Tom Homan took a bag of cash from an undercover FBI agent the right way. by Ezra Klein

11) Here’s the guy city and state officials must arrest and charge. This is after the incident calmly talking w/News Nation reporters to get his version. This is the version the media will put out.

🧵This is a serious use of force violation. The violent attack of this woman must be prosecuted by Chicago/Illinois for violation of state’s rights. I’m going to break this down. You see her blocking the ICE van. Agents violently push her to the ground. Then you see 1 guy target her & choke her.

Women of substance lead. THIS entire thread. Do not look away. We the People, ALL of us, are the enemy to the regime.

The people they are kidnapping are disappearing.

The canisters are HEAVY and they go fast, by the way. You can really fuck a body up doing this

I recall an anonymous quote from an elected Democrat asking with exasperation: do people expect us to put our bodies on the line? @katmabu.bsky.social did it. She gets it. All the respect.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Trump wants to deport Narciso Barranco. To his neighbors and his three sons in the Marines, he's a hero and Trump is nuts.

*siiiiiiigggghhhh*

I can’t say I’m surprised, but I am certainly appalled. This is a dark day for public health. I believe it is most appropriate to refer to this committee as RFKJ’s ACIP. He handpicked all these members to get the result that he wanted.

Mike Pence makes the point that Spencer Cox made. Trump will hate him even more for this.

They are rounding up immigrants. They are rounding up critics of the genocide in Gaza. Now they are talking about rounding up trans people. Where does this stop? talkingpointsmemo.com/news/texas-c...

No law authorizes him to designate a man with a clock tattoo a member of Tren de Aragua for removal under the alien enemies act. No law authorizes him to change the name of the DoD. No law authorizes him to murder boatloads of migrants on the Caribbean. Or use troops for law enforcement

Sally Rooney unable to collect award over Palestine Action arrest threat

What is to prevent Brendan Carr from canceling the licenses of affiliates who accurately report election results unfavorable to Trump? Or a scandal involving a Trump associate? Or bad economic numbers. Unbridled authoritarianism.

SNL should run a normal show, with the slight addition that every sketch has three or four men dressed up like ICE agents and FCC officials standing in the background looking menacing. Maybe they disappear Colin Jost in the middle of Weekend Update too.

Don't buy the canard that this is about Charlie Kirk. Abusing state power to lean on corporate leaders and get Jimmy Kimmel off the air because he told jokes about the president and made him feel bad was always the plan.

Let's all to take a deep breath & understand that we have reached the phase in fascism where if they want to declare you a criminal, you are a criminal. You can not magically avoid it, or do exactly the right thing to stay off the list. Fascism must always have enemies, and one day you will be one.

It’s worse than that, he’s leveraging the full force and weight of the U.S. GOVT AGAINST a U.S. ALLY over a reporter asking a question about his PERSONAL BUSINESS MATTERS But… “cALlIng mE A FaSCist is iNFLAmmatory”!!!

Genocide Catch-22: everyone has to wait until you've killed a bunch of people before everyone agrees it counts as genocide.

this lawsuit is just a billboard for my colleagues' hard work in questioning power and holding it to account www.nytimes.com/2025/09/16/b...

This week's "hate speech isn't free speech" calamity has, somehow, reached another new low: The president of the United States suggesting that speech he finds unfair to him is hate speech, and targetable by the Justice Department. We are in deeply dangerous territory.

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

President Trump warns an Australian reporter that he’s hurting Australia because he asked him about his business activity: You are hurting Australia very much right now. They want to get along with me. Your leader is coming to see me soon, I'm going to tell him about you.

The Washington Post is doing the work of the far right — firing a progressive Black woman who consistently spoke out for justice. Why? Because she wrote truthfully about the sources of American political violence & quoted Charlie Kirk's own racist, misogynist words. Clearly Trumped up charges. 👇🏽

Grok is being sent to the reeducation camp

Meanwhile in Korean media there is clarity that Trump directed this raid out of spite following his Oval Office meeting with the ROK President, who pushed back aggressively on Trump's praise for the North Korean dictator. They're right. US media have no clue of what's going on.

The most important reporting in NYT this week, and although the scope is impressive and the detail deep, it contains little information that could not have been reported by NYT in April, and was in fact not timely reported. bsky.app/profile/nyti...

"We spend all our time in bed, knitting, sleeping, eating soup, watching TV, and raising our sad, malnourished grandson. Until recently, none of us had left the bed in over twenty years, but a candy-related miracle has resulted in a sudden vacancy."

“Mr. Van Hollen saw a different lesson [from his role in the Abrego Garcia case]. ‘This finger in the wind stuff has got to end. We also need to stop deluding ourselves that the problem is all about messaging, or about volume, or style. We don’t just need to fight. We need to fight for something.’”

This Ukrainian orchestra created an overture imitating the sound of Russian Shahed drone attack. And I guarantee you it’s one of the most chilling things you’d ever hear. This is exactly how drone attack sounds like : the nauseating moped-like
