BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ just INDICTED a congressional candidate (D) with “CONSPIRACY” because she protested. Now she's facing 6-8 YEARS IN PRISON! Kat Abughazaleh, candidate for Illinois’ 9th Congressional district, made headlines when an ICE thug picked her up and threw her to the ground in Chicago

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

RIP to a legend. One of my all-time favorites.

U.S. industrial output rose +0.1% m/m in August, up just +0.9% from a year ago. This came in stronger than an expected m/m decline of -0.1%.

Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and they’re still miserable f*cks. Joy Reid nailed it.

Tim Walz: "I'll tell you what doesn't make people feel safe -- a tank next to Chipotle. It's stupid and it's for the cameras ... where are the 'don't tread on me' people?"

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office. 

Joe Pesci lays it all out in Lessons From “With Honors” (1994)

Reporter: The president threatened to use not just the National Guard but the military. Bowser: I think I speak for all Americans, we don't believe it is legal to use the American military against American citizens on American soil.

Inslee: If you need more energy, the dumbest thing you can do is disallow access to wind, solar, and advanced batteries—three of the most productive ways of producing new energy. And yet, that’s exactly what he’s done.

Mark Peterson’s black-and-white images of ICE agents evoke film noir and the urban-crime photography of the 1930s and ’40s. “If someone is doing everything right, and then they still get detained, it’s a crime scene,” he said.

I’m becoming convinced that the reason they keep making the White House look like Mar-a-Lago is that he’s slowly losing his memory and they keep trying to put him in places that seem familiar.

Start your morning with two minutes of the testimony of Samuel Garcia, an average American who drove 3 hours to speak truth to power to the Texas legislature. Let’s decide that we are all Samuel Garcia. Get in their faces and make them listen. Mr. Garcia is a great American.
