Shaheen, a retiring Dem Rs are looking to flip on shutdown, says of OMB threats on back pay: “It would be a lot easier to resolve the situation if Russ Vought would stop talking.”

I'm on the record saying that Russ Vought will do things during the shutdown that will make his illegal rescissions visible in the way they otherwise weren't. And boy howdy, threatening to ignore the law on backpay is a great example. [corrected]

Did this story not get any traction because it turned out to be about gendered violence? Really weird for 3 police officers to be killed in a shooting and it not be plastered everywhere. www.pbs.org/newshour/nat...

“Did you know Black people have an extra muscle for crime?!””

It’s in the public’s interest to see the video of Border Czar Tom Homan who’s kidnapping immigrants with no criminal records & haven’t taken bribes to steer gov contracts & denying them due process. THIS IS THE IMM ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES! THIS CORRUPTION IS PERVASIVE! Someday, you will believe me.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Trump administration taps new US attorney in eastern Virginia amid fallout from Siebert resignation Trump forced out Erik Siebert from the role amid reports an investigation into New York Attorney General Letitia James was not resulting in charges.

I'm told Maggie Cleary, the new acting US Attorney in EDVA, left her post as deputy commonwealth attorney in Culpeper, VA five days ago on Sept. 15, 2025.

Note: One reason Trump may be saying "we have to act fast."

The comments Jim Comey made to Congress they want to prosecute were made on September 30, 2020.

They've got 8 days to charge it.

this charlie kirk deification is some of the weirdest shit i have ever seen

Liu Yuning. He's exquisite.

Met their bounty quota for the day. Kidnap/arrest more people = bigger bonus check.

Loved his reaction

just a casual reminder to those outside public health that RFK Jr. didn’t repair CDC’s offices before forcing staff to return monday because he wants the damage to intimidate and traumatize federal workers

Rep. James Comer @RepJamesComer X.com BREAKING I'm calling on the CEOs of Discord, Steam, Twitch, & Reddit to testify at an Oversight Committee hearing on October 8. The hearing will examine the radicalization of online forum users, including instances of open incitement to commit politically motivated acts. 10:50 AM • 9/17/25 • 301K Views

the Colorado school shooter from the same day that Charlie Kirk was killed posted himself holding his gun on Twitter / X where he followed multiple far right accounts

weird how you wouldn't call on Elon Musk too to testify at an online radicalization hearing

After hiring Trumpworld lobbyists, the airline industry got Trump's DOT to:

-Scrap a rule requiring compensation for excessive delays
-Plan to rescind requirements for airlines to disclose junk fees
-Reconsider which flight cancellations require refunds

"Drain the swamp."

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

I've seen people on the left and right say they think the texts between the shooter and his roommate were fabricated in some way. this is extraordinarily unlikely simply because defense counsel would figure this out almost immediately in discovery.

She's inspirational

Oseguera caught another break from the Trump administration. The president’s campaign to deport immigrants in the U.S. illegally has taken federal agents away from drug-traffic interdiction. In Arizona, two Customs and Border Protection checkpoints along a main fentanyl-smuggling corridor from Mexico have been left unstaffed. Officers stationed there were sent to process detained migrants. A senior administration official said the U.S. border is more secure than it has ever been. Colombia is producing records amounts of cocaine, and the volume of the drug arriving in the U.S. is driving down prices, the people familiar with cartel operations said. Cocaine prices have fallen by nearly half to around $60 to $75 a gram compared with five years ago, said Morgan Godvin, a researcher with the community organization Drug Checking Los Angeles. “The price of pure cocaine has plummeted,” Godvin said.

The Trump-Miller administration's single-minded focus on migration is starting to impact the availability of drugs in the US, according to this detail from a very good investigation @wsj.com published today.

More than 1 in 4 unemployed workers have been out of work for at least 6 months. Nearly a million people could be pushed into poverty by Trump’s tariffs.

Meanwhile, Trump and Republicans have gutted the social safety net.

He is creating the perfect storm of economic misery.
