The dog was bamboozled

This is the best movie I've seen this year so far. Should receive an academy award for original script.

"The fact that the nomination got this far illustrates how much antisemitic and hateful rhetoric has been normalized, explained away or rewarded by Republicans in power," @katierogersnyt.bsky.social writes of the Ingrassia case. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/u...

From top to bottom this regime is earning its own especially hot place in hell

Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias has issued a warning about license plate tampering and has launched a reporting hotline to address the issue.

Can the media go talk to Esper again? It feels like having his statements back in the news would be informative of our National Guard discussion going on right now. www.cnn.com/2022/05/02/p...

There are so many fake christian pedophiles an entire account can be set up to post these stories every day.

The law doesn't state that only the Speaker of the House can swear in Representative Elects. Get a federal judge to swear Grijalva in and see if Johnson sues to keep her from signing the Epstein petition or taking her office. Put their opposition on record.

this is how you do it, baby www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/d...

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

“.. they are just grabbing people, putting them in cuffs,” said Kaden Cummings, 23, who witnessed the arrests. “Nobody’s identifying themselves .. There’s no due process .. It’s just straight to the back of a van if you’re African on Canal.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/n...

How many Republicans objected to a Trump nominee with an acknowledged "Nazi streak"? Four (4).

Rep Robert Garcia just dropped a bombshell 🔥 The House Oversight Committee is forming a joint investigative unit with the Senate to track and expose every single act of ICE misconduct. Accountability is coming. No more hiding behind badges. No more abuse without consequence.

Destruction of the White House East Wing began today. Here it is in better times with better residents.

A lot of wealthy and powerful people helped Epstein fund his sex trafficking operation. The American people deserve to know who they are. Secretary Bessent, like his boss, is covering it up. I’m going to keep following the money. Stay tuned.

It’s true.

UPDATE: COLOMBIA’s President says 🇺🇸 government (Trump) “committed murder” and bombed a fisherman with no ties to drugs “The boat was adrift and had its distress signal up due to an engine failure”

Well, you can finally cross “I’ve seen a handcuffed, inflatable penis” off your bucket list

Hero’s of the day - In a small town of Beckley, WV, Kendra Sullivan staged a one-woman No Kings protest. She was confronted, had the police called on her, but stood her ground. She was physically threatened. Police came more than once and protected her right to protest. This is how we do it.

That‘s definitely antifa

Approximately 10,000 people marched to the Capitol on January 6th. That means very likely *your city alone* has more people rallying to defend democracy today than the entire authoritarian faction was able to muster to destroy it. Don’t ever let them make you believe you’re in the minority.

When I was 19, I hosted a jazz show on the college radio station. One night, after a concert, I nervously asked the visiting musician to record an on-air promo: “You’re listening to The Jazz Show, with Carl Q., etc”. He could not have been more gracious. Wynton Marsalis, born today in 1961. 🐐

This is what this “Antifa” bullshit is all about: It’s about coming for you and anyone who would stand up to the authoritarians.

Greetings from #NoKings NEW YORK CITY!!!

Wow ♥️

Check out the new No Kings feed 👇 #NoKings

A Chicago-style No Kings Day. #NoKings

Check out this mashup.

So no terrorism then?

Honestly, I promise however much it feels like trolling them back is “resistance” it only feeds the beast by boosting their visibility and giving them a way to target users. Smash that block button and give yourself a treat— you deserve it.

In case you’re wondering, yes: there are already moderation lists for blocking people who follow regime accounts in dev right now as well.

Here’s a block list for anyone who needs it: bsky.app/profile/did:...

Here is a block list for them bsky.app/profile/best...

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings. These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate. Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

"Cook County’s top judge signed an order barring ICE from arresting people at court." "...bars the civil arrest of any “party, witness, or potential witness” while going to court proceedings. It includes arrests inside courthouses and in parking lots, surrounding sidewalks and entryways." #USpol

BREAKING: Immigration officers in the Chicago area will be required to wear body cameras after the use of tear gas and other actions against protesters, a judge rules.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery. @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

John Oliver is good at his job youtu.be/gieTx_P6INQ?...

It would be good to know how many military orders Stephen Miller has forged.

The more we use this technology, the more we necessarily turn over not only our data and our privacy but the basic things we need to survive. Meanwhile, reality is totally reshaped by LLMs as increasingly authoritarian media is pumped out as training data. Nothing could be more useful to them.

Our friend and neighbor—and Ohio’s next governor—got to meet Walter and Franklin today. Proud to stand with you, Amy Acton.

Farm bankruptcies are back in the news, so it's time to pull this chart out again. Hey look they kept rising during Trump's first term. Then they went way down under Biden. Now they're up again? So weird. Thanks Farm Bureau for the graphic

A few minutes ago in the House: - Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week - House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week

Every single Democrat in Congress should’ve already had a post up by now about the Trump admin approving a Qatari air base inside the US.

26. She did the unforgivable: refused to accept the lies Stephen Miller tells himself, about himself, and she deepened that wound by daring to enjoy herself while doing it. She not only hurt him, emotionally and psychically, but she reminded him of the misery he endures daily.

Qatar gave Trump the luxury 747 that he wanted and now we are LETTING THEM BUILD A MILITARY BASE ON US SOIL

Every targeted institution (my own very much included) should cut and paste this letter onto their letterhead.
