In August, the Trump administration flew 12 Somali immigrants to an ICE facility at Guantanamo Bay. “Nobody tell us that we’re going to Guantanamo Bay,” Sakariye Abdi Mohamed told journalist Amanda Moore in a phone call from the detention facility. “Just like kidnapping.”

Bill Maher said “fuck you” and called us bitches for being upset he dined with Trump. Then Trump tore into Maher on Truth Social calling him a lying, losery coward. That’s funny to me.

Here's one... Omar Yaghi, a Nobel laureate and a Wolf Prize winner. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omar_M.... This is RFK's shameless bid to anoint himself Trump’s political successor. It's not going to happen.

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

The election results in Brazil and Serbia suggest the polling error at the moment understates the anti-authoritarian sentiment around the globe.

This isn't hyperbole or a joke. Parents actually called the cops and got the black boy and his family removed and the league claimed they were trespassing because he was "putting on a show" and wasn't playing "fair."

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

Gaslighting 101: The AG is literally calling us crazy for thinking Trump will use the levers of government power to overturn the results of an election, when he has a documented history of doing just that. That’s tyranny.

BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6-- BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy BASH: This is a president who has a history

Google was really trying to hide its water use figures, to the degree that it got the council to try to keep its water use figures secret. The community finally got the actual numbers and found out Google was using 29 percent of the water in the community. www.wired.com/story/what-t...

🧵 There's a very unfortunate tendency of some very loyal Democrats to misapply "Murc's Law." For those who don't know of it, Murc's Law is the concept that the mainstream media acts as if only Democrats have agency in politics, and that Republican can't choose to act more rightfully.

Funny how the Vatican made the calls, but the White House left the Pope out of the story. Give credit where credit is due!

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was driving his construction crew to work when an ICE officer shot and killed him in Houston. He wasn’t even the person ICE was looking for. Now Texas voters are leaving their “I Voted” stickers at his memorial. #BlueWaveIn10Days

A wild story: the CEO of a US energy company whose plans were discussed during the Witkoff-Kushner-Putin negotiations resigns. Why? He learned that his company's main investor is a sanctioned Russian company, not the UAE www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision. More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?

Amyodeezy reposted

Again: Why does Musk have operational control over any *military grade* version of anything. That’s not how DOD contracts work.

The State Department has asked some foreign service officials up for promotion who they voted for in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 presidential elections, raising concerns the agency is violating a federal law that bars politicized personnel decisions within the nonpartisan ranks.

🇺🇦💔 Zelensky: Bucha. This is genocide, recognized by everyone. They buried hundreds of people, tortured them. We found a grave where there were about five hundred people. When we deoccupied these towns around Kyiv, hatred for “Russians” appeared. It was at this moment.

Yet another move by Trump to muzzle the free press. The judicial system will not stop this: He just ignores court orders, and then waits out the years of appeals. Major news outlets could stand up together. They did it for about a day when CNN/Politico/MSNBC got banned, then back to doing nothing.

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

A reporter for the British outlet the Independent, Andrew Feinberg, received notice from the White House that he will be not allowed to serve as the designated representative of the out-of-town print pool for Trump’s trip to Iowa.

There is a bunch of new stuff in our Hegseth profile from last week (subscribe. Sorry!) but one thing I keep thinking about is that trump and Hegseth have just completely destroyed the vast pentagon budget with their failed wars and bullshit that a) the army national guard had to recently make…

Cornyn on Starlink being throttled in Ukraine: "I don't believe that Elon Musk would do this without at least the acquiescence of the White House. I think it's frankly shameful. I think we should be supporting the victim, not the aggressor."

The anti-free-speech head of the Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr, is threatening to punish news outlets that publish polls showing Trump's deep unpopularity. We are sliding into a dictatorship, and it would be helpful if major media would do their duty and warn the public.

In any other admin, this would probably be the most outrageous official statement ever made by a sitting FCC director: Strongly implying that the government forbids broadcast networks from reporting on the president's falling poll numbers. (Sorry to paste from twitter but that's where he posts.)

This is remarkably dangerous. Polls are one way we understand the integrity of election results. They are a tool of democracy. Here is a vengeful regime official implying that networks can be punished for polls they don't like.
