Lets have a Referendum. Rexit.

I'll be honest, this made me feel warm inside. 🥲

Hegseth doesn't dispute the existence of a memo planning for the establishment of a "National Guard response force that's gonna be trained in crowd control and civil unrest and deployed in all 50 states by April 2026."

I think the ballroom story is gonna mushroom into a much much much much bigger thing. I see the visceral reaction people have towards the videos.

NBC News finds that: -- ICE has shortened its training from 13 weeks to six. -- Nearly half of recruits couldn’t pass an open-book written exam. -- Recruits "are supposed to attest" they can pass the physical-fitness test, which requires them to run ... 6 mph. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

The day after the Chinatown raid, New York AG Tish James launches an online portal for the public to submit photos and videos of ICE activity. "We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law," she writes. Portal ag.ny.gov/federal-acti...

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

NEWS: Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes and Rep.-Elect Adelita Grijalva have SUED the U.S. House of Representatives in federal court in Washington, D.C. over Speaker Mike Johnson’s refusal to swear in Grijalva. Grijalva would be the 218th vote for the Epstein Files discharge petition.

The cackle I just cacked. #ReleaseTheFiles #EpsteinFiles

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.   During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

Shubh Deepavali! Wishing everyone a very happy Diwali. Across our city, families are lighting diyas and celebrating the triumph of light over darkness and hope over despair. New York shines brighter tonight because of the people who bring their light and traditions home.

Oh nooooo, Lindsey Halligan, this is not how any of this works (15 screens into a Signal exchange) www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

This is who Mike Johnson and his party are. And they’ve made that fact crystal clear.

Mike Johnson on Adelita Grijalva, who he refuses to swear in: "Instead of doing TikTok videos, she should be serving her constituents."

Not being even vaguely sarcastic: At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

ultimately, zohran mamdani is a reminder that politicians can be younger than 80 years old

The full disclosure of the Epstein files is coming and they are getting ahead of the news. Watch this space. Prince Andrew gives up royal titles including Duke of York after 'discussion with King' - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cv...

Hey @nytimes.com, did you change your headline, and change "Islamophobic attacks" on Mamdani to just "attacks," because Elise Stefanik and the GOP bullied you into it? Really? Why are they no longer Islamophobic attacks, as your headline originally and correctly stated?

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

I was a kid once. A was even a young boy. I never called anyone f***** or n*****. I never joked about gassing Jews, or said that I loved Hitler. I never called Black people monkeys or wished death on minorities. I feel like JD Vance is telling on himself, and anyone defending it is too.

It’s deeply encouraging to see footage of hostages reuniting with their families and to see Israeli forces withdrawing from Gaza. There are obviously many more steps to achieving a lasting peace but today’s developments should give us all a profound sense of hope.

Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century “woke” ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison. Below, are the accounts of Bartlomé de las Casas.

More of this, please.

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time. VANCE: No, George, I sai-- STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square. Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files. Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

ICE getting tailed like it’s a heist movie. Chicago is turning the tables.

Greta Thunberg has just been released and she is back on the warpath, exactly like our leaders should be. Israel will never silence her or the billions who oppose them.

Israel on Monday deported Greta Thunberg and another 170 activists after taking members of the aid flotilla into custody last week. Mandla Mandela, Nelson Mandela's grandson, who joined the flotilla last week has yet to be released. Of 479 detained, 341 have been deported www.bbc.com/news/article...

The apartments acted alone, pulling the adults and children out of them without anyone’s else’s participation

Donald Trump shut down the government because he doesn't want you to have healthcare. But this isn’t just on him. Democrats MUST use their leverage to protect our rights, but it can’t end there. Schumer and Jeffries can’t just go on TV or write letters, they need clear demands. We need action now.

how dare the flotilla remind us of our sins on Yom Kippur

deranged Hatch Act violation on display here's hud.gov

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband. Today they attacked two journalists. We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

It is really funny that Jimmy Kimmel Live showed more moral fortitude and adherence to a system of values than Columbia University

ICE has erected a gate to keep protesters out. They are blocking a public street, despite the Broadview Fire Department ordering ICE to tear it down. Join us at 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM. Tell Broadview to tear this fence down.

What the fuck?

Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them. - Assata Shakur Pic of the day #photography

ILLINOIS!!! Show up and show out at the Broadview ICE facility tomorrow morning. Join us in peacefully protesting for our neighbors. The pressure is mounting — let’s get this inhumane facility shut down. 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

I don’t think I’ve ever loved anything as much as ICE loves violently attacking women.

Boycotts work. Disney says 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' will return to ABC on Tuesday www.cnbc.com/2025/09/22/d...

Jimmy Kimmel is returning! This is huge and shows the power of people organizing and demanding a world led by basic freedoms.

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.
