NEW: Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old who ICE agents in Minneapolis nabbed last week and shipped off to a Texas detention facility with his dad, is now in poor health, his school superintendent told me today www.huffpost.com/entry/liam-c...

This is insanity. Anyone with a brain can see they're going to try to create false "evidence" of voter fraud. The FBI is corrupt.

Because nothing bad ever came from lowering safety standards..

EU opens investigation into X over Grok sexualised imagery, lawmaker says reut.rs/3NCZU2W

Some social media posts tried to warp the evidence of the killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, including in ways intended to support the Trump administration’s narrative about it.

A federal judge in Minnesota will consider an extraordinary legal question on Monday: Can a deployment of federal law enforcement officers be so dangerous and so intrusive that it violates a state’s sovereignty under the 10th Amendment? Here's what to know.

"The administration is urging Americans to reject the evidence of their eyes and ears. Ms. Noem and Mr. Bovino are lying in defiance of obvious truths. They are lying in the manner of authoritarian regimes that require people to accept lies as a demonstration of power."

The Trump administration's claim that recording ICE agents is “illegal” is unconstitutional and dangerous to democracy. Documenting government actions is not a crime. It is a cornerstone of the First Amendment Read the letter we signed with 12 other rights organizations: ncac.org/news/free-ex...

The federal government is openly embracing white nationalist online content — including in a recruitment post after Jonathan Ross killed Renee Good.

This is government for business, not a government for the people.

While it's harder to erase history when it was filmed by so many directly involved, they're sure trying hard. Good thing we have journalists dedicated to preserving a record of this disgraceful day.

This is disgusting and needs to be getting more attention.

Sure looks like inventing a problem that doesn't exist to continue to push women out of certain roles.

Attempting to punish and intimidate people for speaking the truth now. This is entirely outrageous.

The number of recorded measles cases in the U.S. during 2025 has exceeded 2,000 for the first time in more than 30 years, according to data from the CDC.

The richest man on earth, the richest man in human history, personally obliterated the US agency that had been preventing these horrors. He sneered that he had to miss some good parties in order to spend his weekend erasing the agency these people had depended on. Inhuman.

Kennedy Center changed board rules months before vote to add Trump’s name so only presidentially appointed board members could vote. Seriously wtf?

This was corporate censorship of the media pure and simple. Really disappointing to see what's happening at CBS News but nice to see that the experienced journalists over there spoke out - they, and we, need to keep at it.

Interesting interview with the Vanity Fair photographer, Christopher Anderson: "I go in not with the mission of making someone look good or bad." "I go in wanting to make an image that truthfully portrays what I witnessed at the moment that I had that encounter with the subject." This is art.

The Vanity Fair photographer from the Susie Wiles story. Holy. Shit. www.washingtonpost.com/style/power/...

"Europe is framed almost exclusively in terms of demographic decline and political malaise." This is what you get when American right-wing culture war determines foreign policy.

One citizen said that federal agents in Idaho pointed guns at her children, ages 6 and 8, and dragged her 14-year-old daughter out of a truck and zip-tied her. The mother told investigators that an agent threatened to “fucking blow your head off.” By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

Breaking News: A Hong Kong court found Jimmy Lai, a media mogul and notable critic of Beijing, guilty in a landmark national security trial.

Atlanta: the 16th worst city for traffic jams in the world. It's almost like highway expansion + adding express lanes isn't working. 🤔

What in the white supremacy? Are we in the Bad Place?

Taken together, the actions of the Trump administration in the wake of the National Guard shooting represent some of the most significant changes to immigration policy since he regained office. w/ @haleaziz.bsky.social + Allison McCann www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/u...

This is all idiotic. Shame on everyone who enabled these anti-science grifters. We will be an even sicker nation as a result.

In Opinion President Trump’s plan to defund the Department of Education “echoes attacks by conservatives after the Civil War,” Anthony Conwright writes. “He has joined the fight against federal oversight of education as the latest steward of the Confederacy’s endeavor to preserve oligarchy.”

1) Inflammatory claims about health care without supporting evidence will result in deaths. 2) Sadly, since extremist anti-science ideologues took over our FDA, its claims have lost all credibility. 3) Over 1,300 children died of COVID itself (NOT the vaccine), during Aug. 2021–Jul. 2022 alone.

In 2024, Romania, an upper middle income European country, had over 30,000 cases — putting it on the world's top ten measles list. Its vaccination rate hovers around 60%. How did this happen?

This is what we get when U.S. health policy is based on cherry-picked anecdotal evidence from a self-selected sample - if the VARS system is even where they're pulling so called data. No methodology or peer reviewed study has been released. We can't trust these people.

"Someone pregnant requires and deserves diligent care untainted by fear or ideology — or interfered with by Supreme Court justices and state legislators practicing medicine without a license." Heartbreaking. This didn't have to happen.

No justice to be seen. It feels really crappy to see a fascist crook get away with so much with no consequences.

DACA was created to shield recipients, commonly referred to as “Dreamers,” from immigration arrests and deportation. It also allows them to legally work in the U.S. Recipients reapply every two years. https://to.pbs.org/3Xkiw9A

"Georgia prosecutor ends 2020 election interference case against Trump, allies" What a load of crap. Just let him get away with everything with zero consequences.

Public media stations have already announced closures. More will follow unless Congress restores local station funding. bit.ly/47uslGq

This is cool and makes a lot of sense. Why waste energy on extra pixels you won't even notice?

"The letter sent by the American Civil Liberties Union cites accounts from pregnant women who say they were shackled while being transported, placed in solitary confinement for multiple days and given insufficient food and water while detained in Louisiana and Georgia." Horrific.

Now we have UPS job cuts. Somehow feeling more and more like the burgeoning AI industry is artificially propping up the markets, doesn't it?

Hundreds of Georgia jobs gone. Also they shifted a factory in Michigan from EV back to combustion vehicles. 😞

The brutality. The corruption. The lies. Everything is on full display — and many Americans are beginning to learn an important lesson. Watch.

In agreement with Andrew Zimmern. Sometimes the conveniences we've become accustomed to have consequences and we need to adjust. (My family mainly uses stainless steel pots/pans and they're great!)

They're putting Reels and DMs as the 2nd and 3rd main tabs. I guess I'm old but - meh. DMs?

Continuing the theme of poor ethics and corruption...

Pay attention -- what he means is allowing Democrats to win a free and fair election.

The White House said on Tuesday it will submit plans for President Donald Trump's $250 million White House ballroom project to a body that oversees federal building construction, even though demolition work began earlier this week reut.rs/4ndTcfL

Just - the ethics of this. The conflict of interest of the president accepting money from corporations for his vanity project.

Watching the White House’s beautiful East Wing being leveled by bulldozers and seeing decades of our nation’s rich history crumbling in a few senseless seconds, it’s impossible not to see it as a microcosm of what has been happening for the last ten months. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/stopping-t...

A vigilante revenge spree to get people fired for speech you judge as distasteful doesn't seem very Christian. 🤷‍♀️ This world is crazy right now.

On Tuesday, shortly after the New York Times reported that President Donald Trump is demanding $230 million from the DOJ, the president claimed he would donate any such funds to charity. His effort to put a spin on this blatant grift belies Trump’s long, sordid history of stiffing contractors.
