Genuine Question because I Do not understand… so if these men roll up in plain clothes and masks, grab a human being… even a child, and throw them in an unmarked vehicle I am just supposed to look the other way and say nothing ?? Ask Nothing ?

The airlines also sold our data to ICE. Jesus.

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

While ICE agents can note in their database if someone they’ve investigated turns out to be a citizen, they are not required to do so. As a result, records are often wrong and left uncorrected even after agents have been told of a mistake. (Published March 2025)

Why do we even have the confirmation hearings if they lie about what they will do or not do?

Thomas Fugate, who has no apparent management or anti-terrorism experience, replaced an Army veteran with more than two decades of national security experience who resigned in March when the administration began cutting his staff. By @hannahallam.bsky.social‬

Trump is deporting grad students and strawberry pickers and 4-year-olds with brain cancer, but importing white racists from South Africa and the families of Mexican cartel leaders. Do I have this right?

Strains bounds of propriety? Strains…bounds…of…proprietary? Am I having a stroke? What is happening?

More in No, Other People: New poll: “America would be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.” • 80% of Americans agree • 20% disagree “I would be better off if I worked in a factory.” • 25% of Americans agree • 73% disagree • 2% currently work in a factory

I was thinking that none of those numbers made sense, but holy fuck this is insane

A reminder to reporters: Because Trump tariff numbers are made-up nonsense, using the phrase “reciprocal tariffs” is lying to your audience. The phrase itself is propaganda. They are not reciprocal.

Marco Rubio just made the argument, bold faced, not a mistake an intentional statement, that at any time the US can revoke your visa and then you are instantly here illegally and they can arrest you, deport you, torture you, all without any due process. That means the United States is simply unsafe

Talk of firing or resigning is one thing. But if they were regular employees, they would face investigation & prosecution. No reason their principals, people who hold security clearances, shouldn’t. Or is the legacy of the “but her emails” guy going to be nat’l security no longer matters?

If you're quietly uncomfortable with all the brown women being deported, but vocally outraged about Jasmine Mooney, you have things to examine. She had the same visa the others had - which is none. Visa was denied and a prior temp visa revoked. She was trying to talk her way through with whiteness.

So on brand for these people. Never trust anyone who doesn’t love dogs.

Trump: "I invaded Los Angeles and we opened up the water and the water is now flowing down. They have so much water they don't know what to do ... we broke in to do it."

Dopey me, I actually thought someone might have told him about how angry California farmers were about this pointless and harmful stunt, and assumed he wouldn't mention it again.

The acting head of the government’s human resources arm, Charles Ezell, is refusing to testify in tomorrow’s case that challenges the legality of the recent mass firings of federal workers. His absence raises serious questions—what is there to hide?

“White House officials took the unusual step of ordering a stop to the background check investigations after they deemed the process too intrusive, sources said” It’s a fucking background check. It’s SUPPOSED to be invasive.

A scientist loses funding for her research on vaccines during pregnancy due to a new NIH policy that bans all studies broadly related to "vaccine uptake."

Would it kill you to do some actual reporting on his claims? It’s not even clear that one of these doctors exists.

Clearly there is still too much diversity and inclusion at SpaceX.

Isn't this some kind of leading indicator?

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

Oh FFS. Tomorrow might be a sick day, because this is driving me to drink.

Do I really have to endure this until Jed the farmer in Kansas finally cares that he's being sacrificed on a white Supremacist altar he helped construct? We have to wait for this venal charlatan's zombie mob gain consciousness and vote properly? Jesus. Are there jobs in Canada?

Protect your peace.

Baldwin: "Trump a little over a week ago said on Fox News, 'I'm not touching Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid.' And he said it multiple times. The next morning he endorsed the Republican House budget which calls for nearly a trillion dollars in cuts to Medicaid."

He is incompetent

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

This is sketchy as hell

Not believing cigarettes are bad for you sounds absurd, but it reveals how many people make decisions and form beliefs: it all comes down to trust. If you strongly distrust a certain group (such as the govt) then you are more likely to believe the opposite of what they endorse.

The Trump administration keeps reciting the statistic that only 6% of federal employees are working full time in their offices. That’s astoundingly low — and completely untrue. Here’s how an online survey was taken out of context to perpetuate a myth:

I’ve always been skeptical of folks who say Trump is a literal ‘Russian asset’ or that Moscow has ‘kompromat’ on him, and the Russia obsession hurt the Dems in term one… but… how does anyone explain this? Justify this? How? t.co/ie1nWaL8ot

The bloodbath at NOAA apparently included meteorologists with the National Weather Service; scientists inside what’s simply known as NOAA Research, or the office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) more formally; technicians that keep up the country’s weather instrumentation;

It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

Oh. My. God. Worse and worse!
