Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho didn't hold back when expressing his anger and "contempt" after agents with Homeland Security attempted to gain access to two elementary schools earlier this week.

BREAKING NEWS: a clearly physically impaired Trump struggles to ascend Air Force One big stairs! What are they hiding about the President’s health?

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

"Getting rid of USAID is a very easy way of winning headlines... But if your one accomplishment in government is to rip funds away from the neediest, so that they can die, so they can be unmedicated, so that they can starve, that is a moral stain that I hope will haunt you 'til the day you die."

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

When he showed up to an immigration meeting in Memphis, Kasper Eriksen thought he was on the verge of becoming a citizen. Then ICE arrested the Mississippi father of four, not even giving him a chance to say goodbye to his wife, whisking him away to a prison. @nickjudin.bsky.social reports:

The absolute disgrace taking place today in front of cameras in the White House is yet another reminder that for all the talk of Joe Biden's failures, the people who failed America the most are our citizens. Empowering this guy (again) was a foreseeable disaster we'll be lucky to survive.

There are lots of wrong definitions of habeas one could give, but this is just about the *most* wrong definition possible. Imagine a cabinet member being asked to define freedom of speech and answering that it’s the government’s right to stop you from criticizing them. About the same.

The very definition of evil is incarcerating for life in one of the worst hellholes on Earth men who did everything right. But it’s beyond evil—beyond demonic—to then not try to do anything to save the men you consigned to Hell, *and* to in fact libel and slander them daily when they cannot reply.

This is more freedom, right?

Trump pardoned the violent J6 insurrectionist freaks and they walk among us, thirsting for revenge. One of them, Zach Alam, did a home invasion the other day.

To be clear: Assaulting police officers and destroying property on January 6? Totally fine. Pardon them all. Showing up at an ICE Facility to demand due process? Criminal. The Republican Party is irrevocably broken. Vote all these idiots out.

This is the right approach — speak to them as you would an especially stupid child, spell out their crimes and your contempt clearly.

"The fact that conservatives are rallying around her speaks to the victimhood mindset that’s gripping today’s Republican Party.” — MSNBC’s Ja’han Jones

“Take and eat; this is my body.” - The Ueckarist

This is what it looks like when a person's soul has left their body but they keep talking.

Damn

unfollowing everyone on linkedin except this guy

Ken Griffey Jr (yes, that Ken Griffey Jr) took some incredible photos during the Masters that are available in Getty

The best thing to ever happen to Pablo… Leaving ESPN He’s good at this!

Must read from @jvl.bsky.social . www.thebulwark.com/p/the-americ...

This might be true. It might not. Who cares? Musk is and will continue to be a critical driver of the attack on American republic. The American republic can only survive if Musk's power and wealth are neutered and if possible pulverized. DOGE is made up of ... www.politico.com/news/magazin...

In other countries, we recognize this immediately for what it is.

One of the oldest arguments against giving any rights or process to the people we accuse is — one constantly “rediscovered” by the shallow and the dim — is “well they didn’t give their victims any rights or process.” That’s fatuous. /1

A top Democratic congressman goes off during a DOGE hearing and calls out Elon for trying to cut Social Security. More of this please.

I continue to feel separated in every meaningful way from people who think this is okay. I’m not sure being their neighbor or their fellow citizen is an achievable or desirable goal.

Musk and Trump could not possibly be sending a clearer signal that the Tesla protests are working than this pathetic stunt today.

Does anyone know on what day it becomes Trump's economy? Is it after a year in office or how long?

Let's be really really clear. The Trump admin chose a Palestinian activist as the target of its first lawless political detention precisely BECAUSE they believe that will split the opposition. If you shrug at the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil, or worse, cheer it on, you're following Trump's script.

'Did you even say thank you?'

Yosemite National Park workers hang distress flag to protest Trump and Musk coming for their jobs.

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

Consider the logic of the alleged quid pro quo with Eric Adams: You can [allegedly] accept bribes so a foreign country can build and open an unsafe building in your city, so long as you help combat individual migrants, many of them non-criminal.

Eric Adams was a disgrace from day one and now he's sold all of us to the Trump administration—including our most vulnerable neighbors. It's time for @govkathyhochul.bsky.social to fire him. Every minute she waits, she's sacrificing more New Yorkers. ENOUGH.

This is just one of thousands of harrowing stories told about the U.S. Government abandoning Americans abroad in the USAID shutdown. This is Benghazi times a million. 1/

SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS! THIS ONE’S FOR YOU PHILLY!
