Watch that. And then tell me how we replace Schumer with her

1️⃣ He didn't say that. 2️⃣ He said it, but you misunderstood him. 3️⃣ He said what you understood, but he was just trolling. 4️⃣ He was serious but he's just negotiating, not going to do it. 5️⃣ He's going to do it for grand strategy reasons I've invented. 6️⃣ Look what you liberals made him do.

We now have a full-blown European-American crisis, and for no reason that the president is able to articulate

a cataclysmic day for algebra

This sounds so much more like "domestic violence" than it does like "domestic terrorism."

Montgomery Co, MD’s newly free FLASH bus is a great option to get from Silver Spring Red Line station to the north. Much like PACES’s Pulse busses, which are also great.

I think this is the first iOS update I’ve liked!

"the USPS is a miracle. it's in the constitution. for the price of a single stamp you can send a letter across the country, from Hawaii to Maine. Trump is trying to take that away from you. He's attacking Christmas cards and wedding invitations. It's un-American and it has to stop."

Hey BlueSky users, any podcast suggestions now that @marcmaron.bsky.social is no longer podcasting?

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

I photographed the oldest shopping mall in America, the Historic Cleveland Arcade, decked out for the holidays and this is what I got

Great building in Skokie with an interesting history. And, I used to work in it. www.therecordnorthshore.org/2025/11/19/h...

Note for Democratic politicians: you don't have to start your condemnations of ICE raids with "We all want to catch violent criminals, but..." Just say "These raids have nothing to do with catching criminals and everything to do with terrorizing innocent minority groups."

Trump in a room with a very charismatic person results in like half a day of Trump agreeing with everything that person said, so this has the potential to be very, very funny.

1981: My immigrant father lost an election. He taught me that running for office, giving voters a choice, losing, & trying again are all critical parts of democracy. 1987: He wins, making history as Ontario’s first Muslim legislator. Show up. Build coalitions. Expand the definition of who belongs.

Tonight was the inaugural ride of our new home buyout program. We connect with vendors too scared to be out, and we purchase from them at home. Tonight we bought 250 tamales, divided into 3 teams to deliver all over the city to folks on the street, Love Fridges, and a youth shelter.

This is mutual aid. This is how we keep us safe. ✊🏽

This is going to get spun as a "thermostatic shift" chart, but it should be properly interpreted as a "information environment is broken" chart. In 2024, voters didn't know what Trump would do, and so they shifted towards him based on vibes. Now they are finding out, and they hate it.

I got to meet 2 great candidates to replace State Sen Laura Fine at the candidate forum at Skokie PL this evening. I’ll be proud to vote for either in Nov 2026!

For the sake of posterity I thought I'd do a thread on all the epically stupid things Trump has done in recent days. 1) Let them eat ballroom www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I visited the sites of three places in Chicago where ICE abducted people. Here’s what I found.

Democrats need to seriously consider an impeachment inquiry into now-Judge Emil Bove if/when they take back the House. He led the brazenly corrupt Eric Adams quid pro quo. He facilitated the Tom Homan bribery cover-up. And there’s probably more! He was Trump’s hatchet man at DOJ for months!

An illustration for our times

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot. one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

Picasso, Guernica:

Monarez is playing her weak hand perfectly, and should be a model for institutional resistance for the next four years: 1. Make them fire you 2. Don’t go along to get along 3. Don’t apologize, have confidence in your own integrity and the importance of your role 4. Always escalate the conflict

Hey #BikeChi, I was waiting for a train at 11th St/Museum Campus and saw bicyclists riding the limited access road from McCormick Pl. Anyone know if this was a special event, or always an option? Where to enter?

It’s so odd to me that our environmental laws are more effective than our human rights laws.

When Republicans tell Democrats or progressives, they are being "too extreme," you can tell them to Bove it Up Their Ass.

Comedians can manage a show of solidarity, but the colleagues of the WSJ reporter Trump kicked off the plane will ride Air Force One to Scotland as normal

Exactly: THe stories on what didn't get done bc Noem required her personal signature (in additional to call centers, the rescue teams) aren't stating clearly that one reason Noem is doing this is bc she's $1B over budget bc she has blown it all on kidnapping grannies.

NEW: Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s lawyers seek permission to file an amended complaint in his civil case in Maryland. Among other things, the amended complaint “includes Abrego Garcia's first-hand account of torture and mistreatment at CECOT…”

When your backpack becomes a pannier.

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

This is an absolute betrayal of promises made by Congress to protect the people who protected American soldiers. A betrayal by people who think American greatness is based on half-assed military parades rather than being a credible ally to those that risked their lives for America.

Thank you Grant Park Symphony for a great concert last night. So glad I finally got to hear The Planets live. 💚💚💚

My favorite sign from the No Kings protest

There is no universe in which it is acceptable for a Secretary of DHS to say anything like this. Kristi Noem must resign immediately. Or be impeached.

🚨 Secretary Noem basically said that her agency is now dedicated to forcible regime change…in American cities and states. There 👏🏽 is 👏🏽 a 👏🏽 name 👏🏽 for 👏🏽 this

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

A real life American Hero... not hiding behind a mask. I bet soon we will know his name. We salute you brother for your civil courage and the eloquence.

@joeschwarten.bsky.social Hi Joe! Does Cleveland have a bike share? Lime, Bird, Veo and Hope apps are not showing any bikes. I’ll be there 7/4 weekend & was hoping to do some exploring on bike. Thanks!

Hey Chicagoans and suburban allies…. If you were making the Chicago version of this, where would you put the dip bowl? Norridge/HH? Untethered O’Hare? Lake Calumet?
