The fact that so many US citizens have no idea Bad Bunny is also a US citizen (and don't believe he can be a US citizen) tells you that when they say "citizen," they really just mean white.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

Acting Director of the CDC, literally working to make life harder for parents, more dangerous for children, and easier for deadly infectious disease pathogens

“You’re always playing the race card”

Anyone who says this has no idea how power dynamics work.

Race is not a card I can play. It is a hand I’m dealt.

Black people have never had the power to keep white people from voting, reading, or writing. If anyone’s had a race card, it’s white people.

1. Today, I have a few things to say about that putz Stephen Miller. First, he’s been on TV a lot lately, because that’s how he pours more poison into the president’s already-poisoned brain.

Renewable energy outpaces coal for electricity generation in historic first, report says For the first time on record, renewable energy generated more electricity for the planet than coal, a new report says.

Our US media system is weaker now than it was two years ago:
**Capitulating to Trump
**Weaponizing the FCC
**Conservative takeover of CBS
**Bezos-ization of WP/Soon-Shiong-ification of LA Times
**Rescinding public media Fed funding
**Continuing TV station owner consolidation
**Journalist layoffs

"Garbage" is far too kind a description of what the Washington Post's ed page has become.

It's so hard to prioritize, but is this the worst of the hundreds (thousands?) of Trump's lies? It is so dangerous, so partisan, and so disconnected from facts.

Reminder this is all happening because Republicans refuse to let you have affordable health care.

The Supreme Court’s Dark Money Man Is Trying to Make It Harder to Vote Leonard Leo’s network is bankrolling the main donor behind a ballot initiative in Maine that would limit absentee voting and impose voter ID requirements.

Important reporting from Zeteo's new political reporter @andrewperez.bsky.social

He had an "annual physical" like five months ago, BTW

Miller is lying in order to get you (and “low-info voters”) to give up. Without surrender, Miller and the rest of the regime got nothing. They believe you will believe their lies and conquer yourself. But they can’t conquer you if you don’t believe them.

Maybe Pritzker can offer to send in the IL National Guard

Before Trump Ordered In Troops, Federal Officers Called Portland Protests ‘Low Energy’

"The Federal Protective Service reports — which are prepared each day for law enforcement partners — offered no indication of a dangerous escalation of tensions, or unusual levels of protest activity that would prompt the level of alarm expressed by Trump..."

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/08/u...

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

YouTube video by PBS NewsHour WATCH: Sen. Schiff questions Attorney General Pam Bondi on Justice Department in Trump's 2nd term

Her "testimony" should immediately end the AG's career. Now, it's another day in Trumpland.

At the 6:00 mark: Sen Schiff to AG Bondi: "these are just some of the questions you refuse to answer, but or have answered with personal attacks on members of this committee." www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmh4...

This from @jessicatarlov.bsky.social may be the most efficient use of 76 seconds of Fox News airtime I've ever seen.

Donald Trump Truth Social Post: Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

trump: transgenders and windmills all over the place

This is a real quote. This is the most horrific thing he can conjure up

The Post laid off seemingly the remaining of their liberal-leaning staff members on Opinion last Thursday, when some of them were observing Yom Kippur.

Bondi reading from formatted lines on paper in answering a question to Sen Whitehouse about whether Tom Homan kept the 50k is quite telling…to say the least

Legacy newspapers: "Print media is dying, and the public will suffer for it."

Also legacy newspapers: "We can't offend the government with information and framing that helps the public."
