US postal worker charged with breaking man out of ICE custody on Long Island Police arrested the worker and the man she tried to free.

"During the drive to the station, prosecutors say she made statements to officers about immigration enforcement, including, “Why are you doing this to your people?” and “What are you going to tell your children about what you do?”

it feels like its three hundred oclock

It Happened Here: 'Bins of Light' installed as capstone for East Lincoln Avenue underpass The concept called for a “kinetic electric-light sculpture” consisting of 56 glass panels cut to the size of fruit bins and arranged as if they were stacked by the warehouses

I remember reading Letters to the Editor complaining that this art installation was installed backwards. I always wondered if that was true. This article clears it up. #Yakima

Gregory Bovino is exactly who E.B. White — author of 'Charlotte's Web' — warned us about DHS named its North Carolina anti-immigrant effort "Operation Charlotte's Web." In 1940, White wrote of the "smell" that "rises" from those who "adjust to fascism" over freedom.

Worth a read....

Trump, Border Patrol Retreat in Failure from Chicago Five important lessons of the first six months of Trump’s immigration raids — and why CBP’s Greg Bovino is the Nathan Bedford Forrest of the Trump era.

Good stuff this morning from @vermontgmg.bsky.social. doomsdayscenario.co/p/trump-border-patrol-retreat-in-failure-from-chicago

I love that Zohran did not praise Cuomo in his speech. You absolutely do not have to say nice things about bad people. We should normalize that in “polite” politics: Praising bad people is not actually “civility.”

so where are the op-eds about republican overreach today? where’s the commentary about donald trumps war against american citizens or his terror campaign targeting brown people? where’s the pearl clutching over the conservative social media bubble reliant on nazi propagandists?

No institutional design can overcome a lawbreaking president, a Congress defending lawbreaking and forfeiting its own power, a Supreme Court that pretends legal text doesn’t count to facilitate lawbreaking, and a citizenry that votes for all that.
Need at least one that wants rule of law. Maybe two.

there is a government shutdown with no end in sight and it’s not even really the lead story rn because the president can’t stop invading American cities for no reason other than spite

"Becca, will I continue to receive my Social Security and SSI payments if the government is shut down?

Yes.

"Will I still be able to use my Medicare or Medicaid?"

Also yes.

Huntington's disease successfully treated for first time One of the most devastating diseases finally has a treatment that can slow its progression and transform lives, tearful doctors tell BBC.

"An emotional research team became tearful as they described how data shows the disease was slowed by 75% in patients...Prof Tabrizi says this gene therapy 'is the beginning' and will open the gates for therapies that can reach more people."🧪⚕️

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

reposting with alt text because this feels incredibly significant. the right-wing disinfo machine means a lot of the people grieving Charlie Kirk never heard any of the things he said that would have tarnished his brand as Guy Who Just Wants to Have Dialogue Across the Aisle

The Washington Post Fired Me — But My Voice Will Not Be Silenced. I spoke out against hatred and violence in America — and it cost me my job.

Some personal news:

I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.

Thread incoming.

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

i think anyone saying he practiced politics the right way or that we should continue his work should first have to read out loud his last days worth of posts to someone they love who doesnt know who he is

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

MUST WATCH: Sen. Maria Cantwell calls RFK Jr. a charlatan

PUBLIC HEALTH ORDER NEW MEXICO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SECRETARY GINA DEBLASSIE AUGUST 29, 2025 Ensuring Availability of COVID-19 Vaccine for the 2025-2026 Season

THIS ORDER supersedes any previous order, proclamation, or directives to the extent they are in conflict. This Public Order shall take effect immediately and remain in effect until such time as it automatically expires one year from the date of issuance, or until such time as the New Mexico Department of Health Cabinet Secretary rescinds it.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

For those of you who don’t like to open links or don’t have instagram. I downloaded the video for you.
If you haven’t heard about this guy before don’t scroll past it, his name is Jesse Welles. I promise you won’t be disappointed. #jessewelles #wellesmusic #thekaelosproject #kaelos #wordshaveweight

Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago:

"If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."

this is why i tell people to try ready-to-wear first. custom is risky bc you can be out here railing against "white hippies and communists," but your tailor has you looking crazy without a breast pocket.

He’s such an angry little man. Even his “tough” talk makes him look like the weakling he is.

Queued up and ready to play on my drive home.

This guy's a vet and a lawyer who threw a sandwich and offered to turn himself in, so they sent a paramilitary platoon with a camera crew.

They have FBI and U.S. Marshal badges; apparently those agencies do no real work beyond camera stunts, harassing minorities, and filling concentration camps.

Grossly irresponsible of the Times to have this ludicrous credulous spin as the top story the morning after a president who rules by fiat proclaims a totally specious emergency to militarize the capital - an editorial insult to our intelligence and our democracy.

Genuinely incredible that she's saying this with 2 accused rapists on either side of her

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

JD Vance and other pedophile protection party officials are holding an emergency meeting tonight over their strategy on the Epstein files.

This cover-up is a disgrace to Epstein’s victims. The American people deserve transparency and accountability.

Release the Epstein files.
