This Korean worker raid seems like it might turn out to be a major turning point in the US economy — and the astounding thing is it’s not clear anyone senior in government approved it? At the very least: There appear to be no consequences for the people who launched it.

This is insane—a school is paying to put its students under AI surveillance, empowering a glitchy system to delete schoolwork, expose student journalists’ sources, and out queer students to their parents

The son of a journalist in immigration detention pleads for the release of his father, saying his dad has been his caregiver and source of strength since he underwent surgery for a brain tumor.

The attorney they’ve put in charge of fabricating charges against Comey and Letitia James was the person who’d previously been charged with bringing “truth and sanity” to the Smithsonian. So that tracks. newrepublic.com/post/199376/...

Good job, mate. Top notch. www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

And they hide their faces so they can remain unaccountable.

In the DC area, ABC did NOT air Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. Here are the commercials that aired on ABC in Kimmel's time slot. I won't be spending a single dollar on any of these products/services: Wendy's Sketchers Kia Jeep Cirque du Soliel Safestep Walk In Tubs AMP Sales & Marketing Solutions

Lolololol

This is the fishiest shit I've ever seen. We're supposed to believe the shooter wrote "Anti-ICE" in pen on a bullet and then shot detainees but not ICE officers?

CLIP: “Figuring out ways to love my neighbor became so hard as a Republican.” Ex-GOP Lt. Gov. of GEORGIA Geoff Duncan, now running for Gov as a Dem, says others are having the same journey — and the “tone & tenor” inside the GOP chased him away. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DO9e6s2...

Seems bad for our society when you can’t make racist terrorists the villains

MAGA Is Weakening and The Majority Is Gaining Power Activist @jesscraven101.bsky.social gives detailed examples of how we, the majority, can use our money, our bodies, and our voices to boycott the Trump Administration and pressure Democratic leadership. thelefthook.substack.com/p/maga-is-we...

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

NEW: Psychiatric hospitals — increasingly owned by for-profit corporations — are illegally turning away patients during crises. Yet only a handful face penalties, with fines that are trivial, a ProPublica investigation found. By @emcahan.bsky.social

Setting aside the bad science, the message here is that pregnant women should suffer--and risk harming their fetus with untreated fever--to reduce their chance of having a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Which makes clear his disdain for women *and* people with ASD. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Monsters.

Republicans control the House, Senate, the Supreme Court, and the Presidency.

The kids are all right. This video was shared by one of my daughter’s 9th-grade classmates. m.youtube.com/shorts/EQFgb...

Trump says hepatitis B is sexually transmitted, and to wait until the baby is born and turns 12 years old and is fully formed, and then take hepatitis B. Forget how mentally deranged he is. Take note that 12 years old is always his go-to age.

Go fuck yourselves, fascists.

Absolutely unsurprising that their autism recommendation [sic] is that women need to suffer more

Oh, they're totally going to blame the mothers for the existence of autistic people. It's eugenics wrapped in misogyny.

NEW: Utah Republicans introduced a bill late Sunday that uses an audacious new scheme to rig the map-drawing process, after a court struck down their gerrymander. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Millions of people boycotting & speaking out in unison put Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. Let’s not forget he’s not the only victim of fascism. For every Kimmel there’s hundreds more who’ve been silenced for their views that we may never hear of. Fight for them.

Texas is the testing ground for Christian nationalism. Billionaires Farris Wilks and Tim Dunn bankroll Ten Commandments mandates and Project 2025 allies — policies designed to spread nationwide. Rep. James Talarico warns their goal is total control of law and culture. Read more:

Why read past headlines: I explore the new "MAHA report," the Tylenol nonsense and the hateful rhetoric around the hepatitis B vaccine. Taken together, it's clear that the MAHA movement thinks mothers are the main, if not sole, reason children get sick. www.salon.com/2025/09/22/r...

"If your goal is to cement your power, then it’s rational to pardon your most ardent criminal supporters who have been convicted of carrying out violent acts on your behalf. They will be your civilian army." -- @govpritzker.illinois.gov contrarian.substack.com/p/be-loud-fo...

Friendly reminder: Autism isn't something to be "cured" or "fixed." It's a spectrum, and the people on that spectrum just need respect for who they are. Any talk of "curing" or "fixing" people with autism, is basically calling for genocide/eugenics.

Shaun King backing up Tucker Carlson that Jews killed Jesus. It is important to state this bluntly (I should actually write a piece about it): Antisemitism is close to getting mainstream. One thing preventing it on the right is Trump's support of Israel, but Carlson and others are pushing it.

A rich and powerful man voluntarily bearing a cross onstage, but adding wheels so it's not remotely difficult, is the perfect picture for our country.

Trump donor Larry Ellison’s Oracle will oversee TikTok’s algorithm. His media company owns CBS News and is plotting a bid for Warner Bros., which owns CNN. When billionaires take control of communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

This is how it's done, folks

A gender lens remains one of the best ways to understand far right authoritarian regimes. Male order is imposed through a family-like structure, with women subservient and children taught that fear is the price of belonging www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

I'm much more concerned about the $2B transferred to Trump crime family crypto World Liberty Financial before Nvidia chips were sent to UAE. doing it right out in the open. $50K? chump change. want something from Trump? invest in his crypto. money laundering and graft out in the open

A fun fact about McCarthyism is that just two and a half years after he was condemned and censured, Sen. Joseph McCarthy drank himself to death at 48. Fevers break. Petty tyrants fall. Censorship and persecution drive good people to stand together and fight back.

A report in HuffPo says ICE is evacuating a DHS facility it was using outside of Chicago for its operations. Protests and direct action once again drive Trump out of #Chicago. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-ev...

Another weapons shopping spree by ICE last week. Here's what else they spent the American people's money on. 🧵

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

So, wait…does this mean the U.S. government *regulates* the algorithm (as governments do) or literally *controls* is? Because the difference seems significant?

Scientists have discovered plastic in human bones, making them more fragile and potentially accelerating the aging process. The plastic industry is killing us. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

Americans, as a whole, do not bear the same ill will as Stephen Miller does toward anyone not born and subsequently ostracized in Santa Monica. This kind of self imposed damage is yet another example of how crackpot extremist have captured government and the GOP is too cowardly to say anything.
