A lawsuit was filed last week about the human rights abuses at the Broadview ICE facility (near Chicago.)

Snapshot of delays/cancellations in the United States as of 11/7/25 0547UTC Will see what it looks like tomorrow. #aviation

Mamdani’s win is a warning for media: Better get some leftist contributors or you simply won’t be able to cover/understand what is happening around America.

it does seem like there’s a major—though potentially fleeting—opportunity to invest in left-wing media. more than a million people in the most populous city in america just enthusiastically elected a democratic socialist and the world is watching. putting $$ towards left media rn is good business.

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows. Does this sound familiar? Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

For people who are interested in and working to develop abolitionist interventions and groups to help keep each other safe, we have a new resource that aims to help demystify a few things about how we create these organizations and formations, and how we sustain them. Read it here:

I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

This is nothing but an attempt to silence dissent and target people critical of the administration’s actions.

Federal agents in Chicago are aggressive everywhere but they elevate this in the SW Side. They don’t just snatch people and leave. They linger longer, march down streets with guns, interrupt traffic flows. The attacks feel concerted to instill as much fear & display power over immigrant mhoods.

The AFL-CIO should start throwing some money towards labor journalism. If it was done right (i.e. with them accepting that journalists must have full editorial control over what’s published, whether or not union leaders like what they have to say) it could really have such a hugely positive impact

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents. I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

🔴 BREAKING: Israel Launches New Wave of Strikes Across Southern Lebanon The Israeli military has unleashed heavy airstrikes across various parts of...Lebanon in what Al Jazeera described as the most serious escalation since the ceasefire that ended the 2024 war with Hezbollah... More details: ⬇️ 🧵

Like Obama, Zohran Mamdani fashioned a broad coalition to achieve a generational turnover, one that, as Mamdani said from the stage of the Brooklyn Paramount, “toppled a political dynasty.” religionnews.com/2025/11/05/a...

I highly recommend reading Spencer Ackerman's piece on Dick Cheney in The Nation. A proper obit for ol' Dick. 🥳

there was never a “political reality”. the people who told you we need to accept all this because the girlboss standing in for a geriatric fossil with dimentia lost an election by 1.3 points were never interested in actually fighting. ignore these people and mock them at every opportunity.

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

😂

Nobody is asking for Dem politicians to issue fawning statements about Dick Cheney. Literally not one person is asking for that. Dems could just say nothing. The fact that top Dems are instead issuing those laudatory statements is a deliberate middle finger to everyone harmed by Cheney.

Pity war criminal Dick Cheney won't see the shellacking Republicans are going to get tonight in part because the Imperial Presidency he was instrumental in forming is currently undermining the United States.

thank you for the outpouring of support! those of us laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday are now sharing our GoFundMe to help us cover our emergency expenses now that we've lost our incomes, as we get back on our feet.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse. I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Extraordinary how many establishment Democrats really wish they didn't have a talented rising new star who connects to people by talking to them and understanding what their interests are, then speaking to those interests. Like a job where the new guy makes everyone look bad simply by doing the job.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members. At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Long live Guilloteen Vogue

This really sucks, both for those getting laid off AND the readers for whom Teen Vogue has been a great source of in depth political reporting.

At Broadview ICE detention facility for Mass today, Fr. David Inczauskis, SJ reveals “tragic” and “devastating” news that a member of group bearing Guadalupe Banner to Mass today, was detained by ICE this morning in procession to detention facility.

The IOF violently dispersed Palestinians harvesting olives in Sinjil under the pretext that it’s a “closed military zone”. Then they stole the olives. World’s most heavily armed petty criminals.

🩺 WHO: 19 more children were evacuated from Gaza today to receive medical care abroad, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus confirmed. Since Israel seized the Rafah crossing, fewer than 200 people in total have been allowed to leave for treatment, while more than 22,000 critically ill patients...

The real issue here is not just the revealed preference for Republicans to starve people (though that's there) but the eagerness to upend 250 years of legislative control of the spending power. That underlies everything that's been happening this year.

🚨 REVEALED: The company handling prescriptions for U.S. troops is charging $484 more per generic drug than local pharmacies — and pocketing the difference. Taxpayers pay more. Troops get less. Read the investigation by @helenwsantoro.bsky.social for The Lever 👇 www.levernews.com/how-a-pharma...

Ruben Torres Maldonado is coming home to his wife, sick daughter and four-year-old son.

They hanged the people who got us the 8-hour workday.

"if you don't want children eating dinner just type that"

man, it sure looks like republicans are using threat of federal government force to try and silence journalists

"Every minute the city delays is another minute a family continues to suffer without the support that they desperately need," said a Ward 10 resident. Angry residents at the meeting called for the city to allocate the full $280 million of Rams settlement funding. www.stlpr.org/government-p...

Only one single person — the hero filming — took any sort of action. Everybody else just keeps walking, pretending not to see a screaming woman being dragged away. This is so incredibly Nazi Germany.

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo “I’m an American citizen so leave me alone” “Alright, we just got to verify that” www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...

President Trump’s immigration crackdown has led to increased ICE raids, resulting in human rights abuses in detention centers—incl. the abuse & neglect of disabled immigrants, Reina Sultan reports. A monitoring visit at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center has exposed inhumane & unlawful conditions.

These are prisons. The criminalization of homelessness and push towards mandated, coerced medical interventions and civil commitment—a bipartisan project—was always going to lead us here. This is why when we talk about, strategize and organize around abolition, we must include ALL carceral spaces.

NEW: Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, keeps shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma. Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply.

Last year, Andrew Cuomo brought in nearly $5 million for "consulting." We don't know who paid him. Or who he now owes.

i hate to be that bitch, but my sources are telling me this early voting data has gotten Zohran's people rightly spooked and y'all better stop assuming this one's in the bag. GOTV

still can't get over what we learned today that the actual story is elon musk just copied enough of wikipedia word-for-word for grokipedia to be useful but rewrote all articles related to him to be more favorable, leaving out facts he doesn't want people to see or talk about

from Gaza to the US, starvation is a favored weapon of the American ruling class

BREAKING: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu orders immediate "powerful" strikes in Gaza.

I’m watching the World Series. I’m taking part o the Stanford prison experiment. I’m at the combination World Series/Stanford prison experiment

Great reporting from @mannyramos.bsky.social: "One Chicago-based company was awarded more than $7 million to relocate ICE employees while a suburban weapons manufacturer was paid nearly $1.5 million in two weeks to supply pepper balls and air-powered guns." blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/23/c...

FYI: it’s, uh, *not nothing* that the head of an entire Christian denomination — here Rev. Karen Georgia A. Thompson of the United Church of Christ — issued a statement decrying DHS agents for shooting one of her pastors in the face with a pepper round, adding, “No one is safe from tyranny."
