NEW: DHS invoked the “national emergency” at the border to skirt competitive bidding rules for a $220 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign. We found that a firm with deep ties to Kristi Noem secretly benefited from the deal.

Perfect response from @neguse.house.gov here. Watch this.

My mom had stories of going to Clifton’s when she worked downtown in her first “real” job.

I would like to know how we can identify the specific persons at CNN who researched, wrote, edited, and approved this and hang it around their necks for the rest of their professional lives.

Important Content. (Alas, this documentary is not real. But as a fanvid, it's incredible.)

Why does this sound so au courant? Like, just replace the names and you're good to go... youtube.com/shorts/afTIp...

This is one of the weaknesses of civility politics, it falls for the form. That humiliating content farming is debate-shaped, we have to treat it as legitimate! Fox News is news-shaped, we have to treat it as legitimate! The Free Press is newspaper-shaped. etc etc.

“A growing number of scientists believe that the SARS-CoV-2 virus may instead be subtly altering our immune systems.” Is Covid-19 to blame for “the global surge in non-covid infections”? [bmj.com]

ktla.com/news/local-n... so a bunch of masked guys were brutally taking down a woman in public, and this dude towed their illegally parked car. Maybe if they didn't wear masks and showed actual fucking badges, this wouldn't happen. There's a GFM: gofund.me/02bd9e702

“Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America.”

Finally, someone came as the Dust Wife! With a chicken on top of her staff and everything! It was so amazing!

I don't know enough about OKC to comment on his performance as mayor, but I thought this essay was a great counterpoint to the MAGA approach. (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/08/20/o...

I had never heard of this incident and it's horrifying, and wildly not even the worst that could have happened.

The authoritarian shit is bad on its own, but let's not lose sight of the fact that this Texas law enforcement officer couldn't keep up with a 61-year-old out for her morning walk. Like the Nazis, these people are evil and pathetic at the same time. Don't miss any chance to mock them as losers.

Have we considered finding someone else's Dyson sphere and just running an extension cord?

And anyone who buys that load of BS, I have a lovely bridge for sale...

This is such a great look into the work that often gets glossed over in history. womenshistory.si.edu/blog/hazel-f...

I think what a lot of people really really don't understand is that at places with acceptance rates under ~10% there's ALWAYS going to be some luck involved. Swarthmore could fill its next class with ONLY HS class presidents w/4.0+ GPA & 99th pctile SAT & there would still be thousands rejected.

#Murderbot vid rec: a Sanctuary Moon vid by Murderbot, it's so so perfect

As you read CATO's report on how 65% of the people ICE has detained committed no crime, remember that @padilla.senate.gov was asking why Kristi Noem always invoked the same 6 cases when Noem's goons assaulted him. That's why. www.cato.org/blog/65-peop...

There's a great interview with Sabrina Wu, who plays Pin-Lee in #murderbot, here: www.autostraddle.com/sabrina-wu-i...

Trying to write about the Noem/Padilla thing and having difficulty even figuring out how to start. Or what kind of headline to write beyond "WHAT THE FUCK, THIS IS FUCKING CRAZY, STOP THE MADNESS"

It feels like the Trump administration is trying to speed run the corruption and authoritarian takeover of Russia following the demise of the USSR: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

Had some thoughts regarding the whole Abrego Garcia thing, how this proves they absolutely could have brought him back all along, combined with how weak the indictment appears to be.

Let’s ask his uncle www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

Ok so yeah, this has quickly become the #1 misunderstanding about the canceled grants the grants are not “subsidies” or “entitlements” to Harvard or Princeton or whatever they aren’t going into universities’ endowments they are competitive contracts won by these universities to do research

"...the most important parallel for how this kind of detention relates to those of concentration camps is in that it is done primarily to instill terror in the regime's opponents as a way to consolidate power." podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...

“It’s almost as though some members have been told how to vote, and they aren’t looking at the policy. They’re just following directions.” Our top story: Despite monumental opposition, Governor Greg Abbott finally made his goal of undermining public schools a reality ... with help from Trump.

"Most GOP accusations are projections." So their "he's a terrorist" claims make sense given that that the Trump administration is literally using terrorism as defined by Oxford: "The unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims."

I wrote about due process, and the lawless evil that results from doing away with it. There is no rationale and no justification for wishing away due process beyond just being soulless and evil. www.techdirt.com/2025/04/01/t...

this electrical transmission tower has a little problem. can you spot it? actually, it's not a small problem--it cost us 16.65 *billion* dollars and caused the deaths of 85 people.

I am absolutely loving the visuals so far! Love Tommy Arnold’s description of “a Coach bag crossed with an oven” re the branding 😂 A friend made this—they’re not on BlueSky so I said I’d share… ♥️

Microsoft's own research confirms something that was already pretty obvious: relying on a text generating machine to come up with answers erodes critical thinking, and is a method favoured by those who never liked doing critical thinking in the first place advait.org/files/lee_20...

1000% this. Public libraries are actually pretty radical--free to all, and based on the idea that info should be available to all. Get a library card! Use your library! Those numbers often play into their funding.
