JUST IN: A new class action lawsuit challenges ICE's warrantless immigration arrests in Washington, D.C., which they say are occuring without probable cause and based largely on perceived ethnicity. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Yep and we will be there very soon.

Not a single American has a better life because an immigrant was deported. none. You get nothing out of that. If anything you’re worse off. You’re *likely* worse off.

To be clear: It's entirely possible this is about the Dan Richman stuff (as we catalogued in our piece for @lawfaremedia.org), not the Andy McCabe stuff. We don't really know the factual basis for the indictment because the indictment doesn't say. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

If this indictment really is about the McCabe matter, the government's case appears to hinge on the idea that McCabe telling Comey about the disclosure *after the article published* somehow amounts to Comey "authorizing" it himself.

Trump just signed a an EO that allows the full power or the federal government to go after extremist groups. Stephen Miller predictably went on a rant about Antifa, but not a *single* reporter asked if they’d be going after right wing extremists too. Shameful.

And white people wonder why Black people will continue to really side eye most white people after the election & especially now. All we want is to be left tf alone. youtu.be/yFQDzax9C-Q?...

The majority of white Americans wanted expensive ass ☕️. And she's right. youtube.com/shorts/kR1Wi...

"Higher tax rates will destroy the country! It's communism!" We literally have the interstate highway system because a Republican president--a retired four-star general and noted opponent of communism--kept the tax rate on the highest earners in the country at 91 percent of their income over 200k.

This part. The RSD is real.

SO true

🏠 Nevada rent averages $1,968/month. Pair that with utilities up to $200, groceries 17% higher, and gas above average… Families are being priced out. #CostofLiving Nevada

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...

The National Archives under the Trump administration released @mikiesherrill.bsky.social full, unredacted Navy personnel file to Jack Ciattarelli's campaign. This is an unprecedented and illegal weaponization of the National Archives and private, personal records to attack a political opponent.

The Supreme Court should keep in mind that James Comey did just as much as they've done to hand Trump the power and office he's abusing today.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

It shouldn’t be considered far left to believe in decency & democracy.

Wait until they find some bullets in Comey's house that say "I did crime." Then they'll have him for sure.

This part is too often overlooked.

“In short, whatever way you play Halligan’s hand, you lose. You lose by bringing a conspiracy case. You lose by bringing a false statements case…The only question is whether you lose at the hands of a grand jury, a federal judge, or the president who just finished praising you on social media.”

The White House is frantically pressuring the small number of Republicans who support the Epstein list discharge petition to flip and vote against it, per CNN. They’re clearly panicking about whatever’s in these files.

Lying to Congress is a crime, right? Yet we’ve seen examples where the HHS Secretary has misled Congress without consequences. And let’s not even get started on Republican Supreme Court nominees who misrepresented themselves during confirmation hearings.

Against all odds, looks like we’re announcing this tomorrow morning. (No, it’s not Infowars… yet?)

Unless there’s an indictment under seal, I think it’d be preferable for reporters to say “prosecutors are expected to seek an indictment in the coming days.” Based on the public evidence, I’m not convinced we should expect the grand jury to return a true bill. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

I wanted to write to them, but it looks like they don’t want to hear about it. 🤨 yieldgiving.com/inquiries/ Seriously, who has a connection? I’m sure there are some #yieldgiving folks floating around here? @geauxgabrielle.bsky.social is who you’re looking for!!!

Who can get this woman in Ms. Scott’s call list? Please, with a quickness.

Odd, how we can’t afford to give Americans healthcare, but we can afford to drop $200,000,000,000 on Argentina with a moment’s notice.

I'm so angry about the weaponization of government and corporate America capitulation, I just swore on MSNBC. Sorry, but it is how I feel.

ATTENTION: OUR COUNTRY is using military flights to deport people and send them to countries they are NOT from, without a trace of what has happened to them. This is MONSTROUSLY EVIL shit and illegal as hell. What the actual fuck? Why is nothing being said about this?

A few days late, but if you haven’t heard, here’s some good news. 🥳 news.mit.edu/2025/study-h...

The FBI cannot be trusted. The DOJ cannot be trusted. Local law enforcement cannot be trusted. We are in the era of make-believe.

That’s what I believe honestly. I do all the fundraising for my nonprofit. I raised enough money to put a girl through her last year of Columbia. For another to finish her PhD. For another to cover a full year at Jackson State. That to me means something. I wanna have impact in MY lane of influence

Yes, it is.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

I’m at a community meeting about resisting ICE in Chicago. There are about 400 people in this high school auditorium. Chicago is showing up.

the funny thing about the constant misappropriation of MLK is that the guy left a massive body of writing specifically aimed at explaining his views of those of the movement he represented to the broad public. it is extremely easy to know what the guy thought on a variety of subjects and yet

One of 1000+ reasons why I don't follow any Abrahamic religions & especially Christianity. To purposely vote & choose sociopathic individuals who you know hurt people for you to go heaven & leave ppl behind because you feel they're not worthy of you also makes you one. youtu.be/8qXvcEPOrro?...

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes. That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

For everyone saying this is an impeachable offense and worse than Watergate: Of course it is. But that doesn’t matter in the slightest, because this GOP Congress has completely abdicated their duty and will never do anything to hold him accountable.

Wow. Not at all surprising, but wow. Blatant corruption is perfectly fine (encouraged, even) in this administration.

For all the people who said Trump wants to be just like Putin, no, he doesn’t. He wants to be just like Kim Jong-un.

Trump hints on us ending up with a “closed country for a period of time”.

New from me: There's a lot of misinformation around the reasons I was fired from WaPo. Here's the official termination letter I got sent by Washington Post. Read and judge for yourself. open.substack.com/pub/karenatt...

Pope Francis said, ‘Can we also laugh at God? Of course we can.’ If even I can take a joke, imagine how small a man must be if he can’t.

One of the key ways you refuse to comply with fascism is by becoming even louder and more fearless in supporting vulnerable people. You SHOW that you are unwilling to throw the "undesirables" under the bus if only for self-preservation because under fascism you will also become undesirable one day.

One thing Democratic Party leadership and pundits are failing to fully grasp is just how much trust has been lost in them. The average Democratic voter feels betrayed that in the face of a second Trump term, the Democratic Party pushed for President Biden to run again, all while funding a genocide.

Making #ivermectin OTC is backwards. More concerned with pushing illegitimate treatments than ensuring access to vaccines that actually save lives. And now, people who truly need it—for serious infections like strongyloides—may not even be able to get it. www.texastribune.org/2025/08/27/t...
