I don't know that there is a definitive line to cross that makes you say, "I live in a police state now" but when masked gunmen can routinely brutalize the public, citizen or immigrant alike, with impunity, you have reached that point.

Kavanaugh stops in action: ICE tackled a non-verbal kid near his school, left him with injuries requiring surgery, and then left the scene when they realized he wasn't the person they were looking for www.independent.com/2026/10/23/i...

Elon Musk boosted the lie that James Talarico stayed at a mental hospital. Meta suspended No Kings’ Instagram account during nationwide actions. Staff at the Ellison-owned CBS News were reportedly told to tie Abdul El-Sayed to the Muslim Brotherhood and 9/11. Democracy dies in billionaire hands.

this is an insane way to frame this attempted murder. i hope that chud rots

It's a choice (a bad one) to tell readers this driver "passed too close to cyclists" when there's video evidence showing he drove his car into them, made contact and hurt someone. Fellow journalists: we can explore the nuances of punishment for drivers without obfuscating their dangerous behavior.

The New York Times editors' note on the Wedgewood Polls fiasco mentions FiftyPlusOne and links back to our investigation. We are happy our reporting on this bad actor is being recognized, and I applaud the reporting team, including Mary Radcliffe Cooper Burton, on their hard work!!

that's real weird because there were Maine Indivisible groups in your office every single day during the Kavanaugh confirmation repeatedly telling you he was going to do exactly that

Susan Collins on Kavanaugh: "I'm very disappointed in his his vote to overturn Roe v. Wade. There was no way for me to anticipate that."

This is a great campaign video. It’s good storytelling because it captures a feeling and that communicates far better than a list of hard proposals. It also lands firmly on the one thing people everywhere are searching for in this dark time.

Texas was built by hope. By people who had no business believing — but believed anyway. To every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone in power is paying attention: We are taking our state back. Because a little bit of hope is a dangerous thing.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

this is just the orchestra getting warmed up. Meta (and other companies) know there is no meaningful accountability for these kinds of fuck ups in a country that's too corrupt to have functional regulators or pass a modern privacy law

JD - I've got 15 free minutes before my son's hockey practice ends, so let me see how many of Trump's enrichment schemes you didn't see that I can remind you of. 1/ First one is easy: Trump has executed over 30,000 stock trades, many on inside information, netting him millions.

Alito’s dissent in Barbara is one of the ignorant things I’ve ever read. He made Thomas look informed by comparison. (He was also awful.)

Adam Serwer@adamserwer.bsky.social

I’m glad alito put in writing that originalism has nothing to do with rigorous historical research and is in fact just him talking to his imaginary friends bsky.app/profile/audr...

Did you know that in the first full fiscal year of the second Trump administration, the U.S. accepted five (5) legitimate refugees who are not white South Africans, down from 100,060 in the last full fiscal year of the Biden administration? No, you wouldn't know if you only read this article

Pretty remarkable for a survey of the state of the modern GOP to omit any mention of racism or authoritarianism. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/19/o...

We thought Mueller would expose him but Barr stepped in, or Jack Smith would indict him but Cannon stepped in, or Congress would impeach and convict him but McConnell stepped in, or the judiciary would stop him but SCOTUS stepped in. It’s up to us, we must step in & stop him!

Elon Musk has spent at least $366 million since July to boost Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterms. That’s just 0.0385% of his total net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

The Onion hasn't published a ‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens story yet this calendar year. I think they've given up. This country's leaders have failed two generations.

Nobody on the MAGA side can say that their lives are significantly better since Traitor Trump took office a second time. Racism, bigotry, sexism, and homophobia won't pay your bills. Donald Dickless doesn't give a fuck if you and your family live or die.

Republicans aren't gynecologist, they're weak white privileged man-babies who have never evolved. They need to control women and minorities because they CAN'T COMPETE WITH WOMEN AND MINORITIES. THE WHITE PRIVILEGED DINOSAUR IS OBSOLETE.

Must-read 🧵. The Dept of Ed aims to dismantle public schooling entirely; state-level voucher programs are key to the plan. As my forthcoming book shows, the “school choice” models described below put religious liberty and consumer choice claims to segregationist ends, enshittifying ed for all.

Three little kids and a teacher were shot and killed at their school today in Bend, Oregon. Two more were injured. Our hearts are broken and we’re angry. It’s disgraceful that extremists keep blocking critical, lifesaving laws while kids die in their classrooms. America can do better. It must.
