So, when I first drew this, it was obviously in a month where October 13th, fell on a friday. Perhaps the only thing scarier than that, is a Friday the 13th that falls... ON A MONDAY!!!

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation Depraved. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

He was in the domestic terminal. They knew who he was. They did nothing other than, without a warrant; nor any reasonable suspicion, seize his phone. It was targeted. www.universalhub.com/2025/regime-...

LLMs are doubly deceptive. Most people think that they can ask it a question and get an answer. The majority of the rest think that you can ask an LLM a question and it will return what an answer might look like, statistically. But it's actually even worse. It doesn't "read" the prompt; it guesses.

"The original #NoKings protest was 250 years ago. We've had democracy since then. Now we have a would-be king who wants to take it away—King Donald the First. Fuck that. Stand up and be counted in the nationwide No Kings protest on October 18." 👉👉 nokings.org

I guess that‘s it. The final nail. Say goodbye to real elections.

The 2025 Nobel Peace Price is an elegant middle finger to Trump!

TOP: Prem shares a clip of Noem saying “we’re going to take the same approach with Antifa” as they did with the boats they bombed (without evidence) BOTTOM: Ingraham’s latest segment saying “they’re all Antifa now”🤔 BOTTOM LINE: We are over the cliff here, folks

Democracy drowns in money.

Unbeknownst to most or long forgotten is that on October 8 and October 10, 2023; Hamas offered the same deal that’s being pitched as Trump’s “Gaza Peace Deal” which would have handed all hostages over to Israel in exchange for Israeli troops not entering the strip, Netanyahu refused the proposal.

People ask what they can do in this moment: here's a crucially important election. There are 52,000 elections taking place next month, many of which will be determined by turnout.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece. It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out. 1/2

"Republicans in the Senate are trying to rewrite history to make Jack Smith the bad guy and Donald Trump the innocent victim. It's complete bullshit and the article explains why. So I hope you'll read it." Read it from @saletan.bsky.social in today's Morning Shots www.thebulwark.com/p/bondi-host...

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

U.S. Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva won her election two weeks ago. Republicans refuse to seat her in Congress.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent. Will you? www.democracydocket.com/opinion/i-re...

I don't get these fuckwads. ONLY Nancy Pelosi could call up the National Guard on Jan 6, but, the President can call up the National Guard wherever he wants, whenever he wants? How about some of our press start asking about this?

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

This is beyond sickening. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This guy sounds like a fucking lunatic.

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

It seems clear—I think to everyone, now—that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

Last year they claimed “illegals” were voting, without any evidence. They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws. Now they claim “illegals” are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence. So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans. Enough.

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

🚨Justice for Jayvon Givan! Another young black man has been found hanging from a tree, this time in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Not a single news article, not a single minute of media coverage. The Albuquerque police department is ruling this as a suicide.

"Don’t Democrats need to say, in light of new circumstances, that they will not vote to fund an administration that’s trying to impose martial law at home and to start unauthorized and unjustified wars abroad?" This has to be about more than healthcare. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-rule-o...

21st century McCarthyism innovating new ways to ignore the first amendment.

A new poll shows 75% of Americans believe Trump has not focused enough on lowering prices. Trump responds to that by just lying about prices. Don’t believe your lying eyes or empty wallets - believe a serial liar making billions in the Middle East!

the thing about the “official antifa” citation is that it is just definitive evidence that she’s a stone cold dumbass

The judge's husband, Arnold Goodstein, "was airlifted after breaking multiple bones in his hips, legs and feet after escaping from the four-bedroom, four-bathroom home," according to the linked story. He's 81 years old. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_...

Investments in AI are the only reason the economy is not shrinking.

Is it just my paranoia or do I really see an uptick on in-fighting on bluesky that smells like it is instigated by agent provocateurs?

I have a new theory. Maybe they are amping up their attack on the states, the citizens and the rules of law because they know that they have to replace Trump very soon and that the next president and vp will face a lot of resistance. Who wouldn‘t protest a VP Miller?

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Per the NYT average, Trump's polling has gone from +9 at inauguration to -11 (pretty stably for the last two weeks), a swing of 20 points. It's basically the same drop as Biden suffered over the same time frame, which included what was regarded as his disastrous collapse bc of the Afghan withdrawal.

“There’s a baby!” Guns drawn. Windows smashed. With a 1 month old in the car. (They did this as he was coming home from an immigration court appointment— which is illegal in Colorado: coloradosun.com/2025/10/01/i...)

Absolutely. Seems Trump just ran to stay out of prison and promised everyone everything. He wants his vengeance and golf time,with a side of legacy. Project 2025 to finally dismantle the govt? Sure. RFKs votes to unleash him with his wack conspiracies? Why not? And everything is for sale of course

Anytime I read any dumbass pro unitary executive opinion I just want them to explain why precisely they believe we elect senators and congressmen.
