It would be a shame if this went viral.

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence. This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less. Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

Billionaire David Ellison installed conservative ideologue Bari Weiss atop CBS News, dropping any pretense of independence at the network, writes @eoinhiggins.bsky.social.

We're going to court to demand transparency and accountability from ICE.

“If they are willing to do that to a congressional candidate on camera in front of press, imagine what they are willing to do to their detainees behind boarded-up windows.”

Map of nations that recognize Palestine as a sovereign nation. 150 nations...not us, because Israel still runs our foreign policy.

The two things authoritarians fear most is satire and hope The first exposes their absurdity and the second gives people a reason to resist them Promote satire and spread hope

This was always the goal and don’t forget that this happened because of the Democrats/Joe Biden. TikTok was in zero danger of being banned and the ban was non existent until Biden/Dems worked w Gallagher to revive it because people were using the app to speak out about Israel’s genocide.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

If the Charlie Kirk censorship feels familiar it's because we've been here before... very recently. American Hasbara is a bipartisan project.

We’re appealing this unprecedented ruling against our client, Mahmoud Khalil. The Trump administration is trying to use every baseless avenue they can think of to punish and deport Mahmoud for his protected speech, but we won’t back down.

Every person who advocated for this, who lied about this, who fucking promoted this, who pulled the triggers, who refueled the planes, who built the bombs, who flew the drones; every single person involved even remotely with Israel should break rocks at the quarry until the day they die.

This is fucking crazy

It’s extremely concerning that people in the media are already trying to use this shooting as justification for more online censorship/control, feeding into BS moral panic narratives. Dismantling free speech and civil liberties only bolsters authoritarianism, it doesn’t dismantle it

charlie kirk did not believe in free speech. he believed in the right of white people to be racist without criticism or censure

Normal vigil

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

In other news, someone who made positive contribution to the world died. Rest In Peace, Polly Holliday. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/a...

WSJ edit board spins a fantasy: "for Mr. Trump, while this is a moment of personal sadness, it is also an opportunity for leadership...he can help the country rise above this madness. He can say that this is the moment when the descent into political violence must stop.” Meanwhile — no, he can’t:

Not a single receipt and not a single copy of the contract in this crazy rant, just a bunch of delusional conspiracy theories. All of his claims in this story were debunked very well in this thread x.com/patrick__eff...

One of my most difficult interviews, but we have to listen to what is happening in Gaza. A devastating account of how Israel's genocide is maiming, killing, and starving Palestinian children from a front-line physician who has volunteered in Gaza. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif. He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza. Speechless.

"We are a fascist state and it's being led by the immigration authorities." - @jennbudd.bsky.social worked for Customs and Border patrol for 6 years outside of San Diego. She's now an outspoken immigrant rights advocate. From episode 291 of The Bitchuation Room.

“I just want to know what happened to Saniyah. That was my only daughter, she didn’t deserve this,” Thomasina Cheatham said at a press conference on Monday outside the police station where authorities said her daughter was found unresponsive.

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.

At least 17 people, mostly children, were killed by an Israeli strike while waiting for food supplements in Gaza, health officials say.

From Epstein to Netanyahu to Bolsonaro, Trump sure puts a lot of effort into trying to protect criminals from accountability.

While Iran and Israel continue to attack each other, Israel continues the mass murder of Palestinians.

Jesus Christ. He supported the Iraq war in 2003. He supported the intervention in Libya. He bombed Syria as president. He ramped *up* drone strikes. He got into a back-and-forth with Iran over Suleimani's assassination. Enough with this!

“latest shooting of gazans seeking food”

israel is a rogue state that western countries should have reined in a long time ago

Is Trump's "Minerals Deal" a Fossil Fuel Shakedown? Antonia Juhasz on New U.S.-Ukraine Agreement

The Democrats who think Americans are too stupid to understand what oligarchy means could use data like this to try to educate people. That they just avoid the problem altogether shows it’s not really about comprehension.

My latest: "Pope Francis: A Contrast to The False Prophets and Ravenous Wolves of MAGA" Pope Francis embodied a Christianity devoted to service and preaching universal love. Meanwhile, MAGA worship Trump, cruelty, & the grift, while cosplaying with a cross. thelefthook.substack.com/p/pope-franc...

I, a Muslim, went to an all boys Jesuit Catholic high school, Bellarmine, where we were taught the concept of "men for others," "faith through service," and agape. I can spot fake Christians. It isn't hard with the Trump Administration.

Brave, courageous, powerful statement from Abrego Garcia's wife, Jennifer. Watch, cry a little, share and let's keep fighting everyone.

Space adventure and exploration should be for the benefit of all humankind, not the whimsy of a few.

The ideas around “neutrality” and “bias” have done so much damage in the mainstream media. These ideas only work in one direction—against the left—and result in people in the industry who personally identify as left-leaning overcompensating and doing the right’s work for them

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

This is, in large part, pandemic revenge. As far as these oligarchs are concerned, all science does is tell them stuff they cannot do. They can't keep spewing carbon. They can't keep businesses open as usual when millions are dying. They have concluded that research is the enemy of profit.
