Judges should also demand that federal agents stop using the word “police” on their uniforms. There is no federal police force and they are in essence masquerading as police, the way Fox News pretends it is a news organization.

Trump’s Voter Citizenship Database Is ‘Flawed’ and Could Lead to Disenfranchisement, Election Administrator Warns Read more here.

NEW: Court filings reveal that states using the Trump administration’s untested citizenship verification system to purge voter rolls may be mistakenly flagging eligible voters at an alarming rate, risking the chance of voters being disenfranchised.

CBS News just gutted its climate team Paramount and Bari Weiss aren't off to a great start. Here's why David Ellison should change course.

NEWS: CBS News gutted its climate team as part of the big Paramount layoffs this week. These journalists had been doing incredible reporting on extreme heat, flooding, clean energy investments and more.

You can now preview 2026 ACA insurance premiums on healthcare.gov.

A family of four in Maricopa County paid $514 a month for their ACA plan in 2025. Next year, that same plan will cost $2,435. That kind of increase will be devastating for thousands of Arizona families.

BREAKING: Democrats just tried to pass a standalone bill to fund WIC & SNAP to make sure families don't go hungry during the Republican shutdown.

Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

The MRI was excellent, I tell you, excellent.

Stop the Stigma of Chronic Illness
by sharing your story.

I was greatly affected first 2 years of Long Covid & most was self-inflicted because I grew up with:
“They” should try harder
“They” are faking
“They” are milking the system.

“They” is me.

And no, I’m not.
Disability can happen to anyone.

Trump thought he could use the government shutdown he created to purge our federal workforce.

The law says otherwise.

This is a victory for our dedicated federal workers & we won’t stop until every federal worker unjustly fired by this Administration has been reinstated.

Time to check out MUBI.

Laugh Factory manager charged with assaulting Border Patrol agent outside Chicago comedy club last week The night manager at the Chicago Laugh Factory has been charged with assaulting U.S. Border Patrol agent during a confrontation outside the North Side comedy club last week.

A source familiar with this incident told me today that not only did they arrest and charge the comedy club manager, but the Latino man he was defending from ICE -- who was also arrested and whisked away -- **is also a U.S. citizen.**

It's unclear where the Latino man is now.

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

Yes.

Bannon (et al) have been prepping the faithful for years with a message of "you will suffer pain but it will be worth it." They have been literally prepping.

They still insist Jan 6 insurrectionists were "invited" inside.

I fear they will not believe the evidence of their eyes re the files.

No worries, I hear Mike Lindell found a stringer to send over to WaPo to help prop it back up.

"What I need you to understand is that nobody is letting them go quietly. The Feds' every movement is announced by a chorus of whistles, by a parade of cars honking in their wake, neighbors rushing outside to yell to film to witness these kidnappings that are unfolding in front of us."

ICE has been cracking down hard across the vast expanse of the greater Chicago area, and I wrote a little bit about what you need to understand about what it’s like here now. Plus, I compiled some resources for locals to get alerts and whistles. dansinker.com/posts/202…

The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

there was way way more going on in Chicago this last week than I could have anticipated or planned for—I would be heading back from one neighborhood ICE watch on the train and get notifications of an ICE sighting and then a protest and another protest. so many people really have each other.

Any ideas why New Jersey and California? Hmmmm???
