Most of Dem Senators did not attack Bondi yesterday as they should have. Among other things they should have said, "You're lying again, Ms. Bondi" and "That's a bald-faced lie, Ms. Bondi." The rapid rise of authoritarianism is no place for etiquette.

Cuz the $75 billion allocated to ICE is apparently not enough for incompetent administrators to perform their function.

Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire deal that's intended to end to the devastating Gaza war which unleashed the deadliest fighting ever between Israelis and Palestinians.

"Trump’s anti-anti-fascism orders distort not just words like terrorism, violence, and fascism, but also the law, how the federal government is organized, and what the Constitution establishes as the foundational principles of this country."

282 Ex DOJ officials open letter: “We believe it’s our duty to sound the alarm about this administration’s degradation of DoJ’s vital work, and its assault on the public servants who do it” www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/e...

Let me be clear: It’s ILLEGAL to deny federal workers back pay after a shutdown. There’s a 2019 law that guarantees it, but Trump is once again trying to break the law. You don’t get to punish people for doing their jobs just because you’re failing at yours.

Just so it's clear, voting for Trump includes rubber stamping his agenda. All of you saying, "I didn't vote for this," are sadly mistaken. You voted for it all. They wrote their agenda all down in a book called 'Project 2025.' You drank the cool aid, beloved. Now democracy dies. Congrats.

The top federal prosecutor reviewing the trumped-up case against New York Attorney General Letitia James has reportedly decided not to bring charges. Elizabeth Yusi told colleagues that she sees no probable cause to believe James engaged in mortgage fraud. Prosecutors expect her to be fired.

The adherents of white supremacy making policy in the Trump Administration frame their policy making as the preservation of White privilege, but what it really amounts to is murder-suicide. Blowing up the Affordable Care Act doesn't help whitefolks. It makes care harder to access for everyone.

It's the first Monday in October which means the Supreme Court is back in session. Here's my preview of all the cruelty and evil they will visit upon us this term. My *cover story* in @thenation.com :) www.thenation.com/article/soci...

HAPPENING NOW — This morning, Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order establishing “ICE-free zones.” “That means that city property and unwilling private businesses will no longer serve as grounds for these raids,” Johnson said to applause. thetriibe.com/2025/10/mayo...

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

Newsom to sue over Trump sending California National Guard to Oregon www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Gov. Pritzker: "[ICE is] just picking up people who are brown and black and then checking their credentials. I don't know about you, but I don't carry around papers that say I'm a U.S. citizen. So U.S. citizens are getting detained and arrested."

Again, Kavanaugh justified racial profiling by claiming that this doesn't happen--a justification that becomes more preposterous with each passing day as Trump's goons terrorize more people based on the color of their skin ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/brett...

Presidents? SCOTUS gives them immunity. Corporations? SCOTUS makes it easier for them to pollute. Billionaires? SCOTUS says they can buy elections. But if you look Latino, speak Spanish, or work at a low wage job, SCOTUS says you can be abducted by masked agents. The legacy of the Roberts court.

Again, Republicans are not simply our political opponents. They're enemies of the state and a threat to democracy. We have to sit with that reality for a long while to effectively fight back against the danger they pose.

P. Diddy sentenced to four years in prison. It's bullshit, but at least it's something.

Donald Trump wanted a shutdown. Republicans gave it to him because they don’t care about doing what they were elected to do. They don’t want to serve the people, lower health costs, or do *anything* to make life easier for everyday Americans.
