All part of the FOX Entertainment Network creation of news that isn’t true to feed their uneducated right wing audience.

Went to the farm earlier. Saw the most coquettish pig you've ever met.

underrated part of this is that stoller very clearly has no idea what "the passive voice" is

Be there. Saturday, October 18th. www.nokings.org

Imagine making six figures to not do anything you were entrusted to do. …getting paid to not work while thousands of civil servants around you were getting fired. …betraying those who counted on you to represent them, all to appease a wannabe dictator. The GOP Congress is a helluva thing.

A rare moment of integrity for Stephanopolos, cutting off the liar for trump, HD Vance for not answering questions. How many other answers and other bits of MAGA propaganda did he allow unchecked, before he pulled the plug on this liar?

Reading Thiel, Yarvin, Peterson et al. makes you realise what passes for intellectual iconoclasm these days is all absolute bollocks. Why anyone gives any of these people the time of day let alone credibility is baffling.

Today in Portland, a fed shooting pepper balls from the roof of the ICE facility was so eager to aim for people’s heads, that after shooting one photographer in the head and another in the upper arm, they accidentally shot a DHS agent in the head. This photo shows the moment of impact;

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

Border Patrol “attempted to arrest a plumber working inside a Logan Heights home but left empty-handed after the homeowner refused them entry. The homeowner told agents she would not allow them inside because the warrant they presented did not include her address and lacked a judge's signature.”

Wonderful column by Margaret Sullivan at The Guardian on the terrible, weird choice of Bari Weis by CBS News www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Hi Sally. When Weiss published a supposed expose on the death of George Floyd, a veteran criminal justice reporter showed in deep detail that the piece was not just wrong but filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations. Weiss did not retract the piece. What do you think of that?

BREAKING: President Obama issues a stark warning—authoritarianism isn’t creeping anymore, it’s sprinting. Around the world, leaders are silencing dissent, controlling media, and twisting justice into a political weapon. His message is clear: democracy won’t survive if we stay silent.

federal agents stealing children and sending them south. where have i heard about that before?

Per WSJ, the Trump regime and Bannon are bragging they’re “ruling Congress with an iron fist” and that it is “largely ceremonial” like the Russian Duma. Shameful. Not what the founders intended. 🇺🇸 @MarshaBlackburn @RepTimBurchett @AndyOgles www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

People are really overreacting to us building the Qataris an air base in Idaho. It’s only there for defensive reasons in case Montana or Wyoming invade them.

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning. There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.
