The upside of taxing the rich: 99% of us benefit Downside: there is none

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw. The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Oh…

This is what rock-bottom polling does to a man with a fragile ego.

The United Nations General Assembly just voted to condemn torture. The United States was one of only three countries that voted against it. (The other two were the U.S.-backed far-right governments of Argentina and Israel.)

Former Trump White House attorney Ty Cobb: “The Constitution is not adequate to deal with a President as evil as Trump—somebody whose desire is to accumulate and abuse power. Trump’s abuses of power are unprecedented.”

So much for Musk’s genius

Israeli attacks target Palestinians in their cars, shelters and homes in latest violation of the US-brokered truce.

Israel has violated the US-brokered Gaza ceasefire at least 497 times in 44 days, killing at least 342 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Government Media Office. 🔗: aje.io/65ptdp| #Infograph

AOC has said this about Marjorie Taylor Greene retiring: "She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office. "

Stephen Sestanovich: The best sentence is the very last one: ‘European officials and former officials have described the 28-point plan as “scandalous” and said Witkoff needs “a psychiatrist” if he thinks it will fly.’ www.politico.eu/article/ukra...

BREAKING: Elon Musk has immediately disabled the "Account based in" feature on Twitter after more than 50% of the MAGA grifter accounts were found to be based outside of the US. Most of the pro-Israel and MAGA propaganda accounts were being run from India.

How embarrassing. Administration sources were all-in on this Russian wishlist until it was revealed that it was an *actual* Russian wishlist and not just the worst possible peace plan for Ukraine.

Mamdani has a magnetic presence, and it's not surprising that the world's foremost authority on magnets would be attracted to him.

“Health officials in Gaza reported at least 24 people killed and another 54 wounded, including children.”

Israeli soldiers stop a young Palestinian in the West Bank and force him to say "I love Israel" (after assaulting him). Then, they post it to Facebook. As long as the occupation continues, there will neither be peace nor stability. Any US plan that sidesteps this will fail.

Israel’s forced removal of tens of thousands of Palestinians from refugee camps in the occupied West Bank earlier this year amounts to war crimes and crimes against humanity, Human Rights Watch has alleged.

Absolutely pathetic.

Trump frickin' loves this guy lmao

Kimmel monolog killed it tonight..right at the camera "i know you are watching..quiet piggy"

Nothing beats this from Australia’s Morning Bulletin 🤣

I think this clip is the key to understanding why Trump acted the way he did with Mamdani. His world revolves around TV ratings. "I tell you, the press has eaten this thing up."

Immigration agents had a 12-pack of Modelos in their car while making arrests, Miguel Angel Garcia Martinez told investigators.

Okay, this is just pathetic.

Remember that we can always find power, solidarity, and hope in the labor movement. Don't cross the picket line! #NoContractNoCoffee

DOJ is now recruiting for immigration judges by calling them “deportation judges.” That’s seems really bad.

He’s gonna be telling this story to the camp guards one day and it’ll kill.

Good times! www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Someone found an mp3 of the creepy "Jailbait" song Olivia Nuzzi released when she was 16 🫣

A timely reminder

reminder that Donald Trump said on the record that he partied with his buddy Jeffrey Epstein and women “on the younger side” and yet we’re pretending like the natural of their relationship is some big mystery

Instead of considering whether the super-rich really need a tax cut, the Trump regime is considering whether poor people really need to eat.

Israel continues to block aid and materials into Gaza for shelters, thus purposefully denying conditions necessary for life as winter comes on. They are continuing the genocide in full view of the world.

It’s like a decade a self-imposed economic sanctions.

Terrible! www.mediaite.com/politics/ex-...
