A Halloween parade float with the gates of Auschwitz

Evidently there was an Auschwitz-themed float in a Halloween parade in Pennsylvania.

The float was for a Catholic school, and to their credit the church immediately disavowed it.

Thing is, I don’t think high school kids did this entirely on their own. I’m guessing parents had to be involved.

Astounding levels of aggression against obviously nonthreatening nonviolent protestors and bystanders. Border Patrol and ICE are so fundamentally broken as institutions.

U.S. Navy found elevated plutonium in Bayview — S.F. says it was kept in the dark San Francisco officials say they weren’t told that the Navy detected plutonium at the Hunters Point Shipyard for 11 months.

"Radioactive plutonium was found in the air above Bayview-Hunters Point at twice the federal government’s recommended levels, according to a letter from San Francisco’s chief health officer sent to the U.S. Navy today"

Without Online Trolls, There Would Be No Donald Trump On July 8, something happened to Donald Trump that I’ve not seen...

My contribution to TPM's 25th Anniversary edition:

One reason we bloggers don't have the oomph we used to is bc of Trump's trolls.

This is terrifying:

There are signs that Morgan is becoming a cause célèbre for neo-Nazis in the United States. The white supremacist Paul Miller, who gained notoriety for making hate-filled videos while wearing Nazi garb, said on social media that he was working to secure Morgan’s release and directed followers to a crowdfunding campaign that he said was from Morgan directly. “I am in contact with @GasChambers_,” Miller tweeted on Sunday, referring to an X account that says it has raised money for Morgan. “We are going to pay the bail for Kenneth in the next few days he will be free. Gaschamber was very kind and gracious. We just spoke on the phone. We are going to get kenneth out very soon.”

From an article about the man in the SS uniform arrested for attacking the woman in Georgia. Just wild that we've accepted that there's a huge social media platform where an account called "@GasChambers" is allowed to openly do Nazi fundraising and that's fine, in fact all the reporters post there.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

We checked DHS’s videos of chaos and protests. Here’s what they leave out. Official videos purporting to show the triumph of recent immigration operations used footage that was months old or recorded thousands of miles away, a Washington Post analysis found.

Nice detective work by WaPo, finding that DHS viral videos are full of false imagery. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

There is zero reason for anyone, especially reporters, to trust anything that comes out of this administration at any level. This is fantastic reporting.

The fact that the monkeys were killed by the cops, and not actually dangerous after all, turns this whole story from a joke to a fucked up farce.

This is a real thing that a judge had to say to the Chief of US Customs and Border Protection.

The hidden military pressures behind the new push for small nuclear reactors If billions are being invested to power submarines not homes, the public deserves to know.

Feeling confident? Think again — you’re probably wrong. A study finds that overconfidence by many national security experts “was so extreme that it essentially canceled out the knowledge that these individuals possessed.”

Commentary: A new study shows that national security professionals are often overconfident, frequently wrong in their judgments, prone to false positives, and resistant to self-correction.

Trump plans to install Border Patrol officials to lead a more aggressive migrant crackdown The White House has approved a list of ICE leaders to be replaced by Border Patrol officials in coming days amid disappointment with arrest numbers.

Big shakeup in immigration tonight as Trump/Lewandowski feel they haven’t been aggressive enough with simply busting out car windows, grabbing random people off the street, firing pepper balls at clergy members, and setting off tear gas in residential neighborhoods www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

Trump Says He Won’t Rule Out Third Reich

Easy one: People don’t have pictures of relatives who were murdered by demons.

Hard and fast rule of legitimate policing:

With the sole exception of the undercover infiltration of criminal activity, if as an officer you undertake duties that cause you to hide your identity from the public then what you are doing is corrupt and immoral. Also, you're an asshole.

Only 7 out of 71 employees at the Los Alamos NNSA field site are working, the rest furloughed.

At the Albuquerque site (overseeing Sandia NM), only 7/81.

"The furloughs are the [NNSA's] first since its creation in 2000, as none occurred during previous shutdowns"

Tear gassing random residential streets is just absolutely psychotic behavior.
