Of everyone in this administration, I genuinely think Stephen Miller might be the most evil. And that's really saying something. If he lived in 1941, he'd be getting dragged to a camp still swearing undying fealty to Hitler. Just a completely amoral pathetic little toad.

WOW. The ex-wife of the ICE officer who shot a 26-year-old Colombian man in Maine has come forward to say that he had mental health issues and was abusive in their relationship. She says after the shooting he called asking her to vouch for him — instead, she went to the press.

Thesis: The only uniting theology of Christian Nationalism is decision theology.

the World Cup final will be between two teams that Cape Verde played even through 90 minutes

Burn ICE down and salt the earth.

this may be more of a narrative move than a policy move—it’s not about vehicle stops, it’s about violence with impunity www.cnn.com/2026/07/14/u... (link to live update source)

the real story behind this viral photo is even more heartbreaking than the one the public created.

When it happens, please remember that those of us who published lengthy books about January 6 explicitly said that month—and every month after—that the Insurrection never ended and Trump would eventually move to end our democracy permanently. We've been saying it for five years.

For the curious: Battlebots has a new season on YT. Look up Pro League.

I’m going to say this until I’m blue in the face: if Senate Dems leave Schumer in place until November, Trump will definitely steal the election and Schumer will let him.

I really want to stop with politics for a minute. I really do. But idk how honestly. It’s in everything, and it’s way too consequential to just ignore or pretend like it doesn’t matter. But it’s really wearing me down.

Reminder there is no evidence that any initial statements by ICE or DHS should be trusted — and reporters should state that in all coverage and stories. Every ICE shooting we’ve seen the agency lie about the circumstances.

Me when the salad hits differently:

the bread is $13.50 and all the circuses are subscription based

Democratic Senators praising their friend across the aisle Lindsey Graham, pretending Mike Lee doesn’t already have draft tweets for every one of them, calling them all pedo traitors

Now that Lindsey Graham is dead, some really salacious gossip about him is already being revealed. For instance, did you know that he worked closely with a convicted rapist to turn America fascist? Juicy stuff!

remember, be careful what you post on a day like this. If you do it right, you can get illegally fired for being disrespectful to Lindsay Graham and then win a massive lawsuit about 10 months from now and retire with 2 million in your pocket

Without a shred of loss or loyalty in return for all those years of sycophancy. Wow. “To get the man's soul and give him nothing in return — that is what really gladdens our Father's heart.” — Screwtape

Shame was apparently the load bearing wall beneath our entire democratic experiment and the "has cancel culture gone to far" people blew it up. It turns out you can have democracy or say slurs but actually not both. And they chose the slurs.

Ah, there's the reason.

If you’re going to mock Conor McGregor tonight make sure you mention he’s a rapist; too many peoole have forgotten.

ICE does not deny that it's pressuring key eyewitnesses to the shooting of Lorenzo Araujo to agree to deportation without a court hearing, and instead offers no responsive comment at all.

Oooh, mixing it up by tanking the markets on a Friday instead of a Tuesday

Not too bad a spot for a work break.

Lorenzo Salgado lived here longer than I’ve been alive, married to his wife of 30 years. Worked a blue collar job building houses to put his three kids through college. A real American and the kind of man they tell you you’re supposed to be. Fascism is so perverse.

Nothing makes one-quarter as patriotic as watching a bunch of outstate Minnesotans with wraparound sunglasses queue for an hour for their Somali Street Fries

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

Me Too did not go far enough.

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

New footage shows an ICE agent shooting a peaceful protester at close range with a pepperball gun.

Michelle Tafoya bullied me about my miscarriage a couple of years ago when my book came out and I let it go then, but now she’s running for public office. I believe that CHARACTER MATTERS in politics and Minnesota can do better. youtu.be/swye0gjhWHg?...

I don't know, man, I think if Joe Biden had kept confusing Zelenskyy with Putin and Iran with Japan, the media might have made a pretty big deal about it?

"Lorenzo Salgado Araujo did not deserve to be killed by ICE agents. Mohammad Nazeer Paktiawal did not deserve to die in ICE custody. These deaths—and many others—are a direct effect of mass deportation. That policy embodies the cruelty of the Trump administration." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

I spoke to Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes this morning and he told me that many funny people online have already done this bit and that I’m late to the party and should fuck off.

Here's Anthony Edwards showin up to present the game ball for Argentina vs Egypt. Just another random side question lol

look is trump the reason they lost? idk. is it possible all this noise affected the team? seems possible to me. is it important to blame him for every bad thing no matter what? 100% absolutely

RonalD'OH!

it is time again to revel in sad Cristiano Ronaldo.

And the Cult of Ronaldo has a sad. #schadenfreude

Trump going to FIFA and asking that a guy, who his his administration thinks should not be a US citizen, be allowed to play is the funniest part about all of this, and I hope that angle of the story breaks through to people outside of the US

Important corollary to my World Cup cheering taxonomy: Brazil and Argentina are exempt from the South America bump.

He just said “the Vikings are through to the next round” and it’s been a while since I have heard that sentence

For most of us, seeing the Klan 2.0, a.k.a. Patriot Front, march through Washington, D.C., unchallenged by authorities overshadowed any celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. My ancestors lived through this. And no one today can say with a straight face that racism is behind us.
