There are going to be a lot of Autism Parents who celebrate this. There are even going to be disabled people who cheerlead MAHA for this. It's still catastrophic.

"I did nothing criminal. I did nothing illegal. Uh, hey—lookit this." [pokes self in eye]

When I was a kid (in the 80s) there was a huge scare when somebody laced Tylenol with cyanide in the midwest. Is Trump tanking that brand because he is cognitively stuck in the '80s? Anyway, how does Kenvue feel about their brand being tanked, again?

Counter-proposal: all public universities in Oklahoma have (Stan-Lee-Style) holograms of Woody Guthrie and Ralph Ellison (also prominent sons of Oklahoma) installed instead.

Do we think this non violent Non cooperative obstruction means my dawg is opposed to due process rights or in favor of them?

What are the names of the U.S. Navy officers carrying out these orders to serially bomb civilian boats that pose no threat to their own vessels, killing everyone aboard? Surely they’ll want to take personal credit for this honorable service and perhaps wear a little campaign medal on their chest.

I've been trying to understand why this isn't generating as much fury as it should, and i think it's because there is a fundamental belief among many americans that the military can pretty much do whatever (which isn't entirely inaccurate.) that said, what the actual fuck.

People are in motion everywhere.

“Over half of the ice detainees held in New York jails between January and July — and 62 percent in Nassau County — had no criminal charges or conviction, the federal data shows.”

The only thing that negotiating with Trump accomplishes is creating the illusion that Trump can be negotiated with, and that any deal you make with him can be trusted.

There are many things we will look back on with incredulity but what has happened over the past ten days, is absolutely criminal.

Kind of wild to see a Saturday Night Massacre style scandal play out in full public based on a mistaken DM….

hey, there's a thread linked below about why this shutdown matters for trans people specifically & why senate democrats need to hear that, yes, a shutdown is worth it & people only don't hate you when you actually fight for something. read @ericmgarcia.bsky.social; read the thread. make some calls.

John Roberts's "there's no such thing as corruption" and "the president has the right to use the DOJ as his personal law firm" jurisprudence is really working out well for us.

It is insanity that this hugely consequential news — whether Trump’s EO vomit tirade about H1Bs applies to current visa holders — is sourced *anonymously*! No one will go on record to clarify the new rules!? www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Huge crowd and big energy at the #MakeBillionairesPay March today!! @riseandresist.bsky.social @indivisible.org

In 1954, Broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow reminded us that disagreeing with those in power isn't the same as being disloyal. Patriotism is not blind loyalty. We have a responsibility to speak up and insist on fairness and due process.

her name couldn’t really be WILL OBEY

alert to all H1B holders, please share: Trump just banned H-1B employees from reentering US unless employer pays $100,000 "fee". Proclamation applies to both new H-1B entrants and current H-1B employees who are abroad. set to take effect tmrw sun sept 21. please return if you can. i am so sorry. 😢

You cannot "bargain" with fascists. I think that everyone should refuse to do this and also to stop supporting people who do this.

Keep the pressure on, people

Anyways, political violence is bad. Shutting down the Broadview Facility at 1930 Beach Street is good. And ICE agents should be prosecuted for their crimes.

Time to take this baby to 98%.

Tear gas everywhere.

AOC, right on the money:

Or else.

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot. one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Wow -- it really IS like a real doctor!

I just spoke to NYC Comptroller Brad Lander as he left police custody following his arrest at immigration court. Here’s what he said:

yes! congressional control of the purse applies to the white house as well. you can defund stephen miller.

Excellent!

#boycottdisneyabc I don't even watch Jimmy Kimmel, but whatever. Free speech has to mean something, and the freedom to mock the regime is one of my dearest held ones. sites.google.com/view/return-...

Those are some well-laid schemes you've got there. Be a shame if they were to gang agley.

More of this, please.

Right. What else can I cancel?

We made a list post bit.ly/boycottdisne...

great news! you're not actually seeing karl rove, john yoo, and david frum criticize the administration's lawlessness more stridently than dem leadership. you, reader, were infected with rabies by a brown bat 36 hours ago and this is all just the virus working its way through your nervous system

Psycho news day, but I had great day out doing a banner drop on the BQE with @bqevisibility.bsky.social and really fun canvassing onboarding training for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, and this absurd dawg is mine

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

If you have opportunities to get out and do things with others, jump at the opportunity: meetings, classes, social events, etc... Get out and be with other people. It's essential. If virtual is more convenient, then take advantage of those opportunities to be with other people.

Organizers are exhausted. More people are needed so you should also be organizing.

Wow, first time I've seen him underwater in this poll with white people. He has negative disapproval across every possible cohort.

One pretty foolproof way to know your government is fascist is when your government tries to punish you for calling it fascist.

I want to be clear about what I'm saying here. I'm not denying the danger. I'm not denying the threat. I AM saying that we live in a geographically huge country where the vast majority oppose this administration. They don't have the power to work on that scale. Tho they want us to believe they do

A reporter just asked the U.S. president a perfectly legitimate question about his attorney general's vow to prosecute people for constitutionally protected speech. He responded by threatening to prosecute the reporter. The threat itself is an abuse of power. It ought to be an impeachable offense.

that article, btw, of which i’m extremely proud
