ICYMI: “And now, a response from the leader of the frog resistance...” 🐸 🎵 #Colbert

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

#MusicSky Seeing all #theSundays albums reissued on vinyl is wild - considering I was buying CDs when their debut was released. That being said, I’m still going to get all 3 LPs on vinyl because #HarrietWheeler ❤️

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

“We essentially have become a kleptocracy that would make Putin blush… In the first three months, the Trump family has become $3 BILLION wealthier, so that’s a billion dollars a month.” @profgalloway.com @nicollewallace.bsky.social @newrepublic.com bsky.app/profile/prof... bsky.app/profile/scho...

About to be the family that owns TikTok.

“WE HAVE IDENTIFIED WHAT WE BELIEVE TO BE THE WORLD HEAD QUARTERS OF ANTIFA IN WAR TORN PORTLAND. WE APPRECIATE YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER.”

🚨 BREAKING: James Comey posts a video statement following his indictment "My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump...But I'm not afraid. And I hope you're not either...And I'm innocent. So let's have a trial and keep the faith."

BREAKING President Trump has signed an order which allows TikTok to remain operating in the United States under a US investor group. The president confirmed that Rupert Murdoch is part of the investment group.

CNN has identified at least 100 U.S. citizen children who have been separated from their parents after ICE deported them - including newborns. As a parent I cannot imagine the horror of being separated from my child, but that trauma is even more acute for the innocent children left behind.

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents. But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

Unhappy about Disney/Nexstar/Sinclair decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel? These are publicly traded companies. They depend on customers. Customers can complain. Like @carmitage.bsky.social said about Congress, calls to corporate HQs work too: Disney 818-560-1000 Nexstar 972-373-8800 Sinclair 410-568-1500

Susan Monarez says RFK Jr. told her to commit to decisions in advance, without reviewing evidence and to dismiss vaccine experts.

While it LOOKS like Trump is making everybody capitulate, you guys realize 6 people own 90% of ALL media in America? There are not tens of thousands of people capitulating. There are just a few old men—lusting for more power— & Trump is giving it to them! That’s what Kimmel's cancellation means.

Here’s what a Ball State University employee said that led to their termination:

They are beholden to money.

“This might be one of the most massive cover-ups in the history of the United States unfolding before our very eyes… Stop playing us for fools and suckers. Release everything—now.” @raskin.house.gov #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

OPEN LETTER: to Conservatives who are compiling databases of people who don’t express sadness at Kirk’s death, in order to call their employers & get them fired. I realize they truly feel self-righteous about this. But on sheer statistics, alone, they are completely fucking delusional. THREAD:👇🧵

Yesterday's piece from @jamellebouie.net is the only high-profile piece I've seen that specifically discusses the watchlist, its effect on academics, and its effect on public attitudes toward academia as a whole. (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/09/13/o...

And there you have it.

This is the guy who is supposed to be in charge.

“Every political movement in history, including the most bloodthirsty, has condemned political violence by its opponents. The only real test is whether you also oppose political violence by your allies. This is a test Trump has repeatedly failed.”

At least seven historically Black colleges and universities across the South received threats Thursday that caused lockdowns and closures. via @wwno.org

9. Kirk wanted the full Epstein files released. 10. So do I: 11. Let’s honor him by making sure that happens in 2025. Thank you for screenshotting me for your records. 👍🧵

JUST IN: Brazil’s top court sentences former President Jair Bolsonaro to 27 years and 3 months in prison over his attempted coup

Mixed feelings today. Not much pleasure in irony today. Fuck guns. Fuck hate speech. Trump created this environment. Violence is not the answer. Only against Nazis. RIP to a hateful man. Release the Epstein Files.

Fragile toad of man.

Thousands of protesters marched in Chicago on Saturday against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and President Donald Trump’s plan to send National Guard troops and immigration agents to the city.

“This is public health we’re talking about….. Your decisions do not begin & end with you. If you decide against vaccinating your child against measles & mumps, say, you put every student in your child’s school at risk of infection, injury or death, though they themselves may be vaccinated.”

🚨Trump and Republicans are pushing a bill that would gut Medicaid and SNAP for Veterans who rely on them to survive. We didn’t serve this country to be abandoned. 📞 Call your Senator: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO. #VoteNO

Donald Trump has vowed to deport millions and jail his enemies. To carry out that agenda, his administration will exploit America’s digital surveillance machine. Here are steps you can take to evade it. wrd.cm/46oii6T
