The people putting their lives on the line to obstruct ICE are goddamn heroes. Stone-cold badassery.

Republicans post fake image of Oregon protest – using photos of South America A federal judge had blocked Trump’s request to deploy California national guard to Portland

The Oregon Republican Party tried to help Donald Trump make the case for military intervention in Portland with an image of a fiery protest β€” but since Portland is calm, they had to fabricate one by merging old photos of police in Ecuador and protesters in Brazil www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

Pritzker is also furious: β€œShould National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

We wanted to understand Democratic Socialists of America. So we talked to two old guys who voted for Trump. (Yes, this is literally the article.)

The Supreme Court v. Democracy The Nation’s justice correspondent previews the court’s coming termβ€”and explains why it will never stand up to Trump.

It's the first Monday in October which means the Supreme Court is back in session. Here's my preview of all the cruelty and evil they will visit upon us this term.

I was told not to teach a class on the intellectual histories of Zionism and Anti-Zionism next year - not because they doubted I could teach it fairly, but because it would attract too many politicians scrutinizing the syllabus.

A society where that is a valid fear is no longer fully democratic.

On August 25, President Trump again referenced plans for a Chicago troop deployment,
stating: β€œWe go in, we will solve Chicago within one week, maybe less. But within one
week, we will have no crime in Chicago just like we have no crime in D.C.”54
β€’ On August 30, after Governor Pritzker voiced opposition to a potential Chicago troop
deployment, President Trump posted on social media that the Governor β€œbetter straighten
it out, FAST, or we’re coming!”55
β€’ On September 2, President Trump called Chicago β€œa hellhole” and worse than Afghanistan;
when asked whether he had made up his mind β€œon Chicago,” the President answered
simply: β€œWe’re going in – I didn’t say when, we’re going in.”56
β€’ On September 3, President Trump sent a fundraising email to his supporters with the
subject β€œWe’re going to Chicago!” The email began: β€œWE’RE GOING INTO
CHICAGO. I’m not saying when, but we’re going in!” Claiming he had β€œturned our Great
Capital into a Safe Zone,” President Trump declared: β€œNOW I WANT TO LIBERATE
CHICAGO!” After decrying that β€œThe Radical Left Governors and Mayors of crime
ridden cities don’t want to stop the radical crime,” the President assured his supporters:
β€œWE’RE GOING TO DO IT ANYWAY.”57

In its imagery, language, and font, the post evoked a character from the 1979 Vietnam War film,
Apocalypse Now, who led a helicopter attack on a Vietnamese village, massacring several

A memorandum filed by Illinois and Chicago in support of their motion to stop Trump from sending in the National Guard lists almost every single reference Trump has made to invading Chicago, including social media posts.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Not just willing. Eager. That's the terrifying thing.

If you're wondering how "Jawohl, mein FΓΌhrer! We will kill the queers and the Jews and the Zigeuner!" got off the ground...you're watching it in real time.

Unless you're in ICE. Then you're doing it yourself.

You can’t get anti-institutionalists to trust an institution I will stipulate at the outset that I do not know how to reverse the long trend toward distrust in traditional American news sources. There's probably a solution out there, likely something involving ...

I was curious if The Post's shift to accommodating the right was yielding any distinct benefit to the paper. To this point, it hasn't β€”Β and it's hard to see why it would.
