And, now, Alabama is back.

It was this line from Louisiana's SG to SCOTUS today that specifically prompted this, although there have been other things as well. The SG today insisted that Purcell, combined with the timing of Callais, is giving the state a free, non-court challengeable redistricting.

Right. The virus? Lab leak, which is important. The response to the virus? An overreaction because it's no big deal. The people who died from the virus? Fake numbers.

The indictment is absolute soup. Lab leakers have completely given up on proving their main contention and are now just flailing around looking for any rule violation or procedural misstep that makes it look like a cover-up happened. www.justice.gov/opa/pr/forme...

This is not an exaggeration. Alex Jones is allegedly bankrupt but has an infinite well of dark money to pay lawyers, sell pills, and harangue judges and the parents of dead kids. This stay must be lifted so we can take over, and I hope journalists look into where he's getting and stowing his money.

Dumping a diabetic torture victim in not only a country but a continent she has no ties to is...well, you can come up with some words for what that is

Is it just a coincidence that the DOJ indicted James Comey today after a judge ruled that his daughter Maurene Comey’s termination lawsuit can move forward? 🤔 Probably just a coincidence, huh? Probably also just a coincidence that she was a lead prosecutor on the Epstein case too.

Once again, Republicans are attacking a Democrat (Jeffries) for making a supposedly inflammatory statement that they claim incites violence, when it turns out he was directly quoting a statement from a member of the Trump admin.

A leading spy agency scrubbed its entire FOIA website after a bombshell FOIA release to FPF — so @jasonleopold.bsky.social FOIA'd to find out what happened. What he uncovered reeks of unlawful, partisan interference in the agency’s FOIA office — at public expense.

The original trial date was March 2024. Then SCOTUS stepped in with immunity.

ICYMI — @repmcgovern.bsky.social : “Trump is in an imaginary world. He needs an intervention… SNAP provides ~$2 per meal, we’re told more cuts are coming. We have 46 million hungry, they don’t seem to give a shit. We ought to be able to end hunger. They spent $60 billion on the war in Iran.”

RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'" Trump: "Right"

Late-night votes are an age-old pressure tactic for congressional leaders in both major political parties. Yet overnight sessions have become increasingly common in Congress as the House and the Senate struggle to govern.

❄️ California's snowpack is at 10–20%, a new record low. Snowpack is a slow-release water source. When it's low, moisture disappears faster and vegetation dries out weeks ahead of schedule. Drier grass ignites faster. Fire moves through it faster. @alertcalifornia.bsky.social #Snowpack #CAwx

Reporter: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ? Trump: It wasn't a depiction. I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor. And had to do with red cross as a red cross worker, which we support and only the fake news could come up with that one.

‘It’s war’: Trump ally’s ex-wife vows to go scorched earth on Melania amid Epstein claims

It appears ICE is emptying out detention centers ahead of possible inspections.

Kim: Three weeks of the war in Iran could have funded vision, hearing, and dental coverage for every senior in America on Medicare. I mean, it just gives you a sense of the trade-off.

The DEA does not employ anyone with medical credentials. It is a law enforcement agency that practices medicine, to the point they can literally deny Americans evidence-based medicines from patients’ own doctors. Since it was conceived, the US drug scheduling system has never been based on evidence.

Trump on his military advisers: "I was told this is a very dangerous mission. They didn't say it's a foolish mission, they said 'We're gonna be sacrificing hundreds of people to do this.' I just felt it was worth it."

US-Israeli strikes hit Tehran's Sharif University — known as Iran’s MIT & a hub of student protests against the Iranian regime. Targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime & only solidifies the regime's power. Trump & Netanyahu have no plan, just more wanton destruction.

Putin and Trump seem more alike every single day. Like Putin with Ukraine, Trump thought Iran would cave and the war would be over in days. Neither care about peace, only "victory," and both see victory as the annihilation of the other and all the spoils. And both relish the death and destruction.

one of my strongest and clearest takeaways from spending all of Lent knee-deep in ICE death reporting is that Camp East Montana should be razed to the ground and every single person who built it, worked there or approved their decisions deserves criminal charges. it is beyond what I imagined.

Listened to an interview with Josh Owens, a former contributor to Alex Jones’ Infowars. His assignment was to film someone dressed as a member of ISIS easily crossing the Mexico border. Problem? Border Patrol stopped them. So they filmed at a river not on the border. And got over a million views.

Regarding Todd Blanche: It is probably a good time to recall that he literally ordered up the kidnapping of the Mayor of New Jersey's biggest city. emptywheel.net/2025/09/30/s...
