Jack keeps doubling down on his support for an adviser who made antisemitic and homophobic comments. And oh by the way, Jack voted against legalizing same-sex marriage. His record and the people he surrounds himself with tell a very clear story. www.nj.com/politics/202...

Trump invited nearly every Republican senator to the White House on Tuesday for what was billed as a “Rose Garden Club” lunch. And they all left with *grift bags. #governmentshutdown

Calling @radiofreetom.bsky.social to the Bat-Phone

The Atlantic’s journalists will not sign the Pentagon’s press policy. Statement here from editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg:

tl:dr The DOJ is desperate for evidence to support their case. The evidence they should have had BEFORE indicting. ... but as we know from Trump's DMs to Bondi that he sent TO THE ENTIRE WORLD on Truth Social, HE wanted Comey indicted no matter what. www.newsweek.com/trump-admin-...

@olbermann.bsky.social - good to see Bari Weiss is upholding the standard of spelling at CBS. www.cbsnews.com/video/some-n...

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. trib.al/9Sxu9IN

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

"Trump says he will talk to DOJ about Maxwell pardon" : www.reuters.com/world/us/tru... "U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday left the door open to a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of helping the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein...."

When will Trump tariff subtitles?

Now #Trump wants to tariff movies

A convicted felon and adjudicated sex offender says what? #trump #gaslighting #convictedfelon.

@wconcerthall.bsky.social greetings - just an fyi, the Danish National Sym concert on Thu Sept 25 is not yet listed on your site: www.dr.dk/lyd/p2/2025-...

@olbermann.bsky.social - you called it www.cnbc.com/2025/09/22/d...

The #DepartmentofDefense is NOT rebranding. They are adopting a "secondary title for the Department of Defense". They are effectively *identifying* as the Department of War. 😄 #DepartmentofDefense #DepartmentOfWar

@wconcerthall.bsky.social - just an fyi - the Elbphilharmonie program being audio streaming today will be performed again tomorrow (Sept 6) and will be video streamed. www.elbphilharmonie.de/en/mediatheq...

@jeffjarvis.bsky.social just in case you hadn't already read about this. "This is grounded in the assertion that a website’s HTML/CSS is a protected computer program that an ad blocker intervenes .... constituting unlawful reproduction and modification." www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/legal/m...

It took him over four years, but he finally figured out how to contact the National Guard. #trump #jan6 #insurrection

some personal news: it's my first day as a senior investigative reporter @consumerreports.org !! i'm joining CR's kick-ass Special Projects team, which has a storied history of producing powerful investigations that change laws and save lives (literally!) i'm so excited to get started!

Here is video of Trump saying today that Jerome Powell is a terrible Fed Chairman and and that he (Trump) is surprised he was ever appointed. Followed by video from 2017 of Trump announcing, during his first term, Powell's appointment. #DonaldTrump #Jeromepowell #memory

@jeffjarvis.bsky.social - given your various writings about magazines I wonder if you have seen the Ms magazine documentary on HBO, and what your impressions are.

In 2020 during an interview with Hannity Trump said "you don't have to drop bombs on everyone"

Trump suggesting the title Secretary of Defense be changed to Secretary of War because "we feel like warriors".

Did LAPD block ICE from entering Dodger Stadium property? It seems that way.

@stephruhle.bsky.social - lots of legitimate talk about the impact of illegal workers being removed from businesses. My question to you - why are the owners/employers not being punished as well? Why is Trump not promising legal consequences for them too? They've broken the law too. #immigration

"Republicans uncover no new intel on Biden during hearing on his cognitive abilities in office" The GOP would rather do anything than govern.

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social - check your fb page; I shared a link to today's politics chat: www.facebook.com/events/12147...

Hello @wconcerthall.bsky.social - sharing this in case you'd want to include it in your schedule: www.facebook.com/ndrelbphilha...

"Commander In Chief" for a fifth year now, and still trying to work out salutes

Some of the funniest moments in television history could be accredited to this man. Rest in peace, George.

Tune in at 1am ET. Here's a little information on the education end of things to get you started. joycevance.substack.com/p/graduation...

Great question

@bsky.app Oh - and this image is nearly identical to the commonly used graphic to indicated "settings".

Oh, come on @bsky.app . Now icons rather than the unambiguous words "Home", etc. And, with the new cool icons, no pop-up tool tips to let us know which one does what?

Consider: To use this plane as AF1, it would have to be torn down to the rivets, modified beyond recognition, then reassembled with all-new avionics, power plants, wiring, interior and coms. AF1 isn't just a fancy plane, it's a flying fortress. And we'd need TWO. www.reuters.com/world/us/whi...

Greetings @wconcerthall.bsky.social ! I'm looking at the Mahler Festival schedule. Tell me if I'm misreading, but it may be that the start time of NPO's broadcast of Mahler 2 on May 10 begins at 17:00 UTC rather than WCH's listed 18:15. www.npoklassiek.nl/uitzendingen...

Man Trump is such a fool

Ah yes... Pope Felonious, the first of his name.

URGENT: This morning in Western NY, federal immigration agents stopped a bus of farm workers from Lynn-Ette & Sons Farms. They had a list of names, including UFW worker leaders who have been organizing to unionize their workplace. Those workers were detained.

BREAKING: We're suing the Trump administration to protect Head Start, which provides early education, childcare, and other services for low-income children and their families. President Trump doesn’t have the authority to dismantle this vital program.

In recognition of the 100 days, Skye Perryman and @mjsdc.bsky.social remind us that losing and losing and losing in court matters for a whole lot of reasons. Courageous lawyers and judges are getting results, every day, and we are grateful.
