This is fucking horrifying.

Justice can’t survive if there is trial by social media, with the President acting as judge and jury.

The biggest threat to American democracy since the Great Escalator Shutdown of a couple days ago.

“Stay calm and enjoy a beautiful fall day” Governor of Oregon @tinakotek.bsky.social re: Trump deploying troops to Portland with ‘full force’ authorization (fascism) against Americans 👇🏽

“Politicians that are in charge right now actually want to be more disconnected from their voters,” says an advocate who opposes a new Missouri proposal making citizen-led initiatives harder to pass.

They screwed this case up six ways from Sunday and destroyed four innocent men's lives. Not only that, they were demagogues and assholes about it, and entirely too grudging about revisiting valid innocence claims. The system failed here nearly every way it could fail.

Performance artists ICE fishing with donuts is an existential threat to the republic.

It's stunning to me how bad the experience is when you click on almost any news site on mobile. Obtuse cookie pop-ups, ad pop-ups, videos playing in the corner that you can't remove, articles hidden under hard-to-find "read more" tags, text that doesn't snap to screen size...what are we doing?

if trump sees this chart, i'm cooked

....Nor should anyone else

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

So, Trump is at war with....Portland? Yup, we are way past hyperbole now, we are in the period where the MILITARY has authorization to suppress and kill protesters

Once we are at war with Venezuela the Alien Enemies Act leaves the courts powerless to stop ICE from throwing anyone they want to call a "Venezuelan" into camps and deporting those people end masse to anywhere in the world that will take them. Normalizing this state of exception means we're all next

War-ravaged Portland

Mornin, @thehill.com

ROFLOL They think we are all stupid (and so far, they have been proven right...sigh)

Even if we took what the indictment claims at face value (and you shouldn't)... this would be complete fucking nonsense.

/2 Anyway the carceral state did its very best to jail those wrong guys forever and, until they got this DNA hit, the carceral state and its supporters would have said you were a terrible un-American person for doubting their guilt or questioning the prosecution.

The way the media spins stories like this is “look how the dogged cops cleared this terrible quadruple-murder 34 years later” and not “oh by the way they totally accused and convicted the wrong guys before, oops lol” www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Trump DOJ: -overruling career prosecutors to indict Trump's political opponents -suing states to get sensitive voter data -urging SCOTUS to gut Voting Rights Act -helping GOP states gerrymander mid-decade A 5 alarm fire on every front www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The rare "arrest a lot of immigrants" and kill citizens double-feature....He is such a total jacka**

Labeling domestic political opponents as "terrorists" and characterizing a US city as being at war as pretexts for deploying troops against US citizens.

Please everyone in #WarRavagedPortland post your best photographs of the devastation there so that you will not suffer alone!!

"Okay. Well." is the new "Ah, well, nevertheless."

Hot take (apparently) Secret Police are bad

Supreme Court rules 6-3 that congressional appropriations are optional: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Bathroom vanities are now “national security”.

There is so little transparency on how shadow docket decisions are made that I'm tempted to read into Kagan's note that the justices didn't get to deliberate in conference. Do they get to for some applications? Maybe, maybe not www.courthousenews.com/supreme-cour...

Not anywhere near as much as when you cut health care, food support, and other benefits....(as you ramp up to cut them even more deeply) ...also, you control all three branches of government...and could have compromised, but decided to break off discussions

WATCH: “All of it goes back to one thing: GREED… I’m sick of oligarchs & billionaires while Michiganders go hungry.” MICHIGAN senate candidate @AbdulElSayed shows how the ultra-rich take more than they need by trying to scarf down a 12-stack burger🍔

We will make sure to remember this one if the majority ever changes again.

Yes sir we're chanting "Release the Earhart Files"

A listicle? You thought this headline, for this story, should be a listicle? Pretty much sums up the Maggie Haberman experience, I guess www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/u...

Not only is this foreign aid stay an assault on the separation of powers and rule of law, it’s also an assault on Congress as an institution. If Congress can’t tell the executive to spend money, what can it *actually* do?

Oh look just now more seemingly weaponized prosecution www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

Hot take (apparently) Secret Police are bad

This can’t be right, bc I swear it was just yesterday that one of the legal academy’s top con law types, teaching at one of the top-most law-schools, confidently said that both Thomas and Alito were committed to small-l liberalism.

Expect any non-citizen (for now) in any position of power to be harassed and abused on pretext by the secret police.

this woman has been working at Nintendo for almost 20 years and nearly a decade longer than the guy she is replacing how much more qualified does she have to be lol

Sinclair caves! Well done, all! variety.com/2025/tv/news...

I think the only surprise here is how quickly this is happening this openly. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/b...

A racist white-nationalist a**hole says what?

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!" Social Security - "That's socialism!" Debt free education - "That's socialism!" Universal childcare - "That's socialism!" Bailing out a failed libertarian austerity agenda in Argentina... "That's just how it is."

Man did Arizona's kicker ruin that one for them...good lord

Being anti capitalist makes you a terrorist? Well, thanks Jeff Bezos I guess for establishing that it’s wrong think to be anti capitalist in one of our nation’s biggest and most important newspapers where no one is allowed to defend critiques of capitalism.
