‘You Are All Terrorists’: Four Months in a Salvadoran Prison

Our reporters interviewed 40 of the men the Trump administration sent to a notorious prison in El Salvador: They described being beaten, sexually assaulted by guards and driven to the brink of suicide. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/w...

Trump’s plan is for people to pay his banker friends hundreds of thousands more in interest on mortgages while they own a piece of your home until you die.

Federal judge orders Trump's masked stormtroopers to stop waging war on Americans:

i’m at damen/belle plaine in chicago’s north center neighborhood for an emergency anti-ice rally.

around 7 a.m. this morning, masked federal agents chased a preschool teacher *into* nearby rayito del sol and abducted her—in front of traumatized children, parents, and coworkers.

This is crazy, lawless behavior perpetrated by thugs against an entire city.

Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning.

This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

Ice cold

Opinion | Mamdani’s Victory Is Less Significant Than You Think

The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.

Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

I also ate at the ohare Bay Less Food Source this morning.

Are you joining us at Damon’s wedding in Cancun?

Generally don't care what the pope thinks, but I'm not the one who signed up to care what the pope thinks

Mamdani vs FOP?

Now comes the part where NYPD act like babies in revolt, fuck off at work even more than usual, anecdotes of horrendous violence plaguing NYC pop up, and national news media credulously play along like all of this is somehow the fault of Mayor Mamdani.

It’s a set up. Don’t buy it.

Juuuuuust to clarify: trump is defying the order in order to NOT feed Americans.

@angrystaffer.bsky.social I expect better from you.

Nazism and Communism are different things. This jumbling of the terminology by JVL does nobody any favors.

It was hilarious... right up until they stole goddamn 2000 election.

Yeah, this is gonna be a problem down the line.

Dick Cheney was a dangerous fool. He not only wanted to exploit the trauma of 9/11 to turn America into the kind of country that builds a network of gulags, tortures random unfortunates, and embarks on misdirected wars, he got the whole power structure of the republic to go along with him.

How can they reopen the govt without any guarantee that recision is over?! No votes mean shit with that out there.

Dayanne Figueroa was on her way to get coffee before heading to work when she encountered a chaotic scene in West Town: heavily armed, masked federal agents making arrests on a residential street. People yelled as vehicles honked their horn — a sign now used to alert neighbors that immigration federal agents are in the area — and witnesses said federal agents had arrested several landscaper workers presumed to be in the country without authorization. As Figuero tried to drive through the 1600 block of West Hubbard Street on Friday, Oct. 10, an unmarked vehicle driven by federal agents collided with Figueroa’s as it tried to speed away from a hostile crowd, multiple videos reviewed by the Tribune show. Seconds after the crash, agents abruptly stopped their vehicle and exited with weapons in hand pointing at Figueroa, a U.S citizen. Agents then forcibly opened her door and pulled her out of the vehicle by her legs without identifying themselves, presenting a warrant or informing her that she was under arrest. As bystanders yelled, “You hit her! We have it on video!” agents ignored the crowd and forced Figueroa into a red minivan and drove away. Her car was left behind in the middle of the road, her coffee still in the cup holder, and her keys in plain view.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

In the past two weeks there have been ICE raids on two different friends' blocks within a mile of my house. These are quiet, diverse family areas.

Today a man was taken away while doing some landscaping for my sister in law. Another worker only escaped abduction by hiding in their house.

NYC is going to have the world's biggest media-manufactured crime panic in history the second Mamdani is elected. They aren't even going to wait until he is inaugurated. Whether or not you like the guy, you need to start preparing now for the fire hose of disinformation that is about to activate.

Ok, this HAS to be blown up everywhere.

This asshole has been saying that Biden didn't know who he was pardoning and they used an auto pen. Comer sent a referral to the DOJ.

YouTube video by Dan McClellan What is Christian nationalism?

These goobers want to make Christian nationalism sound as friendly as the word patriot

The media is about to blitz us with stories about how awful Maduro is and I want you to remember that even if they're all true, they are being issued solely for the purpose of manufacturing consent for invading Venezuela and killing innocent people.

We all need to channel this Chicago man’s utter contempt

Kristi Noem is flat-out lying when she claims no U.S. citizen has been arrested in her violent crackdown. Do a web search on “immigration citizen arrested” and you’ll see. Here’s one of the many documented reports we found.

The Democratic Party would do well to look to the social programs of the Black Panther Party as inspiration if SNAP disappears on Saturday. Just running party-sponsored food drives and regular party-sponsored spaghetti dinners in some major cities would be both helpful and good PR.

Wow! It’s not even close. Food banks can’t keep up with the need…

Question: “How long is this sustainable.”

Food bank director: “It’s not… for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”
