Asked if the Trump admin will comply with Judge Farbiarz’s order to release Mahmoud Khalil, a DHS spokeswoman says, “An immigration judge, not a district judge, has the authority to decide if Mr. Khalil should be released or detained.”

ALSO, in honor of our fourth year running this and the milestone we are fast approaching, i'm honoring the moment with a very special donation incentive. if we clear over $50k lifetime raised for Trans Lifeline, i will concoct and consume the cursed brew. 50% Guinness. 50% Monster. The Gonster.

ICE in just a few weeks has transformed itself into the closest thing that the US has ever had to a “secret police,” with more seemingly culturally in common with the Klan nightriders of Reconstruction than their federal agency brethren like the FBI or ATF. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-believ...

one thing we are seeing very clearly is that the public does not like "masked goons kidnapping people off the streets" as a general policy and if the reconciliation bill passes, it's hard to overstate how much money they have allocated to exactly that things are going to get very ugly

Hey Google, this is what your precious AI thinks facts are, it can't think, it can only be tricked and make everyone dumber

Maybe it's me or maybe it's my subconscious but there is something about this that reminds me of something else...

My wife: "So did that guy ever locate a Switch 2?" Me: "I think Bluesky is crowdsourcing a search for one...but I'm not sure if @slothropsmap.bsky.social ever found one I'll keep checking for updates.

Three months ago, Zohran Mamdani confronted Trump's “border czar” Tom Homan — as most Democrats simply twiddled their thumbs after Mahmoud Khalil was taken. "How many more New Yorkers will you detain?!" "Do you believe in the First Amendment?!" Today, Khalil is freed.

I live in tornado alley and THIS geological event is my own personal nightmare fuel... A tornado is spontaneous, but not THIS spontaneous.

When you might be on a road trip with @wajali.bsky.social but definitely NOT @radiofreetom.bsky.social

"Tim Burke did what any good journalist would do. He found the truth, and he exposed it."

Hey folks. I know there's a lot going on right now, but I'd really appreciate it if you read this piece I wrote on the perils of raising an autistic child during the era of RFK Jr. and his campaign of insane conspiracies and cruel scare tactics geared toward people on the spectrum.

stamina, mana, health

idk these definitely don't look like the type of group who, given the right conditions in a few years, will be riding around neighborhoods in make-shift technicals and killing protest organizers in their homes...

the future of the democratic party is this old guy who sucks

IYKYK...

A Virginia guy hunted a Latino man, cornered him, questioned him, and then shot him and his friend, because he assumed the guy was an undocumented immigrant. He was radicalized by Fox News etc. and, of course, Trump. www.wric.com/news/local-n...

Think what it must be like to work for Fox or the White House and be able to see the impact of your hard work.

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

hey question what has happened to trump's immigration numbers?

JUST IN: DOJ seeks *life* in prison for Edward Kelley, a former Jan. 6 defendant who was separately convicted of conspiring to murder the FBI agents and police who investigated him. Kelley had argued Trump's pardon should cover his other crimes too. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If you’re under 30, you weren’t even born the last time Andrew Cuomo lived here. This is your city. Vote like it.

Senator Padilla makes an excellent point: if the FBI and Secret Service were willing to physically remove a Senator they had just escorted into the room, force him down on the floor and cuff him because he tried to ask a question What do you think they & ICE do to regular people?

"Peace president."

Democrats will nap through anything but activate like sleeper agents to stop a mildly left candidate anywhere in the country

While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

During the largest protest in U.S. history, a protest against the gravest threat either has faced in their time in politics, Schumer and Jefferies were at the Hamptons wedding of a mega-donor. It's hardly a surprise the base wants better.

📌He picks Juneteenth to post this targeted sludge because bigots send him A LOT of money, and keep his sickly heart beating ... I live for a time when racists like this are extinct.

right-wingers will often say that America deserves credit for ending slavery rather than blame for having slavery. but then we made a holiday to commemorate the end of slavery and they still got mad, which should tell you what their real objection is.

ICE arrested Job Garcia while he was running errands in LA. Job is a US citizen, a scholar, and a brilliant photographer. He’s also my friend. But none of that should determine his humanity. ICE must release Job Garcia immediately.

“DEI” wth a hard R

What were they actually gonna do here? Ask every brown-enough person for their papers to go to the fucking baseball game? This is the most slam-dunk, anti-American thing I can think of. You need a passport to go to a Major League Baseball game now? Malpractice not to make a huge deal out of this.

AOC played ball and did everything Pelosi told her and was rewarded by being passed over for a 75-year-old who died four months later. There have now been four House votes this year where Dems lost by the margin of members who died in office. No one has more right to say this than her

when you’re so racist you don’t let your workers have a day off for a holiday recognizing the end of slavery

Time for the annual schoolhouse rock style history lesson about slavery and the origins of Juneteenth from The Roots

that’s nothing, a couple months ago he went 144 when he was supposed to go 25

I asked ICE where the “413% increase in assaults” justification for its officers using masks came from. They didn’t answer. So I dug into it, and what I found … did not boost their argument. Gift link: wapo.st/4l7a1ch

Also, just block him. JD Vance is here to mine us for content. We don't have to let him.

In 2002, Netanyahu urged the US to invade Iraq. He got his wish. The cost: Hundreds of thousands dead. Trillions in taxes. And he was helped by some of the most overconfident, blood-thirsty figures in American public life. Here's 10 of them who were wrong back then, and are now back at it again:

It’s Tuesday. Is there a censure vote planned for Sen. Mike Lee that I might have missed? 📌 The censure vote on Al Green was 2 days after Trump’s SOTU address.

At least 70 Palestinians were killed and hundreds were injured by the Israeli military on Monday and Tuesday while attempting to get food from aid trucks. Palestinian civilians are being murdered every day by the IDF and the Western world refuses to intervene. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/w...
