The American gestapo abducted an 85 year-old widow. Was she one of the worst of the worst? No, her step-son, a retired Alabama state trooper, got ICE to put her in a detention center to deport her because he wanted all of his father's inheritance. Sounds like the son is the worst of the worst.

Donald Trump was rather quick to pivot from "We have to invade Iran because they killed some protesters" to "We have to kill *all* Iranians because I say so."

"We have no money to help people here at home—we need all of it to kill people overseas" is what you hear when you elect a simpleminded sociopath to be your president.

I’m waiting for Dr. Mohan to finally rip Robby a new one for his hypocrisy on all that “leave the outside world at the door” gospel he’s been preaching to her. #ThePitt

Bruce Springsteen, again speaking out on the injustices in our country. @brucespringsteen.net www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWKS...

This is not even close to okay. We would be having a fit about other countries doing this to their own citizens and calling for a change in leadership. These people were just trying to get home.

This may be the coolest recorder performance ever!

I saw an online forum where vile and ignorant misogynists were laughing it up over how hilarious it was that Trump would speak this way. Like some hateful boor that should never be allowed to represent decent people.

The inciting incident that launched a thousand horror movies. And 10k lawsuits!

Go throw yourself another Gatsby party and let hungry people eat, old man.

Pluribus is off to a great start. I can’t wait for more people to watch it so we can talk! So thought provoking!

Why are we bailing out Argentina and keeping our own government closed?

Days without being an international embarassment:0. Reference: UN speech.

Do not take medical advice from a guy who can’t even pronounce acetominophen.

🧵Where did all the Alligator detainees go? Over 1200 have vanished from federal records. By late August about 800 no longer appeared in ICE's database, while another 450 were listed with no location, only the instruction "Call ICE for details." Lawyers and families don't know where they are.

If conservatives don’t defend free speech now, they’ll have no right to complain when a Democratic administration muzzles conservator commentators and right-wing dissent. If we lose the right to speak out, everyone loses, not just those you want to shut up.

Running the country like a mob capo might seem fun when he’s going after the people/groups you hate too. But it’s OUR economic, environmental future he’s selling out to corporate and billionare cronies, and when you want to complain about how it’s hurt you, you’re going to miss the 1st Amendment

Doxing and firing professors who don’t promulgate your political beliefs is wrong and dangerous. Doxing judges who don’t rule the way you want is wrong and dangerous. Intimidation based on political, philosophical, or religious differences is not acceptable and should never be normalized.

I’m sure it’s a complete coincidence that all the cities Trump wants to take over are those with Black Democratic mayors in Blue states. Even though there are other cities with more violent crime. We see what this is.

This is Pepper. She needs a home where her job is weighted blanket and not terrorizing every other cat in the house + making them ill. She's very territorial but extremely sweet with (adult) humans. Do you live within driving distance of Houston + need a solo lap cat? I will bring her to you!

Ashli Babbitt was a traitor. It’s sad she was led down that path by Trump, but she died a traitor, and if the USA is still here in another 250 years, she’ll still be a traitor. Honoring her treason dishonors every man and woman who ever wore the uniform and insults every single loyal American.

Fox News spent years screaming about Obama being a dictator for using executive orders yet says *nothing* about this?

This is barely even satire! lol!

Required by Congress, the reports no longer single out things like rigged elections or sexual violence against children as human rights violations.

What he’s saying about D.C.’s crime stats is a complete lie. How long will it be before he uses the same lies and his ICE army to take over other Democratic cities across America?

Editorial cartoonist Charles Beyl questions Trump administration values and its unusual preferential treatment of Epstein’s sex-offender accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

Unconscionable! These people risked their lives helping Americans, were legally invited to the U.S. for their safety and are now at risk for deportation because of racism alone!

Following Ghislaine Maxwell's secret meeting with Todd Blanche to suborn her testimony against Donald Trump, America's most notorious living pedophile was rewarded with a move to a cushy minimum security prison. It has lovely landscaping and features lots of fun activities. She now awaits a pardon.

It's telling that Donald Trump's takeaway from Jeffrey Epstein hiring Virginia Giuffre away from Mar-a-Lago is to feel sorry for Donald Trump because he lost an employee, not to feel sorry for Virginia Giuffre because she was trafficked and raped.

Visited our Hill Country cabin and spent some time on this tiny lake near the Frio River with my favorite captain!

"We are so frigging scared of how much the Epstein files could hurt Donald Trump that we are shutting down Congress!!!!" isn't the savviest maneuver to get people to stop thinking about the Epstein files, Republicans.

A new report by Human Rights Watch and partner nonprofits released today confirms that migrants at the downtown Miami ICE facility were indeed shackled with hands tied behind their backs, forced to kneel, and made to eat from styrofoam plates “like dogs.”

The Trump admin just exempted over 100 chemical plants, sterilizers & coal facilities from Clean Air Act rules, rolling back protections that would’ve cut cancer risk by up to 96% for nearby communities.

Smells like one, doesn’t it? Or so says the ghost of Richard Nixon.

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

Who hates PBS? And NPR has been a valuable resource to millions of Americans both urban and rural for decades. Who does cutting their funding serve, other than the forces that want the airwaves reserved for 100% R-approved propaganda feeding us state approved thoughts?
