This! 💯

The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond

The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

“They want you to get mad at the trans child who wants to play sports so that you don’t pay attention to the billionaires who want to pick your pocket.”

I couldn't name a Jays player (besides Vlad) before this series, but was vaguely rooting for them; now really bummed they lost. I feel for actual Blue Jays fans!

The only check-and-balance that actually matters

The destruction of the East Wing is a reminder that America has violated the only check-and-balance that actually ends up mattering: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-only-c...

Is he just gonna steal $230 million dollars from us?

Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility By Marcela Rodrigues Globe Staff,Updated October 12, 2025, 44 minutes ago 31 A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia. A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia. A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo. The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview. “My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese. From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett. The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

Has lived in the US since he was NINE MONTHS OLD.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium.

ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

I think they often want to in theory, but not enough to put in the work to make it happen as a busy adult (or they might be shy/uncomfortable with taking those steps)

Ok but the mini tent tho?!

Star Wars Intro Scroll Episode IV It Was All So Stupid Seriously, you would not believe how stupid it was. Every day, unrelentingly, just the dumbest stuff by the absolute worst people. And what made it worse was knowing that we’d brought this on ourselves.

Or accidentally following one of those stupid "shuffle suggestions"!!!

NYT home page: more prominent coverage for "7 Americans React to Sweeping Tariffs" and "A Sticky Miso Salmon Bowl for Busy Weeknights" than for "Anti-Trump Protests in All 50 States"

If "protests in all 50 states" wanted above-the-fold coverage in @nytimes.com, they should have been "seven random Americans" instead

Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation.

It’s an essential step in the process.

Beacon, NY turned out to say HANDS OFF! #handsoff

Suppose your aged uncle said this ...

I don’t do this often and promise not to make a habit of it, but just this once: WE TRIED TO WARN YOU!!!!!

The media can (and should) reject the Right's deceptive frame. This is not about "references to diversity, equity, and inclusion."

It is a neosegregationist attempt to erase everyone but white males from the nation's history.

It's disgraceful. I'm so sorry you're going through this. ❤️‍🩹

Looks delicious!

It’s January 6th. I’d like to take a second to congratulate all of us who said that unless there were massive immediate consequences for what happened, we would end up precisely here in four years, facing this exact future. Pretty cool.

Ambitions change so much in that time, it's wild

I have always loved public libraries, but having young children has exponentially increased my gratitude and sense of indebtedness to them. Our local library is such a huge part of our lives. The books, the programming, the very intentionally curated kids’ section. It’s all such a gift.

Sometimes I think about how sleep deprivation is used as a form of torture and then I think about how in prison they don't expect you to be 100% "on" and nurturing and making balanced meals and providing developmental enrichment to small impressionable people while they keep you awake for hours

Ahh ok, thanks!
