We obtained a trove of internal ICE records showing detention center guards have increasingly used physical force and chemical agents on detainees. Gift link: wapo.st/4tdgBRA story w/ @abtran.bsky.social & team

“The clergy demanded an end to business as usual, protesting ICE’s brutality and cruelty in that building, along with their policies of family separation, holding people in cramped and inhumane conditions, and denying them due process.” truah.org/press/10-rab...

Coming after just Comey for something others use “constantly” sure sounds like selective prosecution…

Wow

Fox is regime propaganda poison

The kickinthedick of it Sean is that this was self inflicted.

I love video games except for 95% of the people I meet while playing them

The Apple Lisa is back! The open source LisaFPGA Project recreates the legendary 1983 machine with modern essentials like HDMI and USB.

Trump now claims it’s unconstitutional for Congress to authorize war — which is an odd position for someone who literally swore an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution,” while Article I gives Congress the power to declare war.

It's The Muppet Show with our very special guest star Biggs Darklighter!

I'm going on Master Chef, looking Gordon Ramsay dead in the eye while I pop this in the microwave, then staring at him unblinking for two minutes until it's ready.

This is unconscionable. I’ll put my phone in airplane mode to beat this Saw it at No Frills- price on a digital display changed before my eyes. Thought I was hallucinating. Apparently not! I’ll be avoiding stores w digital pricing. Looking at you #Loblaws theconversation.com/your-browsin...

The Supreme Court’s decision to gut the Voting Rights Act is an attack on our constitutional republic. Illinois will fight back, uphold our values, and safeguard democracy.

BREAKING: We filed another emergency lawsuit — this time in federal court — against Louisiana officials for suspending the state's primary election after voting has already begun. Louisiana is disenfranchising voters who have already cast ballots, all in the service of stifling Black voting power.

Prick still breathing and dumbing Posting this every damn day!!!!!!

Lord I’ve seen what you’ve done for others and I want that for me

Refutations to Anti-Vaccine Memes Originally this cartoon was about Covid vaccination, but it's just as relevant to measles, pertussis, and all the other vaccine-preventable diseases.

Picked this up at the library today. 2 chapters in and I LOVE it.

#StayReadyCrew I’m gently reminding you to check your supplies and see what you need. Nothing is going to get cheaper for the foreseeable future. There’s no need to hoard or panic but NOW is a good time to start planning for the rest of the year. www.businessinsider.com/inflation-ec...

Jeff Bezos and his wife are the lead sponsors of tonight's Met Gala. Now seems like a good time to remind folks of all the ways Bezos is shafting American consumers and Amazon workers — and how his wealth is putting our democracy at risk. https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/amazon-ceo-jeff-bezos

on set. what about YOU?

Bryon Noem's dominatrix on why she decided to speak out: They push conservative family values but they don't uphold those values themselves. These people are hypocrites. They are telling you to be one way, and being horrific to immigrants and passing laws against being trans.

#BREAKING: Justice Alito, acting as Circuit Justice, has just issued administrative stays of the Fifth Circuit's Friday ruling in the mifepristone case (so he's temporarily restored full access to mife). The stay will expire, absent further a order from Alito or #SCOTUS, at 5 p.m. ET on May 11.

"It is time to consider taking back some of the jurisdiction Congress has ceded to the Supreme Court." Good @normornstein.bsky.social read on SCOTUS abuses and the need for a real response to them: www.contrariannews.org/p/scotuss-br...

The VRA fundamentally changed Black Americans’ access to the voting booth, allowing Black voters a chance to vote for someone of their choice. Last week, SCOTUS gutted this provision. @nytimes.com shares how the VRA changed Black representation in the House in Southern states:

I would once again like to reiterate my support for placing all SCOTUS justices in the precog isolation pods from Minority Report when they're not hearing cases.

Mifepristone was safe and effective when FDA first approved it over 25 years ago—and it remains safe and effective today. As I continue to monitor actions by #SCOTUS, know that I will never stop fighting for your access to reproductive healthcare.

Katherine Tate’s “Black Faces in the Mirror” offered one of the first sustained empirical examinations of Black representation, analyzing both how Black legislators represent & how Black constituents evaluate that representation. In light of SCOTUS and VRA, RSVP: fsi.stanford.edu/events/black...

1) Term limits are necessary but not sufficient to address the Roberts Court’s continuing antidemocratic threat. 2) So long as this SCOTUS remains as currently constituted, it would declare unconstitutional any term limits statute, no matter how artfully drafted such a bill may be.

Breaking! SCOTUS News

they just introduced legislation to term limit SCOTUS justices

Limiting access to healthcare that has been in use for decades & has been proven safe & effective is an attack on women.   SCOTUS must continue to uphold access to mifepristone & Congress must act to codify Roe & stop these attacks once & for all.

Need some help processing that SCOTUS gutted Voter Protections? Process & move forward together in this week’s Guardrails of Democracy newsletter

⚡️ UAE reports intercepting missiles, drones from Iran for first time since ceasefire. A fire broke out at an oil facility in the Fujairah emirate after it was hit by a drone launched from Iran, local authorities said.

Alito is assigned all appeals from the Fifth Circuit, his name would be on this mifepristone order regardless. But you can bet this political hack knows it's bad vibes to restrict abortion before the midterms. If they sched the case for next term, the fix is in www.supremecourt.gov/about/circui...
