Boots!!!

What he says is silly. Grace doesn't only come from God. It's what is expected from Christians (I Corinthians 13:4-7).

Bonus: Note how none of this seems to describe the actions of the current administration.

"Person impeached for insurrection sends billions to Argentina during US gov't shutdown" and "Felon convicted of fraud pardons felon convicted of fraud" and "Long-time Epstein associate posts video depicting himself as a king dumping diarrhea on Americans from a fighter jet" are factual statements

A post from the NYPD saying that there were NO arrests related to the No Kings protests.

A big portion of the rally right before the march was specifically about the Palestinians, and everyone cheered just as loud. In fact, one of the speakers was a Palestinian activist. I can tell you, no one had a problem with it. I was there.

Seattle is showing up. 💪💪💪💪

YouTube video by The Bulwark ICE officer tries to get out of drunk driving arrest by racially profiling officers

ICE/DHS simply thinks the laws don't apply to them, and from what we've seen from the current administration, why would they? These are dangerous people, who are living out their Punisher fantasies. It's gotta stop. youtube.com/shorts/txRgC...

The Santos commutation is a prelude to a Ghislaine Maxwell pardon.

Mark my words.

A revealingly creepy formulation by Speaker Johnson.

What does he mean by “they” are going to “descend” on “our” capital?

WE are going to assemble in OUR communities exercising OUR constitutional rights in defense of OUR nation.

He did it on a Friday night, the day before the huge No Kings protests dominate the news cycle. Coincidence? I think not.

Ronald Reagan said it. #NoKings tomorrow 10/18

"They send *up*..." Notice he's singling out Latin American immigrants. Racists gonna racist.

these fools being admitted to these White House events are a national embarrassment

So messed up.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

the whole point of mass protest is to demonstrate overwhelming opposition to the political direction, at a scale that can't be cracked down on

dress comfortably and stay away from anyone inciting violence, but don't let clout chasers scare you into losing sight of how the basic concept works

More than *anything* the people who actually know how technology works, who actually build things, wish that people would treat LLMs like every other technology, and be normal about them. Don't build a religion about them, don't force them on people, don't ignore the problems. Just be normal.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Extraordinary NEW story: We Found That More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. @nicolefoy.bsky.social w/ photos by @sbmaneyphoto.bsky.social

“The Government sometimes makes brief investigative stops. . . . If the officers learn that the individual they stopped is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, they promptly let the individual go.”

Predictable and alarming:

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

All the Pretty Little Nazis The shape of things to come.

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals 

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing


If they want to say that that's a Democratic priority, they're right,

Mike Davis racist smear

Hakeem Jeffries posted pictures of two Rep. Members posing with “Young Republicans” who were part of a racist text thread (as reported by Politico).

In response, Mike Davis (well-connected in Trump World & on the Hill) called Jeffries a “house slave” for George Soros - proving Jeffries’ point.

💪💪💪💪

...and "grab her by the p***y" was just "locker room talk"
