NEWS: The Trump admin's decision to suspend SNAP benefits due to the shutdown has been blocked. In two cases, both judges found the government action is likely illegal. Although a judge in Mass gave the admin until Monday to reverse course, a judge in Rhode Island issued a TRO from the bench today.

Across my FedBook feed, I am seeing some comrades coordinating and encouraging others to buy out street vendors so that those people aren't exposed to potential kidnapping. While it's beyond distressing to know how at risk they are, I am also taking so much heart in how people are moving to help.

lmao this is how stupid Paxton is.

"Boom! Lawsuit!" (I imagine that's how lawsuits are brought)

"Prove it!"

"Oh. Shit."

ADL removes ‘Protect Civil Rights’ from website as it narrows its mission amid right-wing attacks - Jewish Telegraphic Agency The removal took place after FBI Director Kash Patel said he would cut ties with the ADL, though it is unclear if that has happened.

Anyway if you still work at this genocidal hate group working on behalf of apartheid in Israel and fascism in the US—and if you still quote them as an authority in any news story—you're endangering all of us.

In Utah, Trump’s Vision for Homelessness Begins to Take Shape

Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

Vital reporting from @ellenbarry.bsky.social and Jason DeParle:

PEORIA, Ill. (AP) — Illinois deputy found guilty of murder in the shooting of Sonya Massey, a Black woman who called 911 asking for help.

The “press” asks about the East Wing.

that noise you just heard is the sound of a thousand medievalists screaming

also, we should take a moment for the British slang expression “hard man”, because it’s not a compliment

A scanned legal document from the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, titled “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. MICHAEL RABBITT, KATHERINE MARIE ABUGHAZALEH, ANDRE MARTIN, CATHERINE SHARP, BRIAN STRAW, and JOSELYN WALSH.” It shows case number 1:25-cr-00693, filed on October 23, 2025, before Judge April M. Perry and Magistrate Judge Heather K. McShain. The document is marked “UNDER SEAL” and notes violations under Title 18, U.S. Code, Sections 111(a)(1), 372, and 2. The first section is labeled COUNT ONE and begins: “The SPECIAL JUNE 2024 GRAND JURY charges:” followed by four subpoints (a–d) describing an ICE officer (“Agent A”), the Broadview Service Staging Area in Illinois, and the defendants’ residences in the Northern District of Illinois. A red “FILED 10/23/2025” stamp appears at the top right, along with the signature of THOMAS G. BRUTON, Clerk, U.S. District Court.

A page from a U.S. District Court indictment titled “COUNT THREE” in case number 1:25-cr-00693, filed October 23, 2025, in the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. The document states that the Special June 2024 Grand Jury incorporates previous allegations and charges that on or about September 26, 2025, in Broadview, Illinois, defendant Katherine Marie Abughazaleh “forcibly impeded, intimidated, and interfered with an officer of the United States, namely Agent A,” while the officer was performing official duties. It concludes that this conduct violated Title 18, United States Code, Sections 111(a)(1) and 2.

Kat Abughazaleh (@katmabu.bsky.social) has just been indicted by the DOJ over participation in protests against ICE at its Broadview facility in Illinois. This is a brazen weaponization of the DOJ to target political opponents with bogus charges.

Kat is being federally charged by the FBI for protesting at Broadview.

This is a flagrant political prosecution by the Trump administration, which is trying to prevent free speech and free association.

I am proud of Kat. Her movement is being targeted by the government. She needs your support.

The Democrats never came to terms with the fact that a huge swath of the Clinton wing of the party, up to and including the Clintons themselves, is deeply, unapologetically racist. All of these guys should be considered dead weight for any party that actually wants to build a multi-ethnic coalition.

the IDF trains American police, this is as true as it is disgusting.

Good that Mamdani is aware and disgusted by it.

A Black Trans woman who’s the sole care-taker of her Autistic brother is asking for help with bills after losing her job. She’ll be able to bounce back but behind on water and electric bills. If we each give $1 she’ll reach her goal. We’ve helped 166 people so far let’s keep going.

I don’t know how much more we can take…
The war never really stopped.
The bombs are falling again, the hunger is back, and the borders are closed once more.
We are trapped — again.
I’m so tired. My body is weak. My heart hurts.

I’ve heard from one of my sisters in #Jamaica (St. Ann’s Bay). No water or electricity & they lost the solar panel off the roof, but they are safe. Still waiting to hear from my youngest sister in Gayle. Anyone have news from St. Mary’s parish? #EyeOnMelissa

reporters threw a party about the end of Twitter and defaulted to the guy who masturbated, and have since told the very users they believe don’t remember that ish

“Well you need to pay for journalism” …..

We should know that it’s not just the “newsworthiness” that makes them say

Internet shutdown in Tanzania as protests erupt over the suppression of opposition politicians challenging President Samia Suluhu.

ah, this guy was taken alive, unharmed, and there hasn't been an all-hands-on-deck freakout about What It Means. Guess the demographic!

Maybe the thing that gives me a pulse-pounding throbbing headache is when I think of how techbros sold ChatGPT to universities as ‘revolutionizing’ higher education and our institutions just forked over money without even asking for actual evidence

And they did this when they should have been spending money on air filtration.
