"Sutton’s no angel. He’ll be the first to tell you about his roguish life, inglorious mistakes, and lengthy arrest record. But what happened to him during a traffic-stop-gone-terribly-wrong one November day in 2020 still haunts him." jerseyvindicator.org/2025/10/07/f...

in a new post, trump claims he has a 65% approval rating. he is trying to manufacture consent. don't let him: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/a-lot-of-p...

at this point you have to acknowledge that there is no way that these guys don't try to mess with the 2026 midterms. there is absolutely no respect for the legitimacy of the opposition

This is rich coming from a bone spur guy.

"Barbie acts interested as old white guy complains." - the template for all RW media

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Never has a group developed so complete a hearing problem as Republicans confronted with actual words that Trump has said over the last decade.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

New Jersey towns can’t fight forever chemicals in drinking water alone; they need a centralized PFAS response center PFAS — per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances — are not just an environmental hazard. They are an urgent public health issue threatening communities across New Jersey. Known as…

At this point, whenever I hear ICE or other law enforcement yell “Stop Resisting,” I assume that the person isn’t resisting and the officer is yelling it to excuse his own violence towards the person.

"The Black Hundreds are being organized in the United States," he said. "This is the beginning. There will be more of it. The Iron Heel is getting bold."

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)

The 1,000 or so undocumented snatched by ICE and held in Newark's Delaney Hall have endured abuse and neglect, including inedible food, foul water, frigid cells and guards who goad detainees into fights and retaliate against those who complain. jerseyvindicator.org/2025/09/25/i...

Jimmy Kimmel’s return proves that pressure works. But the corporate-controlled media still can’t be trusted. As Maya Angelou said, when people show you who they are, believe them the first time.

Sure seems like he's missing some banners behind him right now...

We want comedy, not fascism.

The year is 1999. You are watching The Man Show with Adam Carolla and Jimmy Kimmel. By 2025 one will be a right wing grifter, the other will be fired as a bellwether of encroaching Fascism. You take a drink of Mountain Dew code red and change the channel.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

This is some bulls**t.

And so ABC bows to Dear Leader. What the fuck is happening in this country

Jersey Vindicator contributor Andres Kudacki captured a photo of Donald Trump on Sunday that went viral.

Rewatching All the President’s Men (10th time) I realize the difference between journalism 50 years ago and now isn’t the reporters, it’s the owners and editors. Back then the bosses loved the news and were committed to the truth. Today only profit matters. Integrity is ancient history.

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

I used to read books like Lord of the Rings or watch movies like Star Wars and think the villains were unbelievable. And of course, now watching the tech oligarchs (who could not spend all their money if they tried) destroy civilization for power, I’m like, guess I was wrong. People are that awful.

Republican governors have sent National Guard troops to Democratic-led Washington, D.C., even though cities in their states all have higher rates of violent crime than the nation’s capital. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...

Hey mainstream media colleagues: you cannot be deported to a country you are not from. That’s kidnapping and trafficking. Call it that. You are lying if you say otherwise.

That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.

Supposedly, Trump's people just wanted Alina Habba away from him so they made her New Jersey's U.S. attorney. Today, a judge will hear arguments about whether they did it illegally. My story for the @jerseyvindicator.bsky.social. jerseyvindicator.org/2025/08/14/f...

The state's highest court said the attorney general was allowed to take over the perennially-troubled Paterson police department — but only because lawmakers supported the move. jerseyvindicator.org/2025/07/24/n...

The Trump administration is locked in a dogfight with the judiciary over New Jersey’s top federal prosecutor. What we know as of Wednesday evening, July 23.

This makes me smile.

wow he didn’t even thank them for their attention to this matter

I don't know if ICE released this woman because of my @jerseyvindicator.bsky.social story. But I do know it feels good to be on the right side again — and making some kind of difference, even if it's just for one person. jerseyvindicator.org/2025/06/09/i...

The cruelty is intolerable.

Habeas corpus is your right to not be unlawfully imprisoned or detained without charges. If they suspend this, it is time to hit the streets. This is absolutely no joke.
