As I've said before, what we're dealing with fundamentally here, and have been dealing with for some time, is evil. Our political norms and political media prohibit talking about a mainstream political faction this way. But it is the truth. It needs to be known and it needs to be said.

i have begun to use “wicked” to describe these people. it is old fashioned but captures the active nature of their malevolence. they are *agents* of evil

In San Antonio today, plainclothes ICE officers (not masked this time) arrested, handcuffed, and zip-tied a family of five (yes, ALL of them, including the little children) coming out of their immigration court hearing — which ICE had just had dismissed. www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/a...

If you believe burning children alive is ‘self-defense’, you have no red line and you’re a danger to society.

I wrote up the tariff ruling. There are well-established ways in which Congress has delegated the ability to impose tariffs to presidents. Trump got impatient, took an untested path, and got nothing. Thank the flying spaghetti monster for incompetency. prospect.org/politics/202...

“The court’s ruling also means that the government may have to pay back duties it has already collected. “Anybody that has had to pay tariffs so far will be able to get them refunded,” said Ilya Somin” www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

Nothing says America like this “Level 2: Advanced Church Safety Team Training” class held in Murfreesboro, Tennessee

yes. they literally blame higher education for a social order that doesn’t give unquestioned deference to people like themselves

You don't need to be a prophet. Images like this - of starved Palestinians hammed into fenced cages by Israel - will be remembered for generations as hideous evidence of a terrible crime. And history will remember not just those who cheered it on, but those who stayed silent.

#Israeli media published a drone image of the #American lsraeli Aid distribution Hub,showing Palestinians caged within fenced routes,overcrowded as they waited to receive their weekly calorie-limited aid package. #wakeupworld I can see this coming all over the world. #freepalestine #Gaza #genocide

BREAKING: An Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter has killed at least 25 Palestinians, mostly women and children, Gaza's Health Ministry said. The school was hit three times while people slept, setting their belongings ablaze, they added.

#AbolishIce !!!!!

@aoc.bsky.social Democrats need to start messaging #AbolishIce

"Do you all ever get tired of being on the wrong side of history?" Yes. Fuck. Them. Up.

Moral clarity is such a rare and fleeting thing these days

Hasan needs to file a defamation suit against Jonathan Greenblatt.

youtu.be/zIRiLXPlCTw?... Brilliantly broken down and explained. Please watch as AOC explains the *actual* waste, fraud, and abuse of the healthcare industry in 5 minutes. I just love her to death.

We need more Democrats confronting these lawless fascists this way and making them turn so red that you think their heads might explode. Thank you, @warren.senate.gov.

I went from laughing at her being boo’ed to sobbing at the “free Mahmoud” chants. Best 2 minute video.

It’s not just incorrect, but the opposite—the antithesis—of habeas corpus for the president to have the unfettered, unreviewable “right” to cast people into exile in the torture chambers of foreign autocrats.

An absolutely outrageous level of ignorance for the SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY.

What movie is this from?

More than 20 people died. Sure would've been nice to have weather forecasters on duty instead of fired. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/w...

Sometimes get your dog a puppy it ends up being the best thing you could do

A woman is dead, kept alive as an incubator. Her family can’t grieve. This isn’t pro-life. It’s control. It’s cruelty. It’s stripping women of agency...even in death. If you support this, you’re complicit. Stand up. Speak out. Fight back. Or admit you’re okay with our girls having no rights.

These people are sick. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

This is genocide. My God.

OK, this is incoherent given ICE's policies and practices. Also, I'm pretty sure this guy is three sheets to the wind in this interview.

I hope you'll all join me in demanding that Kristi Noem be given all the due process protections she's currently denying to immigrants when she's tried for kidnapping, torture, false imprisonment, civil rights violations, and crimes against humanity.
