I have assumed this for some time, but we are seeing it play out in real time.

🚨 IMPORTANT THREAD 🚨 People are protesting the Broadview ICE facility tonight. This will likely be an extremely high-risk action. I caution you to consider your risk level before attending. I will not attend. Attendance risks your safety, but also the safety of Broadview residents + detainees. 1/6

They are so afraid of this they won’t seat a newly elected Congresswoman from AZ to keep it from happening.

Trump uses the same sort of hate speech against Chicago and other great cities … insanity. #defenddemocracy #fightfascism

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.

BREAKING: The FBI has fired agents photographed kneeling during a 2020 racial justice protest that followed the death of George Floyd, AP sources say.

🚨BREAKING: Pennsylvania Supreme Court RULES that election officials violated voter’s rights by rejecting mail-in ballots with technical errors without notifying voters. Voters must be given notice their ballots won’t count so they can challenge the disqualification or cast a provisional ballot.

Disgraceful - but wholly in line with how this regime operates #defenddemocracy #fightfascism

Ossoff: "We have a president who's completely out of control, a crook engaged in unprecedented corruption, who's passing one of the most unpopular agendas in history. The public is turning against him. The opposition is motivated. We can win & we have to win, but we don't have the luxury of despair"

Feds Tear Gas, Shoot Rubber Bullets At Protesters Outside Broadview ICE Facility Again blockclubchicago.org/2025/09/26/f...

Aside from how utterly deranged it is to even make light of this, he's not mocking some reporter or pundit by calling him "General." Ben Hodges is a real three-star general, he was the commander of the US Army in Europe before he retired. In other words, he's worked with a lot of Germans soldiers.

This is what Ice is doing in front of the cameras, imagine what they’re doing when no one is filming

At least 16 people have died in ICE custody so far this year. At least 1,250 people detained by ICE are now missing. Almost half of the people arrested by ICE have no criminal record. This is fascism, and Trump made sure his oligarchs are profiting from it.

So the guy who decapitated a whale and the guy who stared directly into the sun during an eclipse solved autism. Cool, cool.

Jeffries: "We will not be intimidated by Vought, who's totally out of control. The OMB has been illegally shutting down parts of the govt throughout the entire year, & the notion Dems are gonna be intimidated when all he's done is send a message that Republicans are determined to hurt people ... "

Remind me, as I was only a teenager, wasn’t there a big political scandal in the 90s involving sex? I can’t put my finger on it.

Nicholas Kristoff’s exposé of the killer impacts of the Trump regime’s demolition of USAID assistance on Ugandan women needing C-sections so they & their babies can survive their pregnancies adds yet another scurrilous notch to our Outlaw Prez’s daily parade of evil. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/24/o...

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

"This show is not important. What is important is that we get to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this" - Jimmy Kimmel

KIMMEL: “He’s gunning for our journalists too — they want to pick and choose what the news is… it’s so important to have a free press, and it’s nuts we aren’t paying more attention to it.”

Sens. Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock are asking Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem for answers after more than a dozen people died in immigration detention, as the department rushes to expand.

Some of us do.

Imagine if the public never had the chance to learn about the Pentagon Papers. The Defense Department's crack down on reporting is an egregious assault on the free press, a critical pillar of our democracy.

Pedo: "We've got a lot of stupid people in this country running things." "We're subsidizing the rest of the world stupidly because they're a lot of stupid people in this country running things." For once, he is right; he couldn't even pronounce acetaminophen.

This is unconscionable. Once again the 6-3 SCOTUS majority shows it’s in the tank for Trump and the rich and powerful. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/22/u...

We can fight back. And we can win.

🚨 BREAKING: In a 6-3 decision, SCOTUS allows Trump to dismiss the last Democratic member of the Federal Trade Commission, signaling a potential overturn of a 90-year-old ruling protecting independent agencies from executive control.

There is only one way to resolve this. RELEASE THE HOMAN TAPES!!!

Remember the good old days when Bill Clinton bumping into AG Lynch for a few minutes at an airport was unacceptable? I don't think Pam Bondi is long for her job.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ shut down an FBI probe after agents caught Border Czar Tom Homan on tape taking $50,000 in cash from undercover operatives posing as contractors in exchange for promised gov’t contracts. MSNBC’s Carol Leonnig & Ken Dilanian with a massive scoop. Link in reply.

Giving a bully your lunch money is only a temporary downpayment for future bullying. We ALL need to step up for the first amendment. By-the-way, for the record, this ex-Disney employee finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny. mh

While 🇺🇸 farms go under…

Fear has destroyed more lives than any tyrant...but only when people let it. This is the moment to master yours...stand firm... and resist like your future depends on it...because it does. You're scared. History won't give a shit that you were scared. There are no other acceptable options. None.

Under the First Amendment, the president doesn’t get to censor comedians, TV networks or political speech. Americans and our Constitution reject Kings, dictators and speech Commissars.

And Trump *Will* amend and refile. Because it’s not about winning, it’s about intimidation. He wants anyone who might oppose him to think that it just too much trouble.

The Oversight Committee is launching an investigation into ABC, Sinclair, and the FCC. We will not be intimidated and we will defend the First Amendment.

Ms. Abughazaleh is a candidate for Congress #defenddemocracy #fightfascism

Protesters were tear gassed, shot with pepper spray bullets and some detained by ICE officers outside of a facility in suburban Broadview Friday morning. blockclubchi.co/3VslkAr

My column in the Sun-Times today: www.everygoddamnday.com/2025/09/then...

"Democratic New York lawmakers — as well as City Comptroller Brad Lander — were arrested by DHS officers Thursday after demanding access to an alleged detention facility run by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at 26 Federal Plaza." Absurd🤮 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Censorship never stops with just one book, one newspaper, one person. The end goal of censorship is always complete control. For Christ's sake, Kimmel just showed a video of the President's own words. Stop capitulating. It will never save you in the end.
