Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ. We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights. Help us win this fight by chipping in at katforillinois.com/legal

This is the third U.S. Attorney found to be unlawfully appointed. The other two are Sigal Chattah and Alina Habba. Their indictments stand because they were signed by other prosecutors. Not true for Lindsey Halligan.

If you love Jamaican food, music, culture - if you love wining to dancehall at carnival or getting high to reggae music or watching JA in the Olympics please be ready to donate to the humanitarian assistance JA is going to so desperately need 🙏🏽 Jamaica gives the world so much, please give back 🇯🇲

This is no time for play, This is no time for fun, There is work to be done....

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation. Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Wait until he hears that Reagan didn't trust the Russians.

If the people rise up to oppose and challenge this regime of Fascism, what are the chances enemy state supporters won't come to their aid? Would there really be a Red Dawn moment?

I just realized last night we had amazing auroral beads over Fairbanks before a nice substorm. Do you know about auroral beads? They appear as a kind of "picket fence" along an auroral arc right before it rapidly intensifies.

New market manipulation scheme just dropped

Imprisoned journalists Andrzej Poczobut from Belarus and Mzia Amaglobeli from Georgia have been awarded the European Parliament's 2025 Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

I wonder if Michael Cera and Jonah Hill have considered remaking "City Slickers"?

Three high schoolers founded a book club that reads some of the country's most frequently banned books after a state law removing books with sexual content was signed in 2023. Two years later, many of the books have been reshelved and parts of the law can't be enforced.

There is no AI, do not trust the lying hallucinating device that resorts to making things up in some cases. Get an encyclopedia, use vetted sources, stop their data center environmental rampage. Shut them down.

This went live last night - a big PDF bundle of the books I've written at Image. Includes The Wicked + the Divine, DIE, Phonogram, Ludocrats, the first Power Fantasy, We called them giants, etc. Basically, this is the stuff I got into comics to do, and a great chance to grab it.

“CDC is over. It was killed. This administration only knows how to break things. They have made America at risk for outbreaks and attacks by nefarious players. People should be scared,” said Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, former director of the CDC’s National Center on Immunization and Respiratory Diseases

Thanks to everyone who's been reposting my stuff. Remember in the early days of social media when we'd be so excited by what we saw that we'd retweet it? That's since fallen off as we've gotten used to it, but that's how we leverage the power of SM. Please help me reach a wider audience

is remembering Lester Dent on his birthday. The creator and main author of the series of novels about the scientist and adventurer known as Doc Savage.

Nice recap

An elevator pitch for a new book came to me right after my SweCon kaffeeklatch: "In the year 2000, Earth was taken over by a consortium of Bond villains. "Then, in 2025, a lone mild-mannered librarian decided to take it back …" Think it could sell?

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles. You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

“The Founders would never believe that it would ever come to pass that one state militia could be sent to another state for the purposes of political retribution” THAT PART! Thank you, Judge Perry.

I can't sleep. My hands are too dry.

Been seeing lots of posts about how shows dropping entire seasons at a time has ruined...something. Seems like a marketing campaign from big streamers before they pivot to weekly releases exclusively.

Ya'll should watch this, it's important. youtu.be/asojiVtJ7F0?...

When I wrote this book last year, I couldn't have imagined the fight for the things we love would be so fierce and that there would be so much we were on the verge of losing. If you could use some encouragement, I'd be honored if you'd check it out! johnpavlovitz.com/worth-fighti...

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

So wait its now... Illegal - Forgiving loans Legal - Selling loans against the agreement of the term of the loan If this happens, Students with these loans need to sue. They got into the agreement with the understanding it was with the federal government, not a private market bloodsuckers.

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement? The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy. At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

Do not fall for secessionist propaganda or “Texas is invading Illinois”! Pay attention to who is saying this, who is screwing you over, and what their end goal is.

If congress is shut down that should automatically mean the population also does not work ala a general strike.

Bonta: Just minutes before the hearing, we got word that the Texas National Guard has been federalized. We asked the judge to issue a broad order — one that applies to every National Guard unit in every state — stating that none of them can be deployed to Oregon. She issued that order

"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944

I keep thinking of these four shows that aired before the 2016 election and how combined they presaged so much that happened: 1) Scandal 2) Mr Robot 3) UnREAL 4) The Americans

At what point will US citizens be able to apply for asylum in other countries? Is it now?

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov
