I’m kinda surprised my iPad “screen time “ measurement thingy hasn’t just asked “Do you ever put this thing down?” I stream most of my shows on it so it’s not surprising that I average a lot of hours a day.

Once again, the main day of Tea Party protests had about 300,000 nationwide, but saw endless coverage. The No Kings protests had about 7,000,000 nationwide, and many media outlets reacted with a yawn. No Kings was nearly 25x as big as the Tea Party but the Tea Party got 25x the attention.

NEW: The Kavanaugh stop, 50 days later. "What a sick world." I asked Justice Brett Kavanaugh about his September 8 concurrence and the reality that has followed. Because he should be asked. He, unsurprisingly, did not respond. Today, at Law Dork:

The seeds are being planted to rig the midterms. It’s becoming more explicit. (Also note the gratuitous shot at the NBA, aka Black athletes who oppose him)

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

might be one of the funniest videos i’ve ever seen

I just donated to my local food bank. If you can, you should too. People are already suffering but next month, in particular, is going to be so difficult.

He's just like the Green Acres guy, come on

Had a Nazi tattoo for 10+ years. Bragged to friends about having a Nazi tattoo for years. Condemned female colleagues for their own rapes. Posted it was fine for people to get SS tattoos. Didn't cover up his tattoo until he got caught, and then chose a questionable one. WTF are you talking about?

But I was informed by the WH and some members of the media that Karoline’s Leavitt’s statement was taken out of context and this isn’t his main priority.

Washpost Opinion (not News) has done a stealth edit of its pro-ballroom editorial. The original (left) failed to mention that Amazon (whose founder, Jeff Bezos, owns the Post) is a donor to Trump's project. The new version (right) has it. No clarification or correction appended to the piece.

Yeah, this is what I wrestle with -- a college freshman today was only nine when Trump first ran for president. They've grown up with him as a baseline, not an aberration.

White guy with Nazi tattoo: "he seems like an aware guy who is learning and growing from his mistakes." Muslim child of immigrants with a massive lead in mayoral race of the nation's largest city with no Nazi tattoos: "he called the NYPD racist!" (which is the truth, but what do I know)

At first I just didn't agree with his politics or think he could beat Collins given ME's preference of centrists like King & Golden, but between the⚡⚡☠️tattoo, the Reddit posts & comments about rape in the military, it's no wonder Dems are dropping out & endorsing Mills. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

The judge advocate general corps lawyers responsible for advising the armed forces aren't unsure at all whether Trump's murders at sea are illegal: they know they are and have been saying so.

Again I ask - Sunday shows why?

Rand Paul on Trump's strikes on boats: "I would call them extrajudicial killings. This is akin to what China does, what Iran does with drug dealers -- they summarily execute people without presenting evidence to the public. So it's wrong."

Rule of Law Alert: Trump’s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesn’t mention tariffs—but does require a national emergency. An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)

For an administration that came out of the box threatening Canadian independence, Greenland’s sovereignty, the Panama Canal, etc., it sure has a glass jaw. 🤡

And here I was, thinking it was just known as “breaking the law.” You’re telling me there’s a *strategy* here? Golly, I’m such a rube.

uh, that’s not “reimagining” the novel. that’s…the novel.

ICE said they were after “illegal immigrants.” Then they targeted anyone brown, anyone Black, the homeless, even journalists. And they’re just getting started. If you’re wondering how 1933 Germany felt—look around. You’re living it.

Lia Thomas, the first openly trans athlete to win an NCAA D1 national championship is 100% right: There is nothing better than living and being your authentic self. To trans youth: We will never stop fighting for your right to be you! We love you. ♥️ https://cnn.it/43yX8Ra

Quantifying the exact number of pregnant, postpartum, or nursing immigrants in ICE custody has become impossible. @19thnews

Holy crap. Platner joked about how he isn't a Secret Nazi. This asshole is arguing that he SHOULD have *remained* a Secret Nazi and that this would be a *good* thing.

From his perch as a long-time global currency trader on Wall Street, Bessent also invested $25 million in Midwest land, which he leases out to actual farmers. He is not a “soybean farmer.” bsky.app/profile/atru...

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

John Roberts be like NOT ENOUGH

The fact that some prominent Democrats defend a Maine Senate primary candidate’s Nazi tattoo while he isn’t even leading in polls, but not defend a NYC mayor primary winner from false smears even as he’s leading general election polls says a lot. That doesn’t seem driven by voter preference.

It’s fun to look at this ai slop nazi propaganda and then remember what these guys actually look like. This isn’t what they (or america) looks like and far from loving america, this is an expression of severe self loathing bsky.app/profile/geof...

We're watching resegregation happen in real time. This is modern post-reconstruction policy that will further entrench white supremacy.

When Jacobin and the Pod Save bros are aligned on defending nazi tattoos, we’ve got a problem and it’s not going to be solved by you coming into my mentions and telling me I’m not seeing what I’m definitely seeing— which is white people left, right, and center coming together to defend Nazi tattoos

Anonymous has hacked all Kremlin servers. Anonymous is applying its own digital sanctions on Russia. We demand they surrender and fully leave all Ukrainian territory. #OpRussia

Moscow’s nice little air defense network, it would be a shame if anything happened to it. Ukraine can now reach every corner of the Russian capital. Putin is shitting bricks in his bunker.

Brace for another wave of x refuges

I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this. But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

Shared at CPAC this year

ICE Facility unlawfully denies routine visit from Member of Congress Congressman Horsford about the incident: "What are they hiding? You don't get to slam the door on a Member of Congress during a routine ICE visit.

NC GOP gerrymandering cost me my seat in Congress and robbed Democrats of a majority in the House. I spoke with @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com about it after the last election. Mark my words: Unless blue states start acting with a real sense of urgency, it’ll happen again.

I mean, a lot of people are also desinterested, but the people who are most ideologically aligned with you and would like to join are usually the ones most overworked and tired, because that’s how oppression usually manifests

In fairness, the Supreme Court’s Republican appointees regularly “hallucinate” bogus facts without using AI. The praying coach ruling shows that Gorsuch doesn’t need a sloppy robot to make shit up that’s directly refuted by the record!

NYPD Cop is sick and tired of TEMU cops AKA ICE GOONS racial profiling and harassing him.

During Helene, the water level here at Ashworth Creek was over my head. Now, over a year later, time has passed but the scars and debris remain — and work needs to be done. But Republicans in Washington are more focused on building ballrooms than building bridges here in WNC. #NC11 #WNC #Helene

A U.S. citizen and student was violently detained by ICE near the school in Chicago They want community members too afraid to resist out of fear that they might be next. As ICE occupations worsen, communities have proven to be a lynchpin to resisting ICE. We must build up community solidarity.

Let’s DO THIS!
