The Israeli military expanded its airstrikes on central Beirut on Wednesday, destroying buildings and sending residents fleeing from neighborhoods that had been considered safe, in a sharp escalation of its campaign against Hezbollah, the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

I'm ashamed of Our President.🙄🇺🇸 Hes not a President.💩🙄

Two members of DOGE were flagged for working with a group trying to overturn election results. trib.al/8xGflGf One of them allegedly signed an agreement that could have involved using Social Security data to match with state voter rolls.

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, are you watching this press conference? Would you happen to know any journalists with experience in writing about cognitive health?

A reminder how ICE treats priests.

IMO, and undoubtedly others around the world...there is NO difference. And, check this out...a $50M reward for the capture/kidnap of Maduro. Will #47 claim the reward for himself? I think so...how about you? www.state.gov/wanted-narco... #ProudBlue #DV1 #Pinks

FlightAware is based on transponders as far as I know. So would more likely indicate planes have been told to avoid the area.

Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office. He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people. Release the transcript.

Workers in the Soledad area are harvesting celery. These workers often develop chronic back pain due to the repetitive motion. "Raul" shares, "We don't have time to rest or stand for more than two or three seconds." #WeFeedYou

According to a new analysis by Democrats on the Joint Economic Committee, the average American family has paid more than $700 in higher costs per month since Trump took office. Remember when Trump said he would end inflation on "day one"?

A 35-year-old Republican congressman high on cocaine paid a homeless 17-year-old girl $400 to have sex with him while she was under the influence of drugs and alcohol. That’s statutory rape. But Trump nominated the congressman, Matt Gaetz, to be Attorney General of the United States.

So dark. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics. It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history. It corrupts our political system every day.

The Epstein Recess continues.

Angus: Canada is reconsidering that relationship with China. Why? Because we can no longer trust the US. And we know that we have 150, maybe more, Canadians in custody at ICE detention centers. We had two Canadians under Chinese custody and it caused a huge outcry. We now have over 150 in the US.

Senate Democrats introduced two bills that would have paid ALL federal workers, from military and law enforcement to Social Security workers. Republicans blocked both of them.

Summarily smashing part of the White House without announcing it “threatens the fundamental idea of the republic—government by the people and for the people, conducted in public view,” Jake Lundberg argues.

What happened to lowering prices from day one? Trump sold us out for corporations & his billionaire friends. So much for America first.

it's hard to Nazi what's going on here

However you define political violence, the right is responsible for more of it. The Anti-Defamation League (hardly a left-wing org) found that all “domestic extremist-related killings” in 2022 were done by right-wing extremists, the vast majority (84%) white supremacists. trib.al/J3lQyoE

We are at the point in the honoring-Charlie-Kirk's-memory cycle when faculty are being fired for posting, without comment, Charlie Kirk's words. At the behest of politicians sworn to uphold the first amendment, and in public institutions covered by first amendment protections.

Fox has to go. Other countries have banned it, so can we.

I just saw a comment that said "I don't support what happened to Charlie, but Charlie supported what happened to Charlie." THAT ... that's what I've been trying to put into words.

Wow! Listen to this list of acts of political violence. It’s not even complete, but sobering AF. Now, Charlie Kirk was shot and killed in front of a crowd, and the video is all over social media. This needs to stop.

Losing my goddamned mind. We can condemn political violence without valorizing a destructive, hateful bigot.

"Hakeem Jeffries and the Democrats, they are cleaning up. They're raising record amounts of money... We're dealing with maggots, vermin and swine here. This is not – these are not good people, they're not even a little bit good. They are coming after our throats." - Charlie Kirk

Bad decision @msnbc.com

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

Spencer Kuvin, Epstein's victims' lawyer, says the FBI interviewed 40+ girls, some just 14, and prepared a 54-count indictment. Then came the secret plea deal that let Epstein walk. Those interviews are in the files. Kuvin says Alan Dershowitz scoured the girls' MySpace pages to smear them as liars.

Fascinating that next year’s Senate race in South Carolina will probably come down to a woman who performs spinal procedures running against a man with no spine.

“They went skedaddle. You know the word skedaddle? It means skedaddle.” -President of the United States

Sen. Warren Daniel (R–NC, District 46) was caught trading stocks right on the Senate floor. Didn’t even wait for a break. Playing the market on the taxpayers’ time…pure abuse of power.

Avelo Airlines profits off Trump’s terror tactics by running secretive (often illegal) deportation flights. We’re organizing to ground “ICE Air” and make Avelo’s deportation flights too costly to continue: www.groundavelo.org?utm_source=b...

Alan Dershowitz setup Epstein 'Sweetheart Deal' w/ Acosta, in part to protect himself. Before Trump was in rape case w/ Epstein (2016). Once elected, Trump added Alex Acosta to his admin bsky.app/profile/chri...

Gov. McMaster seeks to ban buying candy, unhealthy drinks with SNAP benefits #scnews

Don't feel like doing a repost that puts the murder video on the timeline yet again but do feel like repeating the point that the president just straight-up assassinated 11 people for supposedly doing something that wouldn't be a death-penalty crime if they were caught and convicted
