NEW: The FTC is removing blog posts, authored by Lina Khan, including some that articulate the potential risks that commercial AI tools pose to consumers.

Stay woke friends

Political parties must shift immediately and dramatically to the left to avoid alienating these frustrated and abandoned young women. Am I doing this right?

“You can win elections by tacking to the middle; lots of people have. But you can also win elections by staking a moral position and convincing people to agree with you. You can earn support by demonstrating what is important to you instead of just being determined to nod along with what you hear.”

Dallas didn’t disappoint. #NoKings

NSPM-7 is already resulting in fed arrests of protesters: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/no-kings-p...

ICE continues their terror campaign today as people protest in mass. Border Patrol was seen in Blue Island, and at the O'Hare rideshare lot again. Sightings in southeast side. A truck with a smashed window in Villa Park. Right now, they're hunting people on the southwest side.

#NoKings Miami!

Oh they’re really protecting the pedophiles this is bad

We are very excited to announce: HYPERBEAT releases October 22nd!

NEW: We obtained a trove of emails detailing Jeffrey Epstein’s relationship with the Wall Street billionaire Leon Black. The messages show Epstein demanding tens of millions of dollars from Black, insulting his children and advising on a settlement with a woman. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/b...

Please if anyone recognizes this woman taken next to Gilbert’s and the car wash today, Friday 10/17 around 10:00 am. Please reach out to her family and @eltragon.bsky.social can connect them to a local rapid response group with resources.

🧵 The United Auto Workers have endorsed Graham Platner for the United States Senate in Maine. As a U.S. military veteran, oyster farmer, and proud lifelong Mainer, @grahamformaine.bsky.social is a true fighter for the working class.

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

NEW: White House announces it's going to pause, and potentially cancel, $11 billion in infrastructure funding (via the Army Corps of Engineers), specifically citing cities, like New York, represented or led by Democrats. More to come.

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton. I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

This makes sense coming from the guy whose son monitors his porn consumption

Kind of ironic that they go “do you have your ID on you?” and the ICE guy is like are you fucking serious I guess this is communism USSR like lol who do you work for brother

Find a No Kings protest Saturday and go! Don't worry that you've never been to a protest before. Don't worry about being dressed wrong or looking out of place. Don't worry that you don't agree about everything -- or even about much -- with lots of people at the protest. /1

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly. Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested. Stay safe out there.

In 2024, I wrote a story for Texas Monthly about Michelle Haas, whose complaints resulted in the removal of books about slavery from historic Texas slave plantations. Haas sued us, alleging defamation, and was represented by the preferred lawyer of billionaire J.P. Bryan. Today, we won on appeal.

Still find it wild how they shut down USAID with no Congressional approval

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid," JD Vance. We checked. By scanning public records and media reports, Mother Jones determined the ages of eight of the 11 participants in the abhorrent leaked texts from young Republicans that Politico covered on Tuesday: They appear to range from 24 to 35.

the extent to which media elites treat liberal americans as if they do not count in the body politic is a real problem

Trump and Vought are now breaking both sides of spending law. They’re illegally not spending where the law requires them to spend, and they’re illegally spending where they don’t have the money to spend. What we have is an appropriations king. Spending “deals” are meaningless under that setup.

We are fighting for true freedom. The freedom to live a life of dignity and joy. A life of 80 hour work weeks, of constantly struggling to get by, being trapped in a shitty job by your health insurance — this is not freedom, and we are not free. But we could be. If we fight.

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

You’ll notice that new developments in generative AI are always accompanied by new ways of depicting women without their consent—undermining their autonomy and harassing them—almost like it’s a pillar of the technology and its evolution

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?

The cost of holding down ACA premiums for a year is less than this…

New from 404 Media: the end of Windows 10 support is an e-waste disaster in the making. 400 million computers that cannot be upgraded to Windows 11 set to be cut off from receiving free security updates. Set to affect as many as 42% of all Windows computers worldwide. www.404media.co/the-end-of-w...

Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and DHS need to answer for their unchecked attacks on Chicago residents. ICE is an out-of-control danger to our peaceful communities. The images from the Sun-Times today speak for themselves.

here’s more context to the videos DHS is putting out from Chicago.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

While all of this (^ ongoing raids) is happening, a number of ICE watch groups have gone private for fear of potential removal from Facebook*. *yes we know Signal exists; the fact remains a very large Spanish speaking ICE watch community still exists on Meta/a lot of people still rely on it

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples? HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

Remember when Stephen Miller claimed the Chicago apartment raid was on a building “filled with Tren de Aragua terrorists”? Well, DHS has now dropped the number of alleged TdA members arrested in the building from 2 to 1.

To everyone who says, "But this won't matter": *MAKE IT MATTER.* You have that power! This is not inside baseball and your friends and neighbors will likely be appalled. And if they're *not* appalled, don't be cynical yourself. Take the lead, give the cue.

Whether it's young Democrats expressing their support for DEI or young Republicans saying "I love Hitler,' both sides have expressed controversial opinions.

israel has already broken the ceasefire

We're told at least one person was arrested—and later released with a citation for disorderly—by Broadview police for simply being on the Maywood side of 25th at Harvard St outside the ICE facility this morning. They were documenting agents coming and going as electeds have told people to do.

Why would a billionaire want a functioning paper? Functioning papers cover shit like “did you know this billionaire makes his workers pee into bottles instead of taking a break” and “you pay way more tax than a guy with ten yachts”

ICYMI — with electricity rates already skyrocketing, Trump just canceled the largest solar project in North America. Utah’s Republican governor seems to understand this is probably not the best idea: “This is how we lose the AI/energy race with China” 👇🏽
