I mean this was a known thing about him, for decades. Media coverage should be instead focusing on why TPUSA keeps platforming people who are supposedly at odds with their values. This is a story about the constellation of conservative media and what it says vs. what it does.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Seahawks fandom has been an amazing prep course for the experience of my copartisans getting mad at the team for winning wrong

JUST IN: A federal judge has barred ICE and DHS from using taxpayer information provided by the IRS. Judge Talwani says that DHS' view that noncitizens lack 4th amendment rights — combined with ICE use of administrative warrants — is a recipe for abuse. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Democrats need to speed up Epstein prosecutions…

COONS: Joe, it's same rules NYPD follows. Do you see roving bands of NYPD w/ masks using bear spray on people? KERNEN: You lost the election! That doesn't give you right to shut down govt C: I have to fight for the core value of our democracy, including law enforcement that doesn't murder citizens

Voting for this every time:

Has everyone seen this video from @pocan.house.gov ? No of course not because it has less than 1000 views, but it is absolutely amazing and everyone needs to see it.

Despicable, evil soulless monsters.

For those who don't know, Luttig was once considered the intellectual heir to Scalia. He was about as conservative a judge as you could find...

"David Axelrod said, 'people sitting around the table talking about democracy' could do so 'probably because they don’t have to worry about the food they have on the table.'" More than one thing can be bad or important at once.

The Department of Homeland Security is using administrative subpoenas, a secretive tool issued without a judge's signature, to go after people lawfully reporting ICE activity or criticizing DHS policies. This is a direct attack on our First Amendment rights and we're fighting back.

in a democratic republic (and really in all times and places) the slavish hunger to be in the thrall of a strongman or a king is the ultimate moral degeneracy.

Yes. Michael Jordan was clearly a DEI hire…

Warnock to Bessent: "Manufacturers shed workers in each of the eight months after President Trump unveiled his tariffs on 'liberation day.' I would submit it's a strange liberation and a curious freedom that leaves you unemployed."

This is real, and it’s located near Tesla’s flagship London store in Tottenham.

I have to wonder if anybody notices anymore.

New schedule conflict bout to drop…

New Quinnipiac poll: 63% of voters disapprove of ICE 60% want ICE out of Minneapolis 58% want Kristi Noem removed from office

AMEN!

OUR NATIONAL DIVORCE LAWYER NEVER ASKED FOR TOM CRUISE…

I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." … She offered me $2600 to self-deport. I refused. I wanted to talk to my attorney. They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’

If we’ve learned one thing from this administration, it’s that it can always get worse…

One in five Republican voters now support abolishing ICE

Boom!

This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care. It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back. www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/i...

Pay attention. Concentration camps are being built right now.

Money can buy happiness. If Elon Musk built a rocket and shot himself into the fucking sun that would generate massive happiness.

NEW: @rokhanna.bsky.social is calling for Congress to haul in every person who emailed Epstein about visiting his island. He says he won’t rest until those who committed these crimes are held accountable. #EpsteinFiles

Thread: So on this day when one of the oligarchs of our digitized and dystopic world is emptying one of America's greatest newsrooms of trained and committed journalists, I thought I would regale you all with a wonderful little anecdote about our world to come. It involves two of the finest...

Redistricting did not turn out how Trump wanted. So, now he is resorting to political prosecutions, ballot seizures and the threat of federal paramilitary to steal the 2026 midterms. He is normalizing the idea that his administration will take over ballot counting. We cannot let that happen.

#WITAOD IS SO BACK, BABY!!!

Gonna write this up at more length. But if you believe Trump's goons will not follow the law, if you believe Trump will reverse November's election. Your job is NOT to doom monger. It is to treat people-in-the-streets as the one remaining measure.

This thread:

there's something unholy about the Trump administration being laser focused on "fraud" while Trump pardons an endless clown car of fraudsters and bilks taxpayers at every opportunity. it's just transparently absurd.

Great work! I met someone from an earlier iteration of that team at SXSW a few years back—they had really cool t-shirts using that icon family on offer… Cc @erikahall.bsky.social @joannapenabickley.bsky.social

Brian Kilmeade from Fox literally just said out loud that ICE pulled out of Maine to protect Susan Collins’ re‑election campaign. I can’t believe he would just admit that.

"Senate Dems considered a requirement banning ICE agents from polling sites as a demand in negotiating the DHS funding bill. But that was not included in their final list..." Crazy idea: Given what Trump's said, update the "final list" to include it. politi.co/4t6pxt0

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

Way out of ICE’s statuatory mission…
