Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.

It's been 35 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

"The odd American idea that giving money to political campaigns is free speech means that the very rich have far more speech, and so in effect far more voting power, than other citizens."

Nothing to see here, folks 🤫🤔

Tim Cook was at Trump's speech in Tokyo today nodding along as Trump spewed lies

At the behest of corporate lobbyists, Trump's CFPB will block states from erasing medical debt from credit reports.

This comes as the GOP allows ACA subsidies to expire – which could cause millions to go uninsured and medical debt to skyrocket.

A perfect storm of cruelty.

Trump is met with utter silence from the troops in Japan as he lies that "grocery prices are way down"

Brown’s attorney (Judkins) said he spent three nights in jail because the judge didn’t consider the shooting because the cops didn’t mention it. END/

Trump administration quietly purges ICE leaders in five cities: Sources The Trump administration has replaced senior ICE personnel in five cities with Border Patrol officials.

Other outlets are now reporting. First to report tonight was Anna Giaritelli at the Washington Examiner, whose story if anything missed how big the purge was. It's not just five cities; ICE Field Office Directors are being fired in at least a dozen cities, and will be replaced by CBP people instead.

Sotomayor's dissent was appropriately blunt. Boyd did exactly what SCOTUS has said is needed to prevail on an 8th Amendment challenge to an execution method: he proposed a readily available alternative (firing squad) and conclusively showed it would be far less torturous, as it obviously would be.

The US is seeing the largest number of layoffs since 2020, with nearly 1 million people losing their jobs so far this year.

A Donor-Funded Army Wouldn’t Just Be Illegal—It Would be Dangerous You don’t need a political-science degree to understand why wealthy individuals cutting secret checks to the president to pay the military is a bad idea.

“You don’t need a political-science degree to understand why having wealthy individuals cutting secret checks to the president to pay the military is a bad idea,” @dgraham.bsky.social argues in The Atlantic Daily.

This is what brought the start of the french revolution.

Pro Tip: If they’re giving you tests that involve identifying tigers and giraffes and sh*t as a grown ass adult that isn’t something you should brag on.

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money!

I’m old enough to remember when First Lady’s would accompany their husband’s on week long foreign trips. They didn’t even spring for a fake Melania in this second term. It’s also weird that Barron supposedly lives in the White House now, what for? Freeloading grifter freaks.

Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva. She was elected more than a month ago.

Donald J Trump is a domestic terrorist.

"It's disheartening to be forced to go against your community members and your neighbors," said Staff Sgt. Demi Palecek, a Latina guardswoman who is refusing to deploy in Chicago. "It feels illegal. This is not what we signed up to do."

Blending Halo’s “Destroy the Flood” with ICE recruitment casts immigrants as parasitic threats and valorizes state violence as some heroic quest.

Why, Riley Gaines?

Haven't finished fifth lately?

the distance between regular people and politicians/political media is nearing crisis levels. at some point there’s gonna be violent revolt and the responsibility will lay with the people who’ve choked off all avenues for non-violent change far more than the people engaged in violence themselves

A cat is seen riding a bus. They are standing up and have their front paws on the back of the front seat.

this is what will happen if mamdani makes bus rides free

Seems like an important detail

This is why they ban books.
~ The Grapes of Wrath
This has been the most banned book in history ..

They can't deal with the truth ..

The official statement from the MAGA White House as the US hits a rapidly increasing all-time high $38 trillion national debt, is:

“At this moment in time, the ballroom is really the president's main priority.”

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but “changing your mind” about a disaster politician isn’t betrayal. It’s called “using your brain."

The U.S. has conducted 10 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing 43 people.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

This is a danger to us all.
