ICE’s Spectacle of Intimidation Immigrants showing up for court dates in Manhattan must now navigate past rows of masked federal agents.

Mark Peterson’s black-and-white images of ICE agents evoke film noir and the urban-crime photography of the 1930s and ’40s. “If someone is doing everything right, and then they still get detained, it’s a crime scene,” he said.

Epstein accuser Maria Farmer on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I’ve never met a more predatory, terrifying human being in my entire life. She’s a very dangerous person. The woman is not a victim, she’s a victimizer.”

The vibes at the Tesla Diner are unmatched

People are wasting away into dust, but the truly sad thing is that no one has sufficiently praised DonaldTrump. Got it.

That turned out great! Some classic Bluth eye and color work hidden in there! 😍

Welcome to the World Cup in Donald Trump’s America!

Being uninvited from the White House caused Rand Paul to lose a lot of the respect he had for Donald Trump that Trump’s two impeachments, insurrection, four criminal indictments, criminal conviction, and sexual abuse damages verdict did not cause him to lose. Got it.

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

Everyone should look on the bright side: We have no idea if Trump will send Seal Team Six after Gov. Newsom. But at least we know that, if Trump did it, he’d be immune from criminal prosecution for doing it.

California Governor Gavin Newsom’s office posts a video of Emperor Palpatine reciting Donald Trump’s Truth Social post about L.A.

Read? The Gazpacho Police and Peachtree Dish lady?

It's been over 20 years since this clip from Michael Moore's 'Fahrenheit 9/11,' and members of Congress still aren't reading bills before voting for them.

Daaaamn.

Why would he expect anyone to believe this if they go out and see that it's wrong?

Panel 1: A young Shen is at an old CRT monitor computer, smiling happily. He says "wow, websites are so cool! The internet is SO COOL!" Panel 2: Young Shen's eyes sparkle and he clasps his hands together and looks up in wonder, saying "I can't wait to see what the internet will be like in the FUTURE!" Panel 3: Young Shen notices an older Shen coming through a time portal in his room. He's excited to see what news his older self will bring of the internet of the future! Panel 4: The older Shen shakes his head with a strained facial expression.

We should have government funds for grandstanding.

They just pinned these up in the China/Japan locker room:

'Fighting to breathe': Whooping cough surges as vaccination rates drop There have been 8,064 reported cases of whooping cough in the U.S., compared with 3,835 for the same time in 2024, according to CDC data.

Please be aware that measles is not the only vaccine-preventable disease that is currently blowing up in the USA due to vaccine misinformation. Whooping cough has kicked the door down also.

Vaccinate. Defend public health.

“Gun registry?

No. Can't do it.

Impossible.

Autism registry?

Yes, we need to know where you are...”

“Fuck all the way off, sir.”

Seriously! 😎✨

After many recommendations, I finally started watching the Star Wars show Andor. I found this moment from season 1 to be particularly relevant. What do you think?

Do not let Trump gaslight you into believing he has a mandate or is all powerful.

Most Americans don't support his cruel agenda.

His approval ratings are in the gutter.

Individuals and institutions are fighting back in courts and winning.

Keep up the fight.

I think once the Stout alt-right media that it was given to for a photo op realize Trump's name was in it more than anyone else's, it's probably a good thing to bury. Now these guys have never had any issue running with anything before they have facts but now...?
