Somehow Schumer has managed to get the Republicans to the edge of a field of rakes, pointed out how to avoid it, and their plan is to confidently walk right into the middle of the field.

Ellis: Federal agents described a number of protestors as "professional agitators" based on their use of whistles, in part. "Describing neighborhood moms and rapid response groups as professional agitators shows just how out of touch these agents are and how incredible their statements are."

Does the marketing team know what happened in 1929? Because this could be the greatest corporate social commentary if they did.

Ohhh, what’s that you say? RTO shit the bed?

7M people show up to protest in No Kings Day and pollsters didn’t see it coming. 🙄

I've seen this go by a few times on TikTok now and I have to say, I love this idea. We need a way to convince people to keep running even if they don't win, maybe building the loss into it as a troll move is the secret.

this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

The R agenda keeps meeting reality slap in the face. Way to cancel all the energy projects that would help support this electricity surge.

No.

Has Mike Johnson’s hair been that gray all year?

I wonder why Latino voters have soured on Trump-aligned candidates. 🤔

Really pissed that Meta spoiled the Bake Off finale for me because of their shitty new algorithm changes.

It’s extremely on brand for here that I cannot tell what the heck is going on in elections by scrolling.

Teen Vogue has had more guts to dissect and expose the truth when so many veteran media outlets have bent their knees to a criminal despot and his regime and this news is absolutely appalling and unacceptable

Jesus, I wish. 🙄

“My tax dollars are paying for their steak!” Yeah, well, my tax dollars are paying for ICE to threaten and abduct my neighbors. Steak sounds better.

Communities all over the US are seeing local social media posts, local news articles (such as may exist) and local mutual aid organizing. I know RW media has a hegemonic hold but it’s gonna be hard to rebut the widespread neighbor to neighbor messaging that definitely makes Rs the bad guys, dude.

Okay it’s gotta be a massive refusal to pay federal taxes right? That’s what’s gotta give.

The headline here is about affordable housing ??????!!!!!

Totally horrible risk-benefit calculation

"You see we're hurting people on purpose because we think Americans won't know it's us that are hurting them. When do we go on the air?"

Seems perfectly in line to me 🤷🏼‍♀️

those of you who are afraid of aging, please understand that one of the huge blessings of middle age is arriving at this exact station

Maybe worth revisiting this @npr story on the US nuclear weapons testing facility (from Jan 2025), for reasons. www.npr.org/2025/01/29/n...

Entirely self-inflicted

It pains me that we’re paying millions to send this guy on a speaking tour. He could be nonsensical inside the US border.

The quality of the posters I follow on here is 🔝 but the majority of the comments are 😒

Josh Hawley was pro Jan 6 and this is just a weird thing (which won’t pass) that he can point to when his constituents get mad about not being able to eat.

They are trying so hard to convince you that the party in control of the White House and both chambers of Congress isn’t to blame for what’s coming.

A friend recently told me that they didn’t think ICE would deploy tear gas in well to do neighborhoods with a high density of white people. I understood their thinking, but disagreed. Today, they gassed Lakeview. Nothing is off limits to these people.

ordinary americans are filming ice agents and trying to save their neighbors. for all the hemming and hawing during 2024 about how democracy was an elite concern, the elites gave up far more quickly than average people.

The IG page @littlevillagelocal posted a few videos and a photo of what happened in the nhood today. Their caption was so moving! It spoke to ICE attempting to enter doors throughout the nhood but people and businesses resisting and locking their doors. La Villita Se Defiende.

Watching the demolition of the East Wing thinking about the woman in the Trump t-shirt trolling the No Kings attendees saying “I’M free, you’re the one who’s in prison.” I guess she was right. They are free to do whatever the hell they want.

If being against a guy with a Nazi tattoo makes me a purist I guess I'm an anti-Nazi purist. If you think that makes me an anti-Nazi single issue voter, you're wrong, but also it's a pretty good single issue. There is more than a year. Go get another real progressive who doesn't have a Nazi tattoo.

If you are on ICE watch in the Rogers Park vicinity please have a buddy and exercise extreme caution. ICE has assaulted verifiers today and arrested at least one of our people. If you are vulnerable to ICE in this area, I recommend staying inside if possible.

Omg I just checked and people are already using to it raise funds for the nonprofit I run (without our knowledge!)

What’s the over under on asbestos and lead paint exposure?

Never T̶a̶l̶k̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶p̶o̶l̶i̶c̶e̶ text a reporter about your flimsy case on the record

What’s the point of blocking the government accounts if you’re just gonna flood Truth Social *literal* shitposts in the feed?

Counter rally in my county had a big sign reading Jesus is my King and like, it’s not Jesus we have an issue with? 🤷🏼‍♀️ Weird vibes today.

Meringue week does not sound promising.

the difference between a wonderful audiobook performance by a gifted voice actor and this "digital voice" horseshit masquerading as legit audiobooks makes me steaming mad. good narration is important and deserves to be paid for!!!!!!

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings. These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate. Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

I'm loving how much of my timeline rn is people simultaneously saying "okay I know we like to fuck around here but for real everybody just block the white house"

Keys to the office? Check! ✅ Sworn in as Congresswoman? Not quite 🙅🏻‍♂️

Q for Sliwa: you were on this stage four years ago running for mayor. You lost. What have you learned A: well four years ago I said Adams was a corrupt piece of shit and uh I feel pretty vindicated. Also my wife has a hotline for no kill shelters

Mike, most of the signs at our rally site just want you to spend Congressionally-approved monies on stuff that makes our lives better, like National Parks and Social Security.

I flew last month and this lady’s face was on the TV posted in the security line. The TV was on pause. So I bet more airports than the ones listed are not showing this video.

My latest is the story of how my community has rallied to protect and defend our neighbors in recent days, as ICE has targeted the Rogers Park neighborhood in Chicago. "This is not a story about a moment of victory, but a moment of being reminded of our power."

I had no idea he was still broadcasting! A formative radio experience of my youth. Thanks for your service.
