Fuck ICE. Cowardly bastards.

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity. "To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

Mass arrests of pro-Russia agents across Moldova today. Pro-Eu President Maia Sandu came out fighting. Her statement: ⬇️

Who would be tha-a-a-at stupid? Oh, yeah...them.

Hmmmm.....

Sir, I come to you as a big, strong man with tears in my eyes. Should I consider a shoulder replacement at my age? What are your feelings?

I love it! I love it! I love it!

There were probably a couple of GOP women there, but they were still in the kitchen preparing snacks... /s

Disgusting.......

Check out the post-WWII "Battle of Athens" (TN) on Wiki or another source. It was a near perfect example of the attitude to which you refer.

$414 million in @california-hcd.bsky.social funds are headed out the door to create another 2,099 affordable homes. California is outperforming the rest of the country in turning our state's homelessness crisis around — and creating more homes is a key component part of our strategy.

This is the harm RFK has already done, and what he's planning, which may be worse. @citizencohn.bsky.social joins the @monacharen.bsky.social Show to discuss.

"I think we found an answer to autism." There are no credible studies on this. Maybe the manufacturer didn't donate to the Republicans during the election campaign, and this is now an act of revenge by D....J. Trump and Robert F.... Kennedy.

Fun story this morning. I spoke with Curtis Evans, the retired Marine in the viral photo below who took part in the anti-ICE protest at Broadview. He's a thoughtful guy, well read and with a dry sense of humor. Story @taskandpurpose.com taskandpurpose.com/news/marine-...

This is the face of moral bankruptcy, cheap, hollow, and corrupt to the core.

In #Antifa News: John #Luckadoo, the last surviving pilot from the storied 100th Bombardment Group, a war-battered unit of B-17 heavy bombers that flew missions deep over German-held territory during World War II, died on Sept. 1. He was 103. #RIP

This should alarm everyone. Among all the teachers, professors, and staff members who have been fired for posting about Charlie Kirk, one was placed on leave at UCLA for his post on Bluesky. They are coming for everyone.

How's the war between Brazil and Canada going? I'm not finding any news about that one this morning?

Fact is, we fought fascism and won. World War II. Every American should be an anti-fascist.

Al Sharpton at the National Action Network rally today: "I don't endorse candidates, but I take attendance. Let's hear from Andrew Cuomo. Oh he's not here. Let's hear from Mayor Adams. Oh he's not here. Let's hear for Zohran Mamdani!" youtu.be/eznxz7ZA5Yc?...

So, why did Biden do this...? What failures is he hiding? /s

Solitary confinement is inhumane and part of a larger pattern of systemic abuse against people in ICE detention — this torturous practice must end.

The University Democrats at UT-Austin, a longstanding student group, has been told that no guests, candidates, or speakers can speak at their meetings unless the administration approves them. Submitted speakers' lists have been ignored or summarily denied. Please HMU if you know a good 1A attorney

I remember being so proud to be American. Would cry when the national anthem was sung. I believed in my role as a soldier to protect my family and country from the enemy of the people. I lost that feeling. It hurts. It sucks. How long, if ever, will it be before I feel patriotic again?

Former counselor to RFK Jr’s predecessor:

🚨UPDATE: In response to the boycott that erupted over the weekend, Disney decided to update the cancellation process on their website, making it MORE DIFFICULT FOR THEIR SUBSCRIBERS TO STOP GIVING THEM MONEY. This underhanded strategy hasn’t retained customers as they hoped.

Each year, nearly 5,000 children are diagnosed with brain tumors, which are the leading cause of pediatric cancer-related death. In August, the Trump administration announced it would stop supporting a federally funded network dedicated to researching these deadly cancers.

Just returned from visiting an Office Depot store in the,Washington, D.C. area. Their entire stock of pink erasers and white out had reportedly been bought out Friday by two men who arrived in a black, government-plated SUV. /s

Delays have occurred before but explanations and a new release date have always been provided. Not so here.

Roll the tape.

As Trump tries to cover up the crimes of the Epstein sex trafficking network he is now also overseeing an enormous global human trafficking network.

RFK Jr said we'd know what causes autism in a year. Battarchaya said during the Long COVID meeting that we'd have answers by this time next year Is this like Elon's "five years" for developing tech? Do they figure everyone will have forgotten it by then, just in time for the next false promise?

Could it be a professional blessing to have your credentials to repeat official pentagon drivel revoked? You could then go back to actual impactful reporting.

Keep talking, bozo.

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous. It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy." Because that's not how America works. play.prx.org/listen?ge=pr...

Sen. Murphy: "Tom Homan, Trump's border czar, literally accepted a bag of cash—$50,000—and the investigation was dropped when Trump became president. There are two standards of justice now in this country. If you are a friend of the president...you can get away with anything."

On Earth 2.0, this would be The Story of the week, a firestorm of corruption, cover-ups, and scandal. Tom Homan, the thuggish head of Trump’s immigration brute squad was videotaped accepting a $50,000 cash bribe… and the Trump DOJ shut the investigation down. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Trump’s power largely depends on the appearance that he is powerful. That image excites his loyalist claque, keeps others in line, while spreading fear amongst his opponents. But are we seeing signs Trump’s assault on democratic norms is glitching? open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Not going away, Donald.
