#NOKINGS New York City, NY

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.

2022 — a confession:

DHS says Jose’s a dangerous criminal. So where’s the warrant? ICE tried to snatch him outside his home. No warning, no paperwork. Jose barely made it inside before they started kicking his door. DHS says he’s got a violent record. But local court records say those charges were dismissed. 🧵

Shortly after rump left Alligator Auschwitz, it rained for 45 minutes. The water seeped into the site where they boasted it was ready to withstand the winds of a “high-end” Category 2 hurricane — and streamed all over electrical cables on the floor. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

While Trump is revoking visas, targeting international students, remember that his wife, Melania, came to America on the Einstein visa, a pathway to US permanent residency for individuals with "extraordinary ability" in their field. She was a stripper.

The Dodgers announce they are donating $1 million toward direct financial assistance for families of immigrants impacted by recent events in the region, with more announcements to come.

Meanwhile, in Floriduh... www.miaminewtimes.com/news/floridi...

This was destined to be the metaphor for their relationship.

Keep in mind, this is also now an open fight between the Commander in Chief and one of the biggest and most significant defense contractors in America. Our troops and military will be caught in the middle. America is less safe for it. Putin is thrilled. And our enemies are celebrating.🚨

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

“He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other,” said his husband. ‘King of The Hill’ voice actor Jonathan Joss was murdered in a homophobic hate crime.

Someone referred to Karoline Leavitt as Taco Belle, and I just couldn’t resist.🤭

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

In our entire history only one President got our credit downgraded in both his terms AND got us added to the Human Rights Watch List.

Kamala Harris: So look, some people are describing what's been happening in recent months as absolute chaos. And of course I understand why. And it's certainly true of those tariffs. Tariffs that, as I predicted, are clearly inviting a recession.

If two presidents colluding on TV to resurrect and profit from kidnapping and slavery in the middle of Passover isn't antisemitic I don't know what is. After a Pesach arson. We are in hell.

EXCLUSIVE: Tonight at the Kennedy Center, Guster brought on cast members from Finn, an LGBTQ+ kids musical that was recently canceled when Trump took over the center. They performed the band’s song “Hard Times” to a standing ovation. Full story, exclusive quotes and video on The Handbasket:

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Shout out to Jeffrey Goldberg for reporting on this now instead of waiting two years to put it in a book.

The lives of American troops - and every American life - depends on the people in charge of our government taking their responsibilities seriously. But again and again, including with the incompetence that came to light today, they are demonstrating the opposite. My full interview here:

Soooooo we thinking old Pete was drunk or the job or what? It would be funny, if it wasn’t scary! Maybe we need some DEI (definitely earned it) hires to get this shit together because the incompetence is OVERWHELMINGLY problematic.

Leaked audio of JD Vance in a jealous rant… Let’s just say JD Vance is no fan of Elon Musk and thinks he makes him look bad. But the truth is—Trump and Vance don’t need Elon to make them look bad.

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person. I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

Brown University Professor and Doctor Are Deported to Lebanon Despite a Judge’s Order - The New York Times www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/u...

It’s unreal - the DOD deleted its page for Charles Calvin Rodgers, a Medal of Honor recipient who was wounded three times while defending against three assaults on his base in Vietnam. Now the URL includes “DEI Medal of Honor.” There’s something about Rodgers I don’t even have to tell you

Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

This week I left The Washington Post after 40 years, 6 months and 6 days. Today I have a piece in the New Yorker explaining my heart-breaking decision, and including the column that was spiked. I wish I never had to write it. www.newyorker.com/news/essay/w...

Stock market crash, SpaceX crash, Twitter crash.

Forget buying Greenland—how about making Washington D.C. the 51st state instead? More Americans live there, and last I checked, they actually want to join. 🤷‍♂️🤷🤷‍♀️ #StatehoodNow #DCStatehood

Dear Congresswoman @aoc.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/pMMIF...

Stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

BIG NEWS 🎉 Equality Florida Institute has won the 2025 Champion for Children Award from the National Association of School Psychologists! 🧵

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

I'd like to bring this multimillion-dollar photo-op to the attention of Elon Musk and DOGE. Instead of firing food inspectors and air traffic controllers and cancelling critical medical research at NIH, stop this outrageous waste of our people's tax dollars!
