A very offline cousin sent this to fam group chat. This story is breaking containment.

This is an interesting conversation, but somebody is gonna have to do a much better job of explaining to me why farmers —who got exactly what they voted for— need bailouts because of tariffs but small business owners like me who DID NOT are just gonna be left ass-out. youtube.com/watch?v=FNH7...

Update: The Chicago clergy letter decrying ICE's actions and voicing a willingness on the part of clergy to put their "bodies on the line" to protest ICE has reached 250 signatures — and now includes multiple evangelical pastors/leaders of evangelical institutions in the area.

This shows in so many ways Halligan is unsuited to be United States Dogcatcher, let alone United States Attorney. She writes a reporter whining about reporting but not offering any actionable specific things the reporter got wrong. There's NO WAY that helps anything. /1

I ❤️ my hometown. Well done…

I felt seen. Introverts United at the ANTIFA Riot Sponsored by George Soros® in Carlsbad, CA

ANTIFA university professor giving the business to the master race.

stahhhhp it right now

Administrators at Indiana University baselessly fired the student media director and ordered the student paper to cease its print edition, so it'd sure be a shame if this excellent digital front page were to be widely shared today issuu.com/idsnews/docs...

Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.

Whoever said, “iOS 26 is really great and we should release it now,” should get a job in the Trump administration.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7." @timmiller.bsky.social talked to a veteran who ICE wrongly detained and brutalized

The war correspondents at KATU TV Cannel 2 in #Portland have set up a YouTube channel to livestream video from the front lines. Warning: You may die of boredom. www.youtube.com/live/zNASPLj...

This is encouraging. Californians understood the assignment. We got loud and spread the word on Prop 50. This is a fight against Republican anti-democratic tactics, but we still have to vote. Get those ballots in, early voting has started. We’re going to pass Prop 50.

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

In ruling that the government cannot deploy the National Guard in Portland A federal judge finds that president Trump lied “this Court concludes that the President did not have a ‘colorable basis’ to..federalize the National Guard..The President’s determination was simply untethered to the facts”

My letter writing campaign is simply to send as many DVDs of Django Unchained to Clarence Thomas as possible

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

HOLY SHIT

Five- stars for the review, zero stars for the pizza.

Subway needs to rename that fucking sandwich the “No true bill” so I know which one to DoorDash to DJT and his flunkies at DOJ and DHS. Prosecutors Fail to Obtain Indictment Against Man Who Threw Sandwich at Federal Agent www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/u...

Zelenskyy: In Mukachevo, Russians practically burned down American company producing electronics—home appliances, nothing military. Russians knew exactly where they lobbed the missiles. We believe this was a deliberate attack against American property and investments in Ukraine. US company ⬇️

“It’s a bit of an obscenity that I’m asked so much to speak on this subject because I happen to be Jewish and because I happened, as an infant, to have survived the Holocaust…Why aren’t we listening to the Palestinians?”

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA nypost.com/2025/08/08/u...

That last part though. 🇺🇸

The student newspaper. This fell. To the student. Newspaper.

Dems should fight on every front. If Texas steals 5 seats, Dem states should redistrict 30 GOP members out of their districts. We should insist DOJ release the entire Epstein File. Not only shouldn't we bring knives to a gun fight, if they bring pistols, we should bring machine guns.

"We're going to go after the welfare loafers and the criminal aliens" turned into "We're literally arresting a hardworking carpenter named Jesus"

"will visit golf courses" lol

Students of Columbia in 1776 tore down a statue of King George that was on campus when the declaration of independence was announced there(It was named Kings College) and melted it down to make musket balls. Today that same university sadly decided to hand its balls over to a would be modern king.

Full monologue here:

This is sublime.

Today, Los Angeles received its first honor of three Michelin Stars. The head chef of Somni, which received three, removed his jacket to reveal a t-shirt which read “immigrants feed America.”

In 80 seconds, AOC has completely dismantled the #BigUglyBill. Dems should turn this into a prime time campaign ad NOW. “This Bill is a deal with the devil”💥 @aoc.bsky.social

Wow wow wow. Gentlemoops, I give you Missouri State Representative Raychel Proudie. Serving up some truth, piping hot, to her GOP colleagues on their BS tax-break bill for the wealthy. Testify, sib. www.youtube.com/shorts/MdqCs...

On this day in 1863, a college professor from Maine saved America at the Battle of Gettysburg when he and his men executed a tricky little maneuver to mow down the Confederates on Little Round Top. Re-enactment of the engagement here: youtu.be/rm8BwioDwXI

Every damn word🔥 “How is it that you can explain that we still are running up the credit card and we have nothing to show for it except for the fact that we won’t have food on the table? And we won’t have healthcare.” - @repjasmine.bsky.social

I love this one. Thought you might as well❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰 @lisaguerrero.bsky.social @morgfair.bsky.social @harttandsoul.bsky.social @nicholehiltz.bsky.social @sweetstella.bsky.social @alyssamilano.bsky.social This is how humanity must be & we must rid our world of those who see this as stupid or wrong!

🚨 🇺🇸 #ICEkidnappers grab two gardeners right off his front lawn—leave lawnmower running. "They left lawnmower going right here on my front lawn," homeowner said.

In Bell, CA an entire community stood up against ICE, including the local police and the fire dept. The fire truck appears to not allow ICE vehicles to move forward nor remain and pushes forward to escort them out. A police car also helped with escorting. /

This is incredible.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Man, it’s a good thing everyone decided they just couldn’t vote for that hysterical black lady last year. Otherwise, we might have ended up in another forever war and crashed the economy again. 🫩🫩🫩

if you don’t know the history of Dodger Stadium you can’t fully understand what unfolded today. thanks @chrislhayes.bsky.social for the opportunity to share it.
