This was twenty-three months ago. Israeli forces have killed more than 16,365 kids since.

How Trump gets and processes information How Trump is making potentially lethal decisions

How did I miss this? Trump thinks Portland is on fire and is justified in sending in the troops because he watched a five-year-old clip on Fox? Are you kidding me? We are so in 25th Amendment territory. Biden never did anything close to this:

this feels like forty years ago but it was 2023

All I’ve heard for years is that the Phillies were a different team in October because of their home field advantage (they just pack their playoff games like everyone else does)

1-5 last six home playoff games
0-2, possibly soon 0-3 in recent series with HFA

SUE. HIM.

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

It’s time—it was time, years and years ago—to stop quoting the police for their account of events, esp those involving them, immediately after said event.

“ICE officers shot a man. ICE provided a comment, but will refrain from reporting it until we have more information and confirmation.”

No ManOm but back next week #kpiss #🍯🌛

Please please please spread the word about Ben Chou.

Go Ben!!!

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.

Fort Greene's Newest Burger Counter Has a Pro-Palestine Mission Every combo meal you order at Shoof Burger sends $1 to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund.

"The online negative reviews have been non-stop," Shoof Burger owner David said. "We were down to a 1.6 star rating on Google before we even opened! To hate my restaurant, which you obviously haven't been to, because I don't want Palestinians to die, seems foolish."

Kristi Noem about to somehow violate the 3rd Amendment in the year of our lord 2025

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

“A Texas man is behind bars after allegedly threatening to shoot up the Abilene Pride Parade to seek revenge for the assassination of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk.”

This morning, hours after a federal judge ruled that it would be illegal to federalize and deploy Oregon National Guard troops in Portland, Trump deployed federalized California National Guard troops in Portland. 1/16

Tweet from the VP: Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most. Yet she oozes with contempt. My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much happier person if you showed a little gratitude

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

The ICE agents deploying these are people without necessary training, those who couldn’t cut it in police training or didn’t want to join the military.

They are in this to hurt people and play Call of Duty on our streets, deploying chemical weapons on our neighbors as if they’re pressing L1.

You.

It’s a core First Amendment principle. This is utterly lawless behavior, for which there will be no (short-term) consequences.

That he does it so casually, as they are walking away, in front of cameras.

Rightly confident in his impunity.

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

These fucking idiots don’t know the difference between “shutdown” and “shut down”

Hillary Clinton referred to SOME Trump supporters as”deplorable,” and the political media had a meltdown. Trump refers to all Democrats as anti-American radical communists and “the enemy within,” and it’s no big deal. His reckless and dangerous demonization has been fully normalized.

It's very clear that @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social has no moral compass. He posed for photos with a genocidal war criminal (Netanyahu) and now he's praising a corrupt criminal (Adams).

The Democratic Party needs to clean house ASAP.

Adams has had one of the worst impacts on the criminal justice system and perception of the Democratic party, as a Democratic mayor of any city, in modern history.

And we have one of the national leaders of the party publicly praising him! (And bashing his extremely popular Dem opponent!)

This is not something you release for voters to read.

Eric Adams was a stain on the Democratic party. He was insanely corrupt, sent the party back years, continues to kiss up to fascism, lied regularly, and was obsessed with giving the NYPD as much unchecked abuse of power and force as he could.

Ted Cruz blocks bill that would extend privacy protections to all Americans | TechCrunch The Texas senator blocked a bill that would have prevented data brokers from selling personal data on anyone in the United States, and not just federal lawmakers and government officials.

New: Last night in the Senate, Ted Cruz blocked a bill that would have prevented data brokers from selling personal data on anyone in the United States, and not just federal lawmakers and government officials.

In case we forget because so much happens every day, I think it's pretty clear they knew EXACTLY whom they blew up because Vance said as much and I hope someone will report on this
