Just to be very clear: The Trump DOJ is stealing $1.2 million of your money to gift one of Trump’s cronies, who pled guilty to the crimes he was charged with, and whose suit against the government had already been tossed by a judge.

reported ICE presence at the Mall of America today "Seen near Log Chute ride at Nickelodeon Universe. Agent wearing normal clothes, with badge in the middle of chest. He stopped a woman, asked her for US ID and raised his voice."

Ending sanctions on a country we are currently at war with

The little vest grabbing thing they all do... we've gotta get a name for that and make it as socially acceptable as jacking off in public as soon as possible.

Oh hey, it's snowing

The Mueller report should have been not only the end of Trump but the end of the Republican Party from rump to snout, and it's only one of maybe 1000 things that should have been that. What's needed now is a confrontation with uncomfortable truth and a meaningful lasting reckoning and reformation.

The US-Israel war on Iran is a disaster for the climate, according to an analysis that finds it is draining the global carbon budget faster than 84 countries combined.

someday this mewling pile of crybaby shit will also die and when he does there will be scolds who try to shame participants in the global celebration and when that happens i want you to remember and repeat these four words: “oh DO fuck off”

However much John Roberts cloaks him in unaccountability, doing this remains a very serious federal crime and stories about it should say so.

Awful. A teenager, dead by suicide in an ICE detention center. There is now a crisis of suicide inside the detention system; I have never seen anything like it. Suicide has happened before, but they were very rare. This is the third or fourth this year.

An immigration judge has ended asylum claims for Liam Conejo Ramos and his family and ordered their removal. Their lawyer says an appeal is underway.

For some scale, NOAA's budget is $7 billion a year, the National Park Service's budget is $3 billion a year, and the entire federal public defender system costs under $2 billion a year. Heck, this is more than twice what ICE got for Trump's signature mass deportations last July.

Zelenskyy says Russia has already earned back $10 billion of its 2026 deficit in 2 weeks of the Iran war www.businessinsider.com/zelenskyy-ru...

I came for the ass kicking not knowing what the case was about. On top of these chucklefucks not doing their jobs properly, they want to give a very favorable plea deal to a pedophile.

I really hope he never knows a moment's peace. I hope he gets heckled everywhere he goes. I hope his neighbors shame the shit out of him. I hope he gets turned away from restaurants. I hope he stubs his toe at least once a day. I hope clear Legos find their way to his floors.

This is insane.

Impeach this mother fucker and release the Epstein files

It’s too bad we gutted the State Department and the National Security Council is just Marco Rubio running from one seat to another around an empty Situation Room conference table, talking to himself

This whole administration continues to be an object lesson in the catastrophic folly of letting unserious people have authority over serious things

republicans are in charge of everything and they are getting everything theyve ever wanted and doing everything theyve ever wanted and the world is on fire and the global world order is collapsing. is there a correlation? who can say

I really should have picked up some donuts yesterday. I did not stock up on comfort snacks for this storm.

Officials are normally presented with ceremonial swords or paintings or whatever. But these guys are so fucking stupid that foreign intelligence agencies can literally give them an "Honorary Electronic Communications Device for a Very Special Boi" and they fall for it every time.

Having intelligence, we must not act in ignorance. Having choice, we must not act without responsibility.

Can't sleep.

America runs on Hopefully™️

New in PN: DOJ nopes out of Ticketmaster antitrust suit "Thanks to the Trump administration’s corruption, a mafia-like monopoly survives, and Americans will continue to pay exorbitant fees to see live music. *Trump take ticket* … along with everything else."

How much money is your self respect worth?

👀 So much cackling will be going on if MTG loses. I don't know anything about that area and I'd assume it would go to someone like her or worse but I would still cackle. Out of spite. Sooo much spite.

I really love how loud and proud my daughter sings when she thinks I'm not listening

It looks like whatever is growing on Trump’s neck

It was a good night!

As a newly minted 40 yo the thing I have to do before concerts is STRETCH.

NEW: Believe it or not, it’s that time of year: the Wisconsin Supreme Court election is next month. Liberals have a huge opportunity: if they win, they can lock down the majority of this court thru 2030. That means they’d have it in the next presidential race, a big democracy guardrail. Share:

Heh heh heh

this should be the end of the Gavin Newsom 2028 discussion. the party has spoken, full stop

3 more sleep till Dropkick Murphys day

Who is this guy

Ah. Fuck. It's like living post 9/11 years over and over again. This is why we haven't done any of the high cost projects on our house yet. We need new windows, siding, and a driveway but what millennial would spend that money with trump as president!?

At the very least, it should be a NO based on morality, and a NO based on the fact that he didn't get approval. Do I think a congressional vote of NO would stop him? Idk. But I sure as hell wouldn't give him the gift of a yes vote just out of self respect.

we were probably all up last night staring at the ceiling with our own version of the same thought running on endless loop, but mine looked something like this: I hate these people to a degree that feels simultaneously corrosive to the soul, and also the only righteous response to this kind of evil

At times of war we're all the losers There is no victory
