My naive wish is that even one Canadian journalist, one politician, one security analyst, would address the implications of Canada choosing military integration with an authoritarian power that no longer respects the rule of law or international law. Looks like that’s not going to happen today.

It simply should not be possible for the president to repeatedly claim that a major city is burning without a wall of live standups happening in that city clearly demonstrating that it is not

American broadcast journalism has utterly failed and is a dead industry, there's nothing left worth saving

If SCOTUS were not also simply an organ of Trumpist rule, Voughts entire vast papertail of "I hate the government and will break laws to destroy it" would make these layoffs illegal & the workers could rightfully expect court to rule in their favor. Unfortunately, SCOTUS www.cnn.com/2025/10/10/p...

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

I used to be disparaging of the Green Party media operation, but it’s fair to say that since Polanski took over in England and Wales it’s now firing on all cylinders.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

Love the new court. Classy

There is a hack if you really enjoy flanneled forearms but the catch is you gotta live in Alaska…because it’s pretty much continuous.

WGN, this woman’s employer, is now reporting she was not charged with any crimes and was released. DHS said earlier she was arrested for assault for throwing objects at agents.

Holy footnote, Batman! Hamilton: What kind of stupid, self-defeating, tyrannical maniac would send the National Guard hundreds of miles from home to oppress people in other states?! Sit down, Don.

Luckily this industry isn't carrying the entire economy right now

Man, a meager deputy chief of staff yields enormous power, who knew.

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

MIT refuses suicide pill, other schools weighing options.

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

Dems will sell trans people down the river for a slightly more comfortable boot on their neck. Fools and cowards.

Agree. Then do the same with immigration.

Please keep us posted. This is ribbeting.

A few minutes ago in the House: - Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week - House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

he also said that 80% of antifa's members are landlords and if you lower the cost of housing, you basically starve the network of its financing

a friend of mine in antifa told me that antifa's headquarters is SHEIN and if the company fell the whole network would fall

7.8 magnitude earthquake hits Drake Passage.

Took a break from the Supreme Court's ongoing horrorshow to focus on what really matters: how funny it is for a federal judge to decide, as a matter of law, that Drake lost the Kendrick Lamar beef

I think we need to be crystal clear about how Trump's creation of a nationwide police force—loyal only to him—threatens to create a feedback loop of lawlessness in which our constitutional right to dissent may vanish. slate.com/news-and-pol...

HAHAHAHAHAHA get fucked you rich asshole

i am not saying the world has gone completely bonkers but the world has gone absolutely completely bonkers

George was just trying to get to work. ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process. This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

CHICAGO — WGN News editor/producer Debbie Brockman grabbed by Trump’s ICE goons.. who then intentionally ram a bystander’s car as they peel away. More: www.fox32chicago.com/news/wgn-new...

they are clearly trying to terrify everyone out of showing up to the No Kings protest and I simply do not think it is going to work see you all there

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning. A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

We have reclaimed the humble frog from the right

Important reminder here that the US is not the only place where fossil fuel interests are pushing back hard against climate science and clean energy 👇

This is the way

It's important to focus on who won, not who did not.

The Rutgers TPUSA chapter — whose characterization of a historian there as a “outspoken, well-known antifa member” led to death threats and moving his family to Europe — think *other* people are being “blatantly defamatory.” Not them, though. They’re doing politics the right way.

With SCOTUS set to legalize conversion therapy, I think it's important for states to get around this decision by implementing new legislation applying private rights of action to practitioners of conversion therapy by their victims with large damages and long statutes of limitations.

why is this a "major decision"? who the fuck cares about hillary clinton chatting with mike pompeo?

i feel like everything bari weiss does is treated like she's a network exec in 1973 when she's really just a LARPer at the helm of a particularly irrelevant brand while TV news is dying.
