The war zone in Portland is out of control.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

There is absolutely no reason for this. Trump is doing this only b/c Santos sucked up to him. The case against Santos was solid. He was a total fraud and violated assorted campaign finance laws. Noah Lanard and I broke a major piece of the Santos story in 2023: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Padilla: It’s not just undocumented folks who are being detained and arrested. It’s legal immigrants—even US citizens. We know of at least 170 US citizens who have been caught up in these raids and put in detention centers. It’s the intended effect of this administration to stoke fear and terror

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Make it make sense. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

On top of detaining U.S. citizens, ICE is now fining legal residents for not carrying their papers. It was never about going after the “worst of the worst.” It was always about cruelty.

The end of Section 2 of the VRA means that House elections need to be totally restructured. There’s no other choice. We’re not going back to no Black representation in the US House. Beyond unacceptable.

Government workers are just pawns for the president who is playing a game of chicken with people's lives.

You know what today marks? 3 WEEKS since @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social won her election to represent #AZ07 in Congress. That is 3 weeks more that 700k Arizonans have gone without representation in the House because Speaker Mike Johnson won’t swear her in. Stop delaying and do your job.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

ICE GOONS, laughing and pepper spraying Pastor after shooting him in the face with pepper balls, proceeded to gas the crowd who were trying to protect him.

ICYMI — They lied about why they assaulted the WGN producer (then rammed a car for no reason)

Don’t dare record fascist goons! They’re kidnapping us citizens for doing so now in Chicago.

True bravery!

Next week. No kings today. No kings ever.

🚨🚨🚨WA Governor Bob Ferguson responds to a letter he received from AG Pam Bondi in which she threatened to place him in jail. 🧯He is on fire! 1/2

Soybeans are one of the biggest cash crops that North Carolina farmers rely on. And those farmers are now facing financial disaster.

100s of #CDC employees were notified Friday they were being fired — RIF'd. The firings cross multiple parts of the agency, endangering its core mission of keeping Americans safe. Saturday, some were informed they were RIF'd in error. Hard to imagine how this happens www.statnews.com/2025/10/11/c...

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin. When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Donald Trump is making it easier for you to get discriminated against when trying to rent or buy a home. Housing is out of reach for too many Americans and Trump is making it worse.

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

This Is Fascism

Get out now or we will prosecute you.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

iHop is still looking for his future home! He is smart and loves being around humans. How can you resist those toe beans? He is just outside Vancouver BC. www.tinykittens.com/adopt

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s. This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

SOUTH CAROLINA… “Judge Goodstein was walking on the beach when the fire started. Her husband, Arnie, was in the house with children and perhaps grandchildren. The family had to escape by jumping from a window or balcony...” www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook. Our duty is to stand up to brutality. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: This statement is a clear example of what is known as “State Terrorism”: When the dictatorship will order all instruments of its state security & intelligence apparatus against its own citizens to terrorize the population.

They persist in exerting pressure and harassment on the minority communities in Washington, D.C., which mainstream media won’t report on.

The body slam seems to be the ICE preferred initial interaction.

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism. I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

Jesus Christ. DHS has held this guy in the hospital handcuffed to a bed and under constant guard for over a MONTH without ANY warrant or even ANY steps taken towards putting him into the removal system!

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.
