BREAKING: A federal jury in Brooklyn awarded our clients — 674 immigrants unlawfully jailed by the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office — $112 million. Could not be more proud to work at @latinojustice.bsky.social and to partner with the talent of Winston & Strawn.

“Our teacher said, ‘Every time you think of her, give something away or do something kind.’ And I said, ‘Then I’d be giving things away nonstop.’ And he said, ‘So?’” youtu.be/F-xd5kjMGI8?...

BREAKING NEWS: We just secured a final court order blocking National Guard deployment! Today's ruling is a huge victory for Oregon. The courts are holding this administration accountable to the truth and the rule of law.

I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

“Shocks the conscience” is a legal term of art. In this case it’s a pretty good description of the typical reaction to these paramilitary goon squads. Shocking.

The only thing I care about in a president for 2028 is holding every one of these people accountable under the law in the harshest manner possible. Anything short of that is a waste of time.

These, these, these are the words youtu.be/KhaEt2Hdod8?...

Jeanine Pirro tried to make an example of Sean Dunn. She ended up delivering a hero to Washington, D.C. www.huffpost.com/entry/dc-san...

I think a lot about the story Carl Reiner told: he’d have been a sewing machine repairman if not for a free WPA drama class. That led to other theater work, to Sid Caesar, to Mel Brooks, and all the rest. All because of one free class paid for by a government that felt the arts were worth teaching.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

Portland taqueria feeding folks during the shutdown/immigration threats. Sounds like they could use support to keep going as well, if any Portland folks are looking for ways to help rn.

Hope someone tells this guy to file a Torta Claim Notice.

1) It's interesting that Shapiro doesn't ever substantiate what words Mamdani has used that were "hurtful"— and he implicitly concedes this by then tacking on "used around him by others" 2) This is the posture of a presidential candidate who knows that his position on this is increasingly unpopular

Eleven more not guilties and America gets a free sandwich!

As for the testimony of Border Patrol Chief Patrol Greg Bovino: Ellis: "Defendant Bovino admitted that he lied about whether a rock hit him before he deployed tear gas in Little Village." When Bovino threw a second tear gas canister at the crowd, the crowd was running away.

It's worth emphasizing how cowardly these thugs are. It's unprofessional and shitty to escalate a situation and start a fight, but these aren't even fights—if anyone fights back they're facing federal felony charges— it's just beating up totally defenseless people.

A ‘Mamdani Monitor’?? Zohran RESPONDS to the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt for vowing to “track” his admin for antisemitism. “I have some doubts in Jonathan's ability to do so honestly, given that he previously said I had not visited any synagogues only to have to correct himself.” zeteo.com/subscribe

trying to find this but I'm pretty sure ICE claimed that they were scared they would be literally guillotined when portland protesters made a prop guillotine lol. you fucking bet they included the guillotine in their supposed 8000% increase in threats

i keep bitching about this but i ran a version of this on Friday without being patronizing or sounding like a boomer but now the NYT version is the one that keeps getting shared

Spent way too long trying to put the Dark Brandon laser eyes on a Laurelhurst Park tree, lol… You get the idea.

To spell it out a bit more: Redistricting works by taking safe seats and "spreading the wealth" to competitive ones. Republicans are discovering that there wasn't nearly as much wealth to go around as they'd hoped—so instead of turning competitive seats safe, they've turned safe seats competitive

i wouldn't be a total glenn youngkin hater if i didn't mention that the results tonight mean that his total tenure amounted to presiding over the destruction — at least for the next few years — of the virginia republican party. lmao.

I have said many times that I think the fundamental divide in the Democratic Party is between those who think we should go back to 2015 and those who already wanted better in 2015

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

You have 58 minutes to find a drop box! Get there (just don't take the 8 @fixthel8.bsky.social)

This is why Chuck has NO REASON to come back to the table. Let them twist. If you're coming back with wins this big during a shutdown, the people know where their bread is buttered. Don't throw them a lifeline. These aren't tiny margin wins. They're blowouts.

Zohran Mamdani was the first mayoral candidate and Democratic official to stand up to the Trump administration over the arrest and disappearance of Mahmoud Khalil, which he saw as a violation of the First Amendment.

Decision Desk has called the New Jersey governors race for Mikie Sherill. Yet another state where millions of dollars in anti trans ads didn't work.

Knowing them, they’re going to use this as pretense to bring back mustard gas.

This is, as ever, an excellent piece by Julianne—I braced myself for anguish at learning what’s being lost, but I also learned about a lot of great community violence intervention (CVI) programs, and I appreciate the note she ends on.

Methinks that in looking at things spiritual, we are too much like oysters observing the sun through the water

685,000 NYPD stops on the predicate of collecting guns. Only 2% produced weapons. 85% of stops involved Black & Latino men. 3 terms with Bloomberg. Now these same wealthy New Yorkers insist that young & working class voters defer to the alleged “superior” judgment of the millionaires & billionaires.

we ended up where we are now for a number of reasons, but one was that Dick Cheney realized he could go on camera, lie about saying things he’d previously said on camera, and TV interviewers would just sputter

Silksong players only think Bilewater is bad because of the name. If it was called Candy Town everyone would love it.

In honor of Dick Cheney, go out there and get your friends to publicly apologize to *you* for hurting them on a hunting trip.

Neo-conservativism presaged Trumpian neo-fascism in several respects. It saw violence as a positive policy option not a defensive last resort. It held laws, norms and the lives of non-white people in total contempt. And many, many centrists either cringed in deference to it or actively collaborated.

Ben Shapiro was just ratioed by Nick Fuentes on X after Shapiro called out Tucker Carlson and Fuentes for their antisemitism. The neo nazi right is fully taking over the republican party.

BREAKING: Diane Ladd, a three-time Oscar nominee known for roles in “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore” and “Wild at Heart,” dies at 89, daughter Laura Dern announces.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
