West Virginia is warning that women who have a miscarriage could be charged with a crime unless they contact local police. Every woman in WV should call 911 every time they have a period. Gum up the system with malicious compliance. www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/h...

This is happening in CA right now. ICE is locked inside of a store. There is a military presence also. 930 Towne Ave Los Angeles. If you're out and about in the area stop by and shame the Gestapo. #SheShed www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjb2nWL9/

ICE waited until a woman’s lawyer went to the restroom then dragged her away. She fainted from stress and they dragged her unconscious body into the elevator, refusing medical attention.

Jessica Tarlov: “How can you actually sit here in comforts of our air conditioned studio or in your big nice house and be comfortable knowing that there are people not convicted of anything left to rot in a foreign prison?” Gutfeld: “He has been convicted.” Tarlov: “He has not.”

Pam Bondi is thug scum. The Attorney General making these comments about a defendant in a federal criminal case is lawless. This administration’s unethical hacks continue to demonstrate that they want to be deposits.

If a seven-year-old can’t walk to the store the fault lies not with the parents but with the community.

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.

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

Your bill is going to cut coverage for 11 million Americans and it’ll still cost more than universal healthcare. Healthcare is a human right, you absolute ghouls.

I think I’ve recognized that I don’t like Matt Yglesias because it makes me anxious when I can’t tell whether someone is mocking themselves or not

I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk. I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.

🚨BIG STORY: Senators put a line into the crypto bill requiring bankrupt banks to prioritize remunerating crypto investors over depositors. The provision could require banks to take cash from your savings account & use it to pay senators' crypto donors. www.levernews.com/cryptos-new-...

i'm starting to see some scoldy posts pointing out that we are laughing about a fire on the deck of our sinking ship and i have to be honest once the ship started sinking i decided i would take the laughs where i found them

today

And to think, Canada could have been a part of this well-run real grown-up country for the low-low price of $61-billion for a missile defence system that won't work

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

this is a day for those of us who have spent the last six months terminally online. this is for us and honestly, we deserve it.

🚨NEWS: Colorado Gov. Jared Polis is ordering his employees to help Trump's immigration crackdown & follow a secret Trump subpoena that his top labor official says illegally violates state privacy laws that Polis himself signed, according to court documents reviewed by The Lever.

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

A Minneapolis community surrounded ICE agents, telling them to “get the fuck out”. In the thread’s videos, you can see ICE detain someone and shove people around. Great work, Minneapolis ✊. Now, @governorwalz.mn.gov what are you going to do about this?

Thanks for the chat Professor! Everyone grab Lawless, it's a MUST-HAVE for navigating a dangerously rogue court...

I spoke with Jessiah Eberlin on Pondering Politics about SCOTUS, law, and ... LAWLESS: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, & Bad Vibes! Check it out: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-4b... And if you like the conversation ... bookshop.org/p/books/lawl...

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

Brave man and a brave television station.

Abrego Garcia’s lawyers are back in court with a brief that unstintingly puts the government on a collision course with the courts’ authority. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Scientists are already eyeing the exits; the hostility to international students could dry up a critical pipeline for a generation; and the balance of intellectual power could shift as other countries rush to fill the vacuum created by Trump’s nihilistic nativism. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Just heartsick and furious at this story. My god.

Billions in foreign real estate deals. $320M in crypto trading fees — and a private dinner with top buyers of his meme coin. $28M from Amazon for a Melania documentary. The list goes on... We're so numb to Trump profiting off the presidency that hardly anyone notices. Hello?

Math is hard... but Google is free.

Somehow not the most disturbing allegations in the article (about a different exec than the one pictured here): "He is alleged to have punched walls, mimed hitting staff, cracked a whip near colleagues’ faces and played with a cigarette lighter near workers, setting alight a man’s beard."

1. Too expensive, way too expensive, companies like Ticketmaster doing "Platinum" sales which is them literally scalping 2. Hard to get into and out of, uncomfortable, expensive 3. Festivals increasingly exploitative with different tiers 4. Massive festivals often poorly designed and executed

Folks in the EU, I highly recommend lending your signature to this! Game preservation needs it!

Louis DeJoy may be gone, but the Post Office is still under attack by corporate interests and privatizers. Millions of Americans rely daily on USPS's affordable rates and universal service. We must protect our public Postal Service.

This is a really important story, ESPECIALLY for the citizens of Memphis, TN. I definitely suggest giving this a watch. Corporations would sooner kills us, than make less of a profit. youtu.be/3VJT2JeDCyw?...

Telling working people who are fighting to save health care and food assistance for MILLIONS that everyone is going to die anyway is mind boggling. Congress should be working to expand essential services like Medicaid and SNAP, not gut them like the House’s budget would do.

Last month, after ICE agents arrested the mayor of Newark, a DHS official said on CNN that there would “likely be more arrests coming.” DHS police came close to delivering on that threat when they invaded the office of Rep. Jerry Nadler and handcuffed a staffer. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

RFK Jr. has bragged his “Make America Healthy Again” report, released last week, is based on “gold-standard” science: In reality, its citations are error-ridden, with missing links, incorrect conclusions, and sometimes even made-up studies. https://trib.al/YADF2Ur

Abolish ICE

Hey DOGE!

The combination of Oligarchy, authoritarianism and Big Tech are an extraordinary threat to democracy and the future of humanity. We must not allow Musk, Trump, Mohammed bin Salman and other Oligarchs shape the future of our world.

Vought is lying. 60-70% of Project 2025's executive action proposals have been initiated or implemented — like gutting education and environmental laws. 30-40% is currently proposed as legislation — gutting healthcare, banking deregulations, voter suppression, and more.

Other things OMB chief Russ Vought has said — caught on tape, and revealed by my colleagues: “We are in the late stages of a complete Marxist takeover of the country.” -J6ers are “political prisoners” Trump presidency “is nothing more than a gift of God.” www.propublica.org/article/vide...

“We’re not in love with the law” is a pretty good motto for this group

A Palantir database on all Americans is a frightening step towards fascism. Musk gets a lot of attention—rightfully so—but Peter Thiel is the techno-fascist billionaire hiding behind the scenes pulling the strings to end democracy. Thiel and his techno-fascist followers are threats to the world.

ICYMI— 50 unidentified investors paid President Trump’s social-media company $2.5 billion this week

oh no no no. no no no no no

The media and education system have tried to erase their legacies, but some of the world’s greatest artists, leaders, and thinkers were—and are—firmly on the Left. www.currentaffairs.org/news/seven-m...

The brand destruction that will come to the university that lends its reputation to this will be massive. Stephen Miller University from that moment on.

"The outcry from the MAGA faithful underscores just how deep the delusion runs. If someone like Bongino, one of their most trusted champions, can’t pierce through the conspiratorial noise, no one can." Read @passantino.bsky.social's latest in @status.news: www.status.news/p/dan-bongin...

For four long years I was told not to call what’s coming our way fascism but here we are:
