Walking away with $20 billion of US taxpayer money so Scott Bessent’s Wall Street cronies don’t lose their investments in Argentina.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

It was an honor to join Sunday services at the Historic Union Baptist Church in Harlem this morning. My thanks to Reverend Brian D. Scott for the conversation and welcome.

He’s been in the U.S. for two decades with no criminal history, and his 5-year-old som has brain cancer. ICE is intent on deporting him. www.inquirer.com/news/ice-rai...

An important piece from @walterolson.bsky.social at @cato.org on Trump’s extortionary compact for US colleges and universities.

pete hegseth announces new department of war policy: "no more friggin woke BULL crap ok? we gotta get serious about WINNING. and that's why it's vital to call it the KILLITARY. anyone who says military is FIRED. and gay. starting NOW. so that one didn't count"

It's pretty simple to find the hole in their contention. It's all a #PedoProtector shit. #ReleaseTheFiles

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

Religious leaders here are not mincing words. They have repeatedly used the word "evil." "Detention and deportation are acts that wound the body of Christ, and deny the dignity of God's people."

Many historians of Rome identify Roman generals becoming the personal sources of payment for their armies as a key step in the downfall of the Republic, since it personalized military authority and freed armies to fight for their immediate leader, who paid them, instead of for the Republic

So to summarize: - There is a pattern where Vought makes the RIFs too wide, apparently to flood the zone with sh*t and see who will draw protests. - They restore some people after outrage and work by us. - But we are still left with many who remain fired at the end.

It’s no wonder that Trump has such a twisted view of war and sacrifice. And the utility of bribes.

I found thousands of Antifa members at Arlington Cemetery.

I'm sitting here thinking about having a 15 daughter being chased down and abducted by masked men while the local police watch and let them carry her away to god-knows where w/zero accountability we have to understand that girls are in severe danger of sexual violence from anonymous ICE goons

You know what I consider both evil and murder? The orange felon getting his updated covid vaccines whilst he, his deranged MAGA chaos agent RFK Jr and fascist republicans try to prevent the public from getting and taking those same protections.

Except I think it’s the opposite.

Per CDC source: At internal leadership meeting this afternoon, it was shared that 1,257 people were RIF'd at CDC. Number may not be final. Apparently, chief of staff was unaware that RIFs were going to occur so not clear who is making decisions. (Short 🧵)

ONLY ONE MAN INCITED AN INSURRECTION IN THE USA!!!! 🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS!!! I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared.

open.substack.com/pub/chrished... So sad, but so true. 😥

Republicans are scared AF about #NoKings Day -- calling it a "Hate America Rally" a bunch of "radical left terrorists" lol So, let's be sure we show the communities we gather in that WE LOVE AMERICA and that's why we are taking it to the streets Bring flags 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 @indivisible.org

When Russell Vought pushes something into the news on Friday night of a long weekend, is that a sign of strength — of a battle for public opinion he thinks he can win?

Congratulations to new Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado for her courageous struggle to bring democracy to Venezuela.

We have (so many) questions. Is this part of a quid pro quo? Will the Qataris have their own facilities and security inside one of our bases? This needs some VERY serious oversight, if Republicans in Congress feel like doing their jobs at any point.

Both Donald Trump and his Slovene-born escort spent years calling for Obama’s birth certificate. I am calling for Melania Trump’s legal immigration papers: How did she get an “Einstein” visa for extraordinary abilities despite her blatant lie under oath about her college degrees?

Buy Nothing & Facebook Marketplace local sellers are a good first stop bc reduce comes before reuse comes before recycle for a reason but if you have to buy new here’s an option that isn’t megacorp: www.spooktacularcreations.com/collections/...

Wrote about why it *really* feels like Stephen Miller's nuclear-level on-air gaffe should be getting more attention. badfaithtimes.com/the-stephen-...

I’m sure the “America First” crowd loves this.

Go figure.

RFK Jr did his own research folks.

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it. Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device. The cruelty is endless. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

There really are Americans who believe that public elementary schools were performing unauthorized sex change operations on kids during the school day. Q: Could any nation be comprised of people that stupid? A: No nation with citizens that stupid can survive. We’re doomed.
