Canary in the coal mine: FBI Director Kash Patel ended the bureau's long-standing partnership with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). His announcement came after the ADL faced right-wing backlash for its web pages on the Christian Identity movement and Turning Point USA. #antisemitism

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

This is ethnic cleansing. This regime has its tentacles out for every corner in which freedom might ring and is circling the wagons around their vulnerabilities. We must attack those vulnerabilities with protests and raising awareness among the sleeping masses of what is happening.

Jared Kushner's good buddies.

It's also generally not great practice to talk shit about the city you're swooping in to cover. People will remember these things the next time you try to make our home a stage!

Shocking to watch "Chicago Fire" and realize that the writers are making the Gop case that blue cities' police depts can't handle crime, not so subtly suggesting that the regime is right to send troops to blue cities. #propaganda #NBC

⚠ In short, the ICE officer who was LOUDLY relieved of duty Fri. for violently shoving a woman to the ground last week, was QUIETLY reinstated yesterday. Today, ICE agents at the SAME facility sent a journalist to the hospital.

Neguse: "I would challenge anyone to make sense of the rantings and ravings you just heard from the president. These are not serious people tweeting out offensive videos last night on Truth Social ... I think it's important for all of us to acknowledge what we see with our own eyes"

DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files. My team has now filed motions to defend those states against this attack on federalism in 6 of those states: ME, MI, MN, NH, OR and PA. I suggest that tomorrow DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining two: CA and NY.

I saw a brown creeper (immature, I think) on the ground at State and Hubbard in Chicago yesterday afternoon trying to find a foothold on a metal barrier. After a bit, it flew to a light pole and hung on for a bit, then flew off. I hope it found a tree. (Not my photo.) #birds #Chicagobirding #birding

For the generals yesterday, resistance meant total silence. And I thank them for it. But for the rest of us, silence is cowardice. Silence in the face of this daily onslaught against democracy, the rule of law, pluralism, the Constitution, and basic human decency is utter cowardice.

Liars gonna lie.

NEW — An estimated 40 people were taken by federal agents in an overnight raid in South Shore, a predominantly-Black neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side. A couple who live nearby said they were shocked to see the enormous militarized raid in their community. thetriibe.com/2025/09/feds...

From Yair Rosenberg's article in The Atlantic about a two-state solution and the move to recognize a Palestinian state. #Israel #Palestine

Interesting article, one that gives me a wider perspective on the future of a two-state solution: www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

I don't want 100 troops sent to Chicago. It's a major escalation that must be opposed. I also want folks to understand that the agents that have been attacking us at Broadview are more heavily armed and elaborately, tactically outfitted than National Guard troops would be. We're already in some shit

Chicago, brace for it. Every building surrounding Trump Tower will be leveled in these training exercises. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

A typical Gop scam.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Court-watchers confirm this cruel ICE agent has been reinstated. Last week, in the briefest moment of decency, violently throwing a woman to the floor was “beneath the men and women of ICE.” This week, it’s back to business as usual. The cruelty, after all, is the point.

A great read.

More bullsh_t from the federal government.

Live news conference by Gov. Pritzker, Mayor Johnson, AG Raoul, Cook County Board Pres. Preckwinkle about the military invasion of Chicago and surrounding towns. Stand against the fear mongerers working for this outlaw regime. #AbolishICE

Missouri's Governor just signed the GOP's illegal map. It will now be sued.

Prosecute the hell out of these officially sanctioned rioters!

A lesson for Americans fighting our current regime.

Some of the extremely aggressive behavior we've seen this weekend can be tied to specific DHS units in town, as people have surely noticed. We are working on outlining some of these for people, just need a bit more time.

We must recognize how precarious this moment is. But we must not perpetuate the Trumpists’ assertions of strength and dominance. For now, the gap between their authoritarian aspirations and the reality of U.S. society remains significant. That’s where the counter can yet happen.

How dare they! These cosplay soldiers are complete failures as human beings.

I am sick and tired of reading posts by elected officials condemning the shootings that happen every day in this f_cking country and saying Americans should be safe in their own towns and that something must be done. This crap is no better than thoughts and prayers. DO SOMETHING, you gutless sh_ts.

At the Hyde Park Jazz Festival today - the Chicago Asian American Ensemble pictured here. Also heard the wonderful teens of the Kenwood Academy Jazz Band.

Several of us went to Broadview tonight to scope out the situation for ourselves. What we witnessed was a completely peaceful—even uneventful—protest/gathering, until the exact moment ICE unleashed a totally unprovoked and unwarranted tear-gas attack.

Lies, lies, lies. They don't even try to find out the truth. So angry I could blow a blood vessel.

@yourstorymatters.bsky.social has been doing phenomenal work OTG in Chicago (mostly over on Instagram), documenting assaults on the press and protesters. Last night a needed lens disappeared in the chaos. If you picked up this Sigma, get in touch! account.venmo.com/u/jon_stegenga

ICE is planning a "shitshow" in Broadview, Ill. This is our government! The U.S. government making war on its citizens.

So I watched DEATH IN VENICE for the gazillionth time. #Visconti #ThomasMann #DirkBogarde #filmsky 📽️

If you have to cover up who you're honoring, maybe you shouldn't be honoring them.

Fascists

Sunlight is the best disinfectant, as they say. Let ALLLLLL the names start coming out. All of 'em. I don't give a fuck who they are. Anyone and everyone that was part of Epstein's club need to be exposed and held accountable. Period. Believe the victims. sports.yahoo.com/article/76er...

SAD!!

About to become a hell hole.
