"A U.S. finding that Israel was committing war crimes would have required, under U.S. law, blocking future arms shipments and ending intelligence sharing with Israel. Israel’s intelligence services have worked closely with the U.S. for decades and provide...information...about...the Middle East."

I need to emphasize what I say down-thread: this is a temporary, procedural move known as an administrative stay issued in haste by Justice Jackson. Little to nothing should be read into this ruling for how SCOTUS might ultimately rule on SNAP—either way.

This administration just enjoys starving people.

Oh fuck all the way off with this

I’ve done some reporting on this based on raw data and anecdotal vibes from interviewees. This is a comprehensive survey and the numbers ain’t good.

Does anyone understand why Jay Jacobs still has that job? I feel like I should and I don’t.

Cop watching it happen and telling horrified onlookers to back up while the Feds kidnap a baby from a seizing man. Keeping names I hope for when this is over.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists. They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver. apnews.com/article/trum...

ICE grabs father by the neck—send him into violent seizure while his arms lock up around his toddler. "He's having seizure and they're trying to rip the baby out of his hands!" Agents then handcuff him—before putting in ambulance with his child. Mother is detained by agents as target of arrest.

Let’s hear more of the dangers of democratic socialism under Mamdani

She tried to collaborate and got this in return.

My neighborhood has been targeted for weeks now. It's been HARD but I know there are so many people who give a shit just like my wife and I, and we're trying to be there for our neighbors.

Daycares in our neighborhood are no longer answering their doors after morning drop-off. Parents have to call the daycare when they arrive and they let them in for pickup. It's insane how we live now.

Democrats are holding a press call today. Odd that NY doesn’t get a shout out in the press release.

Cops understand the Punisher about as well as they understand the Constitution.

In Northwest Detroit, District 7 went to Denzel McCampbell. He’s now the second Democratic Socialist on City Council. McCampbell spoke with @mcnamarawdet.bsky.social about working with Mayor-elect Mary Sheffield and how he plans to deliver for Detroiters. buff.ly/x9pIVU6

Statement on Mamdani’s win from a GOP senate candidate in Michigan.

best encapsulation why everyone hates democrats despite trump being the spawn of satan

Kamala Harris says she isn't ruling out running for president again and I appreciate seeing her try to lose Michigan again years in advance

There is some sad irony in McClatchy shutting its DC bureau the same day that Dick Cheney died. That bureau (then Knight-Ridder) did some of the best, most skeptical reporting anywhere in the run-up to the Iraq War. And they took a lot of shit for it at the time. www.cato.org/commentary/q...

Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo? Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."

I don’t know why, but I continue to be surprised at the level of vitriolic racism dished out by this sitting Senator. Disgusting.

"Bury him face down." This barn burner of an obit might feel hyperbolic to people who entered the world in the wake of 9/11; it's not. Cheney was one of the architects of today's American Christian conservatism. He was directly responsible for millions of deaths. Salt the earth where he's buried.

The great @attackerman.bsky.social on Dick Cheney www.thenation.com/article/poli...

News from Buenos Aires: a 16-year-old neo-Nazi was arrested for threatening to attack a school, after an FBI tip. A replica firearm had "inscriptions with the names of notorious mass shooters such as Brenton Tarrant, Anders Breivik, and Rafael Solich."

It's still a little jarring to see high-ranking LEOs 1) lie so brazenly and 2) have such little understanding of the Constitution.

Here in Detroit, as well as communities across Michigan and parts of the country, it's General Election Day 🗳 The family and I just voted 🙌🏾 Make sure to go cast your ballot today for Mayor, City Council, City Clerk, and Police Commissioner. Polls open right now until 8pm 💙 #GoVOTE #WeDeserveBetter

Forgot that punchbowl was some kinda news site so for a few seconds I thought wow that must have been a pretty crazy accident

Dick Cheney’s legacy is that he turned 9/11 from a national tragedy into a global disaster. He did so through a mixture of arrogance, stupidity and greed and blighted the last quarter century.

racial and political terrorism this morning

"bracing"

Detroit’s City Council president is running to become the city's first woman mayor, with housing for single-mother-led households as a major part of her platform.

Hed might as well be Dick Cheney, Kamala Harris supporter, dead at 84

Hmm — what a great day for Teen Vogue to kill the politics coverage that helps young people navigate and understand how quiet moves such Idaho's rejection of family planning funding directly affect their lives.

A really damaging blow to the already less than perfect credibility and brand of the Nobel Peace Prize process. Not as big as giving it to Trump, which would completely kill it forever, but pretty awful nevertheless.

"Three officers rushed towards her...while a fourth got out of their vehicle, which then rolled over the woman and one officer. The officer...got back into the driver’s seat and accelerated, running over the woman...The driver then reversed over the woman while the three officers stood in front"

"Stop resisting" - Toronto cop to woman just run over by a police SUV. www.thestar.com/news/gta/wom...

Holy fuck, I just saw the video. I won't embed it but I think the worst part is a Toronto Police officer, after RUNNING SOMEONE OVER with a 5,000 pound SUV, starts instinctively yelling "stop resisting!" as a person lies on the pavement in agony

New: A federal appeals court found "undue delay" by US District Judge Aileen Cannon in resolving months-old requests to lift her order blocking full disclosure of ex-special counsel Jack Smith's report on the criminal investigations into President Trump — and gave her 60 days to act buff.ly/V07o9OT

First shared w/Reuters: The NAACP has sued Virginia state election officials, accusing them of disenfranchising students by rejecting voter registration forms from students that do not include details like dormitory names, room numbers and campus mailbox information. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

This is as much an indictment of the DC press corps as it is of Johnson.

Pretty good sign this is bullshit is that it would be 6 times higher than the number of people who left New York in the midst of a once-in-a-century pandemic. comptroller.nyc.gov/wp-content/u...

This sports section is truly embarrassing.

Zohran Mamdani campaigned a lot and appears not to hate the voters whose support he's seeking. Here's what other Democrats can learn from his unorthodox strategy.

24hrs ago: Hell yeah, an extra hour of weekend. Now: Where did the sun go? This sucks.

We had a lot fewer kids for Halloween this year and you know what that means, a TON of leftover rainbow fentanyl.

He didn’t! Trump played far more often in his first term (260+ in four years versus Obama’s 330+ over eight years) — and is playing *more often* this time around. Term 1: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202... Term 2: www.pbump.net/o/an-officia...

The tunnel first opened in 1930 and was considered, at the time, to be an engineering marvel. windsornewstoday.ca/windsor/news...

Beginning to wonder if the Nobel Peace Prize can ever recover from this.

Remember when Joe Biden rode to the presidency on the back of BLM protests in the summer of 2020, and then immediately turned around and called for hiring 100,000 more police officers?
