Violent J6er takes guns to Obama’s house. Trump admin says, meh, don’t prosecute.

Peaceful protester is thrown to the ground by ICE agents. Trump admin says prosecute to full extent of the law.

A regular reminder that congressional Republicans can put country over party anytime they want but choose not to.

Two passages that stood out to me

Speaker Johnson and the GOP majorities may have given the power to send US taxpayer dollars to a foreign country to the executive branch, but the Constitution clearly gives that power to Congress.

(This is why I’ve had to teach my US foreign policy class this semester as a sort of before-and-after)

I realize this isn't breaking news but it's insane that voting has begun and Chuck Schumer — leader of the Democratic party — is straight-up refusing to endorse the Democratic nominee for mayor, whose opponent is an alleged serial sexual abuser funded by Trump-allied billionaires

from @bofrenchtx Bo French SNAP runs out on November 1st. Are you prepared? November 1, 2025 is National Chimp Out Day. It’s going to be lit. 🔥

if you're wondering how things are going in texas, the chairman of the Tarrant County GOP is joking that Nov. 1st, the day SNAP benefits are poised to run out, is "National Chimp Out Day"

⚡️At least 63 Palestinians, including 24 children, have been killed in ongoing Israeli airstrikes targeting homes and tents sheltering displaced families across the Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera reports, citing hospital sources.

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

I lost my job, the price of groceries is way up, my gardener was deported, and they canceled funding for the experimental cancer treatment that was my only chance to live another year. But at least my damn neighbor is afraid to wear a keffiyeh now.

'Washington Post' editorials omit a key disclosure: Bezos' financial ties Three times in the past two weeks, editorials at the 'Washington Post' failed to disclose that they focused on matters in which owner Jeff Bezos had a material interest.

Yes, but given the political landscape that legislation won't come. So the next-best thing is a boycott.

You really should stop engaging with GPTs. You are giving AI companies free labor to train their products which they will eventually turn around and shackle you with.

Financial Times headline says “critics accuse” Trump of extrajudicial killings

I’m sorry, why are we using “critics accuse” language here? These are factually, unambiguously, extrajudicial killings. It’s not an opinion. It’s not a disputed or disputable claim.

The East Wing has learned its lesson.

Hours after Cuomo’s campaign posts — and quickly deletes — a racialized ad depicting “criminals for Zohran,” this is Cuomo’s message:

he's knocking down the literal white house and illegally murdering people by dropping bombs on international boats and the government has been shut down for weeks and it's just like....yep

The appointment of John Kirby to direct the Institute of Politics is shocking and disgraceful. Kirby misled the public systematically over a long period, over grave matters of life and death. He has no place in an institution committed to truthful inquiry or a democratic public sphere.

Scahill: “When you hear Jared Kushner or Steve Witkoff saying anything other than ‘Hamas is the obstruction,’ that’s a marked change from what we saw under Biden and at other times under Trump.”

A fun byproduct of unitary executive theory—if the president controls everyone under him, he can demand they transfer hundreds of millions in tax dollars into his bank account

It's going up to $40 billion.

USAID's budget last year was $28 billion.

There is no conceivable argument that these ships, even if we assume they were carrying narcotics, could not be dealt with in some other way. I think we can just drop the caveats and say: This is mass murder.
