They are purging all the transcripts.

I think that the outcome in the NY Mayoral race and the Wisconsin Supreme Court race both show that people power CAN beat the political money machine. That should give us all hope, and the motivation to work for the government we want.

This book is riveting and so, so infuriating. It follows 5 families in Atlanta who are struggling to remain housed and paints deeply compassionate portraits of each unit. It reads almost like a novel but is outstanding journalism

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Good riddance. It leaves room for good cops.

REED: How many Americans weapons are going to Mexico in a year? BONDI: We are arresting people who have illegal firearms in our country REED: No. You're allowing them to be purchased in the United States and driven across the border

Thank you, Glenn. We are all well aware. 🤣😂

Ted Cruz just said Mr. Abrego has been charged with Human Trafficking. Cruz proclaims "I read every word of that indictment!" Apparently not, because Abrego was not charged with human trafficking. I hope this comes up in a motion to dismiss the charges.

Still can’t get over the fact that federal law enforcement officials can wear masks and have no warrants and round up US citizens in this country.

Here’s a joke circulating in Germany: What borders on stupidity? Mexico and Canada.

The government should have listened to disabled people a long time ago: stop these disgraceful cuts and drop the Bill.

This “big, ugly bill” is dangerous and will destroy rural health care. In Kentucky alone, 35 hospitals are under the threat of closing, stripping care from families, cutting jobs and crippling local economies. 1/2

@healamerica.bsky.social Why I followed back: you had me at👇🏽🥂💙

What if a hot girl needed to go to sleep,,,,,,,,,,,, Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

"The people who hate this result the most are the Democratic establishment… poll after poll after poll showing Democratic voters fed up with their leaders in Washington…”

Ouch.

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Okay, well if you can sue judges, who wants to file a lawsuit against Aileen Cannon with me?

James: His critics said that he should wait his turn. His critics said that he did not have the experience. His critics said they did not have the right name. Well, now all of them know his god damn name.

OMG: The government in the Abrego case is actually arguing that the crappy, triple hearsay evidence THEY brought shouldn't be considered. AND they say that if he's freed, and ICE detains him, the DoJ will suffer injury. THEN DON'T DETAIN HIM. lol storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: FBI Abandons Stephen Miller’s Migrant Round-Up in Humiliating Blow Federal investigators are being pulled off migrant duty to ensure that potential Iranian terror threats are spotted and thwarted.

💰 WATCH: “How is that happening?” 🤷🏼‍♂️ @aoc.bsky.social informs a confused RFK Jr. that his own HHS is stuffing the pockets of insurance companies by doubling the rates taxpayers pay them even as they defraud us. 🤔

This man has always been full of sh!t!!!!!

A message for Black NYC voters. Let me know in the comments if you’re voting today… ✔️🗳️ #ElectionDay

Phang: If you were scrolling on social media and saw a dog locked up in the middle of the Everglades—in the sun, in the heat, in the humidity—the outrage would be wild, wouldn’t it? But then—we’re okay with human beings being treated like that?

he's right and he's right to say it

A reminder that the Washington Post endorsed confirming Pam Bondi. Support pro-democracy independent media.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

@anntelnaes.bsky.social

How do the SCOTUS and U.S. Courts of Appeals decide immigration cases? I got a book for you. Here's what the Harvard Law Review said about it.

Uneducated and unsophisticated. In the past those were necessary for public servants. Now all you need are connections and bullshit.

He’s been completely manipulated and played, and it’s starting to sink into his deeply damaged brain.

The 8th body is being pulled from under the rubble of this apartment building in Kyiv. The 9th in Kyiv region tonight. Russia murdered them for being Ukrainians.
