The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

Kristi Noem: "When it gets to Election Day, we've been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country."

INBOX: Rep. Thomas Massie, who has enraged Trump for his insistence on blocking tariffs and releasing the Epstein files according to the law, just issued what is widely known among Chinese dissidents as "a declaration of no suicidal intent" (不自殺聲明), a sign of extreme distress.

Welp.

no foreign foe has ever dreamed of being able to sack and pillaging this country the way Trump admin and its congressional and scotus enablers do every day.

Another entry in the ICE misogyny files.

"you're gonna get in trouble for that" *stone-faced* "okay" goddamn son

If you don't know where to send great book-themed V-Day cards, I recommend Tx State Rep Hillary Hickland, who just called anyone upset about books being banned from schools a "groomer" who shouldn't be near kids. Reach out & let her know what you think: [email protected]

The default assumption should be that they’re lying

Oh.

Bruh.

Thought of the day: They Live had it completely backwards. We're heading for a future where only the people wearing the special glasses are fully immersed in a landscape of propaganda and corporate mindfucks and the rest of us can glimpse the truth

May this follow her the rest of her miserable life.

In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

NEW: A federal tool meant to find noncitizens on voter rolls is consistently marking citizens as noncitizens, especially if they were born outside the U.S., causing chaos as election clerks try not to disenfranchise voters, @zachdespart.bsky.social and I found. 🧵 www.propublica.org/article/save...

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

so wait el paso airspace got shut down in a turf war over DOD letting the worst racists in the government drunk drive a laser cannon

oh so just dumb luck these idiots didn’t shoot down a passenger aircraft

*rings dinner bell* yall come eat Can't wait till you read the non social headline

Some of these houses may well become museums.

Don't! Be Evil!

What this man is describing would seem to constitute crimes against humanity under international law. Other governments could and should contest the abuses he’s describing the U.S. government committing against migrants.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?” There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

"Images obtained by CBS News appear to show the zip ties and bruised wrists of Anabel Romero's 14-year-old daughter SueHey, a U.S. citizen who was tending to her 6- and 8-year-old siblings when the agents descended on the crowd in military-style gear and herded them into a confined area."

Mainers, be warned: Susan Collins lied. ICE is still here, and still abducting people, including (reportedly) a child today in Brunswick, and ~17 people, an entire bus full of workers, in Skowhegan. Non-Mainers: don't forget us, and don't forget Minnesota — nothing has changed. #Maine #mepolitics

This is what ICE looks like

This is the 38th time that the U.S. military has unlawfully killed civilians on the orders of Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump. At least 130 people — never charged with crimes, their identities unknown to their executioners — are now dead.

When a headline says it all:

Gravity is powerful: "What has changed is not Trump’s racism (which is the same as it ever was) but Trump’s poll numbers (which have dropped precipitously)"

When you get visited by three Puerto Rican ghosts

The conservative former Dem member of congress who led the Dem's House election effort in 2020 when we lost 13 seats has some new funder-friendly ideas about how to win.

These are the kinds of cases Tom Homan means when he says they’re prioritizing targeting people with “criminal records”

Pundits like to talk about liberal bubbles and echo chambers but we are not the ones crashing out over a performance by one of the most popular musicians in the world

In Boston ICE randomly pulled over this huge white Irish guy with a Mass drivers license, 20 years in the states, legal status, pending green card and have held him for 5 months, his citizen wife paid a $4k bond that was ignored(!) ICE forged his signature on deportation agreement, no appeal

Despite ICE promises to pursue 'the worst of the worst', 87% of the folks grabbed up during the Maine surge have no known criminal record. But instead of hauling Kristi Noem in front of her committee -- or holding hearings at all -- Susan Collins wants to give the paramilitary more $$. #MEpolitics

Excellent reporting work here. “Of the 67 people identified by the BDN, 58 of them lacked a criminal record that could be independently verified despite claims that the operation was meant to capture the “worst of the worst” #mepolitics www.bangordailynews.com/2026/02/09/m...

Please take the time to read what the children detained in Dilley wrote me in their own words: www.propublica.org/article/ice-... 10/

Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities: Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

Last week the far right started peddling a narrative that the outrage over Epstein is a moral panic. Today, like clockwork, a more polite version of that narrative appears in the Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

In any other administration the editorial pages would be heavy with calls for Lutnick to resign. But our media has become billionaire deformed and scandal normed.

If you're a business owner who fires someone you have assigned to an overseas job and you don't buy them a plane ticket home you should actually go to prison

Consider all the drivers, hotel staff, and restaurant staff that these people have exposed while taking their annual victory lap around ending the right to an abortion

😢

The media moved on when trump said he had a new tone because as the constitution states the president is the editor in chief of all news outlets

The White House did a dishonest y-axis so I fixed their y-axis for them, you’re welcome White House www.howtoreadthisch.art/lets-conside...

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. went hunting for dinosaur bones in the Dakotas with child sex traffickers Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Will any of the reporters who credulously peddled the "rogue staffer" story issue retractions or burn their anonymous sources? Don't print lies in the newspaper
