#caturday also #NoKings

#nokings #ohio #kglw Athens, Ohio today.

Last night, Covington KY cops rioted and beat protestors against ICE. The footage is galling.

Everyone in America needs to read this FREE—I’ve gifted it below—report from the conservative WALL STREET JOURNAL about Trump and Epstein. Apparently the president has now threatened to sue the WSJ over this 100% accurate report due to how damaging it is.

Exclusive: For Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday, friends created a book of bawdy letters. One was from Donald Trump.

11 MILLION PEOPLE!! 💥💥💥 Are we nearing the magic 3.5%?? Never forget….WE hold the power. #nokings

I am devastated by the loss of Minnesota State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in a horrifying act of violence. Our prayers are with their children and all who loved them, and with State Senator John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, who were also targeted.

Boston's "No Kings" event coincided with Pride so the organizations joined forces for a . . . "No Kings but Yaaas Queen" event and tbh, I want a copy if this poster. www.boston.com/news/local-n...

I, like many of you, am not only devastated but furious at the assassination of two Minnesota lawmakers this morning. This isn’t some isolated tragedy. It’s extremism, it’s fascist violence, and we have to treat it that way. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: Federal Judge Breyer rules that Trump's federalization of the California National Guard was ILLEGAL and orders control of the Guard be RETURNED to Gov. Gavin Newsom.

I dunno, but maybe Democratic members of Congress shouldn't go the White House picnic tonight and pretend everything's fine and dandy, unless and until Sen. Padilla gets a phone call apologizing for what happened from Donald Trump?

House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

“.. the mood is one of pervasive fatalism that the U.S. will not prove an honest broker. ‘It was a bad deal the first time around. They rolled over us and they would do it again,’ an EU diplomat said.” @politico.com www.politico.eu/article/eu-t...

#nowplaying #vinyl Sungazer, “Against the Fall of Night.” I’ve never been much of a jazzbo but I got turned onto this Brooklyn fusion duo by chance when I was pulling up a kglw song that also happens to be the title of their first album- “Perihelion.” this one came out last August and it’s amazing.

The harmonica/ guitar battle? Hello???? 😭😭

#nowplaying #vinyl “Summer ‘75.” I was born on the very last day of that summer. Hits recorded *not* by the original artists that I got at a flea market for $1 last weekend. Great nostalgia here: “Brandy” & “Wildfire” (always associated with Mom), & the whole concept of a re-recorded top 40 is 🤯.

Fuck these heartless CBP agents.

NYT, page one: The “$1.5 billion golf complex” and “Trump skyscraper .. are the Trump family’s first projects in Vietnam — part of a global moneymaking enterprise that no family of a sitting American president has ever attempted on this scale.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/w...

They want to know if it’s still #caturday.

I’ll say this for the Tapster. He hasn’t let his busy schedule pushing a pointless trashy book compromise his ability to consistently ask MAGAts stupid softball questions without any follow-up.

This is the funniest movie production fact I’ve ever read

Man, this is a great Hypertension!

#nowplaying #vinyl Motörhead, “On Parole.” The 2020 double-LP reissue. Picked this up at a flea market last for a mere $5. Pretty great.

#WorldGothDay #nowplaying #vinyl As I’ve been selling a few dozen of my not-in-heavy-rotation records to move to a new house, I’ve been regretting selling my old Christian Death vinyl (Only Theater of Pain & Ashes) when I left Chicago 15 years ago. Just got this one for the first time though!

BREAKING: ICE and private prison contractor GEO Group are refusing to allow Mahmoud Khalil to hold his newborn son for the first time, even after his wife flew them over 1,000 miles to visit. We just asked a federal court to order ICE to grant Mahmoud's request for a contact visit with his family.

🚨Reports around the country today that some people who showed up for their immigration court hearings were told that ICE prosecutors had dismissed their cases — and then were arrested moments later by ICE officers and taken to detention centers for unknown reasons. Happening in multiple cities.

Brian Eno calls on Microsoft to cease its partnership with Israel and pledges to donate the original fee for his Windows '95 chime to victims of Israel's genocide in Gaza

“.. ‘We need to do some rewriting” and more analytic work “so this document is not used against the DNI or POTUS,’ Joe Kent, the chief of staff to Ms. Gabbard, wrote in an email to a group of intelligence officials on April 3 ..” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/20/u...

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️ They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador. Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose. No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

66,000 tons of food are rotting away in USAID warehouses thanks to Trump and DOGE. That's enough food to feed more than a million people in the world's poorest countries for three months — including over 480,000 kids. In what world is starving children "efficient"?

Administrators of New Trier Township High School in the wealthy northern Chicago suburbs announced that “Understanding Today’s Struggle for Racial Civil Rights” would be the theme for a school-wide event. The backlash was swift and intense. Read our investigation from 2022.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

If you're trying to build muscle, getting enough protein is a must. But does it matter if that protein comes from meat or plants? A new study overturns assumptions.

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

If you’re just hearing about Kristi Noem’s proposed Hunger Games reality TV show with immigrants, you can call the producer’s agent and urge him to drop his client who is now toxic. For anyone who wants to call: Producer Rob Worsoff’s agent is Ryan Wackerman at IAG His number is: 310.888.4200

Another day in #athensohio that reminds me to not despair

Appalling. Unacceptable. Yet another grim reminder that India is a free democracy no more. scroll.in/latest/10824...
