Question for @sarahtaber.bsky.social Do you have graphic showing that #ICE taking away our neighbors who grow, pick & package our food leads to higher costs? Can you explain AGAIN WHY multi-millionaire farmers voted for Trump & what they get out of his labor policies, vs what we, the public get?

Religion note: Remember that pastor who was arrested protesting an ICE detention facility outside Chicago recently? The one who was photographed on the ground as officers arrested him? That's Rev. Michael Woolf, and this is his church.

Okay @erinbiba.bsky.social it’s time for my second-most anticipated annual thread: Cats in Christmas Trees (and Battling Menorahs). Starting off strong with Donut.

Fox’s Greg Gutfeld on double tap boat strike: “It's just better for us to kill them in the ocean, make them shark feed, be done with it”

you don't have to love it but if someone with a new baby asks you wear a propeller beanie, you can just do it

There is something very wrong with Megyn Kelly.

I wonder if knowledge of the double tap prompted the six members of congress to make that ad, and that's what made Trump and Hegseth so angry about it.

This is akin to torturing-small-animals levels of sociopathy.

Earlier this year, we documented nearly 50 incidents of immigration officers shattering car windows to make arrests — a tactic experts say was rarely used before Trump took office. ICE claims its officers use a “minimum amount of force.” You can judge for yourself.

Just once I'd like to hear a TV news anchor say, "Sir, that's not true, and if you keep insisting it is, we're going to end this interview to protect our viewers from further disinformation. And we won't invite you back."

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

The initial strike was illegal as the US isn’t at war with Venezuela and Congress has not sanctioned it. The so called ‘Double Tap’ and Hegseth allegedly saying ‘kill them all’ is clearly a war crime or murder. To take no quarter and kill survivors who posed no threat is evil and must be punished.

All this talk of Trump and Hegseth commiting war crimes by bombing boats and declaring kill them all seems overblown, its not like they systematically bombed every hospital in Venezuela by saying that drug dealers were hiding out underneath them, that would be a crazy war crime to ignore.

ICE is using Uber stickers in order to disguise themselves and kidnap people. Spread this for awareness!

Wow! Just wow. @minplosion.bsky.social @histerical.bsky.social I'm fascinated by the "logic" behind the parent's comments. @jensenko.bsky.social documentary, The Brainwashing of My Father, showed there is a way to get your parents back, but you have to cut off their 24/7 exposure to Fox.

Toby McGuire is the best Peter Parker. He captured the Steve Ditko look and style perfectly.

MAJOR: The Trump Administration has been caught lying about the D.C. shooting suspect. The truth: He was vetted by Trump. He had a CIA badge, worked with the CIA in Afghanistan, and granted asylum by Trump in April. Spread this everywhere. Subscribe to support my work, even on Thanksgiving:

The makers of the #Turkey Deep Fat fryer method got a huge assist in selling them from fire departments that make videos of dropping frozen turkeys in them causing massive fires. Those videos REALLY sell the process to the men folk. "Outside cooking with a chance of a fiery explosion? I'm in!"

I hated my Grandma's #Thanksgiving spinach side dish. She'd put a block of frozen spinach in a pan & boil the shit out of it. Then she'd plop the slimy-stinky-black goo on my plate & say "Don't you want to be strong like Popeye?" My 6 yr old self thought "Not if I have to eat this smelly shit!

for everyone visiting their parents who are getting weird ideas from the machine they never turn off, and it's getting harder to ignore them, and fixing the machine will not solve the problem: "curb" or "kerb" are both fine if they will notice it on the curb, they may not check the recycling bin

there's that now-famous internet line about how climate change means watching clips of climate disasters on people's phones until you're the one filming it, and it feels like there's some parallel about watching fascist deportation goon squad videos until it's filmed on the streets you recognize

there’s this constant mythology about the elusive centrist voter who isn’t represented by the media but whenever they use examples of people not represented by the media it’s always people like alan dershowitz who are still represented in the media and almost exclusively so!

Greene spewed the worst vile poison at the left for years. After two weeks of being on the receiving end of that right wing vitriol, she's throwing in the towel. Lame. Lame and weak.

Yeah, I'm tired of some people (I'm looking at you Jonathan Karl) excusing Trump's verbal attacks on elected officials & JOURNALISTS. He was just on Jen Paski & said that "We've seen this before from Trump" SO? This should be grounds for impeachment, yet again!

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

I get people wanting to defend friends from false accusations, but at some point it's time to STOP DEFENDING THE PERPERTRATOR & TALK ABOUT THE VICTIMS! Which leads me to this GREAT video by @skepchick.org about Lawrence Krauss defending #Epstein & rich & popular men. youtu.be/VNLdyWPAz18?...

“Quiet, Piggy” would be fitting for his tombstone.

I need "Stats are down but he played great" to make it into the lexicon.

Alan Dershowitz referred to himself as an "evil legal ethics professor" at Harvard, so we can describe him that way without fear of a defamation lawsuit. This is important because #Dershowitz sued people like Giuffre's lawyer, David Bodies, for defamation. @redpencilscript.bsky.social #Epstein

Legal advisors to witnesses know how to phrase things so if they are questioned under oath they won't get busted for perjury. "I don't recall." is a classic. What do you call it when someone like Alan Dershowitz tells the witness to lie? @emptywheel.bsky.social @glennkirschner.bsky.social

i used to think the lyric was ‘i wanna rock and roll all night / and part of every day’ and i remember thinking, honestly that sounds reasonable

Always with the projection, they are.

When I heard that #GhislaineMaxwell is getting "concierge" treatment in prison I wondered, "Does that mean she gets tickets to Hamilton?" #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

It’s been a year to the day we bought (and then didn’t, for reasons we still don’t fully know) InfoWars. We’re still trying. In the year since, we built The Onion into one of the biggest newspapers in the United States. I’m so proud of this place. I’m proud we do hard stuff. Thank you for caring.

Just now @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com asked what freezes Trump's Twitter fingers? Maybe his Chief of Staff got this for him.

What a great day for finding out that a lot of things people thought were conspiracies are actually backed up by emails that are like hey pedo, let us pedo together in pedoland on the second day of the pedo month

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far. So much work remains to be done.

this is the worst night of my life

Yesterday, when Bovino announced ICE would be returning to Little Village today, some of us donated and fundraised to buy out street vendors in the neighborhood. This morning, volunteers hit the streets at 6:30 am, looking for vendors to buy out. Tamales make an excellent breakfast.

This is a huge victory that should be broadcast nationwide in all the major outlets. Big big big deal. I have been following this. Make them pay

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave. It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

bring back shame!

A lot of people who would rather be broke or have their businesses fail than an illegal immigrant get health care, to the point where they’ll accept the former when the latter isn’t even on the table www.reuters.com/world/us/fed...

Went to Kaiser Main in Oakland because it was the only pharmacy in the SF Bay area that had the drugs I need. "Why yes officer, I AM in Downtown Oakland to buy drugs." I'm just grateful I HAVE health insurance & can get the drugs at ALL! #HealthCare #HealthInsurance

"They like to inflict pain on those people. And they know that if they hold those people hostage & threaten to hurt them, Democrats will eventually break & give them whatever. We've fallen for that way too often." @driftglass.bsky.social on @nicolesandler.bsky.social GOP uses #Empathy against us.

Please be patient and don’t get hungry while this matter weaves its way through the courts.

Not sure the people with hungry babies will care what's standard legal procedures.
