This.

I think this is what they call a Mamdate.

Wow, look at all of us!

The Times is being very charitable to their endorsed candidate with that “embellishment.” No way they would let Wilson get away with the plainly false counting used to arrive at this number. Not to mention, even if it were true it is far fewer than needed.

CHICAGO — WGN News editor/producer Debbie Brockman grabbed by Trump’s ICE goons.. who then intentionally ram a bystander’s car as they peel away. More: www.fox32chicago.com/news/wgn-new...

Very bad sign.

Go comment to preserve voting rights. Do it today.

Netanyahu openly says he "supports the idea of a 'Greater Israel,' which is a batshit crazy idea, which some people used to say was a conspiracy theory on the far right." Me to Piers Morgan on his show today. Full show: youtube.com/watch?v=Kmdm...

How is Bill Kristol the one who distills today’s news perfectly?

Useful thread.

If you don’t want to be called N*azis, don’t compare yourselves to N*azis. I don’t make the rules.

We can’t be seen as portraying Palestinians as regular people who, were they not being systematically starved and driven from their homes, would be attending school or university. -Harvard, probably

I’m seeing many reposts of Donald Trump’s demented distraction from the Jeffrey Epstein mess about Rosie O’Donnell. What I’m not seeing is her sassy response. Here it is:

Great thread, food for thought. (See what I did there?)

Yup.

An old cartoon from his first term. We can’t say we weren’t warned.

Useful!

Once again, it’s funny because it’s true.

WTF?!

This. Today’s fireworks are fun to watch, but the result could blow up plenty of things we all rely on.

Thread on ICE activity today in Chicago. They’re just grabbing non-citizens regardless of the legality of detention. Yes, deportations are up. But they’re not targeting actual criminals at all; many detained have a legitimate path to citizenship or other status, not undocumented nor here illegally.

Elon Musk got high and fed those kids into the wood chipper. Republicans in Congress, led by Trump, let him do it. They could have stopped it before it even happened but they didn’t. Every day they don’t stop this madness is a policy decision.

And there it is. The US government is in the process of being transformed into an openly white supremacist authoritarian regime.

Holy f*ck, this person should never be in charge of any government agency, especially not one that regularly detains people.

If you see this, post your getaway vehicle.

ICYMI: Trump is going after students across the country. These students were on VALID visas. Revoking them is unacceptable. www.kuow.org/stories/stat...

Apropos of nothing in particular, what’s the statute of limitations on insider trading?

Hegseth is play-acting at what he *thinks* a SecDef does. It would be laughable if he weren’t actually SecDef.

Been using Signal for private group chats for years and NOT ONCE did anyone accidentally include a random journalist.

Terrifying, essential reading

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂

Trans kids didn’t hike your rent. Billionaires did. Immigrants didn’t make your groceries more expensive. Billionaires did. Federal workers didn’t take away your health care. Billionaires did.

Good trouble in Vermont. This is the way. kottke.org/25/03/jd-van...

It’s funny because it’s true.

Pretty much, but replace “toddler” with “senile sociopath”

This makes me happy. Huge respect to those who worked their asses off for this.

It’s important that they don’t give a shit about demonstrating how racist they are.

Thread with updates. Holy crap, y’all. All our info is leaked. They have access to the *code* so be sure they are installing a back door for access even if their official access is revoked.

Accurate

Musk is now in the system where he can personally look at anyone’s taxes. Have you filed yet?

FAFO: you’re not Musk, neither money nor Trump will protect you from the consequences of your actions. As the Anglicans say in the article: “We believe that those who mimic the Nazi salute, even as a joke or an attempt to troll their opponents, trivialize the horror of the Holocaust.”

Seattle folks, here’s a good explainer of the February 11 ballot. Vote yes for social housing—and you get to vote yes TWICE! progressivevotersguide.com/washington/2...

This. Every person needs to be on alert, even those who don’t fear deportation. We can all do our part.

Terrific news for Washington State’s wild salmon and orca whales that depend on them for sustenance. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Spreading disinformation with the intent to manipulate people's minds is not freedom of speech. Holding those who spread disinformation accountable is not censorship.

Always worth remembering.

This didn’t get enough media attention when it happened so I’m posting it again. The Biden’s were not only innocent, they were framed. And the GOP knew it and amplified the lie anyway.

People celebrating Luigi Mangione, the health care CEO assassin, need to understand that vigilante killings are not celebrated or in any way condoned in the United States. We are a civilized country that values the lives of its citizens.
