They planned to force him to crash or shoot him for recording their crimes. They then accused him of assaulting them. www.charlotteobserver.com/news/local/c...

A video from inside a Border Patrol vehicle shows agents chasing a US citizen for filming them. The citizen refused to get out when they illegally ordered him to stop. The agents say: "This is great." "This is fun." "He's going to get shot."

Thud.

The official Department of Justice recruitment page is saying the quiet part out loud: they don’t care about law, they only care about deportations. Flagrant. False. Possibly illegal. This is why many of us have advocated for an independent immigration court for years. 

“After Aceituno again told the agents he was a U.S. citizen, they finally threw him out of the van…[And] the agents had taken his car keys. (Aceituno voted for Trump in 2024 because of the border and the economy. He now calls it ‘the worst decision of my life.’)” www.thebulwark.com/p/baker-past...

You should be paying attention to Tennessee. The congressional race in the state’s seventh congressional district, which includes Nashville, is where cracks in Trump’s base are starting to show.

No, he isn’t. There is literally no legal means by which he can do this. It’s not presidential power. TPS by law cannot be terminated early, and Somali TPS is not set to expire until March 17, 2026.

#NEW: In a massive escalation, Missouri AG Hanaway has referred the groups and organizations running the referendum to repeal Missouri's congressional map to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

MOTHER JONES: “You should be paying attention to the race in Tennessee’s 7th congressional district”

How it started. How its going. Looks like socialism won, guys.

Trump feuding with Marjorie Taylor Greene but being in love with Zohran Mamdani was not on my November 2025 bingo card

More and more Americans are struggling to keep the lights and heat on in their homes. At the same time, giant corporations are raking in billions of dollars thanks to Trump’s tax breaks. This is the Trump economy in a nutshell: great for the ultra-rich, bad for everyone else.

The thing that's always frustrated the right wing ideologues who've glommed onto Trump is that he doesn't have the attention span to actually be a committed ideological warrior. He can scream all the right culture war shit, but it's just WWE pugilistic showmanship. He basically has no belief system.

16-year-old Kateryna from Kyiv has become the youngest pupil to complete an internship at Swansea University in Wales. Kateryna specializes in space research: the findings of which could result in net zero through advanced space-based solar panels. This is her story🧵

trump is, first and foremost, a starfucker

Trump regularly kneecapping Stefanik, one of his most loyal sycophants, is deeply, deeply funny

Zohran Mamdani cucked Trump hard lol

TN-7 is competitive in part bc of the environment & in part bc @runforsomething.net alum @aftynbehn.bsky.social is an incredible community-rooted candidate who is willing to do the work to make the case to voters, even when the odds are against her. This is why we build a bench *everywhere.”

The New York Times' story about Trump calling for the execution of members of Congress ran on Page 16 today, with an itty-bitty promo on the front about halfway down the page. No wonder Trump thinks he can get away with anything.

I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the space shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said.”

Megyn Kelly claimed Epstein was into “the barely legal type,” referring to 15 year-olds. So I wrote about how her comments highlight the ways both purity culture and rape culture sexualize young girls and make male desire their responsibility. www.liberalcurrents.com/the-barely-l...

A Thursday in U.S. courts 1) "This Court has grave concerns about the government’s apparent willingness to disregard this Court’s orders, even after previous admonition." - Judge Stephanie. Gallagher, Trump appointee, Nov. 20, 2025

he hangs out in group chats with teenaged nazis, so there’s that

"The overwhelming sense I got from watching the president was just trying to count the number of lies, and I ran out of fingers and toes. He lied and said that prices are coming down. He lied when he said prices were at an all-time high under President Biden. They're at an all-time high right now."

X users have found that Grok has now been so tuned to praise Elon Musk that there is no task which it doesn’t say he’s the best at. Grok says Musk is fitter than LeBron and could resurrect from the dead faster than Jesus did in three days. So childish and funny to see a 50+ year old man do this. 🤣

Nobody wants this shit. Nobody. The hostile reaction has been so pronounced, in fact, that it feels like a company announcing it would never force AI into its products would carve out a pretty good chunk of the market.

Remember a few weeks ago when Trump brought in a couple bulldozers and demolished about a third of the White House? That was weird.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) says someone showed up to her D.C. office today and made white supremacist threats. Capitol Police had to intervene. This was hours after Trump said Democrats in Congress should be executed. "When leaders promote hate, hate shows up."

The House voted 230 to 176 to allow oil and gas companies to write a government report about why oil and gas refineries aren't making them enough money. Just trademark corruption. And yet 25 Democrats voted for it.

Previously: His wife visited him ICE in detention on his 50th birthday. She couldn’t even bring him the card she’d made. They could only speak through a phone, divided by a thick pane of glass. It was one of few times she’d ever seen him cry.

Trump is absolutely cratering on economy in new Marquette poll: Overall econ approval: 36-64 On tariffs: 37-63 On inflation/cost of living: 28-72 (!!!) "We’re looking at a really grim downward spiral for Trump," says @timothynoah.bsky.social. All on the pod: newrepublic.com/article/2034...

Weird. Nothing on the @nytimes.com homepage about the President of the United States calling for the execution of members of the opposition in response to their political speech.

Below 30% approval on inflation/cost of living means the disapproval is cutting into Trump’s base.

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

Remember the horrifying text messages that showed a Border Patrol agent bragging about shooting someone in Chicago last month? The government just abandoned their charges against the woman who was shot to avoid even *more* embarrassing texts being released, it seems. New @motherjones.com

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Between a random Portland barista saying he wants to hurt Charlie Kirk and the President of the United States calling for the execution of Democrats, both sides clearly have a violence problem

Read this investigation by @byrontau.bsky.social now: apnews.com/article/immi...

This is a good line and the key point to be amplifying: "What’s most telling is that the President considers it punishable by death for us to restate the law." Keep shining a bright light on Trump's violent lawlessness.

“We don’t really care about the Europeans.”

Texas’ abortion bans are killing women. This is what that looks like.

New from me: Kash Patel is engaged in purges, removal of real accountability, and impunity for loyalists at the FBI. Researchers told me that these are the exact patterns that create abusive national security organizations under authoritarianism. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/how-the-fb...

The dynamics within the Democratic Party are just different from the GOP here, which Trump and Comer don’t seem to have figured out
