PSA: The No Kings PAC is not affiliated with and had no role in putting on the 10/18 mobilization. If you get a spammy text from them claiming your donation will be 5x matched, know that it's not from anyone involved in the No Kings protest (and please direct your angry emails to them, not us)

Utah has just approved a 1,300-person “mega camp” for homeless individuals,This camp lacks transportation, features locked units, and even imposes forced labor. They refer to this facility as “work-conditioned housing,” but we simply call it what it is: modern-day internment.

nothing gets past you, does it?

This week’s main story details what Medicare Advantage is, why it basically has all the pitfalls of private insurance, and what a Mountain Chicken is. And if you don’t already know what a Mountain Chicken is, go ahead and visualize a “Mountain Chicken” in your head now. Great. It’s not that.

New from me: Elite law firms, multiple media outlets, the D.C. attorney general, and a group of parents accused a teacher of molesting 15 kids. They were wrong. This piece is two-and-a-half years in the making. And as you'll see, it took some incredible turns, even as I was reporting it.

With Alpe d'Huez back in the Tour de France, this replica model commemorates Beat Breu's stage win there in 1982 with Breu alone in the lead just before the arch. It's got a Dutch corner and plenty of other details. It's about a metre long. Best of all Breu made it himself

Why isn’t the dem party doing Reagan ads? Stop asking us for donations.

UPDATE: This ad just ran again during the World Series 🇨🇦 You know why? BECAUSE IT IS NOT FAKE. Reagan said it. Trump is lying.

James Tate All this talk of a ballroom to service the super wealthy while the rest of us continue to pay more for healthcare and basic essentials makes me think of this powerful political cartoon from 1906, the artist is William Balfour Ker.

Thank you to everyone that has helped with the Pesto emergency expenses. She’s doing okay. Mainly holding steady at the moment

“When the Dobbs thing happened and everyone was talking about, ‘I don’t know what to do,’ I just went on Facebook and asked friends, like, ‘I have an airplane, and I can help people move across the country to get where they need to be.’”

The New England Journal of Medicine and the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy will be publishing regular public health alerts to replace the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, which has been paused due to the federal government shutdown.

I cannot stress enough: If you are helping hide kids from ICE DO NOT POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT HOW YOU ARE HELPING KIDS HIDE FROM ICE. Especially do not describe where and how you helped kids hide from ICE under your own name from a verified account with the STREET AND TOWN! Good Lord...

🔥 @mehdirhasan.bsky.social : “The great irony is Trump is the son of an immigrant, grandson of an immigrant, married to an immigrant… in fact, 2 of his 3 wives were immigrants— proving yet again immigrants will do the jobs even Americans aren’t willing to do.” 😬🙃

What he's saying obliquely is, even if we can't enforce the Hatch Act to get people fired from the Administration, Bluesky totally CAN kick people off for violating it ON HERE. But only if you report it.

By my count: Of the 15 Departments of the US Government, 13 launched new BlueSky accounts tonight (all but Justice and HUD), and all 13 have posted explicitly partisan political posts blaming Democrats and/or Chuck Schumer for the government shutdown.

US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky. Block on sight. Protect your digital space. Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them. The detach quote function will come in very handy here…

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings. These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate. Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

During the week a dog named Bunsen texts his family. Those texts are saved. Today they are shared. This is Texts From Bunsen!

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

NEW: We obtained recordings from a crisis pregnancy center conference where anti-abortion law firms like Alliance Defending Freedom admit that CPCs are free to make referrals for abortion pill "reversal" at the same time they claim they’re being censored.
