Trump making a mockery out of the "presidency."

Trump making a mockery out of the "presidency."

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

Keystone Kash needed a distraction from the story that he took another private govt jet to watch his girlfriend sing. apnews.com/article/detr...

As the Shutdown Pain Grows, Trump Attends to Other Matters

Also, you know how Trump attended a Great Gatsby roaring 20s party on Halloween as he was cutting SNAP benefits? The NYT's only coverage of this fact is a brief reference here that doesn't mention the theme or lavishness and quotes ZERO Democrats. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/31/u...

Carlos Jimenez, a 24-year-old U.S. citizen, was on his way to work at a food bank when he was shot by ICE officers in what a DHS spokesperson calls “defensive shots.” On Thursday morning at approximately 6:30 a.m., ICE officers were at Vineyard Avenue in Ontario when Jimenez, who was not in the target vehicle, attempted to pull in front of the officers. According to Javier Hernandez, executive director of the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, Jimenez was trying to assist and provide aid to the person who was being stopped by ICE officers. After Jimenez was shot in the shoulder, the LA Times and LA Taco reported that he drove to his brother’s house so he could take him to the hospital.

ICE shot an American citizen and food bank worker who tried to block them arresting an immigrant by pulling his car in front of them.
After being released from hospital: "He is now facing charges for assault on a federal officer."

For those keeping count, Simon Harris "took to social media" to decry the shooting of Charlie Kirk the following day. He's gone cycling today, apparently.

I wonder how many actual experts on the Irish and international far-right does the government have advising them? All the evidence would suggest zero. #speirgorm

This is one of the most egregious things you can do in journalism and broadcasting and should be the end of Yates. Conflicts of interest should ALWAYS be disclosed.
It should also mean a very restrictive approach to giving lobbyists (many of whom are ex-politicians) airtime or column inches.

The Mayor of Drogheda Cllr Michelle Hall saying (the right) things that the gov cabinet seem incapable of understanding, let alone saying.

"We have to understand that we extend the hand of friendship as well and we can be angry with the system but we shouldn't be targeting the people,"

Today some colouring for fun! I tried to preserve the subtleties of the beautiful og artwork. I hope you like it! 🌼

Guardian top story headline: “Cambridgeshire train stabbing: police say suspects are both British”

How depressing that they feel they must make this the headline.

When I am asked 'Hows it going?'

The men who raised the flags Nigel Farage says this summer’s movement was led by ‘ordinary people’ expressing their patriotism. That’s not what we found

"it is striking how many of the key players we have looked into — the people who have gone out of their way to put up hundreds of flags — seem anything but ordinary."

Ghostbusters: A tale of how lax regulatory authority that couldn’t keep up with burgeoning experimental technology unleashed havoc on the world.

Orange Order grand master admits he was a '90-minute bigot' Andrew Murray told the BBC he sang the Billy Boys song at Rangers games when younger.

'90 minute Bigot' is one of the lamest, stupidest excuses I have ever heard. How anyone can buy this drivel is beyond me. These people have mindset, and its buried some where south of the 17th Century and its ingrained into them. They do not switch it on and off after 90 mins.
Pathetic.

Last night I went to the Puca Festival in Trim, Ireland.

It's all fun and games until someone unleashes a giant demonic hare.

Racist Influencers Using OpenAI's Sora to Make it Look Like Poor People Are Selling Food Stamps for Cash Folks looking for evidence of SNAP recipients as welfare queens have no shortage of AI generated schlock to use as justification.

Again, this precise use case is why these systems exist-to proliferate people’s racist (transphobic, misogynistic…) imaginary at scale. This should not be seen as a “misuse” but rather the product being used exactly as intended.

This is the reality…

Measles outbreak investigation in Utah blocked by patient who refuses to talk The person refused to even tell health officials their address.

And this is why Public Health used to have mandatory quarantine powers, and why they need them. One asshole convinced of their own superiority and righteousness can infect hundreds or thousands.

This person is attempting the willful murder by infection of infants and sick people.
