The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers. So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️ https://actionnetwork.org/letters/stop-paramount-mega-media-monopoly/?source=group-ShortText

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

If you work at DHS and know the identities of the CBP officers that murdered Alex Pretti, my Signal contact info is in my bio. I’ll keep you anonymous.

MAGA politics is an ongoing triangulation between what crooks and bigots want and what the rest of us will tolerate. That's why you're seeing such a desperate pivot after Trump's thugs executed a man on a Minneapolis street. The MAGA pols don't oppose it – they just know it looks bad.

Filming the police is not obstruction. Filming the police is not resisting. Refusing to stop filming police is not resisting. Holding onto your phone is not resisting. Federal agents under this admin have zero respect for rights and liberties.

A handy reference for the next time someone calls you alarmist for making this now-obvious point: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Yeah, what protester would show up with a gun and ammunition? That's crazy. Only a lunatic lefty would bring a gun to a protest.

Heartened to see that our top policy officials have taken stock of the many perils facing the country and concluded that the real threats are...Minnesota and Denmark.

This is horrifying. World order now hangs on the whims of a demented toddler. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

We’re in a moral fight, and Democrats in Congress need to start acting like the opposition party on every 👏🏽 damn 👏🏽 thing 👏🏽 Opposition isn’t about polite press releases and sad cable hits. It’s about using every procedural tool available to slow, expose, and force accountability. 🧵

"Witnesses said a doctor was at the scene and tried to help the woman who had been shot, but the ICE agents refused to let the doctor in to help. Up to 15 minutes later, an ambulance arrived but was blocked by ICE vehicles that had occupied the street."

The Atlantic doesn't always rise to the moment, but this is a pretty comprehensive indictment of the corrosive effects of Trumpism. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

It occurs to me that no one makes the kind of fundamental, systemic changes that this admin has made unless they're planning to stick around and ensure it isn't all reversed by their successor. This seems at least mildly important.

60 minutes CECOT segment. Recorded through my browser. HD quality. Not phone. Spread it around. If you're press, it's yours. Go nuts. It's streaming on a Canadian website, but there is no telling for how long. www.filemail.com/d/wkcdttnacp...

Anyone who sees Bovino in Rogers Park, let us know. We’re doing ICE watch. Whistles out. Be on alert. Help protect our community.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

I realize the whole "flaunt/flout" distinction can be difficult for some, but et tu, @theatlantic.com? "...who are again demanding to know how some of his friends seem able to flaunt the rules while the rest of the country suffers."

As the top Democrat overseeing the National Endowment for the Humanities, I’ve spent the past few months digging into the Administration’s unprecedented dismantling of the agency. What I found reveals a disturbing pattern of corruption.

Head to a protest today. I can almost promise you will feel less hopeless. That's exactly what they don't want. There are more of us than there are of them.

If you're in DC, ICE has set up a checkpoint on F street and H street.

To everyone who says, "But this won't matter": *MAKE IT MATTER.* You have that power! This is not inside baseball and your friends and neighbors will likely be appalled. And if they're *not* appalled, don't be cynical yourself. Take the lead, give the cue.

New, from me: Trump's 3 step plan to create a military omniforce 1. Purge - those deemed disloyal 2. Merge - different parts of law enforcement/military 3. Surge - impose the omniforce on Dem cities; instigate unrest; assert dominance; silence dissent donmoynihan.substack.com/p/purge-merg...

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

I don’t mean to overreact or anything, but this is the commander-in-chief telling military personnel that Democrats are a problem to be dealt with.

One path to a successful career as a columnist is to be repeatedly wrong. Not to have unique takes on matters of opinion, but confident declarations proven wrong by events. If you can condescend to people proven right no matter how often you are wrong, the most prominent media would like to pay you.

they're gonna turn every remaining facet of government interface into a manosphere podcast, ie, a dumb white guy telling everyone who ostensibly works for him that they're gross pieces of shit who deserve all the bad stuff in their lives because they jack off too much

I fear this philosophy is going to be the defining characteristic of Republican politics going forward. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

What shade of magenta signifies that RFK is on the verge of spontaneously bursting into flames? Because I think we're close.

Gonna keep reposting this @timdickinson.bsky.social / me item: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

If you're a journalist and find yourself uncritically writing the phrase "Trump's crime crackdown," please consider another career.

She was paying $479 a month for her ACA health insurance. Next year she will be paying *$2,800* a month for the same plan. And it's all because Republicans decided to end ACA subsidies. Expect to hear stories like this all across the country very soon. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

In Ohio diner, Bolton still means Michael. But they do know this: if a man doesn’t love a woman enough to vote for Kamala Harris he deserves to be put in jail by Donald Trump

“Dormant cancer cells are like the embers left in an abandoned campfire, and respiratory viruses are like a strong wind that reignites the flames” Very accessible explainer of what some might consider a good reason to keep investing in vaccines for flu and Covid 🤦🏻‍♀️

Every single Democrat needs to internalize this: ICE is a politicized operation that our tax dollars are paying for. If Dem leaders don’t use every single legislative tool in their disposal to rein this in (ie shutting down this govt over funding) they aren’t doing their jobs.

If the DNC can't message around the image of US troops *literally rolling out the red carpet for a war criminal*, what are we even doing?

The racial & gender biases of our elite national media are on full display in how they covered our hard-working Black woman VP, @kamalaharris.com, vs. how they’re covering lazy white man VP JD Vance. It’s not an overstatement to say the racism & misogyny of the Beltway press is on full display.

It’s no secret why the Trump administration went after Direct File, a free, easy-to-use tax filing program: it threatens the tax prep companies’ bottom line. Trump’s tax policy makes life richer for billionaires and harder for just about everyone else.

Have the heavily armed 2A enthusiasts risen up against the tyrannical government yet?

When public media disappears, so do the stories that bring us together. With federal funding eliminated, millions may lose their last trusted source of news and connection. If that matters to you, now’s the time to act. Donate: n.pr/458sOhq

My advice to Democratic Governors and State Legislators in Democratic-controlled states with R-held Congressional districts: GET. CAUGHT. TRYING. It might be difficult - or impossible - to redistrict your state's districts, but we damn sure want to see you try. Those who do will be rewarded.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Absolutely surreal to watch White House reporters ask Leavitt questions about tariffs moments after she and Gabbard used this briefing to baselessly accuse Obama of crimes punishable by death. We’re a sick joke of a country.
