assume he's being ironic, but he's not. And it's always delivered with this fucking utterly victimized sanctimony. Just repulsive.

Appears person filmed being arrested is not a suspect and suspect is not in custody. CNN reports that University now says single shot came from a building 200 yards away. Certainly suggests an experienced marksman.

EXCLUSIVE: @bloomberg.com has obtained more than 100 previously undisclosed emails between UK Ambassador Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein from 2005 through 2010 that reveal Mandelson's steadfast support for Epstein after Epstein was charged with sex crimes 🎁 www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

New contribution to this piece from @malachy.bsky.social and myself: the Epstein novelty check photo was indeed taken at Mar-a-Lago. nytimes.com/2025/09/09/u... The palm trees in the background are near a small hut by a tennis court (taken down in ~2005-6). Compare with a 1997 photo here:

Epstein had a reputation for being mysterious, and it was his birthday. "Enigmas never age" isn't even a particularly weird line in the context of the letter. Just Jesus Christ shut up with this "secret anagram" shit.

Oh my God shut up with the "gamine" thing, the letter is bad enough as it is. You're gonna give Vance cover to do a tweet dunking on that dumb anagram theory and steal all the momentum of Trump writing a demented sex letter to a child molester.

Holy fuck, NO. THIS FOOTAGE IS THREE MONTHS OLD. Stop. Doing This!!

Swans were fucking great last night, Michael Gira signed my vinyl copy of "The Great Annihilator". Please tell me there's at least one Swans fan among my followers.

1. NEWS The US Department of Justice has asked a federal judge overseeing the case of deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein to deny a request from NBC News to unseal the names of two associates who received large payments from him in 2018.

What Epstein records have not been made public?

Trump pardoned Ross Ulbricht. It was literally one of the first things that he did in this term.

It was only a matter of time before we'd see both stories like this and passages like footnote 9 in Judge Burroughs' ruling yesterday in the Harvard case. It's one thing to be bound by #SCOTUS; it's another thing to respect what the justices are doing. The decline of the latter is a five-alarm fire.

An officer briefly became the face of Trump’s brutality mandate in DC after popping up in various videos like federal Forrest Gump. @jsweetli.bsky.social and I investigated and found he’s a 26-year-old former Eagle Scout named Patrick O’Hanlon who says he was just doing his job. Our report:

The ICE agent with a "SEND ME" patch who was reportedly racially profiling drivers in Washington DC is Jason Christopher Perez of Austin, Texas. Additional footage I received matches pictures from social media of his arm tattoos. And an ICE email address with his name appears in a data breach.
