😍 Boston, you are beautiful. #NoKings

this is truly invaluable reporting

Bessent’s friends have huge investments in Argentina. Elon Musk does too. Bessent is sending $40 billion of our money to Argentina with more to come. There is zero oversight. Congress not involved. One unelected man is sending a fortune to Argentina and nobody will stop him,

Thugs. And we're paying for them.

Congress could, at any time, stop this shitshow by telling Vought to end the RIFs and impoundments. It has very clear institutional reasons to do so. But obeying to Trump rules all, and instead the Speaker of the House will pretend he does not know what is happening while opining on Bad Bunny.

The end of federal enforcement of special ed laws. Some states - including MN - will likely be ok. But a lot of disabled kids in a lot of states are going to lose the education that federal law and decades of jurisprudence say they are owed.

EL PASO — a family says ICE showed up at their house looking for migrants and shot and KILLED THEIR DOG, then didn’t help them as the agent ran away and was not identified. kfoxtv.com/news/local/e...

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs: 1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt? 2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies? 3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

we lost a queen 👑

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation

They are stealing taxpayer dollars from blue states because Democrats in Congress refuse to give Trump a blank check for his authoritarianism. Corruption. Coercion. Blackmail. Lawlessness.  I won’t bend the knee to a wannabe dictator and his cronies. We will prevail.

Of all the best and kindest humans to ever live, Jane Goodall is near the top of my list. Rest in Peace, you beautiful soul. On behalf of the earth, I thank you www.nytimes.com/2025/10/01/o...

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

79. American citizen.

When the President uses federal law enforcement for his personal revenge, it puts all of us in danger.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

This is terrifying! bsky.app/profile/duck...

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

NEW THIS MORNING: Trump administration asks Supreme Court to allow the administration to unilaterally withhold $4 billion in foreign aid funding that was approved by Congress: www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

Right up until the minute Trump’s business ventures like Trump Shuttle, Trump Atlantic City casinos, Trump Steaks, Trump University, etc, etc, went bankrupt, Trump was claiming they were a huge success with big things right around the corner. Just like now with the economy.

100 VICTIMS is astounding. Even more astounding, that's less than 10% of Epstein and Maxwell's victims.

Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif has been killed in an Israeli attack on a tent for journalists outside Al-Shifa hospital.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all: “If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.” Israel just killed him.

Wake up, people!

Today is the day that Trump was supposed to impose tough new sanctions on Russia if they didn’t agree to a cease fire.

The next part of the plan to steal the midterms and/or the 2028 election - an attempt to do a mid-decade census to take seats and electoral votes away from blue states. I knew this was coming.

Law firms, universities, media companies, and now banks. If people don’t understand what’s happening to our country, it’s because they don’t want to.

The President of the United States thinks it is acceptable to use ballistic-missile submarines like toys, objects to be waved around when he wants to distract the public or deflect from bad news, or merely because some Russian official has annoyed him. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Pretty soon all economic and jobs data released by the federal government will be handwritten with a black Sharpie

Sitting judges targeted for impeachment or misconduct complaints by the Trump admin are speaking out publicly — some for the very 1st time — because the danger to judicial independence, they say, is now “unprecedented” and growing terrifyingly and intimately violent. www.huffpost.com/entry/judges...

Grassley even heard personally from 7 DOJ employees who confirmed that Erez Reuveni was a trustworthy and honorable man. And he went along with it anyway. Corruption pays.

His name is Mohammad Al-Motawaq. He is 18 months old. And he is starving in Gaza www.npr.org/2025/07/27/g...

Her name was Diana. She was 23 years old and 7 months pregnant. Russia murdered her today in an attack on the maternity hospital in Kamyanske.

Turns out the best way to make a deal to get out of your child sex trafficking conviction is to have one of your clients get elected president.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “Every single Democrat and Republican in Congress has a moral responsibility to pressure Israel to let aid into Gaza… THIS IS MADNESS. We are running out of words to describe it. And the people on Gaza are running out of time.” (ht: @thetnholler.bsky.social)

Reposting this and a few other things for no particular reason today. Maybe I’ll do it tomorrow and the next day, too.
