JD Vance wants to use the 25th Amendment to become president. Stephen Miller wants to exploit Trump’s dementia to run the country himself. Call it the new checks and balances.

wrote this line yesterday: "If President Trump were, in other words, trying to instigate some kind of national divorce, it is hard to imagine what he would be doing differently than this."

Multiple videos from this weekend show ICE tear-gassing Chicago police officers. Things feel like they’re spiraling fast across the city.

Immergut explains that her reasoning and analysis from her first TRO issued yesterday still apply here. There have been no changes in Portland's conditions that justify Trump sending in NG from any state, including from within (as in from Oregon itself).

MSNBC is just atrociously bad reporting, it’s like half-informed podcast hosts. Lutnick didn’t just ‘happen’ to be Epstein’s neighbor, he bought his townhouse in a deal brokered by Jeffrey’s own brother, and has deep ties w/Trump fundraising re:Epstein’s former clients. Bill Barr all up in mix too.

SOUTH CAROLINA… “Judge Goodstein was walking on the beach when the fire started. Her husband, Arnie, was in the house with children and perhaps grandchildren. The family had to escape by jumping from a window or balcony...” www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Same judge. While Miller rails about judges.

Just posting this. Everyone knows why.

"What kind of monsters grab children and take them outside without clothes? What kind of govt permits its agents to do this?..The answer can only be a fascist regime that has abandoned any moral code as it seeks to intimidate, stoke fear and do violence." www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-t...

“Large, beefy” agents: are they planning an arrest or organizing an adult-film casting call?

Snapped this pic of DHS conferring with the IL state police just before ICE attacked the crowd, while state and county police assisted them. ICE said, "This is your first and only warning" and then instantly attacked. We were not in the road at that time. They just wanted to assault us and film it.

are these stories about reading trump administration officials phones in public just a consequence of iphones having amazing cameras now or are these guys just particularly incompetent with opsec

Revlimid has its origin in a pill that cost patients $7.50 each. Decades later, the cancer drug costs more than $18,000 for a month’s supply — even though it still only costs about 25 cents to manufacture. Read @davidarmstrongx.bsky.social's award-winning investigation:

this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

In order for the United States to become a party to the International Criminal Court and have our officials be subject to trial at The Hague, the US Senate would need to ratify the Rome statute by a two-thirds vote. Let’s start running on that.

starting to think there might just be some thing rather damning in these epstein files it is just a feeling i am starting to get based on current events and these strenuous efforts to hide them by some individuals

Breaking on MSNBC: An FBI agent in the Washington field office has been fired for refusing to arrest and perp walk James Comey. This news was first reported by Reuters.

My latest from El Paso federal court today: Texas Gerrymander ‘Aggressively Seeks to Roll Back Minority Power,’ Expert Testifies www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

what is most maddening about this is that New Jersey's legislative response to a police chief's nephew becoming a radicalized groyper and murdering two classmates in cold blood is going to be ebike restrictions because the victims were on ebikes. I wish I was fucking joking.

yeah this little Nazi shit needs to get life without parole

A federal appeals court in Boston ruled on Friday that the Trump administration cannot withhold citizenship from children born to people in the country illegally or temporarily, adding to the mounting legal setbacks for Trump’s birthright order.

BREAKING: A federal judge says there is a realistic likelihood that the prosecution of Kilmar Abrego Garcia was driven by vindictive motives — reflected in the public statements of Bondi, Blanche, Noem et al. He has ordered discovery on the question. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump’s #MassDeportation agenda just killed good-paying jobs for Tennessee. This is a company Gov. Bill Lee recruited! Are we great now, GUV? tennesseelookout.com/2025/10/02/e...

😂😂😂😂

Accurate.

LOSS: A Wisconsin court rules that the state election commission must verify the citizenship of voter registration applicants. The parties must now create a plan to identify ineligible registrants and complete a review of the rolls before the next statewide election.

NEW: By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to cancel Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelan migrants. KBJ, dissenting, says she "cannot abide our repeated, gratuitous, and harmful interference" while "lives hang in the balance." www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

EPSTEIN FILES: @aoc.bsky.social explains why Republicans won’t bring the U.S. House back into session 👇

"We, the GOP, don’t want a shutdown, but what’s the alternative? Negotiate? We don’t negotiate with terrorists. Did you see Hakeem Jeffries in that sombrero hat? Terrorist!"

my mom just died this morning and my feed is wall to wall videos of ICE beating the shit out of good, kind people alarmed about the rise of fascism. please send me cat photos so when I come back on here I have something good to look at

Kristi Noem is mad they wouldn’t let her in to use the restroom in Illinois today.

Jack Posobiec, of “Pizzagate” fame, has been voting in Pennsylvania for nearly a decade while living in Maryland. trib.al/myCdQpd

what the fuck. i still can't get over we have fucking nazis rolling around chicago kidnapping people and handcuffing kids, beating protestors, breaking into buildings and throwing gas grenades like every fucking day now. i love this city and they are fucking terrorizing it

Even John Yoo, author of the "torture memos," understands that it's wrong to give a president to blow up ships just on his say so. Shame congress can't understand that. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years. From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

Hard to tell the real illegal militia from the fake illegal militia

“The statue, spray-painted bronze, appeared fully restored today, with only minor damage still apparent and Trump and Epstein’s hands once again clasped together…” www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Laughing at trans people when they express concern *for their own safety*, smugly pretending it's an academic moderation issue, and mischaracterizing pleas for help as bullying—it's all such shitty behavior.

with respect I think it might be a good moment for the devs of this site to take a little offline time

A right wing influencer was arrested after starting fights in Portland and blaming “antifa”. www.cnn.com/2025/10/03/u...

Remember when Hillary Clinton called some Trump supporters “deplorable“?

Weber State University in Utah was set to host a conference this week on "Navigating the Complexities of Censorship.” Then, the conference got ... censored. 1/2 www.sltrib.com/amplify-utah...

JUST IN: Former Trump spiritual adviser and Texas megachurch pastor Robert Morris pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a 12-year-old girl. He will serve only 6 months in jail and pay $250,000 in restitution.

Senator Murphy also lays out a clear set of codified demands that Dems can stand for. Among them: *no more using budget to punish enemies *no more using FCC to censor critics *restrictions on ICE lawlessness in interior *clear ban on troops in cities 3/ newrepublic.com/article/2013...

Legacy media will never use the word "lie," but they're happy to use the word "believes." It's crazy. "Claims to believe" should be the standard. bsky.app/profile/airb...
