I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

I don't love dunking on folks but it's so fucking funny to me that Trump was convicted of 34 felonies 2 years ago, faced no punishment, and went on to win the presidency a second time and journalists are still like, "hmm, I have an inkling that maybe he believes he's above the law for some reason."

if politicians really gave a shit about protecting the youth, they would ban all of these gambling websites federally. But instead, the "protect the kids" policies are being used to enable getting 18 year olds addicted to gambling.

Today, billionaires yet again bribed, censored, and bullied their way to the top. As a result, a billionaire media company closely allied with the president will soon own one of its closest rivals, including some of the nation’s critical news outlets. Saudi Arabia will co-own those outlets, too.

I assume anyone who points out how small the trans population is doesn’t know any trans people & I guess that’s what it takes to care? Because if you know even ONE trans person, like a person in your life, how can you think about that person and conclude it’s okay if they get thrown under the bus?

AND ITS CALLED IN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES! Ed Markey, incumbent, beats the anti-trans Democrat Seth Moulton in the primary race for Massachusetts Senate. Congressman Moulton had made targeting trans people part of his repertoire in the immediate aftermath of the 2024 election. He goes down.

Almost a year after Trump’s domestic policy bill passed, at least 770,000 children are no longer receiving SNAP benefits. In Arizona, the number of children receiving SNAP has dropped by more than 200,000 since July 2025 — a 55% decline.

Trump doesn’t force people to do bad things. All he did was show people they could get away with being horrible if they really wanted to, and a lot of powerful people decided they didn’t need to pretend anymore. Especially those in influential positions who could push back but did not.

Again, the field of extremism studies will never advance unless we start openly talking and writing about violence inflicted by the state. Specifically how state violence is the direct result of the government’s official foreign and domestic policy being based on a racist conspiracy theory.

I spoke to Lindsey Graham for 20 minutes today. He sounds active, wandering the untrod path, and wearing the chains he forged in life. He says the eternity of lonely darkness ahead doesn’t trouble him, because his folly blazes clear and the grim reminder will walk beside him always. Still sharp!

you don’t have to say nice things about lindsey graham we are past that cultural moment, largely thanks to the man he knew was one of the worst people alive and deliberately enabled at every turn he was a bad person and did awful things and you can just be honest about it

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

Six months ago today they killed Renee Good and said she was trying to run over an ICE officer. As this story notes, too equivocally and far too far down, this turned out to be contradicted by video evidence.

there's (rightfully) been a lot of attention paid to la, chicago, minneapolis, and dc, but the the joint federal-local task force in memphis is uniquely horrifying in ways not seen in other cities. this is at least the fourth person shot during the task force's monthslong occupation.
