ICE now has a budget bigger than most militaries around the world and has increased spending on weapons. It's also engaging in a race to recruit 10,000 new agents who will eventually be out in American streets. Some will be vetted, but how many unqualified recruits will fall through the cracks?

ICE will reportedly hire contractors to surveil social media platforms 24/7 to target people for deportations. The information would then be funneled into an existing ICE database built by Palantir (founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel). "The party of small government,” folks.

Pointing this out is now a deportable offense though.

“Hey everyone, remember when I and a bunch of other GOP senators were involved in that seditious conspiracy to overthrow an election? Anyway, I’m upset that anyone looked more into that.”

Einsteins theory has been proven.

Jeff Bezos was worth $194 billion at the end of 2024. He’s currently worth $231.5 billion as of today. It would take him just 17 days to see his net worth increase by $2.5 billion. https://www.reuters.com/world/amazon-pay-25-billion-settle-prime-deception-allegations-2025-09-25/

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move. 1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year. Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Jon reflects on the corrupting influence of turning breaking news into a driver of engagement.

Are you okay with this, GOP? Wait, don’t answer that.

After enacting the largest SNAP cuts in history, Trump is now scrapping the federal government's annual report on hunger in America. The utter cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, our healthcare, and the information we receive. Many are now currying favor with Trump to avoid accountability and maintain their power. This is what oligarchy looks like.

Six days ago, the Trump administration strong-armed ABC and Disney into suspending Jimmy Kimmel. Thousands of Americans spoke out to protest this blatant attack on free speech, and now Kimmel will return to television tomorrow. Never doubt the power of collective action.

This you, JD?

Remember: The GOP’s nonsensical culture wars are meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder. [Cartoon by Jace Avery]

This is beyond appalling.

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives. He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Powerful new Banksy mural on the Royal Courts of Justice building shows a judge hitting a protester lying on the ground with his gavel, with blood splattering the placard.

Well said.

I’ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the life’s work of so many American scientists. He shouldn’t be in this job.

The brain worm made him do it!

Big Oil donates to his campaign...Trump hands out tax breaks and guts clean energy funding. Fraudsters donate to his Super PAC...Trump hands out pardons. Airlines donate to his inaugural fund...Trump cancels a rule requiring them to refund passengers. Everything is for sale.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

Any Senators here? I’m a biomedical scientist with immunology, cancer, infectious disease expertise. RFK Jr lied to you in his confirmation hearings. Repeatedly. Provably. He’s lied to EVERYONE for 30+ years. Repeatedly. Provably. He WILL lie today. Repeatedly. Provably. 1/

First Bernie Sanders. Then the CDC directors. Now, more than 1,000 current and former HHS staffers are demanding he step down.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?
