Tracy Hoeg is a fraud. She advertises "orthobiologic" therapies on her website, ALL unapproved by FDA. Now she's in charge of CDER. She is a joke. Unqualified. Full-stop.

Another update on baby Chance, the child of Adriana Smith, a Georgia woman who was brain dead and turned into an incubator because of abortion bans. He’s still hospitalized and not going home anytime soon. What’s worse? His family are footing the bill. people.com/georgia-baby...

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars. She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

Israel still won’t let international journalists into Gaza.

Rightwing MAGA Christianity has about as much relation to the gospels as MAGA politics does to the Constitution. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

CHICAGO TEACHER: "This morning at 7:45, I marked a junior student absent—not because he was sick or overslept. ICE had snatched him up on his way to school. His main priority was getting his reading done for English class." (H/T @CTULocal1)

I wrote about Johnny Cash. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/the-empty-...

I wish I had something more profound to say in this Quote Post, but just wow. This essay starts with Johnny Cash and ends up in a limestone cave, it will defy and exceed any of your expectations going in to it. Brava, Sarah.

Megyn Kelly claimed Epstein was into “the barely legal type,” referring to 15 year-olds. So I wrote about how her comments highlight the ways both purity culture and rape culture sexualize young girls and make male desire their responsibility. www.liberalcurrents.com/the-barely-l...

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

Montage of 19 clips of Trump insulting, berating, demeaning and attacking female reporters over the past few months. Part 1.

If you’ve a survivor you already know how disorienting, humiliating, and crazy-making it is. Seeing it done publicly, on a world stage, is actually helping millions of survivors and therapists say: “See? That’s what it looks like. You’re not imagining it. You’re not ‘too sensitive.’ This is abuse.”

Part 2

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

"Agencies within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, including ICE, ERO, and CBP intend to implement a comprehensive plan to target Spanish-speaking churches across the country during the upcoming holiday season between Thanksgiving, Nov. 27, and Christmas, Dec. 25."

I am usually pretty unmoved by the president's failures of decorum, because I find it creepy that people are generally unmoved by fucked up presidential shit if it's discussed in a tasteful manner and everyone adheres to fancy, historic norms, but that "Quiet, Piggy" shit was something.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

wrote about trump not knowing why he got an MRI, and how his ignorance is not cognitive decline, but a deliberate choice for evil. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/mri-says-t...

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have just identified a powerful new antibiotic that is 100x STRONGER than existing drugs against deadly superbugs like MRSA and VRE. Hiding in a well-known soil bacterium, pre-methylenomycin C lactone KILLS drug-resistant bacteria WITHOUT triggering resistance.

@repdangoldman.bsky.social is the best. We need more members of Congress like him. 👏👏👏

I’m going to think about watching this moment unfold in real time for a long time. for all the horrors coming out of Chicago and its metro area, the principled courage of everyday people, in the face of such intimidation, never ceases to astonish. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/12/k...

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck? It's the Pope in 1982.

This email about Lavrov from Epstein is June 24, 2018. Less than one month later Pompeo met with Lavrov in Helsinki on July 16, 2018. Trump met with Putin the same place on the same day. I think we finally figured out What the Hell Happened in Helsinki.

"President Donald Trump’s federal law enforcement crackdown has hit a disgusting new low, after federal agents reportedly pepper-sprayed a 1-year-old in Chicago and then lied about it."

This constant drumbeat of "trust us, not your eyes" stuff gets exhausting, and I don't even live there.

Epstein in emails: Trump knew about the girls. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

Here’s video of federal agents doing a drive by pepper spraying that hit a father and his one-year old on Saturday when the Feds were hitting Little Village and Cicero

I'm gonna lose my fucking mind if Dick Durbin caves while they are assaulting our city, goddammit

This story now includes video, released by the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, of the baby being exposed to chemical irritants fired by federal agents from their convoy into the car she was riding in with members of her family near 26th Street and Ogden Avenue in Cicero.

WAKE THE FUCK UP

stunning. required watching.

This is longer, but a good understanding of how they are operating including the notorious ginger agent. They were driving unsafely with detained individuals and trying to cause accidents. There's a lot more and context, but completely inappropriate. No paperwork, www.youtube.com/watch?v=R115...

“And having answered so I turn once more to those who sneer at this my city, and I give them back the sneer” Judge Ellis today not only denounced the Trump administration’s immigration action, but had biting remarks on its clumsy views of Chicago itself UPDATE: www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/06/o...

ICE got dommed by a sub.

As Trump loses popularity, there will be an attempt to minimize what‘s happening in Chicago right now . THIS is the number one national issue — are you FOR or AGAINST a taxpayer-funded secret police terrorizing major cities?

We have a real democratic legitimacy problem. Armed agents of the state are being imposed into American cities, uninvited by state and local elected officials, and unwelcome by the local population. Basic checks on bad behavior (professional, hierarchal, legal) don't seem to exist.

Federal agents pulling a woman out of Rayito Del Sol, a daycare by Lane Tech high school

Imagine having a kid in this daycare who watches as their teacher is bodily dragged away by masked goons.

www.reddit.com/r/illinois/s... This is straight up Evil. They are DELIBERATELY terrorizing babies and toddlers and the rest of us (in private businesses!). This has to STOP! @govpritzker.illinois.gov @chrislhayes.bsky.social @durbin.senate.gov @duckworth.senate.gov

It would be nice if the sheer scale of the wipeout made a lot of people in government and around government pause and think to themselves “what happens to me if Democrats get subpoena power next year” when faced with illegal directives from a rotting administrative corpse

"Right now, Chicago is really putting on a clinic in bravery and relentlessness in terms of response." Yes, that's exactly right. Watch @maddow.msnbc.com on how our community has been fighting back against Trump's federal agents for EIGHT WEEKS now. youtu.be/QnFINw4KgB8?...

"the documents were so restricted that top Justice Department security officials reacted with surprise to the code names: They had never heard of them before. Some involved special access programs that required the president or a cabinet member to grant approval to view."

Post the good news when you see it…

Some context to the viral videos: Around 9am Friday, ICE/CBP *encircled* several square miles of a safe suburb and *stormed* it using multiple units. They were in cars, on foot in alleys & gangways, and in helicopters. They demanded papers, threatened residents, pointed guns, kidnapped people.
