I think I’m going to be sick.

A mass walkout of the UN General Assembly as Netanyahu prepares to speak.

People changing their mind and speaking out on the horrors of Gaza is a good thing. But if a person “changing their mind” is in power, and they do not subsequently use that power in accordance with the seriousness of the new conclusion they have arrived at, then that’s a problem.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Help make this happen.

🚨New Development: ICE attorney Adam Boyd resigns in protest, calling Trump's mass deportation policies "morally indefensible." Boyd says that the Trump regime targeting families, asylum seekers, and longtime residents - not just criminals.

"Cruz inserted language into the reconciliation bill that eliminates a $150m fund to 'accelerate advances & improvements in research, observation systems, modeling, forecasting, and dissemination of info to the public' around weather forecasting."

Weird that Trump is going after Comey when that guy single-handedly gave Trump the 2016 election but then again he's also going after Elon who gave him the 2024 election

🚨🚨🚨 IT GETS WORSE 😳 "Kristi Noem didn’t authorize FEMA’s deployment of Urban Search and Rescue teams until Monday, more than 72 hours after the flooding began, multiple sources told CNN." Story: www.cnn.com/2025/07/09/p...

I am so ashamed.

Secret police” got the name because they do surveillance and are often plain-clothed (or in ICE’s case masked). But the thing that has defined them since the 18th century was that they operate independently of civil police with a goal of maintaining social and political control. Again, that’s ICE.

Done with Cuomo. Schumer and Gillibrand need to be next. Please get these two out of the Senate - New York. LFG.

More HIV, brought to you by Elon Musk and Trump.

The fact that Israeli warplanes are still bombing the hell out of Iran after the supposed end of the Iranian nuclear program sort of confirms this was never about the nuclear program, doesn’t it The Israelis just wanted to kill a ton of Iranians and destroy their infrastructure

When 15 million Americans lose their health care and plunge into personal crisis, none of them are going to give a shit about a made-for-clicks twitter fight between two billionaires arguing about who gets the bigger share of the corruption spoils.

We were spared the embarrassment.

Reverend William Barber was just arrested for praying in front of the Capitol. Reverend Barber is the co-chair of the Poor People's Campaign, which was founded by MLK Jr. Reverend Barber is the closest living person we have to Dr King. We MUST protect him. religionnews.com/2025/04/28/w...

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

Just sat down on the Capitol Steps with my good friend @booker.senate.gov to have a real conversation about the dangerous situation we confront in America. And what we can all do to stop it. Tune in live: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBej...

This is a moral moment in America. Sitting on the Capitol steps with Leader Hakeem Jeffries this morning to discuss what’s at stake with Trump’s budget and affirm the need for collective action to protect Medicaid, food assistance, and other safety net programs. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

The United States government kidnapped a toddler.

Breaking News: The Supreme Court temporarily blocked the Trump administration from deporting a group of Venezuelans under the Alien Enemies Act.

BREAKING: Supreme Court temporarily blocks removal of Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act

Trump just posted a photo of himself holding up a piece of paper claiming to show tattoos on Kilmar Abrego Garcia that are related to MS-13. The paper he’s holding up has been digitally altered to add the characters MS-13. The claim comes from neo-Nazis on X who say the tattoos cover up “MS-13.”

What an idiot. I will guarantee that almost 100% of autistic kids probably won’t do 14 years of heroin, attempt to scavenge a bear carcass for dinner or have worms in their brain.

I hit the mean streets of the Upper East Side with @dreamfornyc.bsky.social to see how voters in Cuomo Country really feel about Trump, Musk, harassing women (allegedly), and how many politicians it takes to fail New York's public schools.

It's insane how congestion pricing in NYC has been just about *the* most unambiguously successful new policy implemented in my lifetime and still all the dumbest people in government want to get rid of it

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

"we are going to ship out a million americans to a prison located in another country" is not just a sign that the us constitutional order could completely fall apart. it's also a sign that the alternatives right now are the constitution or mass extermination of trump's enemies

BREAKING: Federal judge in Boston halts Trump administration's mass cancellation of CHNV (Cuba/Haiti/Nicaragua/Venezuela) parole. Indira Talwani (Obama) says it was premised on legal error & lacked required individualized assessment. Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Here's Trump saying to Bukele that "homegrown criminals are next" and talking about how El Salvador will need to build "about five more places."

Law professor here: Things are F-U-C-K-E-D up.

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

Spot the American. Is it someone who speaks his mind and does the work to get citizenship? Or is it someone born into citizenship who covers his face while abducting people in a Черный ворон?

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, “Why are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?” I’ll give you one simple answer: It’s because you matter

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process. Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.

🚨The Trump admin is completely ignoring the courts. It's rounding people up in the streets. It's saying "homegrowns" next. If you work for the government or Congress & have any info or tips or feelings to share, please Signal me premthakker.35 Your anonymity will be protected

Wow. Andrew Cuomo cares so little about the city he wants to govern that he used ChatGPT to write his housing policy plan, didn't proofread it, and then lied about it when he was caught.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

The Trump admin has just detained Mohsen Mahdawi, who: –has green card –was Columbia Buddhist club president –saw his best friend shot & killed by Israeli soldier –said "we are against antisemitism because antisemitism is a form of injustice, and injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere"

HAPPENING NOW: Rümeysa Öztürk (repped by ACLU) has a hearing before Vermont federal judge William K. Sessions III. Öztürk is the Tufts PhD student snatched off the street by ICE and now facing deportation for cowriting a pro-Palestine op-ed in the student newspaper. 🧵

These fascists don’t use the words “crime” and “criminal” the way normal people do. In normal language, crime is an illegal action; criminals are individuals who did crimes. But to fascists, criminal is something people they hate are, unrelated to actions. Law following Haitian migrant? “Criminal”

Fascists speak in emotion, not facts. I see people disputing this utter nonsense as if it’s a fact claim, and correction will counter it. But it’s communicating “don’t you love cruelty to brown people? Isn’t hurting this innocent man thrilling? You’re a victim, so you’re entitled to feel that way.”
