People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

⚡️Europe 'no longer at peace' with Russia, Germany's Merz says. "Let me put it in a sentence that may be a little shocking at first glance ... we are not at war, but we are no longer at peace either," German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said on Sept. 29.

One day I will get to be as relaxed as this cat again. I hope...

Rey, when I let her know I was leaving for work.

Fuck. Get your shot, people.

Mikie Sherrill: "There's no mistake that was made here. This was intentional ... there's really no doubt in my mind that this was fully intentional from the Trump administration to the Ciattarelli campaign to attempt to do this."

“The behavior was pure misogynistic abuse, and it’s a growing movement in American culture right now.” www.glamour.com/story/the-mi...

let’s see if this week can be a little less unhinged…ah well

Please, sir, shove your boot harder into our mouths

Trump deleted his bizarre post featuring an AI video of him endorsing “medbeds,” which raises the question of whether he’s so confused that he thought it was a real video of him talking

The alleged shooter in Michigan. Weird that Vance and Patel haven’t tweeted out this info. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽 www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

The Trump sign outside the shooter’s home has fueled heated speculation about his politics online, as authorities have yet to identify a motive for the attack. trib.al/QCw78op

Reminder: In his first term, President Trump ordered his then Secretary of Defense Mark Esper to shoot protestors. ht: @rpsagainsttrump.bsky.social

At least the UK papers are reporting the truth. US media is afraid to anger Trump www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...

State-run attorney-disciplinary committees, however, will continue their operations uninterrupted

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

SCOOP / UPDATE — Disney saw more than 1.7 million total paid streaming cancelations during the period 9/17-9/23, a Disney source confirms to me. The total includes Disney+, Hulu and ESPN.

The number of cancelations Disney saw in the week after suspending Kimmel was 436% above baseline subscriber churn.

Maxwell Frost: "To be honest, this is something Trump said he would do. We all knew it during the campaign. He said he would be a 'dictator on day one.' The only thing he lied about is he meant 'I want to be a dictator for the entire term.'"

"I am proud to shut down the government .... I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down." —Donald Trump, Dec. 11, 2018

This morning was spent watching the sunrise while listening to the stags bellow

A victim of the shooting at the ICE facility is UNCONSCIOUS, in critical care, may not survive, his wife is about to give birth, and ICE IS KEEPING HIM SHACKLED TO HIS HOSPITAL BED: I just unlocked a new level of rage. www.npr.org/2025/09/27/n...

Not sure I could come up with three people I would trust less with the lives of Palestinians than Trump, Netanyahu and Blair

The state could have backed him but instead they demonstrated for the thousandth time that there is no level of respectability that will prevent white people from serving you up on a platter in order to appease powerful racists.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

The Art of the Shakedown.

Completely missed this. So did much of the lame-ass media. US added to Human Rights Watchlist due to sustained attacks on civil liberties. And the fucker thinks he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. 😡😡😡 time.com/7306493/us-h...

1209 days to go. #bigorangefuckupcountdown No step on escapator!

Andy McCarthy: "The indictment almost fails as an indictment in that it doesn't give you notice of what Comey has actually done. But factually there's nothing there. So this smacks of wanting to put Comey through the process, which is what lawfare is."

Perhaps it was Joe Biden's autopen? 🤔🤔🙄

Ty Cobb: "The simple theme is rewriting history. Trump wants to rewrite history so the next generation may not know that he incited a violent insurrection... America needs to learn from the mistakes that we've had. And one of the biggest mistakes that America ever had was reelecting President Trump"

I don't think that those numbers are good for Trump because a) he might not be up for reelection but those kind of numbers are not good for Republicans in 2026, and b) they are before most people feel the worst impacts of tariffs and inflation Things are going to be even worse for Donald soon.

New in PN: Comey and the lessons of pre-capitulation "Other institutionalists are going to face the kinds of choices and incentives that Comey did. Hopefully they will look at the sad, gutted remnants of his beloved Justice Department and choose a different path."

🇲🇩 Moldova, you’ve done it again. 
No attempt to sow fear or division could break your resolve. You made your choice clear: 
Europe. Democracy. Freedom. Our door is open. And we will stand with you every step of the way.
 The future is yours.

that's so weird, john roberts assured me the immunity decision meant this would not happen??

Wouldn't it be simpler for Trump to just announce which public figures that he wasn't going to have prosecuted and tell the DOJ to get on with making up charges for the others.

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

Republicans would rather bring the entire government to a halt than risk bringing a pedophile to justice.

Moldova’s vote is a clear yes to a European future. Despite Russia’s massive efforts to spread disinformation and buy votes, no force can stop a people committed to freedom. We stand with Moldova on their path to the EU.

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek in Portland: "I will not be approving utilization of the Oregon national Guard. The President does not have the authority to deploy federal troops on State soil."
