This is absurd. These bumbling, scared ICE guys drawing guns on bystanders, waving them around in traffic, etc. are fucking embarrassing, in addition to being stupid sadists.

It's funny/not funny to watch the rest of the world move forward while Republicans work overtime to ensure that America gets left behind. Cannot wait for the bullshit story they one day tell themselves about how and why we became a second-rate power. bsky.app/profile/lewi...

that was fast

Effing nepo babies and their emoluments-ignoring parents are just following in the footsteps of the Trump Clan. They're giving new meaning to the term "filthy rich."

Sinclair is caving and bringing back Kimmel. Money, folks. Public pressure. They dont have the numbers. Remember this and increase the efforts.

Covering the presser held by Allegheny United for Immigrants Rights and Justice today, I ran into the hardest working man in Pittsburgh photography, Rico Martello. The group presented thousands of signatures to Pgh City Council asking to officially make this a sanctuary city.

Appropriate response to a genocidal pariah.

Patel is basically admitting on camera that the FBI no longer adheres to the Attorney General Guidelines, which prohibits investigating U.S. persons based solely on First Amendment activity (including membership in a group).

Pete Kegbreath is definitely not ready to fight Russia.

Doxxing the opposition is Mob goon behavior, but no surprise.

The Justice Department is now identical to Russia’s Prosecutor General’s Office and our FBI is like Russia’s FSB security services. Now Americans will see how justice is carried out in Russia. I call it the Kremlinization of America’s justice system.

"Mileinomics is now in big trouble. So Bessent is offering large-scale aid — not to defend U.S. interests, but in an attempt to rescue the reputation of Trump’s preferred ideology and cult of fealty."

I don’t think the president should have the power to just arbitrarily declare online that IKEA cannot do business in the United States for no particular reason other than he feels like it

I think it would be helpful if DA Bragg charged a few of these assaults. If the agents think that federal law immunizes them for actions that would result in ordinary New Yorkers being charged, let them litigate it.

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)

Yes. This should be made public! How do we know they weren't being disappeared?

It's OUR money the govt put in that bag to give to Homan, and we deserve to know exactly how it was spent. Also, did he pay taxes on it? Because he is required to declare that income, just like all the rest of us.

Restore SNAP if you are going to bailout farmers.

American media told us every day how unpopular Biden was. Trump is less popular than Biden and they mislead on the subject.

This shit is so cowardly. Bondi and other apparatchiks think they can have it both ways by obeying Trump's orders while leaking to friendly reporters that they "have reservations." But it doesn't work like that. Either shut up, refuse the order, or resign.

It's a circle jerk of the world's dumbest and most disingenuous honkey trash.

"In exile" from reality, maybe...

I'm struggling to contain my anger over the government's handling of the ICE shooting in Dallas - specifically, the refusal to publicly identify three human beings who were killed or seriously wounded These monsters do everything possible to dehumanize refugees. We can't let them get away with it

JD Vance does not have the sauce. I shudder to think of him at the helm if/when Trump inevitably kicks off or gets deemed incompetent. Vance is willing to lie and say anything...he's as transactional as Trump but with none of the charisma. And he's a SV white supremest. Yuck!

L, and might I add, MAO. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Chudbani.

Why does anyone not born yesterday think this guy is some kind of believable genius?

Here’s how a guy who wrote a book on the subject explained treason when we spoke in 2019. The definition is not “made the president mad for vague reasons.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/201...

“.. levels not seen since 1992.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Yep, this is exactly what I'd have expected. Great article from Ken.

I wonder what the skill correlation is between prosecuting federal criminal indictments on highly monitored former public officials and [checks notes] practicing insurance law in the state of FL?

Via @spencerhakimian.bsky.social on X- the Harvard MD who fed into the acetaminophen study touted by Trump, Kennedy, and Oz yesterday was paid $150K by litigants to testify against acetaminophen! www.thetimes.com/us/american-...

If I had to see it, you have to see it. 🤮 Now, please pass me the joint that erases all short term memory...

Can't help but notice that the media breathlessly reporting on the messages that shooters write on their bullets seems to have been followed by a surge of shooters writing messages on bullets

yeah, apparently the shooter engraved "KASH PATEL IS COMPETENT AND HANDSOME" on a bullet. idk! that's what they're saying. really makes you think

GOP: We protect kids! So—ban child labor? GOP: No Ban child marriages? GOP: No Ban children from carrying guns? GOP: No Ban gun sales w/o background checks? GOP: No Then how exactly do protect kids?🤔 GOP: We ban books, discussions on racism, drag, free school lunch, & Tylenol.

One interesting question: Did Homan report the $50k on his *STATE* income taxes? You have to report your income — even if it’s an illegal bribe. And if not: Could be an opportunity for state tax fraud charges in NY….

people are starting to speak up about the Argentina bailout

Making this more absurd, Trump himself has *said in his own words* that he wants Brendan Carr to use state power to censor criticism of him. Yet the @nytimes.com headline makes this sound like some kind of righteous crusade on Carr's part.

Kristi Noem are Corey Lewandowski are doing adulterous ethnic cleansing the right way. by Ezra Klein

They're trying to gin up a Reichstag Fire

Uh, might that be called….SOCIALISM???!!!!

Aside from being out there lying about stuff, he DID just admit that climate change is the problem and "everything [both extreme hot and cold weather] is caused by climate change." I thought this was grounds for firing in Trumpistan's government?

Dude who gets overpaid to post poorly written, utterly vapid "think" pieces is whining about how his speech has been infringed upon by "the Left." STFU, Bedbug.

“.. Americans deserve to know whether Homan, who styles himself an aggressively by-the-book cop unwilling to look past any immigrant’s slightest infraction, is guilty of soliciting bribes.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Lol, that's a lot of words to explain giving $20 billion of American scientists' cancer research grant money to a really bad Elvis impersonator down in Argentina.

Last night under the cover of darkness, the Trump-Epstein statue on temporary display at the National Mall near the Capitol was removed by the US Park Police -- despite having a permit to remain there until September 28. www.wusa9.com/article/news...

I see the NYT is up to its usual shit in the headlines this morning, making sure to selectively call the ACA "Obamacare" so that they might cause low attention readers to associate the blowing up of everyone's rates with Dems and not with Trump.
