Illinois passed the Illinois Bivens Act, which allows folks to sue ICE officers who violate their rights. “damages can increase based on various factors … including the use of facial coverings, crowd control measures like tear gas, vehicles with a non-Illinois license plate or no license plate…”

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Measles was declared eliminated in the United States in 2000. RFK Jr. must resign.

Other outlets are now reporting. First to report tonight was Anna Giaritelli at the Washington Examiner, whose story if anything missed how big the purge was. It's not just five cities; ICE Field Office Directors are being fired in at least a dozen cities, and will be replaced by CBP people instead.

The NY Times and WaPo may be lost causes but holy shite look at PEOPLE out here absolutely killing it with 100% unvarnished truths 🌟

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

there it is. you had to suspect one of the reasons the Trump admin didn't want to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home was they didn't want him telling people what they put him through and what it's like at CECOT reposting with alt text and linking to the filing storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Every Dem must stay focused on this Wall Street Journal snippet as 2026 approaches: “GOP legislative reforms will have no chance if Democrats take the House in 2026. If they also take the Senate, forget about confirming another Supreme Court nominee. The Trump Presidency will be dead in the water.”

"July 1st." I've had complicated feelings about this comic this year. We've seen so much quiet quitting of rainbow capitalism--a canary in the coal mine. I started wondering if I was naive to not think of when I drew this as "the good times."

I know I'm not the first person or even the millionth person to point this out; it's not even the first time *I* have said it, but this is what actual First Amendment violations look like and the fact that none of the supposed free speech warriors are saying anything about it tells us everything.

So to recap: Trump violated the War Powers Resolution, failed in his mission, lied and said he succeeded, made up a cease-fire between two countries in his head, then got mad and cursed when he found out it didn't exist.

Let's review: 1. Iran was not building a nuclear weapon 2. US intel said that if the US bombed Iran, it might push Iran to build a nuke 4. Trump bombed Iran anyway 5. Trump claimed the bombs "obliterated" Iran's nuclear facilities 6. Iran's program was set back only a few months, US intel says

The most important part of republican fascism is the demand you must be nice to them.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

at least he didn't do something truly reckless like try to forgive student loans

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

BREAKING: A federal judge ruled all transgender and intersex people can obtain passports that align with their gender identity while the case against President Trump's executive order proceeds. While this is good news, we will continue fighting until this executive order is blocked permanently.

Start my new job on Monday! I’ve had a lot of big traumatic changes this year already, I hope the rest of my 2025 is gentler.

Incredible video from deep red Iredell County (Mooresville), NC -- just north of Charlotte. To find #TeslaTakedown protesters in the heavily conservative Lake Norman suburbs is surprising, and encouraging. #ncpol

Really interesting article, this part stuck out particularly well to me:

Dog bottle. :D Salt fired, with an orange flashing slip and amber celadon on brown stoneware. I love my dog bottle.

The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

Now might be a great time to support local and independent media.

Hopeful coaster sets. 👀

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

maybe the worm in his brain will come back to life and kill him

vaccines are truly one of the greatest achievements in all of human history. makes me legitimately very sad for all the people who will be needlessly harmed.

Hey graphic design people, do we even have physical portfolio books for interviews anymore or is it just digital?

This is fantastic. It’s a small win, but it’s a win.

If you’re cis & you want trans folks to know they’re valid and cared for, here’s a tip: Don’t say it to a trans person. Go talk to a cis person. Talk to your dad. Your coworker. Your friends. Ask if they know whats going on. Ask if they have uncertainties when it comes to the ~trans issue.~

Can we get a couple Warios in here, please.
