Has anyone checked to see if they’ve put a Spirit Halloween in the Capitol Rotunda yet.

I don’t think I can even articulate how I feel about hearing The Clash playing while shopping at Stew Leonards. I mean sure, better than the animatronic avocados. But still.

I guess going with inflatable characters didn’t play well with the Fox News narrative.

Montclair, NJ #NOKINGS

Cringe away, kids. My sign for tomorrow is done.

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly. Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested. Stay safe out there.

Keys to the office? Check! ✅ Sworn in as Congresswoman? Not quite 🙅🏻‍♂️

"The boy, who is Hispanic and African American, was held in a garage for five hours “without informing his family, stating any charges, or allowing him to call an attorney,” the statement said. He is a U.S. citizen, as is his entire immediate family, the release said."

Disney/Hulu: *cancelled* Paramount+: *cancelled* Amazon Prime: *cancelled* Spotify: *cancelled* T-Mobile: in process of canceling… they have their claws dug in. Facebook/Instagram/X: *deleted* (long time ago) Target/Walmart: *boycotting* Who am I missing? Feeling extra pissed off and feisty.

Let’s see how democratic leadership fucks this one up.

Right wing crazies want me arrested because they know I won't back down. Too bad.

The person who wants to be the governor of my state just voted to honor Charlie Kirk. The Democratic Party is completely and utterly lost.

Old man yells at clouds.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Any predictions on how long until the fascists turn their evil regulatory eye towards BlueSky? I’m thinking next week.

I’ve always been against robbing artists of fair compensation for their work. But if your art supports the corporations that are robbing us all of our freedoms then I have an idea. Also, support *independent* artists, writers & journalists while you still can.

There’s a lot of things I have to do in this life, but giving my money to fascists isn’t one of them.

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

D.C. A.G. Schwalb says not so fast, A.G. Bondi. "It is my opinion that the Bondi Order is unlawful, and that you [MPD Chief Smith] are not legally obligated to follow it."

Using force to displace unhoused people doesn’t make anyone safer.

Every single person involved in or collaborating with this fascist coup will need to be prosecuted for there to be any hope of restoring democracy. Any dem politician demanding any less needs to be tossed aside.

WU-TANG FOREVER 👐🏽

I guess Rupert Murdoch is off the team.

Exclusive: The Justice Department told President Trump in May that his name is among many in the Epstein files.

I interviewed neuroscientist Nicholas Wright about his upcoming book WarHead on brains & conflict. He said something that struck me. We didn’t stop Nazis by changing their minds. We oppressed them. We occupied Germany. We tied their hands. It was a generation before Germany agreed Nazis were wrong.

Hey friends! I know it’s the weekend but the Senate is voting on this godforsaken bill imminently and it would be amazing to flood their offices with calls - can you take a minute and make a call? act.aflcio.org/call_campaig...

Trump DECREED that he wants to sign the evil budget bill by July 4th. Republicans are in a crazed frenzy to try to pass the bill through both houses and get it to him. Senate will be convening at 2pm today, hoping that they can hold debate & amendment sessions in the middle of a Saturday night. 1/

Looking for recipes where ice is the main ingredient.

“The impossible often has a kind of integrity which the merely improbable lacks.” – Douglas Adams

I asked ICE where the “413% increase in assaults” justification for its officers using masks came from. They didn’t answer. So I dug into it, and what I found … did not boost their argument. Gift link: wapo.st/4l7a1ch

Maybe not today, maybe not to tomorrow, but someday there has to be an accounting for every one of these acts of official misconduct.

Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.

Watch with sound on 😂 #NoKings

Is this… reverse psychology? Like, make this the soundtrack just so more people will share this thermonuclear level of cluelessness? Mission accomplished. 🫡

Fuck these incel cosplaying dumbfuck losers

🚨Major development in California.

SCOOP — ICE employees received an email yesterday telling them the agency's warrantless arrest policy had been rescinded. It's likely part of the Trump administration's efforts to further loosen enforcement restrictions to meet the new quota of 3,000 immigration arrests per day. My report:

It is fascism. At a journalism event I asked about using the word so journalism can cover and explain it. I was told that we can't call fascists fascists because it would put off the fascists. This is fascism. Those who refuse to identify it are not doing journalism.

I am furious — incandescently furious — over the attacks on science by Trump and his regime, especially the actions of RFK Jr., which, *as history has plainly show us*, result in deaths upon deaths. You want the receipts? I've got the receipts. badastronomy.beehiiv.com/p/standing-u... 🧪

Speech of a lifetime from @governor.ca.gov, who truly met the moment tonight. I've been critical of Newsom in the past, but this is what we need to hear from governors and elected officials across the nation right now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXQQ...

JFC. This is only going to get worse.

BREAKING NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Democratic Rep. LaMonica McIver indicted on charges of ‘forcibly impeding’ immigration officers at New Jersey detention facility.

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

“Fix bayonets”

Footage of Trump-Vance administration agents arresting Newark Mayor Ras Baraka (Baraka is seen at the beginning in a brown coat and black cap)

Hopefully she’s learned her lesson that, here in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave, expressing an opinion in a newspaper can get you thrown in jail.

As mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka has a responsibility to ensure that facilities operating in the city are adhering to laws that protect the safety and wellbeing of occupants and residents.
