Local police could be earning points with their community by fucking up ICEs operations through malicious compliance but instead they choose to alienate their community.

The Wall Street Journal reports that Ghislaine Maxwell had a meeting with an unknown person in her new prison camp, during which the entire prison was on lockdown. Inmates say she's getting unusually favorable treatment by the prison.

So instead we write nothing, and then yell at lower courts for failing to read our minds — ACB

And notably, that's a lot of old-ass white folks standing, clapping, cheering! For a simple ask of "Drag ICE in front of the Senate, unmask them, and ask questions"! Which is a VERY mild position (depending on subsequent consequences)! It should be the bare minimum for federal Dem leadership!

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

found exactly the one use of “evil recoils in the presence of Christ” I am willing to sign off on, HOOOOOOOOLY SHIT Father Larry did not come here to fuck around

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

> It is 2025 BC. I am a soldier from one of the outlying provinces called to defend the pyramid in Memphis > It is 2025 AD. I am a soldier from one of the outlying provinces called to defend the pyramid in Memphis

First reporter to ask JD Vance about this wins

yoooooo they turned the priests holding the MONSTRANCE away like, even a heathen like me knows what that means this is a full slap in the face of the tradcath faker freaks in this administration. that's WILD.

Not a single MAGA Catholic is a real Catholic.

BRB, starting a Graham Hancock-style conspiracy theory about the National Guard keeping archaeologists from learning the truth about the Bass Pro Shop Pyramid.

“F**k ICE forever.” — Chappell Roan at her show in Pasadena

This is the kinda stuff that the Anti-Trump, pro-humanity folks with money should be running in ads nationally. Trump's admin runs join ICE ads during football, follow them with video of priests getting shot and calling ICE evil and rebuking them in the name of Christ.

Just a reminder, the layoffs in govt were just done out of spite, not necessity

United States Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, flanked by Trump's daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner, get loudly booed in Tel Aviv, Israel as they praise Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Eugenics, all the way down www.usatoday.com/story/news/e...

Trump charges the Secret Service — American taxpayers — millions of dollars so he can play golf at his properties while people who’ve spent their entire lives serving and sacrificing for our country are getting fired. One third of the federal workforce is made up of veterans.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

He doesn't care. None of them do. It's a death cult.

The current US administration is the easiest one so far for Central Asia to work with. Business interests can be used to attract attention & there's no need for demonstrative distancing from Russia or commitment to democratic reforms. @ceip-politika.bsky.social carnegieendowment.org/russia-euras...

this is so so fucked. I don't even know what to say

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

If GOP wants to abolish the filibuster over this, awesome. It helps Rs way more than Ds. It’s also a central reason for loss of faith in government over the last 25 yrs. Rs can reopen the govt tonight if they want. If they want to do it to make sure 15 million lose their health care that’s on them.

Is this the military or is this kindergarten? What's next, demanding your mommy sign a note explaining why you didn't eat your entire MRE?

You've probably seen the photos of the "Arc de Trump," spotted in the Oval Office. Now read our story behind the models — and how initial plans for a temporary, triumphal arch have given way to Trump's desire to build a permanent monument. Scoopy details at @washingtonpost.com:

This shit is crazy because they're just straight up on video hitting a car that was blocked in the street. The extent as to which DHS now just brazenly puts out lies is utterly obscene.

Mamdani: I run against a disgraced former governor who, in this moment, has chosen to issue a statement in which he cannot even say the name Tish James, nor the name Donald Trump. If you cannot say Trump’s name today—how will you stand up to him tomorrow?

As Democrats contemplate a 2026 or 2028 run and wonder what message will most motivate voters, they need to understand that the minimum opening bid is vengeance.

George was just trying to get to work. ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process. This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

This arrest appears to be in direct violation of a temporary restraining order prohibiting DHS officers from arresting journalists. The officers here may well be subject to contempt of court. protectdemocracy.org/wp-content/u...

Three key points: 1) The admin has been planning mass firings to begin in October since February 2) The work necessary to carry out mass firings is illegal during a shutdown, violating the Antideficiency Act, which carries a criminal penalty 3) This harms America, ridding us of talent and expertise

The only way out is to completely and totally dismantle ICE and arrest the majority of them

Washington Supreme Court Justice Mungia has an extraordinary opinion condemning "the underlying racism and prejudices that are woven into the very fabric" of SCOTUS opinions about Native people. "We must clearly, loudly, and unequivocally state that was wrong.” www.courts.wa.gov/opinions/pdf...

So this is the difficulty. Not just how do we get to a deal, but how do we get to a deal we trust will be honored when Johnson is here *promising* to let Trump impound and take back whatever he wants from what they pass?

Hasn't the time arrived for requiring federal prosecutors to present exculpatory evidence to a grand jury. Yes, the GJ only has to find probable cause, like a judge issuing a warrant. But cops requesting a warrant must alert the judge to facts that undermine a finding of PC.

the final boss of "imagine if obama did it"

Farm bankruptcies are back in the news, so it's time to pull this chart out again. Hey look they kept rising during Trump's first term. Then they went way down under Biden. Now they're up again? So weird. Thanks Farm Bureau for the graphic

“we are telling you right now that we do not intend to honor anything we agree to” is certainly a negotiating position one can take

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

Drake sitting there reading about how good the judge thought the song was and how everyone really enjoyed it

There are certain hypotheticals you simply never get to test out. This seems to be an exception. How will a judge and later a jury treat an indictment if you had to fire multiple prosecutors before you could find someone to bring an indictment. I guess we'll find out! www.cnn.com/2025/10/09/p...

getting urinated on would be a less humiliating way to lose a rap battle

Justice Department lawyers reposted President Trump’s statements and may have inadvertently endangered their prosecution of Luigi Mangione, violating the judge’s explicit orders that DOJ employees refrain from public comment about the case. trib.al/b9U7CY1
