NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Arrived to London last night and already against this age verification nonsense.

❗️A classified 🇺🇸US military intelligence report says 🇨🇳China is rapidly expanding its commercial ferry fleet in preparation for an invasion of 🇹🇼Taiwan. The large ocean-going vessels have been modified to carry tanks and participate in amphibious operations.

The alleged shooter in Michigan. Weird that Vance and Patel haven’t tweeted out this info. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽 www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

👌🏻

And now, a public service announcement NOT from the Food & Drug Administration: #tylenol #autism #Trump #RFKJr

"That answer? “No, it doesn’t provide proof”. Because this study isn’t about Tylenol and autism. It’s about Tylenol and ADHD. And honestly, we can legitimately end our review of this paper here" 😂

I need a womenswear gal. Are shoulderpads "in" again? 😬

79. American citizen.

I can't manage to book fixed price Taxi Stockholm either in the app or their website. Does anyone know what's going on (or willing to try and see if they even have this option)?

I used to have such high hopes for this guy. He should just walk himself out of the door for being completely unable to meet this moment.

it is just a straightforward statement of fact to say that the trump administration sees any black student at an elite institution as one too many

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

TED talks are supposed to be meticulously fact-checked. This one was not. And the remarks that falsely claimed that there is an industry profiting from turning the kids trans? they wound up in the final published cut. despite me vociferously telling TED about the issue. bsky.app/profile/lizt...

🦅‼️ Zelensky: Regarding Russia’s attacks against European countries: Russia is testing their ability to defend themselves and trying to influence societies so people begin to ask: “If we can’t protect ourselves, why should we keep supporting Ukraine?” This is intended to reduce assistance to Ukraine.

So many echoes from this article for US politics....

War ravaged Portland

If you say I am a fascist I will bring fascism to America and it will be your fault. by Donald Trump

Bertrand Russell once received letters from Sir Oswald Mosley, the founder of the British Union of Fascists, inviting him to a debate. Russell not only declined but replied quite generally that “nothing fruitful or sincere could ever emerge from association between us.” @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social

I could have done without another Gisslén character piece. But also, please save us from guys who think they are right Our family now sick for over a week because school wants kids to be at school rain or shine, viruses or no viruses, thanks to this type of attitude. Also, this is not herd immunity

And yet Gary Marcus was talking about this for much longer, has more relevant technical background and is a nicer guy, and yes, has a blog (he's barely brought up in the article and only as a credit complainer). Here wishing space was given to less narcissistically minded Cassandras like him.

There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

I really appreciate how Dr. Glaucomflecken has become all of medicine and public health's emotional support ophthalmologist. I sat through 16 hours of ACIP meetings last week. If I do not laugh, I will cry.

“Our study has lessons for public figures and institutions. They, especially politicians, must lead in curbing misinformation, as their misleading statements are quickly amplified by the public”. This was the conclusion of a study of online misinformation, as the U.S. government lies to us daily.

Patel is basically admitting on camera that the FBI no longer adheres to the Attorney General Guidelines, which prohibits investigating U.S. persons based solely on First Amendment activity (including membership in a group).

Yesterday, Meta unveiled a new "feed" on its platforms that will exclusively feature AI-generated videos. This overshadowed another big announcement... On Tuesday, Meta launched a super new PAC geared towards electing politicians that will block any AI regulation. Hello?

The call is coming from inside the house.

Real post on another network:

We used to help countries defend themselves against stuff like this. Under this administration, that help has been stopped. www.cnn.com/2025/09/26/e...

Also the Soviet life in a nutshell. The visible admiration for the government wasn't optional. My dad had to mention the great party in his book introductions. These were math books.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

This is what unity looks like.

6/ This isn’t the first time ProPublica has reported on ICE under Trump 2.0 acting in unprecedented ways. In July, my colleagues @mckenziefunk.com and @nicolefoy.bsky.social documented ~50 incidents of officers shattering car windows to make arrests. projects.propublica.org/trump-ice-sm...

Let's just take a moment to enjoy the fact that @dailymail.co.uk's poll backfired on them yesterday. They wrote a misleading article about Violet Affleck's speech at the UN (she didn't call for a mask mandate), and expected their readers to say 'no' to masks in healthcare. 75% said YES. Love it👏

The MAGA monocultural revolution is so thorough that Hegseth made it a priority to honor soldiers who carried out war crimes in 1890.

Another big move in Trump terror memo that must be explicitly named: expanding from “antifa” to “anti-fascist,” then naming state monopoly on violence—that’s the wonk term for its armed forces—as immune from charges of fascism. To call a cop a fascist, this says, is itself a crime.

I’m at the CGI2025.. here are some stats I just learned Russia and China (together) are funding a $3B propaganda campaign this year alone $100M alone into Moldova election China has filed 50% more scientific patents this year than the US (due to cut funding), next year the ratio will be 1 🇺🇸:10 🇨🇳

Wait what. Is this not a parody?

Someone already bombed some buildings in NY 24 years ago...

After a drone attack on Poland on Sept 9, Russia flew drones into Romania on Sept 13, fighter jets into Estonia on Sept 19, fighter jets over Poland's drills on Sept 20, drones into Denmark, Norway, & Sweden on Sept 23, jammed the Spain's MOD's plane Sept 24, and more drones into Denmark on Sept 25.

I feel like after the Trump's US speech, all the US late night comedians are reinventing demented Brezhnev joke equivalents.

I hope they charge this guy.
