He goes on to describe one of his officers being stopped when she was off-duty solely because she's non-white, harassed by ICE goons who slapped her phone out of her hand as she tried to record, only to be let go when she finally revealed she was a cop.

We all need to be able to tell our future selves, and anyone else: we did not stay silent!

“No evidence” There’s plenty of evidence.

The killing of an American citizen by masked immigration enforcement agents is almost enough to make you forget Epstein or Venezuela or the fact that we just passed the anniversary of January 6. But you know, it's possible to remember all of it at once

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

Northwestern’s Trump deal harms students and faculty by gutting research, abandoning Gaza justice, and giving $75 million to the Trump regime. Throwing your campus under the bus isn’t leadership — it’s cowardice. Hold NU accountable and demand they stand with their community over Trump.

Q: You said that second strike was in accordance with the law of armed conflict, but the Navy's own manual says that firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime LEAVITT: I would reiterate that the strike was conducted in accordance with the law of armed conflict

We have posted this New Yorker's cartoon several times in the last 13 years... it gets only more relevant and infuriating with the passage of time. We are, collectively, a species of idiots.

Thou shalt not pretend that you’re at war with drug traffickers while pardoning drug traffickers.

WHAT THE FUCK

And I am the princess of Westerlos!

EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN CONGRESS should be pressed about Trump calling for their colleagues to be killed

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Bless the Epstein survivors for speaking out! Justice! NOW!

I still hold Mitch McConnell responsible for starting Congress down this deeply corrupt path, and for corrupting the Supreme Court. #specialplaceinhellformitch

Americans still don't realize how bad it has gotten and how much worse it is going to get. Immense destruction, pain and suffering, and we're not even at the tip of it.

Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.

The big tech founder who has a 256-foot $75 million superyacht to "shadow" his 417-foot $500 million superyacht, because the bigger yacht lacks a helipad, is very worried about his newspaper's financials

Balaji (a close associate of Thiel & Andreessen) leads the “network state” movement, which encourages tech elites to build their own “countries” by acquiring physical territory w/in host countries & building “parallel institutions” to replace existing ones in media, education, finance, & science 1/

Spotify is running ICE ads. I went to cancel on mobile and saw that this isn’t allowed on mobile. They make you cancel on desktop. You think that’s gonna stop me, Spotify? I will erase you and forget you ever existed. THOU SHALT CANCEL SPOTIFY!!!

I scrolled through the @1stforall.bsky.social's gallery of print front pages for local coverage of "No Kings" protests. Here are some of the standout papers, starting with the Daily Sentinel of Grand Junction, Colorado:

Republicans: Stop calling us Nazi fascists! Also Republicans: Anyone who disagrees with us should be sent to a gas chamber.

They have GONE. TOO. FAR. They’ve attacked peaceful protestors, put the military in our streets, defunded scientists, threatened our schools, defied our courts, deported Americans, disappeared people, attacked civil rights, and slashed services. #nokings #nokingsseattle #seattle #nokingsinamerica

Trump ignores a question from a woman reporter but says, "I just like to watch her talk. Good job. Thank you darling."

If you’re a man in the room and a public official says this about your female colleague, you don’t continue as if nothing happened.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Schiff is really good at this.

"So, Democrats have three words for this: no fucking way. It's literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow up our health care system." This is, hands down, the best comms work Chuck Schumer has done in YEARS. Surprisingly good.
