OH MY FUCKING GOD

This is my personal leafblowers hate. When I'm on the freeway in Los Angeles, which often has 8 fucking lanes, at least 75% of the other drivers are texting away and not even looking at the road at all. Fucking insanity.

Seems like she's likely to be even more likely to say *anything* for a pardon now, since it can no longer potentially impact this case.

What if SCOTUS just took a sabbatical this term and let the lower courts handle everything for a while?

One of the questions posed by NYT to a panel of 50 legal experts - note that at least 1 of the "experts" answered "Trump is not using power excessively" www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/m...

HAPPENING NOW: Judge Karin Immergut hears emergency arguments as California and Oregon seek to block President Trump's deployment of federalized California National Guard troops to Portland. 🧵

“hey siri, how many Rs are in you’ll never be loved-berry?”

There's a lot of context that I think has been somewhat understandably missed in the initial reporting. The building was almost certainly in bad shape before the raid, and besides the Venezuelans, occupied mostly by very poor, vulnerable people. But I kind of think that makes it worse

your state troopers are attacking protesters and journalists at broadview!!! stop posting and do something!!

I’d check with The Shadow

Lindsey Halligan, the attorney selected by Donald Trump to bring criminal charges against James Comey, has never prosecuted a case. But, like Trump, she did get her start in reality TV — with a brief cameo on South Beach Tow. Here is Halligan’s newly resurfaced TV moment:

This is one of the coolest election prep sites I've ever seen

Also: it makes zero sense to do a "deal" on any spending when Trump has already proven he will impound appropriated money at any time for any reason and SCOTUS has said repeatedly that him doing so is fine

It's not just bribery. He's now using personal litigation, backed by state extortion, to extract "settlements" which he then puts into an account he created to spend on government work, all entirely outside of Congress taxing or appropriating. It's full Charles I illegal taxation and spending.

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’” It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

Mark Zuckerberg has a vision for how A.I. could be used in Meta's universe. But the actor and filmmaker Joseph Gordon-Levitt is here to point out a flaw in the technology: an apparent lack of guardrails around how the company's chatbot interacts with underage users. nyti.ms/3ILwCNo

They are stealing taxpayer dollars from blue states because Democrats in Congress refuse to give Trump a blank check for his authoritarianism. Corruption. Coercion. Blackmail. Lawlessness.  I won’t bend the knee to a wannabe dictator and his cronies. We will prevail.

Let's annotate: 1. Who did it? Clearly assigns blame. 2. Why did the culprits do it? Motive. 3. What must be done in response?

New bench slap just dropped. They are coming at a truly astonishing rate. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Judge Young: "This case ... squarely presents the issue whether non-citizens lawfully present here in United States actually have the same free speech rights as the rest of us. The Court answers this Constitutional question unequivocally 'yes, they do.' 'No law' means 'no law.'"

hi, federal judge expert here! this is not funny. conservative, Reagan-appointed district judges only use epistolary framing devices in their opinions when they are in extreme distress.

Omg. I’ve never seen anything like this in a judicial opinion:

i'm guessing this is for his buddies who have been accused of war crimes or blatant racism

Same as it ever was.

This is, quite honestly, among the most devastatingly depressing things I have ever seen

This was always the funniest conspiracy theory to me — that there are MRI machine-like devices that can cure all known illnesses in seconds, but the government has been hiding them — and Trump just posted an AI generated video of himself announcing they're real. We're cooked!

This is shockingly really posted, without context, on his page. What the actual fuck? Like, it appears to be some AI nonsense but his cult are going to believe this crap and claim he's saving them or something...

@govpritzker.illinois.gov what authority does ICE have to manage use of public roads? That sounds like a job for local and state law enforcement. Not ICE.

Hey Ted? Have you looked outside lately? There's troops in the streets. The only negotiating any Democrat should be doing is for the complete reversal of this admins actions to date and tangible actions from your "colleagues" to help reassert control over this out of control executive branch.

What The Fuck Are You DOING

The only reason Wedge isn't the most awesome pilot character in the franchise is because of Pops. Pops, of course, had the advantage of flying the coolest airframe.

on the one hand, this joke is a bit lazy. otoh, i have no idea how else you respond to "war ravaged Portland"

Defund the Supreme Court.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Don't let Dems vote for a single additional piece of legislation under this admin. No deal will be honored. Shut. It. Down.

this was the trade for kimmel

A very big Onion announcement: The Onion has spent the last two months working on a masterpiece. It's a documentary titled Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile. It's so good, in fact, we were set to release it in theatres nationwide on October 2nd. Then two weeks ago, Charlie Kirk was shot.

Pundits would stop talking about it. (Seriously, though, the ability to turn off re-skeets for individual users that you follow.)

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

So what does he want to happen when *this* happens?

John Morton and Dan Campbell put together an excellent Offensive Gameplan on Monday Night. It was the perfect mix of Old-School Physical Run Game with timely Trick Plays to create Explosives! Here are a few of my favorite designs: 🧵

Do any of the professors or journalists or teachers also get their jobs back or nah

The chart was shut off at midnight on Dec 31, 1999 to avoid Y2K issues.

From the broadcast: The last time the Ravens allowed a 95+-yard touchdown drive was 2001. The Lions have done it twice tonight.

I’m gonna start a cooking show where I make recipes I’ve never tried. I’m gonna call it 30 Minutes My Ass.

they’re putting Kimmel back on the air. I would now like to see the same amount of outrage for the firing of professors for their statements

Important to note that Congress has never passed any law giving the President authority to designate anything as a “domestic terrorist organization.” As a result, this would appear to have no direct legal effect beyond acting as a statement of policy for the Executive Branch.

PERSONAL POST: I am a parent of a teenager on the autism spectrum. I am literally sitting in my car right now waiting for her to finish up ABA therapy, which she does regularly each week. I won’t watch this abomination of a press conference by Trump/RFK. But media can quote me: “Burn in Hell.”

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.
