"It is a disturbing and shameful abandonment not only of a would-be ally in need, but of the best and noblest traditions of American foreign policy dating back centuries."

no amnesty

Wonder if there's something to look into here with the NYU of it all. His gigantic son goes to that school, which doesn't make much sense, considering what NYU is and what he is. Why?

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

This is a must-read piece on coverage denials and the ways that AI can exacerbate health insurance barriers, from health-endangering prior auth to burdensome appeals. And if this piqued your interest, read my book Coverage Denied (www.amazon.com/Coverage-Den...). www.fastcompany.com/91623819/dea...

When blithering idiots are in charge:

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Story after story of disgraceful, dehumanizing cruelty and intentional neglect. We need accountability for every person and company who has driven this horrific attack on our immigrant friends and neighbors.

Emiliano Andrade-Covarrubias has died at a GEO-owned for-profit concentration camp in Texas. DHS denied him life saving medication, including for heart disease after he complained of chest tightness and trouble breathing. Emiliano was a father, husband, son who deserved dignity and due process.

I heard JD Vance defending Ramaswamy’s ad attacking Amy Acton and all I could think of is JD Vance defending the ICE agent who shot Renee Good in the face and called her a f*cking bitch. His misogyny knows no bounds. dot-connecting.ghost.io/jd-vance-and...

A strong woman standing up for another strong woman in the face of an amoral man is a wonderful sight.

Vance somehow manages to combine huge loser energy with biggest asshole you've ever met energy and I'm honestly not sure how he does it.

Armed officers are knocking on people’s doors ahead of the midterms. trib.al/5QVtuen

“Trump and Putin have teamed up to murder Ukrainians” is a better headline. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The only thing I’ll add to this fine statement is that vindictive prosecutions are now a feature, not a bug, of our constitutional system, thanks to Trump v. United States. Unless and until Congress adopts deep, structural measures, presidential harassment through the criminal system won’t go away.

This week a white nationalist tried to assassinate a member of Congress and you probably didn’t even hear about it—and a reminder that being an elementary school student in the US is more deadly than being an ICE officer: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/three-shoo...

TN-9: A reminder that @justinjpearson.bsky.social opponent Brent Taylor taunted anti-ICE protestors by literally sucking on an ice cube while attending a Core Civic fundraiser to start session Ugly stuff

Don't want to remind voters before the midterms of the massing killing of schoolchildren on the first day of Trump's glorious war... www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

@katierogersnyt.bsky.social: accusations of being gay used as a slur, a weapon to denigrate is homophobic. Full-stop. Just saying this is a political strategy for the moment doesn't cut it. What is does do is whitewash, gives permission to hate from the @nytimes.com. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/14/u...

WSJ is reporting that the Trump regime is investigating Rep. Ilhan Omar to build a case to strip her of US citizenship, forcibly remove her from office, & deport her. Please understand how dangerous and catastrophic this is. It’s already fascism that he’s trying to do this. 1/2

Zelensky speaking the truth. The US is now a Russian ally, and the Starlink decision is a massive benefit for the Russian military (and it has nothing to do with Ukraine attacking Russian refineries). The US is literally riding to Putin’s rescue.

Circumventing government sanctions is still a federal crime, even if no one is enforcing it at the moment. Maybe she can be her own defense attorney at her trial since she says she passed the Chinese bar exam. 😂

Elon Musk is one of the most dangerous people in the world. Twitter is a right wing propaganda tool. There are far too many folks out there pretending otherwise.

Putin, Trump and Musk all colluding to defeat Ukraine

This should set off a siren in every defence ministry in Europe: there needs to be much more urgency about developing autonomous capabilities, not subject to US caprices, for early warning of attacks, countering ballistic missiles, communicating with forces or controlling offensive weapons.

No one should have this kind of power. He needs to be neutered.

Ashley Moody should be in prison for her participation in the Hope Florida scandal. She stole $10 million from Florida children! We must elect @angieforfl.bsky.social, the candidate who has proven she stands against corrupt politicians. 🎥 Bulletproof Soul #AngieNixon #FloridaPolitics #corruption

I hope everyone recognizes how insane it is for one person to be able to spend $366M on one election. It would take the average US worker 5,200 _years_ to even earn that much.
