The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

Sometimes a user will post a joke and then that very same user will post something sincere. And I as the reader am expected to understand this, using my brain?

The grand unified “Everyone is Twelve” theory is a legit contribution to contemporary thought and critique. We really are ruled by evil adult children!

Our Ward 3 for everyone happy hour was a lovely meet-up with likeminded folks. We’ve got a lot to champion- Wisconsin & Conn Aves rezoning, a new Comp Plan in the works. Grateful for partners working together.

These people are evil. Never stop saying so. Don’t be intimidated into shutting up.

I love living in a city full of immigrants and tons and tons of people who are not at all like me and not like each other. It makes us all better and it makes our city better. I know I’m preaching to the choir by saying this on the lib app but I sometimes just get so overwhelmed by how special it is

This is so dark

Purple Line light rail vehicles are running to an actual station as part of testing! This testing runs from 9 pm to 5 am and started with New Carrollton.

The original testing was limited to the one one-milemile test track at the Glenridge Operations and Maintenance facility.

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

thank you brett kavanaugh!

Dunno man, seems a little misleading to write an article about Trump describing activity in Portland and Chicago as “insurrection” with a 33 year old photo of a burning donut shop taken in the 1992 LA Riots (sans caption explaining that) as the header on all your posts about it.

N.Y.C. Mayor's Race > Who's Running Capitalizing on Adams's Departur By Kellen Browning Photographs by Jordan Gale Reporting from Portland, Ore. Oct. 4, 2025 Too extreme. Too inexperienced. An absolute disaster. Mainstream politicians are sharpening their attacks, and the wealthy are threatening to move away as a socialist revolution sweeps through the city. They're not talking about Zohran Mamdani or his plans for New York City. Rather, they are agonizing over the scene in Portland, Ore., where the democratic socialist principles espoused by Mr. Mamdani - the front-runner to become New York's next mayor — have already taken root at City Hall.

Am I going insane or does the top of this NYT story on Portland read like vintage Breitbart?

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE
Truth: No cars rammed ICE

Claim: She boxed ICE in
Truth: ICE boxed her in

Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE
Truth: She did not have a rifle

Claim: ICE returned fire
Truth: Only ICE fired

Claim: She drove herself to the hospital
Truth: Paramedics found her

Trump take pasta

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

Rob Thompson watches Dave Roberts fuck up and, not wanting to be outdone as a fuckup, calls for a bunt with a man on second and no one out. Jesus H. Christ.

This is the state secret police committing acts of public humiliation and torture. Americans don’t have a language for this in the public consciousness but that is what this is with no exaggeration or embellishment.

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

The media trots out the "deplorable" comment from a decade ago to castigate the left. Once a week now Trump implies that the military should destroy democrats, and it is just how things are.

Maybe the real ACT Gala wasn’t the ACT Gala, but the buses we took along the way 🥰 @actfortransit.bsky.social

nothing but respect for MY life of a showgirl

A Metro train wrapped in red/silver/blue with the text “2025 APTA Transit Agency of the Year” and text contours across the car onto the next photo

the same Metro train in previous photo wrapped in red/silver/blue with the text “the best in North America because of you”

omg while I was Metro-ing to the game yesterday, I spotted this beauty at Gallery Place and scampered down the platform to get a photo 😊🚇

There has been basically no (public) reckoning with the democratic strategists who said that "raising the salience" of immigration/deportations in ~March would help Trump, which was obviously wrong at the time and has been proved wrong over the last 6 months www.gelliottmorris.com/p/kilmar-abr...

Screen shot from CNN article linked in the first comment “Across the country, US-born children have become collateral damage in the Trump administration's unprecedented crackdown on undocumented immigrants. CNN identified more than 100 US citizen children, from newborns to teenagers, who have been left stranded without parents because of immigration actions this year, according to a review of verified crowdfunding campaigns, public records and interviews with families, friends, immigration attorneys and other advocates.”

Look your nation right in the face

Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Spanish-language journalist arrested while covering protest near Atlanta deported to El Salvador A Spanish-language journalist who lived and worked in Georgia has been deported to El Salvador. Mario Guevara was detained in June while covering a protest near Atlanta.

In 11 years of being in DC, including several years of being a daily metro commuter, I have never had a problem on any metro train or bus. They are lying, they know they're lying, and the target is an audience that can't tell the difference and never will be able to.

So much to mourn here. ICE shot and killed a single father just after he has dropped his two kids off at daycare. Their justification for stopping him was traffic violations form 12 years ago. Their justification for shooting him was that he was driving away.

A completely needless tragedy.
