The American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts says it’s releasing an online toolkit for attorneys to uncover the technologies police use—and conceal—to build criminal cases, from facial recognition to AI-written police reports.

"Trump’s OMB quietly proposed a more than 400-page overhaul of the federal grant-making process . . . 'The proposal would put nearly $1tn in grant-making into the hands of political appointees by October."

The Freedom Fuel stations were put together by a pair of serial grifters who stole $667,000 worth of gas from a distributor five years ago, a private credit sponsor, and an energy trader tied up in multiple Trump schemes and profiting heavily off the war in Iran. prospect.org/2026/07/20/k...

Today, 7/20, is the deadline for Acting AG Todd Blanche to respond to my latest filing demanding: *specific documents from the Epstein Files be produced in the judge's chambers AND *for Blanche to pay a $1000 fine/day until he complies with the rest of the preliminary injunction entered in my favor

STREET PROTEST- NO WAR This seems like the most appropriate protest set up for today, as Trump expands the the Iranian War into the entire Middle East, and now Jordan. Netanyahu is chomping at the bit to start bombing again and committing genocide. Love to have 30 million of you join us.

If you think this battle for the soul of mankind ends when Trump is gone, I have sour news for you. The people waiting to replace him are openly Nazi. This fight for decency will go on and on until these corrupt bastards are made to face severe consequences for their blatant acts of evil.

Remember this confession…👇 Trump. Is. Pure. Projection. 😎✨

On Tuesday, a New Jersey town pulled $91M out of Citizens Bank over its business with ICE prison contractors GEO Group and CoreCivic. Yesterday, Citizens announced it was ending its relationships with GEO and CoreCivic. Money managers should DIVEST from #$GEO #$CXW www.nj.com/essex/2026/0...

Great show last night! We talk The Odyssey, Epstein's Paris associates, Blanche, election fuckery, Trump's attempt to erase Black history, and more. Plus: our guest, @nadinesmith.bsky.social, was at my house!

A group of 26 Meta employees sued the company in federal court on Monday, accusing it of using artificial intelligence to target disabled workers and those who took medical leave for layoffs.

Antifascism looks like Pedro Pascal. It looks like Alex Pretti and AOC. It looks like 600 priests, imams, and rabbis in the cold streets of winter Minneapolis. Antifascism is gorgeous.

This month, ICE has been responsible for multiple high-profile killings in states across the country. Our newest report demonstrates that these tragic events are part of greater pattern of misconduct and violence, spurred on by the Trump administration's mass deportation drive.

The bigger question isn’t who’s paying. It’s why Trump keeps getting away with treating the White House like it’s his personal property. He doesn’t own it. The American people do.

I love Montclair! Bravo!!! N.J. town pulls $91M from Citizens Bank over ICE detention financing www.nj.com/essex/2026/0...

Virtually every country in the world *except* for the US is responding to the Iran War in a rational way -- ie, trying to reduce their reliance in imported fossil fuels.

Did you know that before this World Cup, the resale value of tickets was capped at the face value of the ticket. FIFA did away with it this year, and set up THE resale site where they take 30% of the price of the ticket sale for themselves. 15% from the buyer and 15% from seller. #FIFAisCorrupt

Every single day, Trumpy proves he's an absolute idiot.

He Should Be Fired Immediately and Investigated…..

Seriously, unfortunately so true.

10000000% Media: when he re-treads these lies, ask about the Epstein files.

So in today/tonight's FIFA World Cup final. FIFA are breaking they're own rules by holding a half hour long half time show just to apease the Americans. The United States should be barred from holding any more World Cup finals.

Why can’t Gov Andy Beshear just appoint a new Senator to replace Mitch McConnell unless they provide proof of life? Just appoint someone and have the GOP fight it after like they do to Dems.

While we're disgusted, for ICE this is probably like getting a 6th round draft pick that ends up being Tom Brady.

In the 1960's, when the USA led the world w/ blue-chip companies in every field, the average CEO-to-worker pay ratio for major corps was 20-to-1. Now, CEO's are paid about 300 times as much as the typical worker. Those CEO's don't work any harder nor are they more deserving.

And yet, here we are…👇 What the fuck is wrong with America?! MAGA. Did. All. This. 😎✨

Habeas corpus. Mitch isn’t alive until he’s walking and talking on live television and even then I want DNA proof that’s him.

Ben Wikler’s new book This Is The Plan asserts “the superpower of organizing…” And people in Madison, Wisconsin, are ready!

And never forget he pardoned them all. Every last one of them. #Insurrectionists #Traitors

Imagine if a woman president spent most her time raving and crying about an election she lost 6 years ago. Emotional. Unstable. Hysterical. Unfit to lead.

Bernie's Correct, Again......

NEW: Aurora Police say an ICE detention center employee shot a protester last night. She is expected to survive. 42-year-old Brandon Booth, who works for the ICE contractor GEO Group, is being held on suspicion of attempted second degree murder and other charges.

Every news channel should have this running in real time 💯💯💯💯🎯

Hey friends, Don't forget Fox News paid nearly a billion dollars for the lies they aired again tonight.

AOC: This is an inhaler pump. Can you guess what the great innovation was that made it worth preventing this from going generic? It’s this little plastic piece right here. That was a major part of the new patent they filed to extend exclusivity and prevent this life-saving drug from going generic.

Exactly!!!

This is a problem we can solve

Come get yo clock and yo parade,!! people.com/see-everythi...

People don't want masked thugs terrorizing their neighbors. They don't want warehouses being turned into detention centers. They don't want billions of taxpayer dollars spent on a rogue police state. They want healthcare. They want affordable homes. They want their basic needs met.

Completely—and utterly irresponsibly—unhinged.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

“Antitrust laws were designed to stop mergers that may substantially lessen competition before they happen.” That’s why WGAE and WGAW are suing Paramount and Warner Brothers. LFG

No videos will load on Bluesky for me today. Anyone else?

New York to impose the country’s first statewide moratorium on data centers.

Guy on the radio earlier saying we should all save our shower water and use that to flush the toilet. Around 60 companies are responsible for 80% of all global carbon emissions; telling us as individuals to do something without addressing that is just gaslighting and guilt tripping.

Infectious diseases like cyclospora and measles are spreading because the people in charge don't care about public health. That's why we need more scientists and/or healthcare professionals in the room. That's why I'm running.
