Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

This week has been a wild fucking ride.

a lot of people are finally waking up to the importance of the 3rd amendment. As a 3A absolutist, i think it should be illegal for soldiers to be quartered anywhere in this country. they should be camping under the open sky at all times. all military bases and barracks are unconstitutional.

That's an ADORABLE gif

Dear every fucking reporter

Trump is not cracking down on the left

Trump is making up lies to attack America

We don't need to hear from 10 citizens who have never been to Portland, give their opinion on the state of Portland - we need objective truth about what is happening you spineless fucks

I didn't even know it was Black speculative fiction month but I just finished Loving Safoa and it was so fun! Brilliantly written, reflective, leisurely and well crafted. I also didn't realise Stone and Steel was Neon Hemlock. Maybe I'll try and get to that this month too! #blackbooksky #booksky

Has Your Scientific Work Been Cut? We Want to Hear.

NYT wants to hear from researchers who had their funding cut, form here: www.nytimes.com/2025/10/08/c...

This is the genius of the Portland protests - they make the claims of lawlessness look not just wrong, but comical

a thing i am intrigued by: some museums release public domain 3d scans of their artifacts and there are people who just upload those to steam workshops for different games. i love the idea of someone having a relationship with like 15th century vases that comes from them being free in steam

When prices were going up under Biden there was a constant deluge of news stories about it because the media did not like Biden and wanted him to lose. Under Trump there is not a constant deluge of news stories about coffee prices because they like Trump and want him to win

Please acknowledge what is happening to American professors right now.

We do not deserve this.

The thing that most people don't realize is that the deportation machine was already operating at capacity. No one, ever, was just allowing millions of undocumented immigrants into the country willy-nilly. That was mythology. The process to get legal status in this country is already a very high bar

None of us can do everything but each of us can do SOMETHING.

May the other states take note.

Well well well if it isn't my old friend, emotionally debilitating anxiety

Judge blocks National Guard deployment in Illinois for 2 weeks A judge has blocked the deployment of National Guard troops in the Chicago area for two weeks, finding no substantial evidence that a “danger of rebellion” is brewing in Illinois.

BREAKING: A judge blocks the deployment of National Guard troops in the Chicago area for two weeks.

This is a great angle I haven't seen noted before: The chilling effect that military presence has on people exercising their Constitutional rights. How many people, for instance, would avoid in-person voting if their polling locations were surrounded by armed soldiers?

Hamilton responds, with anger in his voice, “This is no Carrie Underwood song.”

Perry then asks for more specifics about the agent who “had his beard ripped off” and the discovery of an alleged “improvised explosive device” at Broadview.

DOJ has nothing more to add.

Perry: How do you respond to the plaintiffs' contention that any unrest, any violence is the fault of how federal agents are interacting with members of the public? Does it matter if their conduct is why they can't execute federal laws?
Hamilton: No.

There is nothing unusual about National Guard troops from being sent from one state to another, Hamilton says.
CONTEXT: Those deployments happen with the consent of those state's governors.

Lawyer for the DOJ say federal agents are under attack by those who oppose the president's lawful enforcement of immigration enforcement agents.
He says protestors have been armed outside Broadview.
CONTEXT: Those protestors were carrying guns legally, and a grand jury declined to indict them.

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms.

Merrick Garland also stated he was never pressured and never heard from the White House about any of his prosecutions, including when Biden's own son was indicted and went to trial.

The two situations are not even remotely comparable, and Dems need to do a much better job of calling this out.
