this is a very very big story because of the apparently totally fake story ICE/DHS put out about what happened.

The "tough on crime" party sure has defunded the police on everything but immigration: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

Don’t worry, America, the @nytimes.com daily podcast assures us that Russ Vought is just a “hard-working nerd” that named his cute dog Milton.

Once upon a time, if a president head lied this brazenly, it would be considered a disgrace by both political parties

The President of United States exhorting cadets from one of the branches of the Armed Forces to eliminate one of our two national parties.

The worst people have been empowered to do whatever the fuck they want.

Jesus. You think it can’t get any worse, then you read these stories. US citizens and legal residents illegally arrested and held for days. **Native Americans** getting detained and held for days because ICE agents are too stupid/racist to know about tribal IDs.

The Conservative Men Who Are Scared of Cities have escalated to gassing civilians for being rude to them.

Genuinely incredible how unprofessional these guys are. One dude yelling in your face and you immediately assault them on camera?

the usual story. rich guy wants to punish universities for not clamping down on pro-palestinian protests and for doing too much to recruit minorities. at base these guys want the top tier of american universities to become, once more, safe-spaces for their dunderheaded failsons

Zodiac killer murders again, challenging legal bounds

Is everyone appreciating how utterly sick this is

It’s wild that “selling child size coffins” and “being a modern day slave catcher” are the only two growth industries in America rn

I’m told ICE attacked us—despite us being off the street, courtesy of the state police—to create a spectacle because Kristi Noem was present today. Here’s some footage of her and her team on the roof of Broadview. Everything is content creation to these fascists.

Trump: we will do project 2025 Harris: he will do project 2025 Public: oh that’s bad Trump: I’m not gonna do it have never heard of it Harris: he’s still gonna do it Media: no one can predict the future 77 pinocchios

"CBS News editor in chief Bari Weiss" is the exact same deal as "Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth"

Between this, the epstein list, obsession with trans kids playing sports, & neverending conspiracy theories about what's going on in schoolsin general, you realize that the primary concern of the Republican party and its supporters is their deep desire to abuse children

The open use of federal funds as a blunt force object to get universities, cities, and other entities in line is criminal. Those are tax payer dollars! And so much capitulation! Dbjdonfonifbinrondondonodnonfonfoninfonfin

1. The $20 billion taxpayer-funded rescue package for Argentina, announced last week by the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, delivers an enormous windfall to hedge fund billionaire Rob Citrone. Citrone has a longstanding personal and professional relationship with Bessent.

We are no longer at a “tipping point” or “an inflection point.” We are no longer “sliding” toward autocracy. Donald Trump no longer “aspires” to be an autocrat. Last week, Trump went full-bore authoritarian. The United States currently is not a functional democracy. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

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.

2 wks from TONITE Santa Fe!

At this point, any Democrat who votes to keep this government open without extracting very serious concessions — RFK’s resignation, ICE rollback, Epstein Files release, etc — will absolutely face a primary challenger who will set fundraising records.

Kennedy contributed more towards the current state of the nation than 99.9999% of the population. This is the America he worked for decades to create.

A reminder -- not that you need one -- of which party's electeds are routinely calling for political violence. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It’s hard to convey the insanity of a thirty-something White House staffer getting an interim US Attorney appointment and marching into the grand jury room alone four days later to indict the former Deputy Attorney General and Director of the FBI

A North Carolina GOP operative who tried to limit the state’s crucial early voting period has been named to a key post helping to run the state’s elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

What happened at SCOTUS today? The case over $4 billion in foreign aid led to an unsigned Friday SCOTUS order that, in effect, means Trump can overturn certain laws — and that preventing him from doing so is a "harm" for which SCOTUS can grant him relief. Here's my report at Law Dork:

The official dc press line on ken starr was maybe he was a bit overzealous but that was just because he was so dedicated to truth and justice, a man too good for this fallen world

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

"experts say" www.cnn.com/2025/08/11/b...

When Joint Terrorism Task Forces were first set up, people predicted they could eventually be used by an authoritarian government to go after political enemies. And now they are.

Listen, he is nuts on so many levels and everybody knows it including the entire GOP leadership and what is left of non cooked military brass and people just need to pressure them in every front to say so.
