New: We got an internal ICE document revealing its $100 million ad plan to bring in 14,000 new hires: deals with "tactical" influencers; ads to gun & military buffs; and geo-targeting phones around NASCAR races and gun shows. A "wartime recruitment" mode with paramilitary branding: wapo.st/44QrP5j

People often ask why Democrats don’t have something like TurningPoint USA — so before the year ends, let me introduce you to Voters of Tomorrow. We’re on campuses across the country, organizing over 10,000 Gen Z members to engage our generation. 🧵THREAD

Things we learn: 1. Bovino's existence is the result of chain migration, which MAGA wants to ban 2. His family arrived legally under an immigration law MAGA wants to repeal 3. His father killed a woman while driving drunk, a crime for which MAGA aims to deport immigrants And much more. Read it.

Quite an announcement video from @crockett.house.gov www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...

Two independent studies found that AI chatbots were better at persuading voters than political ads. The most persuasive bots also lied the most. This is something that humans working in psyops have known for decades. AI is psyops at scale. www.technologyreview.com/2025/12/04/1...

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

George Will: "Pete Hegseth seems to be a war criminal. Without a war. An interesting achievement. ... The killing of the survivors by this moral slum of an administration should nauseate Americans. A nation incapable of shame is dangerous, not least to itself" www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Well, this is exhibit number one in any lawsuit challenging a new travel ban on unconstitutional animus grounds.

Wow. BBC journalists are now not even allowed to report the censored line from my Reith Lecture, that Trump is “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” You can hear how carefully they’re forced to tiptoe around it. So chilling...

ABOUT DAMN TIME!!! 👏👏👏 Dems on the Oversight Committee launched a tracking system “to hold the Trump Administration accountable” for ICE/DHS fed abuses and misconduct. View what’s been documented so far or submit a new report: bit.ly/tellonice #TellOnICE #StopICE #ICEwatch #ICEraid #50501Movement

I posted a montage of 19 clips last week of Trump making personal attacks against female reporters in just the last few months. Now we have #20.

Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with: -No casus belli -No authorization from Congress -No allies or international support -No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela -No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout

@bloomberg.com’s compelling report following a long-term resident through several detention centers before his deportation to Honduras reveals the staggering cost of this administration’s inhumane detention-and-deportation campaign www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

Raleigh is the new Chicago with regard to the ICE invasion and Trumps federal agents because it is a Democratic voting stronghold that Trump wants to control during the next Midterm Elections as a trial for 2028. apnews.com/article/char...

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

We’re not going to “fix the Democrats’ brand” by doing TikToks or launching pods. The brand is a direct reflection of our elected officials. If we want to purge our weak branding, we have to purge the weak Dems. I’m looking forward to a robust primary cycle and new Democrats who know how to fight.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Never forget who sold us out: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

One source witnessed an FBI analyst have a breakdown while viewing the Epstein files. The analyst has kids the same age as the girls in the videos they were reviewing. I’ll cover this and more today at 3:30 PT / 6:30 PM ET here: youtube.com/live/hEi77Ib...

NEW: EXCLUSIVE: I spoke to sources at FBI and DOJ that reviewed the Epstein files. It’s worse than the photos. I’ll let you know what they said today at 3:30 PM PT / 6:30 PM ET on @meidastouch.com. Link to show: www.youtube.com/live/hEi77Ib...

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential. www.reuters.com/world/us/usd...

Did you know that while the Trump Administration is cancelling 10% of commercial flights at 40 airports starting today, they are still letting all private jet flights (12% of all US air traffic) fly as normal?

Average SNAP benefit per person is less than $200. Elon has received over $38 billion of our tax payer dollars. But go on about soda Karen.

serious note: they're gonna try 5x harder to sabotage the midterms after tonight and we're gonna have to organize on a literally historic scale to stop them

ProPublica is a national treasure living up to its name. Speaking truth both to power and to us all.

It would take the average earner about 26,000 years to become a billionaire Billionaires do not earn their wealth, they collect it Great video embedded in this article about the necessity of taxing the super rich, to prevent societal breakdown

Is it cancel culture when they threaten to kill you? www.nj.com/news/2025/10...

These freaks keep getting on TV talking about opposing antifa and how they believe antifa wants to destroy them, and not a single person in mainstream media has asked or commented on what is the opposite of antifascism and who is threatened by antifascists

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

We're letting a country that funded terrorists that killed service members build an airbase on American soil? WTAF!!

Adventures in framing: Headline presenting this as a real-world question. Rather than as another sign of deepening vortex of narcissistic delusion and detachment from reality.

Independent Journalism is worth every penny. In April I finally cancelled my WaPo sub & instead started a paid sub to @marisakabas.bsky.social. Today, ACLU of CO and other local lawyers filed a lawsuit on behalf of their clients against Noem, DHS, & ICE. Marisa's work was cited in the footnotes.

Bloomberg research found wholesale electricity up ~270% in areas near data centers It doesn't seem like nearly enough people are taking it seriously One A.I. image isn't too much energy, but 5 million videos? Per day/hour/minute whatever. It's not sustainable www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

My neighborhood today.

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

This is who @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social is. Brilliant. Fearless. I fucking hate typing this shit out: Free Eman. Amplify amplify amplify please.

“.. If victims disobeyed an order .., Taylor and Brannon punished the victims with public humiliation, .. sleep deprivation, physical assaults, and threats of divine judgment in the form of sickness .. and eternal damnation.” @craigtimes.bsky.social #Florida www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’” It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

Pro tip: If someone tells you a worm was nibbling on their brain, you probably shouldn't be taking medical advice from them.

If we’re going to have Chinese style autocracy in the US, I’d also like the renewable energy infrastructure, high speed rail, electric vehicles, investment in science, and good food.
