So different from the whole history of college football!

The EPA is abandoning a rule that would strengthen limits on fine-particle pollution, a move scientists and experts say could lead to dirtier air and more deaths.

license plate data merged with credit header data, marriage records, vehicle ownership, and voter registrations, in one app for ICE agents. oh and it sends push notifications when someone they're seeking is nearby. 🆒: www.404media.co/this-app-let...

NEW: The lame duck conservative majority on the DougCo School Board plans to use its last meeting Tuesday to pass a 10-year extension for all charter schools without a review of their performance and finances. @marshallglasses.bsky.social reports:

Around 384,800 Mississippians who rely on food assistance will not be able to access SNAP benefits starting Nov. 1 due to the government shutdown, the Mississippi Department of Human Services announced on Friday. SNAP benefits may be “delayed or may not be issued” next month, the agency said.

Just wild: after the Kirk assassination, a Tennessee man shared a meme on Facebook about Trump's reaction to a school shooting. Somehow the local sheriff interpreted it as itself menacing a school shooting, and the man's been in jail ever since with bond set at $2 million [Matt Cavedon, @cato.org]

CNN chief Mark Thompson met privately with the White House last week. The next morning, he urged the network to ease up on its coverage of Trump's East Room demolition. The scoop from @nataliekorach.bsky.social in @status.news www.status.news/p/mark-thomp...

From 1965 through 2017 when Obama made a deal with Cuba in his last days in office, Cubans on U.S. soil could not be deported to Cuba. There are senior citizens ordered deported in the 1970s who are still here decades after serving their time. Now Trump is dumping some of them in Mexico.

No American flag in front of this house.

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.” … but what is plenary authority?

DCPS reneged on its promise to help hundreds of international teachers secure a green card. Many may now be forced to leave the country. Read the full story from @maustermuhle.bsky.social 51st.news/dc-green-car...

I swear all of these conservatives turn Catholic purely for the vibes and get continually surprised by what it’s actually like. This is super normal Catholic stuff.

The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.

So Democrats shouldn’t call Republicans fascist or gestapo or anything because that could provoke violence, but it is appropriate to call Democrats domestic terrorists or a domestic extremist organization. Do I have that right?

No, there’s lots of things that push back the other way every day. Keep going.

This is an illegal and dangerous weaponization of the federal government. That Jack Ciattarelli and the Trump admin are breaking the law and exposing private records for political gain is a violation of anyone who has ever served. No veteran's record is safe. www.cbsnews.com/news/nationa...

When Trump announced changes to the H-1B visa program Friday, it was the middle of the night in India. For some H-1B holders there, the next day and a half was a chaotic race around the world.

More details: ICE goons were turned away at HD Cooke. They tried to seize the school nurse in the parking lot without a warrant, but backed off after staff intervened.

Abolish ICE

Trump and his cronies are using blatant government coercion to suppress speech they don’t like — a gross violation of the 1st Amendment. Shame on ABC for caving to political blackmail. We must stand with those who resist the bullies and call out those who appease them. NO KINGS.

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated. Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms. Collective boycott. Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

Disney/ABC just caved & pulled Jimmy Kimmel for political reasons. Nexstar — which owns The CW + 200+ local ABC, NBC, CBS & FOX stations — is part of the same machine. 💥 Boycott Disney. Boycott Nexstar. Boycott their advertisers. Hit them where it hurts: the $$$.

a good arbiter of how close we are to bad hybrid regime shit is if the political comedy shows start getting pulled for whatever reason

So the white dude from Fox News said we should kill mentally ill homeless folks, he apologizes and they’re good; @karenattiah.bsky.social posts an accurate quote and says she’s not in the mood to mourn and gets bounced.

Another US strike on a vessel alleged to be smuggling drugs in the Caribbean. Once again, the specific entity and individuals targeted are not identified—simply labelled as "terrorists." 1/n

i have said this before but when “getting rid of race in admissions” for the administration means “you can’t even try to reach out to underrepresented communities and encourage them to apply and if you do it is illegal discrimination against white people” then the actual goal here is segregation

TCW is happy @jamellebouie.net is now interacting with this “content.”

Stephen Miller: "The last message that Charlie Kirk gave to me before he joined his creator in heaven was he said that we have to dismantle and take on the radical left organizations in this country that are fomenting violence. That was the last message that he sent me ... we are gonna do that."

Why would fans of a man they hail as a ‘free speech champion’ be so triggered by literally listening to him speak his ‘truths’?

Politico - President Trump tells reporters "we just have to beat the hell" out of "radical left lunatics," following the killing of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.

The U.S. government’s immigration raid on Hyundai Motor’s Georgia battery plant site will set back construction by two or three months.

Senate staff just got an alert: "Capitol Police are responding to an incident at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) Headquarters. Staff are asked to remain clear of the police activity."

Here’s a story that’s becoming all too common: federal immigration agents using racial and ethnic profiling as a rationale for stopping, questioning and detaining U.S. citizens who they suspect are undocumented.

"When do we get to use the guns? To k*ll these people" asks Charlie Kirk supporter (2021) Universal warning

In June, a Democratic state rep in Minnesota was murdered, and a state senator was shot. And a couple of days later, Trump said he wouldn't phone Gov. Walz, calling him "whacked out" and "a mess"

BREAKING A suspect in the shooting of Charlie Kirk is NOT in custody, per the University to multiple outlets. So the shooter, who reportedly shot Kirk from 200 yards away, is at large.

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys. Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman. There is no justification for this. None.

To put this into context, the judicial warrant for the search at the Hyundai plant named just four people. Relying on that warrant, ICE detained nearly 500 people. DHS admitted that included U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and people lawfully here on visas.

D.C. Police sent an arrest warrant for the Republican congressman to the U.S. attorney’s office, where interim U.S. Attorney refused to sign it. The case remained under MPD “investigation” until Trump took over. Then it was promptly, conveniently closed. trib.al/3VYMQps

BREAKING: ICE is sending Russian dissidents back to Russia. When the dissidents arrived in Russia, the Russian authorities were given documents relating to their asylum applications in the US which under US law are confidential. This seems to be part of a secret agreement between Trump and Putin.

Today, MAGA is losing it over this video of Pete Hegseth SLAMMING Trump. “All bluster, very low substance… he’s an armchair tough guy. He said that John McCain is not a war hero yet he sought his own five military deferments.” RT to ruin Trump’s day!

The president of Northwestern University, Michael H. Schill, announced that he would resign following Republican pressure

Keeping this government rolling as usual is doing active harm to actual people. Brain dead.

@adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social: "Trump’s deployment of 2,300 National Guard troops and 500 federal law enforcement agents has hurt foot traffic, chilled business, and made people cancel trips and nights out. It is slowly choking the life out of Washington, D.C." www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-is-s...
