WARNING to ST. Paul: ICE is going door to door with weapons drawn.

It has been The Onion's best year since we broke Watergate and subsequently, personally had Richard Nixon removed from office.

I'm going to share some personal favorite stories in this thread.

Trump says the U.S. took out a 'big facility' in Venezuela amid strikes on alleged drug boats The president did not provide details about the apparent strike, which NBC News has not independently confirmed.

I’m extremely concerned by reports the Trump administration destroyed a facility during a covert action in Venezuela.

If this was done without Gang of Eight oversight, it’s a serious violation of federal law and a dangerous escalation that pushes us closer to war: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

I'd better not see any MAGA farmers buying soda, candy, or birthday cakes with their welfare checks from Trump.🙄

Trouble is, GOP is doing everything they can to eliminate the "long run." If we do win, we have a long road ahead of us to rebuild/ start over.

NOT DISCUSSED NEARLY ENOUGH THIS WEEK:

Trump’s all over the Epstein files so he’s having Venezuelans killed as a distraction. Because of these crimes against humanity, a 4-star Admiral resigned and the British, the Dutch, and the Colombians are no longer sharing intel with the USA.

BOMBSHELL update on Epstein files: Oversight Dems received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate between Trump & Maxwell and Trump & Michael Wolff.

This is amazing. And it’s truly the stuff of nightmares.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

Minneapolis is showing up and showing out. #NoKings

I read a great article explaining how the Dems tend to protect "the union" rather than make big changes. I wish I could find it. It really sounds exactly why the party seems so stagnant and fearful.

2/
August jobs report showed only 22,000 jobs created, the weakest in years. Unemployment spiked to 4.3%, the highest since 2021. This is economic wreckage, not prosperity. Trump and Republicans are driving the economy off a cliff, and working families are paying the price. #USDemocracy

I read an article recently explaining that politicians choose to preserve the union rather than make big changes that would rock the boat. I feel that may be the root of the problem.

Did you mean iKKKea?

CBS parent company Paramount canceled Colbert to win approval from Trump's FCC to merge with Skydance.

Now ABC parent company Disney suspends Kimmel as it seeks DOJ approval to buy Fubo — and its affiliate Nexstar seeks FCC approval to buy Tegna.

See how this works?

So many people feel overwhelmed while scrolling and there’s a reason for that. Bots are a large part of the problem. We’ve been breaking down how to spot them. After tracking bot groups that push narratives and attacks, we found some common traits:

In just a few days, you can see SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES on various large screens around the world. I’d recommend it, if only for the greatness. And the loudness. Plus Junior Mints.

The DOJ is doing exactly what you think they’re doing with the Epstein files – redacting Republican names and leaving Democratic names.

The acting DEPUTY CHIEF was BUSTED on a hot mic.

Greystar was using rent-setting algorithms from software company RealPage, the subject of a 2022 ProPublica investigation that showed the firm was helping landlords decide prices in a way that legal experts said could result in cartel-like behavior.

Some people say things like

"Slavery was a long time ago, why are you still bringing it up?"

and also

"It’s very important to consider what the founders would have thought about this thing happening today."

🚨 Minnesota Alliance for Retired Americans v. Simon Learn more.

NEW: The Minnesota Supreme Court agrees to hear a pro-voting lawsuit challenging the state’s requirement that absentee voters must obtain a witness signature to cast a ballot. Previously, a state appeals court ruled that the requirement does not violate federal law.

/4 Of course, the prospects of getting a meaningfully different Congress are poor because one of the things the regime and its allies will do is break laws and norms to obstruct free and fair elections. (Watch in particular for use of ICE to harass potential voters and vote-organizers.)
