Washington Post dismantled the platform Jamal wrote on. Discarded the fellowship they created in his memory. They fired me unjustly for speaking the truth. But I’ll never stop talking about my friend, writer, and amazing human, Jamal Khashoggi. RIP, Jamal. open.substack.com/pub/karenatt...

That is one of the strike calls of all time... This decision turned a walk into a strikeout for Xander Bogaerts in the 9th inning 😬

Vale Mrs. Bucket. Go teach those unruly angels some decorum!

🏆 Well done, Jimmy! #Memphis #Tennessee #StephenMiller #DonaldTrump #SchoolOfRock

Again, the goal is to have show trials. Which means indictments even if weak/no case. Followed by public humiliation. Do most of the damage and impose huge costs regardless of the verdict. Absolutely autocratic behavior.

Leavitt: "As for as ICE being at the Super Bowl, as far as I'm aware there's no tangible plan for that in store right now. However, of course, this administration is always going to arrest and deport illegal immigrants when we find them."

These are the people getting huge tax cuts — paid for by cuts to health care for millions of Americans. Every lie Trump and Republicans are telling right now is meant to distract you from this.

FYI

BREAKING: SCOTUS (again) allows Sec. Noem to proceed with ending Temporary Protect Status for more than 600,000 Venezuelans, over the objection of the three Democratic appointees.

Chicago, Illinois, 2025: "They had the Black people in one van, and the immigrants in another van." "They was bringing the kids down, had them zip-tied to each other." "I kept asking, 'What is the morality?' One of them laughed. He said, 'Fuck them kids.'" abc7chicago.com/post/ice-chi...

What DHS pulled in Chicago on Tuesday is wildly unconstitutional. They smashed down almost every door in the building, dragged entire families into the street, and detained people for hours ("Kavanaugh stops"). Ms. Fisher was held for five hours and another senior citizen was held for three hours.

Jacob Sullum on Trump's continually expanding claims to a lawful power to order extrajudicial killings. For now the killings are taking place overseas, and are of persons his appointees claim to suspect as drug smugglers.

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’” It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

NEW VIDEO: Stop grading Republicans on a curve. There are no Republican heroes in the fight for democracy. Staying grounded in the truth is essential — our democracy depends on it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDs3...

Oh noes. Ron's Stepford Wife is in hot water.

NEW: Diddy cancels his speaking engagement next week in Miami due to scheduling conflicts.

Lmao yo is this a joke? 🤣🤣

2025 was one hell of a ride. Simply put, we love you, Red Sox Nation. ❤️

Lucinda from Whiting, NJ is one of the thousands of calls and emails I’ve received expressing concern about losing their health care and rising costs.   People all across the country, regardless of political preferences, are feeling this pain.

Buttigieg: You’ve got a president and a Republican Congress who would rather see the entire government shut down than allow Americans to afford their healthcare.

The Republicans could end this shutdown by negotiating a decrease to your rising health insurance premiums. They don’t want to do that because that premium increase will pay for their tax cut for rich people.

NEWS: Judge McAfee, presiding judge in GA criminal case against Trump & others, says he'll dismiss the case unless a new prosecutor files a notice of appearance within 14 days. Follows last month's decision from the GA Supreme Court, which declined to hear Fani Willis's disqualification appeal.

Trump is defunding the police where he can so he can fill the void with his masked Gestapo. He did it in DC, and he tried it in New York but balked. Additionally, Pam Bondi is investigating the Portland police bureau because they arrested a right wing agitator. Pay attention.

Attn Black people, stop scrolling. This is not a drill: Chicago

Zofran Mamdani could become the first New York city mayor in recent history to be elected without getting majority support.

Trump calls for ICE and other cops to enforce his executive order banning flag burning, something that’s blatantly unconstitutional given Texas v Johnson (1989), which established flag burning as protected speech.

Vernon Davis doing these terrible legal commercials, someone pay him to do something with sweet potato yams

Signs of psychosis. No biggie

The pinnacle of comfort And My mercy enlarged all things. Oh GOD, with your mercy, i seek help❤

Trump says the US is in "armed conflict" with drug cartels. Meanwhile, his DOJ is disbanding a task force that took on cartels. Trump doesn't care about stopping drug trafficking — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy. This is a power grab.

"'That fucking dumbass,' one of the senior Trump administration officials told Zeteo on Wednesday, after seeing a clip of Lutnick riffing on Epstein. 'I’ve worked with him ... He just talks and talks, and doesn’t care what unhelpful bullshit comes out.'"

Comer: "We care about the people that are gonna lose -- ah, that could potentially lose healthcare. But there are people that can't afford healthcare. We've gotta get people off Medicaid and into the workforce and into private healthcare."

Maybe we should try Ctrl+Alt+Del on the United States right now 🥴🥴

the ease with which Republican like Eric Schmitt lie is really something to behold

It’s only a matter of time before there is a Kent State or far worse episode. We have a bunch of barely trained hop-heads encourage to unleash violence. What happens after is anyone’s guess. But none of this should deter us from fighting for democracy and rule of law.

I said what I said.

Seven years ago today, the Saudi Crown Prince directed the murder of VA resident and journalist Jamal Khashoggi. As we honor Jamal's memory, we are reminded that we must protect reporters around the world as they uncover the truth, inform the public, and promote accountability.

FYI this is going around seeming to be from me and Liz. This is not from us.

Wanna know whose shutdown this is? Pay attention to who’s enjoying it.

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

Remember when Hillary Clinton called some Trump supporters “deplorable“?

"An FBI agent was relieved of duty for declining to arrange a 'perp walk' of the bureau's former director, James Comey, in front of news media cameras after Comey was federally charged last month..."

📌If you ask Karoline Leavitt a question, she will flash her gold cross, smile, and lie to you. Ditto, Moses Mike Johnson.
