Trump files late-night appeal to overturn 34-count felony conviction

In Chicago, children and families have been traumatized by an immigration enforcement action involving tear gas.

If I’m Tylenol, I would LOVE to get to the discovery phase and reveal the utter lunacy behind RFK Jr.’s claims.

i want america to be this crazy about literacy

No comparison. When Biden so much as tripped, it was a week-long story. When Trump has no idea where he is and drifts off mid-event— media silence. This isn’t the first time. What’s up?!

“Authorities detained [Randall Gamboa] in Dec, in TX, where he “entered ICE custody. For months, he spoke daily w/ relatives thru video calls & showed no signs of illness.” Contact abruptly ended in June. In Sept, the US returned him to Costa Rica in a “vegetative” state. He has since died. 1/

It really says something that a judge has to order federal agents to not hunt down children on Halloween

My mantra for the last 9 months: Their incompetence may save us

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP. A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify. I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone? Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate. They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.

This is amazing. And it’s truly the stuff of nightmares.

I had not thought of this - a free fridge for perishables. What a great idea! Here's the one for Denver: denvercommunityfridges.com

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121. #epstein

they dont want you to read. they don't want you to imagine. they don't want you to understand. they don't want you to question. they dont want you to relate. they want what your body can do for them, the words that it can speak and the labor they can steal and the resentment they can redirect

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

Cops "can't do anything" due to this racist sign being on private property, so time to block this with the biggest school spirit sign ever on school property, school mascot out 5 days a week sign blocking and handing out candy, having the high school band perform with strategic tuba placement, etc.

this is exactly what's happening

This is a DC area food bank that has helped laid off and unpaid government workers. They need help. If you have a few bucks to spare consider this charity. www.capitalareafoodbank.org?utm_referrer...

Since just last night folks on here have raised over a $1000 (which provides over 10,000 meals) for this #FoodBankChallenge! Feeding America is a nationwide network of over 200 food banks - their site has a directory if folks want to donate locally! teamfeed.feedingamerica.org/participants...

I missed the part of the New Testament where Jesus says to starve the poor. Thankfully we have a government that brought Christianity back, correcting my misunderstanding.

In fairness, the Supreme Court’s Republican appointees regularly “hallucinate” bogus facts without using AI. The praying coach ruling shows that Gorsuch doesn’t need a sloppy robot to make shit up that’s directly refuted by the record!

The 18th-century shift from militaries raised privately by nobles to standing armies financed by taxes is one of the central moves in the creation of the modern state. Trump is dialing it back to feudalism. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/24/u...

RIP June Lockhart, 1925-2025

ICE has been cracking down hard across the vast expanse of the greater Chicago area, and I wrote a little bit about what you need to understand about what it’s like here now. Plus, I compiled some resources for locals to get alerts and whistles. dansinker.com/posts/202…

WATCH: Trump blatantly lies that Canada faked the Reagan anti-tariffs ad (they didn’t) and claims Reagan supported tariffs (he didn’t) With receipts

Pretty wild that the Republican Party apparently now hates Ronald Reagan — and everything he stood for — and is actively trying to destroy his actual legacy.

How much has 🤡 made as 47? $1,802,171,655 and increasing literally every second. But also his net worth has increased 7.5B since he became President. BILLION!!!!! 🤬🤮🤬🤮🤬🤮 CAP Action just released this incredible Cashing in on the Presidency tracker⬇️ Thanks @chopwatercarrywood.bsky.social #MomSky

I think Cory Doctorow really put it best Conservatives think everything in the past was different from what is really was because they are remembering it from the viewpoint of childhood naïveté

‼️RELEASE the EPSTEIN FILES‼️

girding one’s butthole

if I was a therapist I would just say old blues lyrics. Why you chasin ghosts that pay no rent?

If you travel around your city using public transit, why not print out copies of Megan's "How to Report ICE" in your city and hand those out? It's a simple way to inform people. drive.google.com/drive/folder... - I distributed some to folks on the bus today and they were all grateful to receive them

When my kids were like, 2-4 years old….they also pouted and acted like babies.

“They haven’t said what I was stopped for!” = zero due process There won’t ever be some formal announcement—but please understand, The Rule of Law is dead and buried in the United States.

shit looks real bleak sometimes and I don’t want to downplay how bad it is but also we had seven million people show up to protests last weekend there are more of us than there are of them and I am simply not ready to throw in the towel

IL Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias is warning federal immigration agents that swapping/altering license plates during Trump's ICE raids is against the law & "will not be tolerated." A Plate Watch Hotline has been implemented for people to report cases of license plate tampering: (312) 814-1730

A "golden age" to the gop means a $250 million ballroom being build for the president's vanity & $150 million being spent for the president's golfing trips taking priority over starving Americans. That speaks volumes about this administration. #Pinks

Watch my supercut of things Mike Johnson doesn’t know. You can see the whole show here: www.youtube.com/live/Ams4OLn...

Since the House is in recess why don't Democrats interview Jack Smith on their own, in public and televise it on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow as moderator?

Oregonians, we need your help. ICE activity is increasing in our communities. If you see something, report it to PIRC's hotline (1-888-622-1510) and get your phone out to record it.

By the way, if you think I’m overstating things, the U.S. once had to tear down the entire embassy chancery in Moscow, and rebuild it (for a cool quarter-billion or so) because the place was bugged to hell.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

It is a wild ride to occasionally pop on the Fox News page (wear a mask, set a timer and flee before you catch the brain rot) and see how much of what's going on is simply not reported there. The top story yesterday was still Kirk. Old folks and other Foxers are incredibly disconnected.
