Federal agents raided the WRONG HOME in Portland—no warrant, guns drawn on a family with a baby. ICE still arrested 2 people after realizing the mistake. ICE official on the aggressive tactics: "If people interpret that as aggressive, so be it."

During our Signal exchange, I twice asked Halligan why the Letitia James indictment refers to "thousand(s)" of dollars in rental income reported on "tax form(s)." She did not respond. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

This might be the most ridiculous thing the Reagan Foundation has done (and it's a long list). Reagan made and the WH recorded those addresses while in office; they are presidential records, in the public domain; no one needs to seek the private foundation's permission. It has no "legal options."

This is far from the most important issue here, but the Ontario govt was under no obligation to "seek...permission to use and edit" any recording of Ronald Reagan that is in the U.S. National Archives/Reagan Library, as is the case here. And the Reagan Foundation has *no* relevant role here.

Here's the kind of sanctions avoidance Changpeng Zhao facilitated, from his sentencing memo. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

Third party funds must be deposited in the U.S. Treasury and appropriated by Congress and apart from that I believe service members aren’t allowed to accept outside compensation so

They're going to ram data centers through no matter what because the tech and fossil factions are aligned and pushing together.

This tells you that Bill Ackman is a repugnant gutter racist.

This enrages me. Honestly, you should just roll up the paper, throw it in the trash can, and join the White House Office of Communications if this is what you’re going to do these days.

Enten: "Trump is doing absolutely awful in the minds of the American people. We're talking about new lows. CNBC, -13 net approval on the economy. It's -19 among Quinnipiac ... He's not just beating himself with record lows -- this is the lowest for any president ever."

Donald Trump's wildly inappropriate reaction to this (quite impressive) piece of Reaganite advertising ought to cause so many people to view the ad he doesn't want them to see that we'll have to rename the Streisand Effect the Ontario Effect.

Ontario launches the perfect ad. Canadians are true brothers 💙🇨🇦

For use in your conversations with the uneducated ___ The $376M White House renovation under Obama: • Approved by Congress in 2008 while Bush was president • Spread over 4 years. • Renovations included replacing outdated heating, cooling, electrical, & fire safety systems • No bribes accepted

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House. Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

What is the Times doing calling this extrajudicial murder spree “cartel strikes”? On what evidence do they ape the killers’ propaganda? www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/u...

I checked the National Archives page for that Reagan video. It says that use is unrestricted. Here’s how NARA defines that: “Use ‘Unrestricted’ if there are no copyright, donor, or other use restrictions on the archival materials.”

The ad just edits to fit a one minute run time but of course the whole thing was the same substance. Reagan was an adamant free trader. also lol at the Foundation whining and blustering about how they didn't give permission. It's governmental, their private org doesn't own it, anyone can use it.

This is just one entry in a 16-part Bluesky series sharing what I learned about smart development aid while filming my 2020 public television special “Hunger & Hope: Lessons from Ethiopia and Guatemala.” The full hour is streaming free & ad-free on the @pbs.org app and at www.ricksteves.com/hunger.

Lessons from My Travels in Guatemala: Nutrition in the 1st 1000 days of life is critical. With a little education & access to nutritious food, mothers in the developing world can raise children who, instead of being “stunted,” become adults fully capable of contributing to their society’s economy.

Not simply fascism. Monarchism.

This is really not how any of this is supposed to work. Remembering how many times I was told "the government should never be picking winners and losers"... from many people who are in today's federal government.

@indivisiblepa.bsky.social Urges Senator Fetterman to ‘Open His Eyes’ to the Trump Administration’s Fascism | They accused the senator of “whitewashing the unconscionable actions" of this admin, like unleashing masked, militarized ICE agents to brutalize & terrorize immigrants and their communities.

Here's the Ronald Reagan ad from Canada that Trump calls "fake."

Trump is pissed about an ad that Canada recently ran in the U.S. showing Ronald Reagan talking about tariffs in 1987. “Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED.”

Tear-gassed high schoolers thrown in a van, driven off, released hours later. High school kid? US citizen. Kavanaugh High. Like DeGrassi, but with chemical munitions thrown by an unhinged CBP commander. (Nbhd president said Bovino, w a smirk, threw the first tear gas canister.)

I've seen lawyers ripped for trying to implement a politician's stupid ideas, disciplined for unethical conduct, mocked for ignorance, cautioned for impulsive behavior, or threatened with prosecution. But I have never seen all of that, all at once until now

CZ pleaded guilty to a criminal money laundering charge and was sentenced to prison. But then he financed President Trump’s stablecoin and lobbied for a pardon. Today, he got it. If Congress does not stop this kind of corruption, it owns it.

Today we're sharing a piece from @bumas.bsky.social we sent out to our paying readers yesterday. It's, as best we can tell, the most definitive list of who is running Trump's digital operation. Meet the far-right hype house flooding our of our feeds with shit. www.garbageday.email/p/here-s-who...

BREAKING: Over a sharp dissent from Justice Sonia Sotomayor, joined by Justices Kagan & Jackson, the Supreme Court will not stop Alabama from killing Anthony Boyd tonight. Sotomayor tells the reader to count to four minutes on their phone. "Now imagine for that entire time, you are suffocating."

The tragedy here is that the WashPost owner could easily subsidize this paper's operation as a public service and remain one of the wealthiest humans in all of history.
