The FBI director was partying at the Olympics and allegedly sent this message — about the person killed by government officials at Mar-a-Lago — literally as the hockey final was tied and going into overtime. Did he even know about it, let alone approve or send it?

The Director of the FBI on a "work trip" on the day someone went to Mar-A-Lago with a gun because of the Epstein files.

That it’s hard to tell whether those moments were included at the insistence of Bari Weiss or if it’s just normal centrist media bothsidesing is a lot of how we got here. But all in all 60 Minutes gives a resounding NO on the question of whether “white genocide” is happening in South Africa.

The biggest "no shit" in the world.

This is the 3rd Trump supporter that's tried to kill him.

In case you thought that John Barron call was actually real

The fifth grader needed to pack a suitcase and go with her dad to U.S. Border Patrol’s Spokane headquarters. Once there, she and her dad were fingerprinted. From there, the Guatemalan asylum-seekers would be taken to the Dilley Immigration Processing Center.

For an administration that claims to care about women's sports, it's noted they didn't do anything after the Women's gold medal game.

More pointing fingers at corporations whose only responsibility is making money for shareholders regardless of trickle down consequences like the destruction of the environment and exploitation of labor.

I got so mad reading that the parents and play therapist jumped to assuming Alexa was abused by her mother rather than recognizing that she was TRAUMATICALLY SEPARATED FROM HER MOM after a long, exhausting travel to the US.

Israel has been dumping herbicides throughout southern Lebanon as part of a concerted ecocide campaign to render the region uninhabitable. This has been going on for months with Lebanese journalists & environmentalists regularly reporting on it. The BBC: we don’t know why the Israelis are doing it

If you hear people complaining, remind them that Dems offered to split out ICE and CPB and fund everything else, including TSA. Republicans said no.

This means I literally could not teach my subject (African politics) at the institution at which I earned my PhD.

The fact that I'm sitting here on a Sunday morning, trying to parse if this is Trump or an impressive prank says so much about how batshit reality is right now.

This is somewhere between 40-50% of deployable US air power (and it’s still growing). On a scale with the Gulf Wars.

Look at this: Military hardware being shipped to the Middle East. Looks like 9 C-17 transport on the way. This goes beyond flexing.

5/ A new photo from the scene of the bombings in central Lviv. To repeat this was NOT a missile or drone attack. Explosions came from within - either grenades or explosive charges/mines set to detonate, possibly via saboteurs.

❗️Screams of people and a large number of special services at the scene of the explosion in Lviv

⚠️Terrorist attack just now in Lviv, Ukraine , city mayor says. 3 big explosions. There are killed and wounded .

This kind of mad king behavior is exactly why the Constitution put Congress in charge of declaring war

A Fatal ICE Shooting Occurred in Texas Months Before Renee Good’s Killing A 23-year-old American was shot last March in South Padre Island. ICE’s involvement in the shooting was not disclosed until this week.

THREAD 🧵Our investigation and public pressure, has brought significant consequences for those associated with Jeffrey Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell domestically and abroad. We want to keep the public informed about some of the consequences individuals have faced. Our work is just getting started.

Highly recommend watching Alysa Liu's gold-metal free skating performance. Even if you know nothing about the technical aspects, there's no way not to get caught up in the raw talent & beauty & joy. Humans can do some pretty cool stuff.

The only consistent explanation for what the Trump administration is doing on immigration is "we want to lock up a bunch of people in camps." It's not about illegal immigration. Or crime. It's not even about deporting people. It's people like Stephen Miller lusting for an excuse to build camps.

Under a proposed rule the Trump administration submitted for comment today, ALL initial requests for work authorization filed by applicants for asylum would be indefinitely suspended for "an extended period, possibly many years."

Under the second Trump administration, displays of force against protesters have become increasingly common. So it’s important to know which chemicals are being deployed against those exercising their First Amendment rights—because they’re not benign.

ICE talks abt undocumented humans w/ a “criminal record.” Reminder that, as @prisonculture.bsky.social often says, many things are crimes that are not harmful & many things are harmful that are not crimes. & that trauma & oppressive systems force impossible choices & child rapists run the govt.

If you don't know American figure skating Olympic gold medalist Alysa Liu's backstory, this is a pretty good 2 minute summary.

If you look closely you can see the little mustache

I went into watching The Talented Mr. Ripley knowing nothing about it and man did that take a turn.

The only acceptable Democratic posture to me is conquering the fascists, undoing their destruction, sending them to prison and razing their buildings.

Last week Donald Trump registered the trademark "Donald J. Trump International Airport." This week Florida Republicans voted to rename Palm Beach International Airport Donald J. Trump International Airport," putting taxpayers on the hook for licensing fees that go straight to him

I just wanna let everyone know that the reason that the DOJ under Biden didn’t always do what we wanted was because it wasn’t an arm of the White House. It is supposed to be an independent entity. I hope the next time that it is, you remember today, when Trump put his face on the building.

Yesterday, those who teach Intro to Sociology at Florida colleges (as opposed to universities) received a ready-made curriculum from the state and were ordered to teach it. Yes, you read that correctly. The *state* is enforcing a curriculum on college profs, complete w/ the following restrictions:
