"Republicans are on an unprecedented five week recess from Congress because they don't want to talk about why they're cutting health care to pay for a billionaire tax cut, and they don't want to talk about the President's lawlessness and corruption."

Trump Administration Authorizes Covert C.I.A. Action in Venezuela

🧵 This reporting confirms my suspicion on why, based on reporting last week, the CIA's Deputy Director, Michael Ellis, installed himself as the agency's general counsel. 1/ www.nytimes.com/2025/10/15/u...

That is exactly how the Taliban started.

The release of the remaining hostages from Gaza brings relief to families who’ve endured nearly two years of fear. But this moment also underscores the devastating toll of war with many hostages still missing and countless Palestinian children suffering in a worsening humanitarian crisis.

as I've suspected all along (and I mean since 1980) the loudest, most furious right wing shit-heads are all compromised as hell. the entire GOP is a compromat machine, where each perverted degenerate freak gets his strings pulled and there is no limit to the evil they will do to escape exposure.

Folks, some incredible news:

A couple of weeks ago, a national theatre chain axed our release of Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile because it mentioned Donald Trump.

Now, because of you, Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile will now run on over 25 screens throughout the world.

Trump & horrible news on a Friday go hand in hand.

But…broadcast is where the FCC has jurisdiction. You’re just a hypocrite.

Fired for refusing to fabricate evidence to help get someone else fired. That’s where we are.

Trump filed a lawsuit against the @nytimes.com and had it thrown out.

Maybe that is one of the reasons he is so scared to follow through with his threat to us @lincolnproject.us?

Or is it because we would force discovery of the Epstein Files?

What do you think? 🤣

I feel like there is a genuine challenge journalists face here:

Bondi isn't going to charge him. Any judge* will toss the case. I bet most DOJ lawyers will resign, and pro bono lawyers will jump.

This is about intimidation. This is about this very headline.

The Many Ways in Which the Caribbean Strike was Unlawful Legal expert on domestic authority and law most relevant to the US strike on alleged Venezuelan drug boat

Very good piece by Marty Lederman on the (il)legality of the killing of the people on the Venezuelan boat.

I think it’s fair to say there have been more overt attacks on and threats to freedom of expression in the US since January than in our entire history. And recently they are accelerating and getting more brazen.

They don’t have the power to do what they’re threatening on a grand scale.

But they want us to think they do.

Remember Nory and her mom Estela? Here’s the devastating update.

ICE took Estela’s blood pressure meds when they deported her. She was too afraid to leave home for refills because the same gangs that beat her in Guatemala were still waiting.

She died at 45 because she didn’t have her medication.

All hail VICTOR!!! He's a real-life hero whose selflessness & courage is an inspiration to us all.

Wishing you a complete & speedy recovery.

I salute you, sir! 🫡

Your ticket is non-transferrable and non-refundable. ​You are warmly invited to a series of four lectures by Peter Thiel addressing the topic of the biblical Antichrist.

Tonight, some of the most powerful people in tech will gather to hear Peter Thiel—who created Vance—give a secret lecture on the Antichrist.

It's all the same talking point, folks: politics as holy war

Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors - Nature Climate change made 213 historical heatwaves reported over 2000–2023 more likely and more intense, to which each of the 180 carbon majors (fossil fuel and cement producers) substantially contributed.

A new study published Wednesday in @nature.com finds that most of the deadly heat waves of the past 25 years would not have happened without emissions from the world’s largest oil, gas, coal and cement companies.

1. At Charlie Kirk's vigil just now, DNI Tulsi Gabbard just invoked MLK Jr.'s line, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that." She insisted Kirk "lived" by that line.

Unclear how Kirk would've felt about that comparison, since he decried MLK as “awful” and "not a good person."
