3 people were hospitalized from this fire after Judge Diane Goodstein issued a ruling temporarily blocking SC from handing over millions of voters’ personal data to Trump. Trump allies - including Elon Musk - ramped up their criticism of judges for being politically biased against the GOP.

Every large-scale platform is run by techno-fascists, that's just reality. This is the only social media I'm on because the community of good people is strong and important but it's also vulnerable to the whims of those in charge, who aren't our friends. Best to keep that in mind.

Every crisis is an opportunity. This is the moment for Dems on Capitol Hill to call a news conference and make clear: Not one dime to fund the federal government until Trump withdraws his unlawful orders and agrees not to send troops to occupy Democratic-run cities

Texas tried invading Seattle just last month and the Astros lost three straight games and missed the playoffs entirely.

Remember when these guys ran a completely fabricated story about trans kids sourced to a single bigot who worked at St Louis Children’s Hospital and it got so much traction that they ended a bunch of programs for trans kids because of all the bomb threats

JUST IN: Chicago journalistsa re suing DHS and ICE over force used against reporters: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Fucking wild that this is a relief and was even a question.

This is heavy.

There’s an essay to be written about how maga patriotism is just shitty fandom. Anyone who follows sports knows fans like this, it’s always the ref’s fault, the other team doesn’t exist, there’s some plot/player/coach holding the team back otherwise they’d always win easy bsky.app/profile/atru...

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

this is a good write up imo

Where are the commanding officers of those sailors in the background. How are they letting this happen?

DHS invoking a Holy War:

Two things felt different to the ppl I spoke with who’d been protesting at the ICE building for months. 1st was the sheer volume of tear gas, pepper balls and flash-bangs used, seemingly unprovoked. 2nd was seeing so many videographers/live-streamers embedded with the feds as they marched out.

Some folks criticized Caesar on the no Caesars platform

Mamdani was 9 years old on 9/11. This is just gutter racism from Debra Messing.

This week at an event for THE PEOPLE’S PROJECT, a reader asked in a gracious and cheeky way what I would hope white readers in particular would get out of the book. Or more directly, what I would TELL white readers. And this was basically my answer: African-Americans are experts on America.

brutal lol

The funniest thing in the world is someone posting something egregiously fake followed by “let that sink in.”

I ended up on swifty TikTok and the comments are absolutely killing me. "9th grade slam poetry", [a photo of boiled chicken], "album for cop wives", "If Taylor wrote this that's bad, if ChatGPT wrote this that's worse, and if Travis wrote this I'm actually kind of proud of him".

I’ve never seen any episode of Dr. Who, Battlestar Gallactica, or the Kardashians (and I’m very proud of the last one.)

Hours after a federal judge paused the Trump administration’s plans to deploy 200 members of the Oregon National Guard to Portland, federal law enforcement officers escalated the tactics used on protesters in the city. Troy and I were on the ground:

It’s a lawless regime.

That she's cool as fuck?

Imagine if Biden had tried to federalize the Texas National Guard to halt Operation Lone Star, perhaps by claiming Texas was engaged in "rebellion." Would a single legal commentator on the right have claimed that decision was unreviewable? I just fundamentally do not believe they would.

Trump is very angry that Fox News has dared to interview a Democrat

If you’re running for office and you cannot say that these criminals should be held responsible for their crimes and abuses then you are not worthy of being trusted with power. Period. End of story. This is the absolute baseline for everyone who wants to be a leader right now.

Stephen miller is actively calling for a civil war right now on Twitter. I really do not think Americans are taking in the reality that the federal government is openly admitting to waging war against democratically held cities and states and what comes now that this is being openly said.

An 84-year-old said she sustained a concussion and was hit with a projectile after she and her husband, a Vietnam vet, were knocked down by federal officers.

so is this the fight against "left-wing terrorism"?

Why didn’t the students rush the field?

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

Weird stuff happens all the time but I do have to say I’m pretty skeptical that federal agents were “rammed by 10 cars” and somehow none of them were injured? If that’s true, surely it wouldn’t be too hard to track down 10 busted vehicles?

ICE gassed members of the Chicago Police Department sent to protect them from protesters

A useful feature on here would be a way for people to tag their own posts as ꜱᴘᴏʀᴛꜱ for when they’re just posting HOLY SHIT or THIS GUY out of context

Yah I just saw a picture of an ICE officer putting zip-tie handcuffs on an INFANT 🤬: HAGUE

On October 3rd, I’m asking you to register to vote. zohranfornyc.com/register

Ya know if democrats cared to win (they dont, they want only enough power to help appease fascists) they would be hounding this guy relentlessly for social media advice

in 1995, the year 1979 was 16 years earlier, or the equivalent of 2009 right now you're welcome

When right-wingers use the word "normal," they mean members of the in group. It doesn't matter how off-putting or downright hostile they are. What matters is that they have all the signifiers of the in group. That's it. This article is trash.

This is important. The GOP can open the government literally today with zero Democrats. Just ditch the filibuster. Go ahead. Why won’t they do 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.

It’s odd Vance is trolling on gratitude because I’ve noted before his complete lack of gratitude to anyone who helps him. Extended family takes him in… he writes book about what losers they are. Mentored at Yale? Take it down. Ohio makes him senator? Suckers

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her. Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

Sadly, yes. It's astonishing how much the racism is ignored within the series. Ali Nahdee does a fantastic analysis of the widespread anti-indigenous racism in the books. youtu.be/AVKTdkSny6A?...

why’s he look like Andrew cuomo?

There are at least 50 federal agents at the Portland ICE facility tonight.

It really does seem like a problem that the president, the vice president and Stephen Miller all seem to suffer from paranoid delusions
