If you are in line to post a Kristi Noem getting fired joke - STAY IN LINE.

Letting Kristi Noem give a press conference before she realizes she’s fired is a pretty hardcore start to white history month

There shouldn't be a head of the DHS because there shouldn't be a DHS. Repeal the patriot act. Put all that shit back where it was.

Vance's "war on fraud" is a fraud It'd be laughable if people weren't getting hurt.

New in PN: Vance's "war on fraud" is a fraud

"It's bad enough that the campaign against MN is driven by gutter racism. Just as shocking is that this president, who spent a lifetime running scams & swindles, says with a straight face that he wants to fight fraud. And that Vance is the man to do it."

Nailed it

I still struggle with the part where this is a real person.

‘Nazi heaven’: Inside Miami campus Republicans’ racist group chat The chat is the subject of a Florida International University police investigation.

The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"

Thirteen years ago, a handful of us fought like hell to protect a book that humanized Iran. Jarrett Dapier and AJ Dungo tell an urgent story beautifully.

JUST IN: A federal judge has barred Gov DeSantis from designating CAIR as a terrorist organization and punish those who associate with the group.

“Once again, Florida chooses political posturing over the First Amendment,” Judge Walker writes.

That is a load-bearing "virtually."

We watched Karina Villa chase down ICE in a suit and heels, telling them to get out of her community. Margaret Croke intentionally panicked white parents about their selective enrollment schools vanishing if neighborhood schools received additional funding. This race is ICE whistles vs. dogwhistles.

Noem looks like an absolute monster here.

The Department of Education has hung a massive banner honoring a racist college dropout who built a lucrative career out of targeting professors for harassment

You know what you could do today instead of doomscrolling all day is go pick up a copy of Persepolis. It is stunningly good.

I’m in. Let’s do a bootleg book club.

Michael Sacks says it is outright Jew Hate to return a campaign donation from someone with ties to AIPAC

From @politico.com: Michael Sacks, the hedge fund/private equity guy often described as Rahm’s closest confidant, who spends huge to defeat efforts to tax wealthy corporations and to support pro-charter school board candidates, calls it “outright Jew hate” not to accept AIPAC-connected money.

Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant. I watched ICE cut classes that teach our legal system, firearms training, use of force, lawful arrests, and the limits of officers' authority

Chicago’s newest snow plow name ‘Abolish ICE,’ Mayor Brandon Johnson says Mayor Brandon Johnson announced “Abolish ICE” as the winner of a citywide snow plow name contest. He had earlier given it a “full and complete” endorsement.

The way I just nearly spit out my coffee

another long day at work for the guy at CBS whose job it is to read old stormfront posts and pitch them to the team.

Another Rahm guy with a corporate bros PAC

"Stop resisting unlawful traffic stops, neighborhood sweeps, home raids, and warrantless arrests or more special education teachers will die."

Sacks has BEEN all over Chicago politics. The spotlight is overdue. Whatever he and Ruemmler call their PAC this week, the goal for years now has been to take out every progressive alder and have a City Council full of Bill Conways.

Ted McClelland strikes again. I feel very certain he doesn't *think* he's that guy, but here we are.

Lists are meant to provoke, and power doesn't equal goodness. With that said, an explicit fascist with negligible reach in Chicago inches away from an elected Black woman labor leader; one gets a cute lil' photo and the other gets a jarring, racist caricature (and called a troll). These are choices.

Apparently Brendan Reilly was Vallas’ comms director back in ‘02 when Vallas lost to Blago.
