This ought to be engraved somewhere.

Taking Tylenol is woke now?

What a fucking G.

The most important thing to know about Trump’s acetaminophen announcement is that the GOP is still hiding the Epstein files

"We have a lot of stupid people in this country running things." Donald Trump

Stephen Miller says we are evil, wicked, envious, nothing. Says they are good, pure, righteous. He tells them we build nothing, are nothing. He dehumanizes us so it’s easier to hurt us. Maybe kill us. All because we are different. He isn’t warning of war, he’s declaring it and it's chilling.

An Arizona man is facing felony charges for threatening to shoot up a gay bar to avenge Charlie Kirk. He was convinced the shooter had "transgender ideology." Fortunately, he was stopped, but this is on the media for running with the erroneous WSJ reporting. www.azfamily.com/2025/09/19/p...

A lot of people don’t want to admit Charlie Kirk was racist because they would have to admit they are racist too, and that truth cuts deeper than they can handle. I will not mourn a bigot.

From @hcrichardson.bsky.social: "the U.S. Dept of Agriculture is ending its annual report on household food security." An expert who explains that this is troubling because inflation is up & the job market is unstable, both of which increase food insecurity. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. --First Amendment, USA

Dear Department of Homeland Security: I gave this request almost a full second's worth of consideration, and my answer is an unequivocal no. I would have answered sooner, but I was laughing.

GOLDMAN: “.. During the last 40 years, there have been eight episodes where the Fed cut after being on hold for 6 or more months. In half of those episodes the economy subsequently entered recession.”

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

BASH: The big difference here, as you know, is that this is a broadcast network that was threatened by a govt individual who has oversight over their regulation and potential for mergers MARKWAYNE MULLIN: Sure, but this is also a network that has not been friendly to this administration whatsoever

In Naperville, IL on Wednesday, ICE surrounded a group of documented workers replacing a residential roof. ICE agents reportedly kicked over the ladders and forced the workers to jump. The episode involved a chase with guns drawn.

You know they are all taking bribes, right? I mean, the head of the party does it openly - $millions from tech for the inauguration, gold bar from Tim Apple, a jet from Qatar, cash for the rose garden, sponsors for the ballroom, crypto from Saudis, $200,000 p.p. for a pardon. They're all doing it.

Why does it take a BRITISH newspaper to break a story like this? Where the hell is the American media? 🤨

NEW: In a rare public appearance, Jack Smith spoke at length this week issuing a dire warning about Trump's weaponization of the Department of Justice. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-jack-s...

A few Qs in this week's Kash hearings that ring differently know that we know Tom Homan took a bribe. 1) Kash was asked how many people triggered CI concerns in background checks. Homan investigation was a CI investigation. 2) Kash was asked WHY background checks were halted until he was confirmed.

The $50k in cash paid by undercover FBI agents to Tom Homan was inside a bag from the fast casual restaurant chain Cava, the @nytimes.com reports. The sting grew out of a long-running counterintelligence investigation that had not been targeting Homan.

So Trump gets DOJ to drop an obvious bribery case against Tom Homan, then fires the US Attorney who found insufficient evidence to prosecute Letitia James, then threatens to fire Pam Bondi and replace her with dunce Lindsey Halligan unless she immediately indicts his enemies.

ICE denies using excessive force in Broadview, Illinois. Never mind the videos…

buh bye! #BeBetter

Those on an H1B cannot return to the US from tomorrow (Sunday) unless paying $100K. This is an out-of-the blue presidential action. We’ll see software engineers stranded abroad. One easy to predict outcome: those on US visas will travel less… for work, for conferences etc.

National parks remove signs that talk about climate change, slavery and Japanese internment, under orders from know-nothing President Convicted Felon. wapo.st/4nyQrWW via @washingtonpost.com

BREAKING: Luigi Mangione's lawyers have filed a motion to dismiss his case on constitutional grounds. Some arguments are specific to his case, involving AG Bondi's actions, while others are more generally applicable. Law Dork earlier covered the underlying conduct: www.lawdork.com/p/luigi-mang...

The "Department of War", @usarmy.bsky.social, and USMC are also engaged in sex trafficking in Seoul according to this lawsuit. Apparently our "glorious armed service members" love to beat the shit out of escorts they are trafficking.

The Secretary of Education, a former pro wrestling executive, has assembled an all-star collection of grifters, scammers, and illiterate know nothings for the "America 250 Civics Coalition." Claremont, Hillsdale, ALEC, Heritage, TurningPoint USA, Moms for Liberty, Priests for Life, Prager "U" ...

everything they keep saying is so absurdly, patently false

55 years ago today, Mary Tyler Moore premiered. The masterpiece that is Chuckles Bites The Dust.

The Onion reminds us that President Convicted Felon is still haunted by the Epstein scandal, no matter where he goes. theonion.com/trump-spends...

President Trump wants to be able to fire far more executive branch employees at will — upending checks on presidential power that have existed for more than a century.

other98 The US Department of Education is teaming up with Turning Point USA, Moms for Liberty, the Heritage Foundation, and 40 other right-wing organizations to create "patriotic" civics content for America's 250th Anniversary. This is what thought control looks like.

Don’t look away.

“U.S. naval forces have conducted another lethal strike on a vessel President Donald Trump said was tied to a designated terrorist organization involved in drug trafficking in the Caribbean.” IDK who at the Miami Herald needs to hear this, but “Trump says” isn’t a legal justification for murder. 🤷🏼‍♂️

The people they are kidnapping are disappearing.

Oh my God, I missed this: "CDC staff weren’t in the room; instead, they watched from a separate livestream due to safety concerns directed at them by some ACIP members." yourlocalepidemiologist.substack.com/p/covid-19-v...

This gets at what I've been increasingly thinking, it's not so much that he cares about those boats as he's testing the military's tolerance for following illegal orders. And so far, he's no doubt pleased with his murder squad.

Reup: Amidst the snowballing incidences of DHS being caught in lies abt the assaults it carries out, DOJ used RETRACTED DHS lies to claim that DHS' illegal rule on Congressional oversight is BECAUSE Todd Blanche ordered the illegal arrest of Ras Baraka. www.emptywheel.net/2025/09/19/t...

This isn't about "what the market wants." It's about the FCC Commissioner appearing on a podcast and openly threatening a network. That isn't "market demand." That's a huge violation of the First Amendment. Anyone who can't understand the First Amendment shouldn't be in public office.
