Tragic. Sad. And true. "Memo to Future Historians: This Is Fascism, and Millions of Us See It" From Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much else—this is no longer America. newrepublic.com/post/201625/...

Been running this on loop for 5 minutes. Just brilliant. ❤️🫂 Portland.

"Residents in the apartment building across from Portland’s ICE facility have found themselves in the middle of a confrontation they didn’t ask for. They say it’s not the protesters that are the problem" portlandtribune.com/2025/10/10/i...

Trump didn't realize that starting wars (Venezuela, Chicago, Portland) doesn't get you a Peace Prize.

Just checked with my sister in Portland AND with this website and it appears that, once again, Portland is not burning.

The military aren’t even getting paid during the government shutdown, right? The National Guard who was deployed to California n Portland they didn’t get paid cuz Taco only deployed them for 29 days, right? Military shouldn’t have 2 go 2 food bank. Our gov should b helping them! #arresttrump

Today in Politics, Bulletin 226. MAGA meltdown over Trump’s Nobel snub, Qatar air base in Idaho, China trade war escalates bigly, House GOP calls No Kings protests terrorism, and that’s only about 10% of the madness today. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

omg

In. Sane.

The No Kings rallies have been peaceful. But when was there ever a protest with violence in Washington, DC? I'm racking my brain on that one....Oh yeah, when YOUR people showed up to overturn an election, beat up cops, and threatened Dem. and Repub. legislators. Trump pardoned all those thugs.

Despicably pathetic. MAGA, you're only tough when facing off against protesters in inflatable frog suits. Grow a spine already.

Double no.

A task assigned by no good manager EVER. Welcome to the peak of Mount Stupid on the Dunning Kruger Curve.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

the background on zohran's colbert appearance is jaw-droppingly disgusting

Unprecedented crime in Chicago in 2025 that justifies the invocation of the Insurrection Act? Trust Trump

RFK Jr on Tylenol and autism: "It is not proof. We're doing the studies to make the proof."

Everyone is lying except the people we know lie to us multiple times per day

Trump Watches commercials are now running regularly on Newsmax

Unbeknownst to most or long forgotten is that on October 8 and October 10, 2023; Hamas offered the same deal that’s being pitched as Trump’s “Gaza Peace Deal” which would have handed all hostages over to Israel in exchange for Israeli troops not entering the strip, Netanyahu refused the proposal.

ICE is targeting kids. “The idea that masked men would now go to 14-year-olds and ask them to waive their rights to return to the countries that they fled is shocking.” Read more: interc.pt/4o1hD0C ✍️ @jonahmv.bsky.social 📹 @jordanuhl.com

“States that embrace renewable energy are far more likely to save money for electricity consumers than those relying on fossil fuels or nuclear power… findings that undermine one of the Trump administration’s main justifications for its aggressive rollback of federal clean energy policies.”

This is a great first step!

Plan coming in two weeks….

CHICAGO — Outside an elementary school during dismissal… horrifying. What have we become?

I wrote about the inherent contradiction between the Trump administration's MAHA agenda and its refusal to investigate or halt the dumping of toxic chemicals into our food, water and air. theintercept.com/2025/10/02/r...

Today’s lesson in self awareness.

you'd think a prominent news outlet like the New York Times might mention that "antifa" isn't an actual organization in a long story about antifa, but nope! and the subhead helps props up a false claim this professor was up to something seedy as something up for debate

Cantwell is the biggest W for nominative determinism since Bernie Madoff

Republican Senators, with an assist from Sen. John Fetterman, voted down an attempt to block the Trump administration’s missile strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug boats. interc.pt/4o9CBur

That's helpful to know.

The GOP tax bill cut $137B in rural Medicaid funding, and then added in $50B in rural hospital funding to try to compensate. Rural hospitals have already been closing for years. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

"Miller is taking a "hands-on" role in investigating the funding of nonprofits and educational institutions and is sharing recommendations from Attorney General Pam Bondi and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent with Trump and other top advisers, the first White House official said."

It's now considered controversial to fight the KKK in a video game.

Jimmy Kimmel was fantastic tonight. youtu.be/_XXpWVNtsVg?...

Can we talk about how they wrote "we" and then crossed it out and replaced it with "you" because, I mean, that's really telling.

Masked ICE agents are running around the streets, storming buildings and indiscriminately pointing guns at people. But if you look scared when you see an ICE officer that's suspicious. Watch this clip. This cannot stand.

First, Texas buses thousands of migrants to Chicago as a political stunt. Now, Trump sends the Texas National Guard to "manage" the situation they helped create. The audacity is breathtaking.

I have a confession. It’s me. I’m the girlfriend of Antifa.

Good lord. @apnews.com

if every democrat doesn’t use the “we took freedom of speech away” on every messaging apparatus they have every single day for the next 4 years assume they want to lose

"the girlfriend of one of the founders of antifa"

The tank's role is to draw aggro

I am old enough to remember when this company used images of MLK, Gandhi, and Muhammad Ali in their ads, after having previously made one of the most famous ads in history by invoking "1984."

The literal reading of this statement is Pam Bondi is planning extrajudicial executions of random protesters.

Temporary Restraining Order to be granted tomorrow in the Chicago case filed by journalists, pastors, and others hit with riot control munitions by ICE!

this is wonky stuff and is also really important
