What’s so weird about men in power is how when they face scandal and should step down the world acts like no one else can do their jobs. Bottstein, Wasserman, these aren’t irreplaceable men! Stop with this delusion.

Seeing a lot of comments about this being a tragic accident, we should feel bad for this elderly woman etc.

If you drive 70 mph in a residential area, you're an asshole.

If you kill 4 people as a consequence of being an asshole, you should go to jail and definitely never be allowed to drive again

"The rebuild has to be swing for the fucking fences"

YES!

Not something to brag about, in my opinion.

Ice planning to acquire $38 billion in warehouses to create detention centers all over the U.S.

There is no easier or more important political position to take than to do everything possible to stop this. It will change our society forever, and Democrats are going along with it.

JFC, cut that shit in half and you’ve eradicated hunger, provided healthcare for all and made education free for all Americans. What the fuck are we doing?

Ofelia Torres, the teenage Chicago Public Schools student whose fight against cancer while her father was detained by ICE came to represent the federal government's overreach during Operation Midway Blitz, has died. Brave young woman. I will never forget her. RIP.

It’s ironic that they’re like “if we do ethnic cleansing we’ll have a high trust neighborly society” and then Minneapolis is literally doing high trust neighborly society and they’re like nooooo

It's your bday. Spark it

yes, dear God, yes.

Cars are an invasive species. They make the case for tighter controls every single day.

"The day of accountability will come": Rep. Delia Ramirez on abolishing and prosecuting DHS The Handbasket spoke with the congresswoman who called out ICE long before it was popular.

NEW — I spoke with Rep. Delia Ramirez (@ramirez.house.gov) about her calling DHS leaders "inheritors of the Klan hood and the slave patrol," the prospect of one day seeing them behind bars, and what it's like to see the public [finally] embrace her long-held dream to abolish ICE.

Our conversation:

She fucking killed an entire family while speeding in her Mercedes SUV and they’re not going to even take her license away??

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

There’s a direct connection between the CTA letting anything go on the ‘L’ for the last six years and the Cubs wanting to build nearly 400 more parking spaces in Wrigleyville

After it was clear Lau was considering changing her plea, San Francisco Superior Court Judge Bruce Chan said that the loss of life was “incomprehensible.” Chan said his duty was to balance the deaths with the other factors of the case, including Lau’s age, her lack of criminal history and her remorse, as well as the fact that her own husband had died in a car accident early on in their marriage.

This judge is a menace.

Why is age an excuse, as if her own age was a surprise to the driver?

If she had remorse beyond crocodile tears why did she hide her money from her victims' family?

If she was so sad about her husband dying in a crash why didn't she avoid driving dangerously?

Can’t build higher than four floors because “think of the traffic!” but adding 368 more cars to Wrigleyville 81 times a year gets rubber-stamped without a second thought, okay

This boy been waiting to haul off on somebody for 14 years and today he got to live the dream and stand on the right side of history. Friday the 13th is the greatest day of his life.

Let's make Wrigleyville more dangerous and unpleasant for the people who actually live here.

We need LESS traffic in Lakeview.

"Republicans were ready. Democrats weren't." is an apt description of most of the major social & political developments of my lifetime.

Man, I'm really not sure this guy should be given the glossy NYT treatment? youtu.be/wprWGdfXxnQ?...

end qualified immunity and make cops carry personal liability insurance

Reuters Exclusive: White House uses USAID funds for budget director Vought's security, documents show By Jonathan Landay and Douglas Gillison February 13, 2026 6:02 AM EST • Updated 50 mins ago

MAGA is a cult of personality who worship celebrity and ostentatious wealth and all its vulgar trappings. Every Trump appointee is living out a jet-setter fantasy, traveling around the world on private jets with a retinue of bodyguards and valets carrying their shopping bags.

How to fix all city finances: make the police officers pay for doing this shit, not the city

DHS is shutting down. Why? Because Democrats took an oath of office to uphold the Constitution and ICE is lawless and out of control. We cannot fund an agency that is murdering our citizens, tear gassing school zones, and disappearing legal immigrants.

I actually think it’s a good thing to not preemptively swear you’ll vote for Gavin Newsome before he’s the candidate

I think the government shouldn't be run by the most miserable psychopaths on the planet

I miss the era when things were otherwise running so uneventfully the press would feast on a sex scandal like this until someone blinked.
