This is a 12-year-old boy who was SHOT TWICE gathering food for his family and then BEATEN UNCONSCIOUS by Israeli forces in Gaza. He's just a kid. Soccer is his favorite sport. Lionel Messi is his hero. A Palestinian child was being killed or injured every 10 minutes, according to UN agencies.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver this week is a complete takedown of Bari Weiss... and it's thorough and devastating. And a bit of interesting timing, given that Weiss's new boss, David Ellison (who is talked about in the episode) is trying to buy HBO, where Oliver's show is...

If any child in your life has an IEP or 504 plan: Trump fired (we think) all of the employees in the office at the US Department of Education that disburses special education funds from the federal government that school districts use to pay for those plans.

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

The Price of Peace

Fight fascism. Be a frog. We must capture a video of an ICE agent assaulting a frog.

What a petty, vindictive, and no-class bastard!

I have never forgotten the oath I raised my hand for. I never will.

It’s the inequality

Thankfully, some of yesterday's CDC firings have been rescinded. But this should be a major scandal, not business as usual in this shitshow of an administration. It's either spectacular incompetence or an effort to make even politically untouchable positions feel precarious to those in them.

Epstein files giving House Republicans over two months paid vacation and counting.

Democratic mayors & governors talk tough & then sit back doing jack shit while their cops brutalize pro-democracy protesters

“War-torn” Chicago has officially won the #1 big city in the US in the @cntraveler.bsky.social’s 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards for the 9th year in a row. “a world-class destination known for its impressive architecture, first-rate museums, brilliant chefs, and massive brewing scene.” #NoKings

really striking the degree to which not a single person working in the trump administration appears to be interested in serving the american people

So now the Administration are saying that the mass firing of CDC scientists, including many responsible for preventing outbreaks, was an “error” and many will be brought back. Whether by intention or incompetence, dismantling public health will kill people.

If Brad Smith is choosing this, that's fine: not the choice I'd make but then again I'm able to communicate so maybe I'd feel differently if I had his limitations Given Musk's history of lying, I'm very concerned that Brad Smith is not making any choices at all

Hi hello did you know that Elon Musk's third Neuralink patient (previously nonverbal) is "getting help from Grok" to communicate and I hope -- I REALLY HOPE -- he's not stuck in his own brain listening as a robot talks for him without his input because this, to me, would be worse than death

it’s honestly just a stunning performance in a film that would’ve probs been fairly forgettable with anyone other than keaton in that role her facial expressions alone should’ve been nominated for an award, they’re so sublimely perfect

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

So if Russ Vought and Bob Kennedy were deliberately trying on behalf of an enemy to sicken and kill Americans by destroying the public health structure - what would they be doing differently?

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility They kidnapped a disabled child!

🚨 Nearly 90% of people in ICE custody are held in facilities run by for-profit companies. Geo Group (NYSE: GEO) and CoreCivic (NYSE: CXW) investors: Wolf Hill Capital Management: $181 mil stake in GEO River Road Asset Management: $172 mil stake in CXW Don't profit from Concentration Camps #DIVEST

This whole movement is one of the greatest activities in the information domain that I have seen from Americans over the past 9 months. Bravo. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted: When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

I’m not trying to give @pbs.org ideas for raising money—but I am. I would buy women’s fit T-shirts of all my favorite childhood shows. Reading rainbow, 321 contact, square one, zoobiliee zoo. I feel like two generations will run to donate even more money for shirts with Levar Burton on them…

Lol majority Whip Republican Tom Emmer said people going to the No Kings Marches are terrorists and hate America... what a delusional asshole www.yahoo.com/news/article...

This is not a border crossing. There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior. This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

This kind of kidnapping, whether it's otherwise law-abiding undocumented workers, or 🇺🇸 citizens, ICE thugs act like they get a bounty per head (they already get a $50K signing bonus), these goons would have been slave catchers back in the day. 🧾 is.gd/DXT9x7 MORE⬇️

The president of the United States is getting flu and COVID booster shots but telling YOU that you shouldn’t and that removing access across every state via the pharmacies.

What he not saying is that his friends and cronies invested a fortune in Argentina since their guy Milei won, they stand to lose a big chunk of those fortunes the way things are going, and Argentina’s elections are in two weeks and we are tampering in them to bail Milei out.

The definition of craziness is doing more of what’s not working

"Well it was nice while it lasted. We had an unprecedented 10 months of low and stable Covid levels in England - but this is now over. We are seeing a definite, significant wave of Covid infections across England."

The thing about Thiel and Miller that gets me is they've both chosen to align themselves with people that will seek to destroy them the second their vision is achieved.

Google it! It's always a Republican Politician who strays from their moral compass they claim to follow!
