I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue now has 14.3 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube. It would be a shame for you to share it www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

A statement from Tylenol

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

ICE going full Theon Greyjoy

A lot smarter than the centrists vs leftists chatter: data4democracy.substack.com/p/the-democr...

Viktor Orban had his most loyal oligarchs buy up all of Hungary's major media outlets to establish a propaganda network. It's happening here now. www.ap.org/news-highlig... www.thedailybeast.com/trumpy-billi... archive.ph/2025.09.17-2...

What's happening with Jimmy Kimmel is about politics and power.

Government officials do not get to decide that your rights have become inconvenient or problematic. They are your rights. They are not privileges provided by the government and revocable at will.

About 1 in 4 U.S. adults worry they or someone close to them could be deported, according to a June @pewresearch.org survey.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Yes. Don't waste six hours every day trying to turn back the clock.

I gasped. These two are too beautiful. They should not be allowed to stand this close to each other.

"Regret" for what? Every bit of this was Trump admin policy, including the arbitrary rounding up of everyone in sight, the appalling conditions of their confinement, and the delayed release. Is anyone in the Trump admin / DHS / ICE getting fired over it? No. Are any policies being changed? Also no.

This thread and series of thoughts from @gregggonsalves.bsky.social is excellent and worth your time.

"Harvard can't use race as a factor in admissions, but ICE can use race as a factor in detentions" is a retrenchment essentially to a pre-Civil War understanding of the Constitution. It's vanishingly few steps removed from "Latinos have no rights which the white man is bound to respect."

I'm working on a story for NPR on how high housing costs are causing some people to have fewer kids, or no kids, than they planned. Is this you and you're open to being in the story? Drop a line with a bit about your situation, where you live, + your phone number to [email protected]. Thanks!

There’s been lots of discussion of the article, but I think the paper-copy visual is effective. Individual photos of each Dem Senator, each one captioned, “Senator [Name], what will you do?”

Just wondering how many folks in the Pentagon are cool with the fact that the enemy is no longer Russia or China but non-Trumpy Americans.

Know your rights, Illinois. Stay safe and stay informed.

Several anti-ICE protestors on the Ohio-Kentucky border. This is how the police dealt with them. Literally beat the hell out of them. This is Trump's police state America, coming to a protest near you.

Great news, fellow NYers!

We took the paywall down on this one. defector.com/how-the-fuck...

florida reserving the right to bear infectious diseases

This is a public health emergency for the whole country.

COMING TO A CITY, SUBURB, TOWN NEAR YOU OCTOBER 18: NO KINGS 2. Spread. The. Word.

I mean this country has killed enough Kennedys, I guess it’s only fair one of them tries to return the favor

That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.

Good.

I encourage all living in these 16 states to contact their reps about this… C.D.C. Uncertainty Upends Covid Vaccine Access at CVS and Walgreens www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/w...

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

I am begging my fellow Dems to emerge from the reflexive “it’s a trap” position on these issues and realize that some things are very simple: the public doesn’t like the federal government turning the military against its own citizens.The public doesn’t like the armed occupation of a city.Period.

We could stop all this but Republican politicians and judges don’t want to

Adam Raine, 16, died from suicide in April after months on ChatGPT discussing plans to end his life. His parents have filed the first known case against OpenAI for wrongful death. Overwhelming at times to work on this story, but here it is. My latest on AI chatbots: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/t...

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

My hubby and I had great fun playing along from upstate! @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social showcased how a fun active campaign can highlight the greatest city on earth. A love letter to NYC 😍 #ZcavengerHunt

Trump doesn't seem to see that some people are still immune to his threats. Jack White criticized Trump's Oval Office decor. The White House then called White a "washed-up, has-been loser... masquerading as a real artist." And White, undeterred, posted an absolutely blistering takedown in response.

Game on.

Correct. It’s insane that anyone is standing for this. We need people in the streets, campus protests, a general strike. Democrats should be holding rallies and press events constantly. The apathy in the face of all this is astounding.

In Middleton, NY. This guy probably saved his neighbors from Trump's masked thugs. This is how you firmly assert your rights and stand up for our communities.

holy shit this is a helluva ad from the Democrat running against Joni Ernst in Iowa. worth every second

Who's the next Democrat that's gonna come out swinging? Who's gonna go on the attack? Who's gonna figure out a way to get it done regardless of the obstacles in place? If you can't see that there's an insatiable appetite for fighters and brawlers on the left, open your eyes.

A number of protests against President Donald Trump are set to take place across the country on Labor Day.

I’ve been waiting for this deliciousness for a long time. Proud of these NYers 😍
