Trump is really going hard on the theory that the intelligence community hid crucial information from him in his last term. This really feels like a pretext for purging the IC (which Bill Pulte is already doing)

To every New Yorker: this rule is not yet in effect. The earliest it could take effect is Sept. 18, 2026. New York City will use every tool at our disposal to fight this attack on immigrant families and the communities that make our city the greatest on earth.

Trump is trying to do a reichstag fire just by giving a speech saying “hey guys china tried to burn down the reichstag years ago”

Oh. So they’re gonna start spewing a bunch of election interference bs to cover their actual election interference.

Can’t believe they bumped Best Medicine for this.

Watch the Wildfire Smoke Ooze Across North America From Space (gift link to celebrate me getting "ooze" in a headline) www.nytimes.com/2026/07/16/w...

Smoke from wildfires raging in Canada choked much of the northeastern U.S. and the Upper Midwest on Thursday, darkening skies and making it unhealthy, or even hazardous, for millions of people to breathe.

A few weeks ago I shared my view that prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket should be made illegal. Today it was announced that Kalshi is now taking bets on FDA drug approvals and clinical trial outcomes. These markets are metastasizing and nothing good can come of it.

Sometimes 90s sci-fi just nails it.

Democrats need to do this because it's what's happening. Trump officials are not only behaving outside the law, they're behaving as if they'll never be subject to the law. Dems must introduce friction to slow them down: Start announcing that blanket pardons for uncharged crimes will not be honored.

Making pardons the centerpiece of the 2028 election focuses everything together on one big, actionable issue that includes corruption and abuse of power.

The United States intensified its strikes targeting Iran early Thursday, hitting targets further north as American forces also fired into a ship it accused of trying to break its naval blockade on the Islamic Republic.

“The American Catholic Right answers to two authorities & neither…is Pope Leo… One is…Trump, whose agenda it takes up as its own.

ICE has killed another person, this time by depriving him of life-sustaining medication for a known medical condition. Jesus Manuel Arenas-Silva was detained on Thursday. He was dead by Monday. Per @detentionwatchnetwork.org:

Welp, looks like it’s going to happen this year.

New: the highly controversial AI music generator Suno was hacked. The hacker sent us Suno source code; it shows the company scraped YouTube Music, Deezer, and Genius. In all, Suno scraped *decades* worth of music from the internet. Obviously didn't pay artists www.404media.co/hack-reveals...

This morning, I was notified of another death in ICE custody. This is the 53th death on ICE’s watch during Trump’s second term. We must continue to fight for accountability for everyone who has lost a loved one. And it’s time to end the use of all for-profit detention centers.

Realized this morning with news radio in the background that “ICE” now scans as “ISIS” as the back of my mind as scholastic terror group. News reports of regional activity are the new “non specific threat/chatter”.

Security camera footage obtained from local businesses showed individuals who are believed to be U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers surrounding a car and pulling the driver onto the street, in events connected to the fatal shooting of a man in a coastal town in Maine on July 13.

After a cost of more than $1 billion, the Everglades concentration camp has been removed from the airstrip where it once stood.

As it's being reported now that ICE has killed yet another person, I feel that it is important to bring up the fact that ICE has, as of this month, begun to cosplay as the media/press while conducting operations on the east coast. It is likely that this is happening elsewhere, too.

is it good that Republican posts sound like they're out of the Spanish Civil War micrographs I read

Francoism.

Ossoff: "We understand the president may be threatening to declare sitting senators illegitimate. If that's the course of action he pursues, he's calling GA voters illegitimate...he was humiliated as a committed lifelong racist that it was Black voters in Georgia who were instrumental in his defeat"

BREAKING: Senate Democrats blocked a $1.15 trillion Pentagon policy bill, as the sprawling legislation became a casualty in the months-long fight to rein in Trump on Iran.

This is I believe the third incident where ICE has gone to arrest people, they flee, and someone is hit by a car or other vehicle and dies. In this case, ICE officers went to question some people at a gas station, they panicked, and one of them ran into the road and was hit by a truck.
