Quick reminder: It’s a holiday weekend and ICE is still out of control.

An NBC News investigation finds dozens of examples of criminals imitating ICE to rob and attack people www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

"Needing AI to write your CV calls into question whether you have the competency to do the job." Is a completely valid criticism. Notice how it only gets applied to the woman.

you know what sounds good right now is a frappe [smiles nostalgically in boomer]

Reminder that formerly enslaved Black people started Memorial Day. It was initially called Decoration Day as they decorated the graves of Union troops. “As He died to make men holy let us die to make men free”

How do you do, Pt Willie McBride Do you mind if I sit down her by your graveside I see by your gravestone you were only 19 When you joined the great fallen of 1916 And I can't help but wonder, young Willie McBride Did all those who lie here Know why they died? www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRmJ...

Repost with the Russian agent that spies on your posts

Most Americans have the attention span of fleas, but worth a read. You're getting played. Big time. Modern PsyOps (mind games) manipulate/trigger you into ignoring false premises so you'll support irrational, harmful objectives without thinking or questioning. share.google/YvumGi5CSwYQ...

Dems did "do something". Speaker Preacher Johnson killed it. But people think yelling impeachment makes them "fighters". "House Speaker Mike Johnson pulled a war powers resolution from the floor after Democrats secured enough Republican support to pass it,..." www.rawstory.com/mike-johnson...

oh no my faves are fighting

the entire campaign to delegitimize @bsky.app is so transparently driven by garchs, billionaires & corporate media all of whom’ve invested billions in algo-driven soc med (FB, xitter, etc) & so want to protect their investments from challenges there is absolutely no good reason to be on xitter rn

fucks sake maine are you gonna make me turn on the heat memorial day weekend wtf

I keep seeing this post on other social media: "Maine doesn't need imported produce! Support Maine farmers!" I mean, sure! Support Maine farmers. But a) lots of things will not grow in Maine; good luck growing oranges, for example; and b) what shall we do from November-May? Just eat meat?

Andrew Egger for The Bulwark: Dems held the line on DHS funding Leading to the ICE/CBP reconciliation bill And setting up the current scenario in which the Senate GOP are pushing back against Trump Interesting and well written:

"[T]he current level of GOP dysfunction is only possible thanks to this year’s strategic successes by Senate Dems, who trusted that the winds of public opinion were at their back, pushed for and got serious concessions in earlier games of legislative chicken" www.thebulwark.com/p/is-that-a-...

I see the incorrect use of the word "neoliberal" is back in vogue.

LOUISIANA: ICE officer pleads guilty to sexually abusing Nicaraguan detainee for Months “while she was under his authority”

Huge loss for Justice Dept, as judge tosses case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia Case is deemed to be "vindictive prosecution" Rep. Glenn Ivey (D-MD), a former federal prosecutor, explains how remarkable that is:

BREAKING: Judge dismisses criminal case against Abrego Garcia as vindictive prosecution storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Any post-mortem or autopsy that doesn’t highlight how the far-right invested $1.2B dollars on youth persuasion is missing the mark. They saturated online spaces and convinced young voters Trump would make things cheaper — and swung the 18-29 demo 20-points right.

He’s daring me to move

As you probably guessed!

Never forget: This guys vote counts exactly the same as yours and every time you sit out an election, you are ceding the board to him and people like him.

Just came back from my weekly volunteer shift at our local food bank The shelves were almost bare Director says demand has become "overwhelming" I know that it's hard, but if you can just pick up an extra box of mac n cheese at the grocery & donate it to your FB it would help so much.. It adds up!

the ticks are terrible this year

Almost like every version of "Harris lost because she didn't do/say exactly what I personally wanted" was total bullshit!

Clay, taxation, and the advent of writing or Where would we be without ceramicists? 🙂 www.patreon.com/posts/clay-t...

"He's someone I've known for a long time" is a very weird thing to say about one's own son.

FLAG: Federal judges in Maine and Wisconsin just dismissed lawsuits filed by the Trump Justice Department seeking to compel the states to hand over detailed voter registration information.

a world-historic midterm walloping - with republicans losing in places they never dreamed were at risk - is a necessity at this point we need Rs to realize that if you're going to lose your job because of trump one way or the other, you might as well lose it for telling him to go to hell

Recall: Dems hung tough on no funding for ICE & BP, Rs caved and passed rest of DHS and decided to do ICE and BP via reconciliation. Trump wanted ballroom then slush fund, couldn’t work it out, & here we are. Lesson for Dems: Hanging tough put pressure on Rs, -> Rs in disarray.

Senate Rs are bailing out of Washington till June hoping the fury will die down. No. Them going home just means Trump's BunkerBallroom, Thug Fund, and Iran continue on autopilot. Can't let up on these things.

It is EXCEEDINGLY important that if you have a R MoC, you find SOME WAY to ratchet up the pressure on both the Bunker-Ballroom and the Terrorist Slush Fund. I suggested earlier you pick an awful Jan6er and make him the poster child of the Slush Fund. Put up wanted posters or something.

Just an interesting fact, no special reason

Why not just write a bill dissolving the slush fund?

NEW: You've asked for the text of my $8.647 million dollar claim to Todd Blanche pursuant to the $1.7B slush fund so you can write your own. Here it is: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-ive-fi...

It's supposed to come out of an existing fund. This Lawfare piece explains that and everything else. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

🚨 Sterling is now kill commanded- 🆘 Good with dogs- needs a no cat home! Good boy- loves people- cuddle bug! Www.poundhoundsresq.org wants 2PULL him- EAST COAST FOSTER NEEDED! #resisters please repost and get him out of this MAGA run shelter!

Wait but where is the slush fund $$ coming from, if he's not getting it from congress?

You know who actually has been the victim of political weaponization and should apply for the money? All of the FBI agents and DOJ attorneys who were fired because they participated in the investigation and prosecution of Trump.

I'm a former federal prosecutor who handled criminal prosecutions for DOJ. This comment by @jkbjournalist.bsky.social is exactly correct.

I think the progressives who don't like Kamala Harris have not reckoned with the possibility that their view of Harris was almost certainly seen through the lens of rightwing media.

Rep. Jamie Raskin is introducing legislation to block the Trump slush fund. The bill would bar the use of any federal funds to back the settlement and would also create new restrictions on payouts generally — including barring anyone convicted of rioting at the Capitol from receiving funds.

There should be rules about this

Holy SHIT Even as an outlier this is surprising Maybe his floor is lower than previously thought

Thanks, DOGE. Heckuva job. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...

Myth: white supremacist leader is great industrialist Fact: while Musk has been busy funding & leading white supremacist movement, BYD has built cheaper / more efficient / nicer vehicles than Musk, and would drive him out of business if US was not using tariffs to protect Musk

Trump and Musk’s profoundly evil decision to cut off U.S. aid is now making an Ebola outbreak in the DRC much worse. The world will live to regret the cruelty and stupidity of Trump, Musk, their flunkies, and the scumbags and fools in the U.S. who voted them in.
