signs like these are up all over Chicago cafes and storefronts (here, cafes in Brighton Park and Back of the Yards) warning ICE not to enter without a judicial warrant

I think about this a lot.

“Do you really expect Mamdani to get everything he’s promising done?” No. I’m sure a lot of what I want won’t happen. But I’m ready for someone who’s willing to actually fucking try rather than tell everyone why trying is pointless and must be saved for an undefined later moment

"we cant uninvent ai" no we cant but we couldnt uninvent nfts either and nobody gives a fuck about them anymore

They don’t even pretend to care. This is the only story. You can’t open the government if the House refuses to show up.

Periodic reminder that the saying is "one bad apple spoils the whole barrel."

Abolish. Fire. Prosecute.

I really think that we need to talk more about the fact that Republicans have basically quietly abolished the House of Representatives

Either this ends with some sort of truth and reconciliation process where a very large number of people go to prison for a very long time or we will take a short pause and then start doing it again, but worse.

It absolute is a crime. You can make a case for attempted murder. Also, this is the second REVERAND shot in the head with chemical Munitions by DHS agents since September

i’ve actually done this, and in addition, asked them what our process is if someone gets abducted while traveling for work. then offered to help answer that second question, so we can publish internal policy on it.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

“.. perhaps the most cruel and unlawful offense the Trump administration has perpetrated yet — freezing funding already enacted into law to feed hungry Americans while he shovels tens of billions of dollars .. to Argentina and into his ballroom.” @politico.com #SNAP www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

The Dodgers hadn't given up 11 runs in a game before today since July 4.

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

I’m good with my taxes subsidizing social welfare for people who can’t afford food. I’m enraged with my taxes subsidizing corporate welfare to businesses that won’t pay a living wage.

every passing day, rightwingers are inventing new and unexpected ways to signal to the world they may be the dumbest iteration of humans so far

Funders of Trump's $300M ballroom and East Wing destruction include: -Amazon -Apple -Coinbase -Lockheed Martin -Google -Meta -Microsoft -Palantir -Tobacco companies -The Adelson family Don't forget — they're not just buying a ballroom. They're buying Trump's favor.

"Magda Goebbels made a great strudel"

dear US friends, when a sitting president (re)builds the seat of government, it almost always means the president has no intention of leaving at the end of term. your African friends with decades of experience

I will repeat this every single day for the next three years: Any Democrat running for president in 2028 must pledge to immediately tear down/bulldoze/demolish Trump’s ballroom and fully restore the East Wing and any other piece of the People’s House Trump has or will destroy.

The fact that former republicans like Joe Walsh, Bill Kristol and Rick Wilson say stuff like this more aggressively than any notable Democrat - past or present - speaks volumes.

basically all this shit is Roberts' fault, because the immunity made Trump feel like he could break the law as much as he wants without consequences. bsky.app/profile/jayw...

i think anyone who gives him money should be arrested probably

ABC News pulled the satellite imagery of the White House comparing Sept. 26 to today. abcnews.go.com/Politics/new...

Picture of the East Wing demolition of the White House taken on my flight out of DCA.

Food banks were already struggling to keep with demand. Then, Trump slashed $1 billion from crucial USDA programs supporting them. Now, thanks to his shutdown, millions of Americans in at least 25 states will lose access to food stamps on November 1st. The perfect storm of cruelty.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The SS was filled to the brim with society's rejects who were too stupid and incompetent to get any other sort of position. This is a feature, not a bug of authoritarian regimes. Incompetence breeds atrocities.

he's knocking down the literal white house and illegally murdering people by dropping bombs on international boats and the government has been shut down for weeks and it's just like....yep

Since I’m seeing the comparisons again, your regular reminder that comparing Trump to Marie Antoinette is unkind. Marie Antoinette helped convince France to back the colonists during the Revolutionary War and was thus a significant positive for America.

Remembering nearly a decade ago when folks were admonishing people about how punching nazis made you "just as bad as them" while platforming nazis in suits and shitty SS haircuts through profile features and calling all of it the "alt-right," WE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE FUCK YOU WERE DOING

Breaking: The Supreme Court is now officially considering taking up a case overturning same-sex marriage. This is the first time in history the court has considered rolling back this right.

It looks like the East Wing is pretty much gone

He lost the 2020 election. He knew it. He lied about it. And now he’s demanding your money because knowingly lying didn’t make him President.

If you are arresting someone for playing the Imperial March you are literally a stormtrooper!

The brutality. The corruption. The lies. Everything is on full display — and many Americans are beginning to learn an important lesson. Watch.

I’m not sure that the Democrat’s “Comms and Strategy” class in DC have really thought through what it says about them and their leaders if Zohran wipes this election without an ounce of their help. They seem to think being quiet is smart now, but wouldn’t it just illustrate how useless they are?

I pray that a future president if we still have a democracy will erase every trace of Trump's existence. Raze every edifice he's built; strip his name from everything, restore the White House as if he never lived there & turn Mar-a-Lago into a Black, LGBTQ, women's, AAPI & immigrant history museum.

Looks as if Trump is saying no Democrat will be allowed to win another national election—and he will use the FBI, the DOJ, and the CIA to make sure of that. This is a full-scale attack on American democracy, and every Republican, CEO, and conservative mouthpiece who doesn't object is complicit.

I don’t want to body shame but why is my cat shaped like this he looks like a discarded muppet

eddie is normally very cute i promise (adopt former barn cats they’re the best)

FYI :“Destruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.” Awaiting law enforcement.

This exactly how Black folks feel about the Confederate flag

There is no difference between Trump destroying the East Wing and using a wrecking ball on the Washington Monument or Smithsonian. Just because he (temporarily) lives there doesn't give him the right to demolish the White House without Congressional approval.

Again: you can’t do this legally. That’s not how permitting or contracting works. A normal person in the US would face consequences UP TO LOSING THE PROPERTY for doing this. We all know they’re doing illegal shit but I want to make it more known what normies would face in the same situation
