Mike Johnson advocating for kidnapping children. Any Dem worth a shit will make it clear that anyone can buy a gaiter and a fake ICE vest. And he's saying go willingly with them. There is no reason a federal employee shouldn't have to show their face. And this should be an easy one to win.

Whoops!

A quick thought on “smuggling” vs. “trafficking,” two terms which Bondi used somewhat interchangeably. Generally, people pay to be smuggled; it’s a service. Trafficking, by contrast, is involuntary; no one wants to be trafficked. That distinction is key in thinking through the allegations.

Abrego Garcia being returned to the USA not 24 hrs after matty y went to the mattyresses to argue it was a classic example of a lost cause is the perfect distillation of the value of matty y as a political observer

💥 @repdangoldman.bsky.social speaks out about his confrontation with “plain-clothes ICE agents” wearing masks. “You can’t require Columbia University to ban masks in order to get federal funding while you turn around and have federal government enforcement law enforcement agents wearing masks.”

The blowup between Musk and Trump is a perfect excuse to report on the list of 130 benefits Musk got with his access. www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/06/t...

That’s right. You shouldn’t have.

Racist to the bone. And the lies and smears are spectacular. www.rawstory.com/pam-bondi-26...

Although many hoped otherwise, we do not seem to be returning to a world in which the center left and the center right compete over tax rates or budgets. Every election is now existential www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

M*sk: "Hey Stephen, have any nudes of your wife?" Stephen Miller: "No." M*sk: "Want to buy one?"

Mike Johnson just gave free reign to vigilante groups like the Proud Boys and Oathkeepers to start acting like pseudo cops, accosting people and abducting them And if they are criminally charged for their actions, Donald Trump has already proven he’ll pardon them What a time to be an American

If you strip away the egos and shitposting, the Trump-Musk feud is really an argument over how comprehensively to screw over poor and working people—over how best to make our society a meaner, crueler, less equal, more savage place. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1962...

Elise Stefanick somehow got my phone and email and has been spamming with fundraising asks. I’m diligently clicking on every link she sends to make sure they keep spending money to text me.

This b*tch just won’t quit. She doesn’t regret a thing. When asked if she would do anything differently if she could go back, her answer: NO. She also tried to martyr herself by saying she goes to ‘abusive’ town halls because she believes in civil discourse. 1/2 l.smartnews.com/p-lBvo94Y/Jf...

I get that everyone in the media enjoyed treating musk as a quirky superhero genius, but we all know he's a mass murdering Nazi now? like, it may be time to rethink the cute puff pieces.

At some point a Gestapo soldier is going to pull the trigger and it’s going to go sideways. Every raid. Every fascist attack on society brings that reality closer.

This right here 🎯

This is beyond disgusting. "And then Trump standing there with a stain on the front of his pants and three or four girls kind of bent over in laughter — they’re topless, too — pointing at Trump’s pants." www.rawstory.com/trump-epstei...

Just like the autism registry and trans bans, the Trump regime is saying one thing, doing another, and most media is taking them at their word.

Trump can't have it both ways. Either the economy is not only strong but "hot," and therefore doesn't need the Fed to stimulate it further. Or the economy is weak and struggling, and therefore the Fed needs to intervene and cuts rates. Which is it?

More of this, please. Continue to burn these Vichy firms to the ground.

Folks run ICE, FBI, and cops off the streets of Minneapolis

Nope.

Chaos at a US Federal Courthouse as ICE abducts a man moments after his immigration hearing, people bravely tried to block the abduction. #3E

Trump Planning To Extend TikTok Deadline—Again: WSJ

Just wow.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Yea, I think all that President Musk propaganda, worked

Wait, so did Trump speak to Elmo today or not?

Sums it up.

Zelensky responds to Russia’s massive overnight strikes: “Russia hasn’t changed its tactics—another large-scale attack on our cities and civilian life. Dozens wounded, 3 rescuers killed. Russia must be held accountable. The world can stop this—by pressing Russia now. Inaction means complicity.”

Thousands of words already about Trump-Musk tiff. I've seen no discussion about how taxing Musk would significantly improve the bill. Only memes about what it means that two such emotional creatures wield so much power. Almost no comment abt Trump's promise to abuse his position for revenge.

We don’t need to back off the American Gestapo and we don’t need to respect its agents. People exercising state violence are not entitled to anonymity. Nor are the people directing the state violence.

So the answer is yes, Mike Johnson is okay with federal agents not identifying themselves when rounding up people off the streets.

I agree 💯.

And some say women are too emotional for positions of leadership 🙄

WE NEED TO SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGE BOTH SIDES HERE
