incredible societal failure that this guy was ever taken seriously as a police reformer in 2021

The fare free bus pilot was an unqualified success, basically solved the issue that half the people that use the bus can’t pay for it anyway. They ended it and now they’re just pretending like they support it.

“i disagree with everything Khalil was saying, and how he was saying it. im glad the nypd bashed all those kids’ heads in last year and he should maybe be expelled. but the important thing is…wait what was i saying?” we’re truly watching the rhetorical masters at work with these kinds of statements

tesla car vehicles will have more legal protections than trans people

@repmoskowitz.bsky.social hey fuck you shithead! deport yourself! free mahmoud khalil!

@aoc.bsky.social hey why are you not signing on to the letter demanding mahmoud khalil's freedom?

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

ICE agents arrested Palestinian student activist Mahmoud Khalil and sent him to a prison in Jena, La. Homeland Security officials and Trump have indicated that the arrest was over his role in organizing protests against Israel's war on Gaza last spring at Columbia University.

american society has been at “TV Interstitial from ROBOCOP” for a while but “president does a car commercial on the white house lawn” is really pushin it

oh you’re a goalie? the drummer of sports?

British cartoonist RE Burke was backpacking through North America. Now she’s locked up in an ICE detention facility. www.comicsbeat.com/cartoonist-r...

"We are deeply appreciative of all you do in the care of our students and community. Also we will be using your engineering class as a trap for students who protested a genocide before they're shipped off to a Trump blacksite, and it's not optional."

this is the 700th (!) "please listen to me" comic fyi. i took a couple months off in like 2018 but that's a lot of weeks of doing the same thing huh

Find local advocacy groups for immigrants, trans rights, civil rights, whatever angle you choose. We've already got the biggest prison system in the world. If you don't care about conditions (and they don't) you can fit an awful lot of us in there.

I am briefly in NY tomorrow and it's close enough to where I'm stationed that I am going to try to make it. We have to be showing up to this stuff. The acceleration of the police state must at minimum be met by people saying "stop"

try to be there if you can

we should organize and take to the streets over this shit, we should be going to jail over it but we're so cult-of-individualism poisoned that people are like "well, why aren't YOU doing it?" I can't do shit! only we, collectively, have power. this is a time to organize ourselves and use that power

This feels like a major inflection point. If ICE can apparently unlawfully arrest & disappear a permanent resident and it is not immediately met with strong opposition from the public, officials, and courts, there is no going back.

Environmental policy experts say the Trump White House has followed Project 2025’s proposed dismantling of climate regulations almost “to a T.”

"Pageviews aren’t everything, and we aren’t going to fork over the money our donors give us to Elon Musk’s app so we can compete for engagement with crypto bots and Nazis," Ashton Pittman writes. Read more: buff.ly/HFrUeTl

once again I have to invoke the specter of Ronald Wilson Reagan, who is in Hell now. under Reagan, the term "government spending" was effectively demonized. fuck you, Reaganite ghouls! spending money, on its people and their needs, is the function of government! public works are good! say so!

Hi baby! Our elephant family welcomed its tiniest member on Saturday night when Rose-Tu gave birth to a new calf 💕🐘

Elephant calf update: very baby

Rose-Tu’s baby met Auntie Shine and much trumpeting ensued 🐘💕🐘

Prince and Princess of Pounce in the house

Rose-Tu’s calf has a name! Meet Tula-Tu 💕

So Steak 'n' Shake is a Nazi bar now

OPINION: "Just a few hours (after giving birth), as Hannah Kelly Hilson lay in bed holding her baby, bullets riddled their home," LaWanda Dickens writes.

if you replaced these guys' inboxes with a woman sportswriter's, they'd commit suicide by lunchtime

The media is now obsessed with remorseful Trump voters, white voters, who are now losing their jobs or upset about inflation. I don’t want to hear from them. I want to hear from the Black voters who stood in line for hours, only to be turned away because their name was purged from the rolls.

Kitten season is here throughout much of the U.S. and rescues are desperate for foster homes! If you like the idea of fostering but think you can't because of money, time, or other obstacles, it may be more accessible than you think. Contact a local rescue for details! www.aspca.org/news/dont-fa...

This could be us but etc. etc.

the problem with the "trans sports participation is a loser / 80-20 issue" framing is that it ignores how it got that way. it didn't just happen out of nowhere. It's been a 5+ year campaign by Republicans to make it an 80-20 issue, and noone fought back.

Six weeks into his second term, President Donald Trump has taken aggressive steps to curb federal climate spending and undermine government efforts to protect the environment. buff.ly/GeeOqBC

In retaliation to Trump's first term tariffs, China placed tariffs on soybeans—significantly affecting Mississippi Delta farmers who lost income because of decreased export sales. buff.ly/F8PqDFk

He looks like he’s trying to figure out if the copyright page is part of the novel or not.

email from HR department: hey you can put she/her in your outlook signature if you want 77 million americans: we can no longer peacefully coexist with the rest of you

Trump said during his address to Congress that people as old as 150 are receiving Social Security. But that claim is not true and is based on a misrepresentation of how the Social Security database works. buff.ly/DFIeDcE

rfk is the most brainless public servant of my lifetime, I think, and I was around for Dan Quayle

ladies and gentlemen, the democrats

in my opinion every restaurant should be compelled by law to have slams. across all cuisines. huevos con chilaquiles slam. szechuan slam. aloo saag slam. I favor robust state controls to implement the slamification of all menus

just to clarify for the zillionth time: the reason that "the democrats" are not standing up in any significant way for trans people while the republicans try to kill us is because they also hate us and want us to die!

If you agree that this was a fucking stupid thing to do, i hope you'll join me in calling his office when it opens at 9 AM: (916) 445-2841

the issue with dem leadership right now is that they quite obviously dont really give a shit

never give one inch of ground on Reagan, a monster for whose grave even the most fetid piss is too good

People do not understand what a monster Reagan was. He’s in Hell now.

Many of Trump’s claims Tuesday night were false or misleading as he attempted to highlight his policies, from his anti-immigration crackdown to his tariffs, during an address to Congress.
