The people around Donald Trump are taking advantage of his diminished capacity to break the law. Whatever they do now, we won’t forget — and we will hold them accountable.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

"Those efforts have been complicated by the fact that major hedge funds, including those led by friends of Mr. Bessent, stand to benefit financially from an Argentina economic lifeline." www.nytimes.com/2025/10/09/u...

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

I’ve seen the pictures of Trump with Epstein’s girls. Here’s what’s in them - @michaelwolffnyc.bsky.social

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

This little twerp, who’s been there a few months, axed two of the lions of WaPo?? Fisher is an investigative champion and had been at The Post for 39 years. Hoffman had been there for 42, and he won a Pulitzer LAST YEAR.

I’m still so high on life after seeing Chappell Roan live this weekend. The whole event was pure joy. I’m so glad she did this in KC. The whole city was poppin’ out in pink.

I recently went to British Columbia and only saw US liquor in stock in one hotel bar and surely that's because they didn't want to just dump it. Other than that we saw zero American wines or liquor for sale anywhere. Turns out BC is making some great wines, just like Washington and Oregon.

Goddam @nytimes.com headline writers! It's not "politics" that threatens these projects. It's the naked abuse of the power of the purse by a small-minded, vindictive president. Stop the sanewashing while you still have a newspaper to publish in! www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/n...

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years. From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

I was sent this by a Georgian this morning. 2025 premiums vs 2026 premiums for someone making $65k a year. Republicans in Washington did this. This is what I'm fighting to stop. This is what’s at stake in this shutdown fight.

This makes zero sense.

“I’m emotionally shellshocked right now,” said one professor in the Texas Tech system. “What does it say about academic freedom? It says we don’t have it.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/u...

NEW: Kristi Noem has been widely criticized for slowing down FEMA's response to natural disasters. But she fast-tracked $11 million+ to fix a Florida tourist attraction — after one of her big donors reached out. www.propublica.org/article/kris...

Out of fucking control and if I were an elected Dem or running for office I’d be in front of every camera I could find telling America your prescriptions just got twice as expensive, your health insurance premiums are about to skyrocket from ACA subsidy cancellation, and oh the gov shuts down Wed.

got some bad news for anyone who voted for Trump because he promised to bring down prices www.ft.com/content/dd6d...

So they stole it

This does not appear to have been violence against ICE. Early reports are that the victims were detainees.

Adelita Grijalva is projected to win a special election for Arizona’s 7th District. She will be the first Latina to represent the state in Congress. https://bit.ly/47ZjyhE

Let’s be clear: what Trump is calling "unserious and ridiculous" is our proposal to prevent a 75% HIKE in health care premiums for millions and stop him from illegally withholding funds for national priorities.  He would rather shut down the government. A Mad King.

Spotted on the DC Metro today! @propublica.org

Call me old fashioned, but aren’t both parts of this relationship currently, uh, married to other people?

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

All headlines just from today 🇺🇸

MSNBC: In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now Trump's border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents win government contracts in a second Trump admin. Trump's DOJ just shut down the investigation into Homan's actions.

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

No evidence of association between Charlie Kirk shooting and left-wing groups so far, according to officials. Interesting chart here in the NBC piece of ideology and domestic terrorism, 70% comes from far-right groups. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

National Press Club President Mike Balsamo on the Pentagon demanding reporters sign a pledge that they won't gather information that isn't authorized for release: "This is a direct assault on independent journalism at the very place where independent scrutiny matters most: the U.S. military."

And Trump, Vance and every GOP Senator who voted for him are objectively all of these too Including feckless Susan Collins

The suspect who killed Charlie Kirk said his rifle-cartridge messages were all "a big meme," according to messages just released in court. "if I see 'notices bulge uwu' on fox new I might have a stroke," he said. So, yeah, it was all a shitpost. More here on the meanings: bsky.app/profile/drew...

"US Tiktok users would be asked to shift to new app" controlled by Trump friends Oracle and Andreessen Horowitz. Good fuckin' luck with that.

DO NOT RSVP FOR A PROTEST, ESPECIALLY NOW. SERIOUSLY.

This is as frightening a speech as we've seen yet from the administration. Donald Trump refused to condemn the assassination of a Democrats & jokes about assassination attempts on Dems. His entire political career he's actively encouraged violence against his opponents. That is the backdrop here.

Notice he’s slipping in the idea of creating favorable taxation policy for politically favorable people and organizations. It’s not the most overtly dangerous thing he’s saying, but I can hardly think of an idea more corrosive to a free society.

Fox News: Democrats and the left need to tone down the rhetoric and stop demonizing the right. Also Fox News: Jasmine Crockett is "an attention whore" who "does not know what she is talking about" and is "pretty sick."

Opinion | I’ve dedicated my career to promoting free speech on college campuses. Here’s why the murder of a red state college dropout by another red state college dropout means it’s time to fire liberal professors in blue states.

Pay attention. Something dark might be coming. The murder of Charlie Kirk could have united Americans to confront political violence. Instead, Trump and his anti-democratic radicals look to be readying a campaign to destroy dissent. 1/ Here's what's happening.

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

man they really didn't give a shit about that guy. as soon as it was clear they couldn't use his death to launch a purge they started to treat it like a nothingburger

Red flag in this wasteful move: a USAID spox falsely claimed that birth control pills, IUDs, and arm implants cause abortions. “The administration will no longer supply abortifacient birth control under the guise of foreign aid.” 🚩🚩🚩

so charlie kirk was assassinated by exactly the kind of terminally-online channer shithead he tried to foment

Struck me as an odd reference and I guess it was.

This is the biggest story in America right now. Coffee up 20.9% year-over-year Steaks up 16.6% Apples up 9.6% Bananas, 6.6%. www.axios.com/2025/09/11/t...

This also counts as political violence.

So like just after we published this, the 4th Circuit held a hearing where a bunch of judges (including famously conservative ones) are just going out and out with "wtf is wrong with the supreme court, why are they doing this nonsense to us?") www.politico.com/news/2025/09...
