It's actually perfect to make wingnut Trump trash Idahoans eat this shit.

nothing says america first like putting qatari fighter jets in the rocky mountains

Yep, boy howdy, and absolutely. I’m not a civic tech person, but I know some good ones — @erie.bsky.social, @merici.bsky.social, @waldo.net. A Democratic Party serious about rebuilding state capacity would give folks like them the latitude to supplant contractors with internal tech.

Right response. Mills and any others must attack Collins the same, no praising her as Mills did before.

not only that, but when Dems do get organized and pay creators who are pushing aligned content, all of a sudden it becomes an attack line against them. meanwhile Russia literally pays conservative commentators and they are cool with it

I was on the ground today in Broadview with Senator Durbin to conduct Congressional oversight on ICE’s processing facility.

As elected officials, we have a duty to ensure transparency within federal facilities. What is ICE hiding? Kristi Noem, what are you hiding?

Republicans are a violent terrorist cult.

Guy does a 180 in 10 seconds from saying he's a libertarian for limited government to calling for banning pride parades

i saw people saying '6 7' and didn't get the reference so i searched for it on here and the first thing i saw was a picture of two buff furry wolfmen jacking off into a urinal. good night

Good!

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) says he has been denied 4 times to see what is going on inside the Broadview, IL ICE facility: "Something's going on in there that they don't want us to see. I don't know what it is, but all Americans should be asking the same question."

Translation: “C’mon! Make a deal with us so we can laugh when we fuck you over!”

🧵: The world’s extremely poor are also often extremely remote, with limited access to healthcare & health education. In many developing countries, the government—often with the help of the UN and, until this year, USAID—maintains health posts that bring these services to people living off the grid.

CHICAGO — WGN News editor/producer Debbie Brockman grabbed by Trump’s ICE goons.. who then intentionally ram a bystander’s car as they peel away. More: www.fox32chicago.com/news/wgn-new...

Republicans are fucking morons.

This shit is crazy because they're just straight up on video hitting a car that was blocked in the street. The extent as to which DHS now just brazenly puts out lies is utterly obscene.

News from DeSantisstan: criticize me, and I'll send armed police to threaten you. It's the Florida GOP way. www.jacksonville.com/story/news/l...

Mamdani: I run against a disgraced former governor who, in this moment, has chosen to issue a statement in which he cannot even say the name Tish James, nor the name Donald Trump. If you cannot say Trump’s name today—how will you stand up to him tomorrow?

This is what ice is doing

Anything Trump purports to build permanently will be taken down brick by brick, including his asinine White House convention center.

If anyone has a case for being thrown out of NATO, it’s the member that has actually threatened to violate the territorial sovereignty of two of its fellow member-states… 😬

This memory popped up in my mentions from 2016. You warned us.

That's wild. If you know anything about ICE agents, looking scared, changing your demeanor, etc are eminently reasonable reactions

House Speaker Mike Johnson is calling the October 18 protest the Hate America Rally because he's afraid to call it by its real name, the Release the Epstein Files Rally.

I mean, I am not sure that the Supreme Court cares about Congressional intent any longer, but the chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee saying she does not want layoffs seems like something that might come up in a court case about the legality of the layoffs.

UNREAL

We’re doing what?!

Chekhov's Reassignments

Republicans are a violent terrorist cult.

GOP (synonymous with MAGA now) "patriotism" is, yes, narcissism, and more specifically a delusion of grandeur that is necessarily self-imploding at some point.

Pepe is defeated.

Hey @lawfaremedia.org now that this domestic propaganda has stepped into the national security space and your area of coverage, can we get an article or a pod about how the Hatch Act (maybe even the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act?) applies here?

Corruption Watch

Damn, The Las Vegas Sun newspaper, @lasvegassun.bsky.social, is calling it like it is:

Fuck Around And Find Out.

There's already enough publicly-disclosed information on her real estate arrangements to establish she's innocent of any charges, and Trump et al. are going to humiliate themselves.

the administration is laser-focused on making sure Americans don't get clean energy, so Saudi Arabia (Trump's paymaster) has someone to sell their oil to in 10 years when the rest of the world has moved on to solar+batteries

No money flowing to USAID and hardly any to PEPFAR despite their duly enacted funding; well north of twenty billion dollars being deployed for other weird hair autocrats. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

He was definitely hired *because* he's this kind of person, not in spite of it.

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show. She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms. (Published June)

Actually being broadcast. First the Chicago cyclist and now the Portland inflatables. Who knew "Yakety Sax" would become our freedom anthem

It's even worse than this. The subhed will leave the casual reader with the vague impression that he actually has a legitimate claim to it.

Destroyed homes after Russia’s attack on Zaporizhzhia tonight. They murdered a 7-year-old boy here.
