Our analysis, which shows that more women nearly bled to death during miscarriage after Texas banned abortion, adds to a growing body of reporting revealing that maternal outcomes have gotten worse under bans. (Published July) By @andreasuozzo.com, Kavitha Surana and Lizzie Presser

this is kind of peak incel. by day, race war and fascism; when nom gets in trouble, mom calls the principal

FULL STORY: A Border Patrol agent pointed a gun at state Rep. Hoan Huynh while he warned North Side residents that immigration agents were conducting enforcement operations, said Huynh, a Vietnam refugee who is running to represent Illinois' 9th District in Congress. @wttw.bsky.social

When I was in the Navy they sent some of us from my ship to do close quarters combat training with Blackwater mercs (training facility no actual live rounds in combat situations) and they were such psychos about it they got reported by multiple people including like very conservative guys

Tom Homan reportedly accepted $50,000 stuffed into a takeout bag from undercover F.B.I. agents. We must continue to ask where the money went, Ruth Marcus writes. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/zn2Q1B

I feel like people are sort of sleeping on the US Attorney for EDVA clarifying—to a reporter!—that she did indeed intentionally violate the Federal Records Act by setting the Signal messages to auto-delete

yes, he is becoming more uninhibited and disconnected, but if he wants to tell american farmers to eat shit on camera, no one stop him

So weird how this keeps happening. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

A load of shit by any other name, however, sends a starkly clear message: “Trump’s post is not only juvenile but also betrays striking contempt for tens of millions of Americans he ostensibly leads and for the concept of democratic free speech,” open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

In both the Philippines and El Salvador, right wing leaders began just murdering people they said were drug dealers. Even though the population knew they were making a lot of mistakes, it was still very popular. Trump has praised both of these countries as models.

George Santos is a criminal. But he voted GOP so he’s pardoned. Media interviews him. Normalizes lawlessness We are an ignorance & loyalty based government. My disgust at the first 10 months of the admin is hard to define No self-respecting real “conservative” would tolerate this. Where are they?

1. ICE has sharply increased its spending on weapons in 2025, according to an analysis of federal gov't data by Popular Information. Records reveal ICE has increased spending on “small arms" — a category that includes guns, armor, chemical weapons, and explosives — by 700% compared to 2024 levels

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement. Check out how tiny the crowds were: Philly: 200 DC: "several hundred" Boston: 500 Austin: 1,000 Houston: 2,000

We are hundreds of miles on the interstate past Nixon's crimes that look like harmless school pranks by comparison. Presidency-ending for anyone else since WWII. At a minimum, an immediate SecState resignation. But we've decided nothing matters for this One Special Boy & his authoritarian playmates.

This is an international disaster. They targeted a disabled fishing boat in Colombian territorial waters and killed fishermen.

This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇 Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it. Our new @rollingstone.com piece based on our new book MASTER PLAN. Get the book at LeverNews.com/book

My feelings, exactly.

The Trump administration is offering $60K in student loan forgiveness as a recruitment tool for ICE, which just proves fighting Biden on student loan relief was never about the loans or “paying your own debt.” It was about who was offering it and who it would’ve helped.

Every Republican on the Sunday shows should be forced to comment on this. Show them. Make them watch That won't happen. But should

And they accuse us of hating America?!?!

🚨 NEWS: Colombian President Gustavo Petro accuses U.S. government officials of murder and violating Colombia’s sovereignty and says the Trump-ordered strike of a boat in the Caribbean killed a fisherman named Alejandro Carranza.

UPDATE: COLOMBIA’s President says 🇺🇸 government (Trump) “committed murder” and bombed a fisherman with no ties to drugs “The boat was adrift and had its distress signal up due to an engine failure”

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

BREAKING: No Kings Day protests are breaking records for turnout across the world, with thousands of events and millions marching. And, it's breaking through. Republicans, Independent, and Democrats are in attendance. Spread the word. Read the latest. Subscribe to support.

Today's official crowd count estimate from #NoKings coalition: 7 million people turned out nationwide That's 2 million more than the #NoKings peaceful protests in June

Solidarity!! Last week, Indiana University fired the director of student media & halted print on the Indiana Daily Student newspaper. Yesterday, Purdue’s student paper printed the banned edition & drove two hours to deliver it. Incredible www.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/l...

San Diego is one of the biggest military towns in the United States. This is huge. #NoKings

The No Kings March in Chicago is one of the largest gatherings I’ve seen here. Looking down from by the river, the crowd stretches for blocks down Michigan Ave and wraps around Wacker Dr. This video is from a few minutes ago and the end of the protest is nowhere in sight. @blockclubchi.bsky.social

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”? anyway that’s why these events are important

Student media rules. They are lapping a lot of the spineless media orgs this year and showing how solidarity is the way.

So we let the two supposed narco terrorists go rather than have the Trump admin show their proof in a US court.

Donald Trump is weak. He’s a bully. And when we won’t bow down to kings or to bullies, they start to lose their power. The American people do not bow down.

Aaron Parnas reports on the breaking news that the No Kings Day protests have broken records for turnout across the world. youtube.com/watch?v=robG...

The 105 House Republicans who condemned George Santos and voted to expel him from Congress are strangely silent about Trump springing him from prison after a very short stint. They are all terrified of King Donald.

Very good explanation by @markhertling.bsky.social of what may lie behind the sudden resignation of Adm. Holsey, and what may lie ahead. www.thebulwark.com/p/why-so-man...

As we resist tyranny, America gains solidarity. As we gain solidarity, we build courage. As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime. Let's continue to build solidarity by peacefully opposing our tyrant-in-chief today at No Kings Day 2.0.

NEW: “Bands of masked men apprehending people in broad daylight in the streets and hauling them off. Disappearing people to a third country,” a former DHS official said. “We’re at an inflection point in history right now and it’s frightening.”

NEW: Trump’s DHS appointees have: • Dismantled civil rights guardrails, • Protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, • Threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challenges to their arrests & tactics. By @davidmcswane.bsky.social @hannahallam.bsky.social

When Putin’s Sovereign Wealth Fund manager is celebrating America's SecDef with a Qanon slogan, you know we're on the very wrong side of history. #traitors

The traitors are easy to spot.

“He voted republican so he goes free!” FFS 🤦

Note, this is an example where the sole focus on Dems in DC really is silly. These are great questions. It's a good letter. It's one means of several. It's complemented by Martinez' own defense attorney and HE is bound to have more success (he got a preservation order today for comms involved).

Speaker Johnson: What are you hiding? You’re more interested in covering up what happened at the Epstein Mansion than protecting Americans’ health care.

Wow. New Economist poll finds only 34% of Americans say ICE's use of force has been justified, vs 51% who say it's been excessive. And they oppose agents wearing masks by 52-35. Yep, ICE is becoming a pariah agency, and that's gaining deep penetration in the culture:

All of the above.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

75% of Americans report soaring prices as Trump claims inflation ‘over’ www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Himes: If you've got the capability to blow a boat out of the water, you've got the capability to interdict it, arrest everyone on board, interrogate them, and find out where it was going, where it came from, who the bosses are, and what the distribution networks look like.
