Gratified to see widely respected journalist Margaret Sullivan endorse my view that major media must depict Trump’s abuse of power as a “five-alarm fire” – because it is.
I am absolutely frothing at the mouth for a National Baristas Union, a National Retail Workers Union, and a National Caregivers Union. The modern working class is predominately service-oriented, with female-dominated workforces. But they’re not represented by the old guards of national unions.
Yeah TBH I think the left needs to crush John Samuelson's mob as a lesson for what happens to chud unions that defect.

TWU be like “Hochul is MAGA because she doesn’t support our MAGA union” in reality, they’re just mad at Hochul because she refused to expand the union’s expensive handouts and make-work jobs funded with taxpayer $$

I know it’s really distasteful and dispiriting and gross to think about, but you won’t understand Trumpist politics or the status of women if you don’t understand that a lot of people aren’t just in denial about the prevalence of rape; they are affirmatively pro-rape.

The House Judiciary Committee Democrats have released a report containing testimony from 11 women regarding allegations of sexual assault, including a new rape allegation, against President Trump in relation to Jeffrey Epstein that the lawmakers say has been deliberately covered up by the DOJ.

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...

I cringe posting about the media references to my own report. But my point is to stress how vulnerable this entire ethnic cleansing campaign really is: I'm just a random guy with a laptop in Chicago, who created a report that helps map and shine light on the violence and corruption.
Meanwhile, a guy with a laptop in Chicago is able to produce an interactive, visual report that cleans up ICE's messy data for public use...in between daycare pickups and taking my dog for a walk.

abdul is one of the best new talents when it comes to eating a frame frame: without ICE, who enforces immigration law? wrong: ICE is going rogue and must be reformed right: RWers scapegoat immigrants b/c they have nothing to offer, and they've built up ICE to act as an expression of that cruelty

The Patriots Caucus sends its regards to Mr. Ramaswamy.
My understanding is that team Vivek wanted to roll out The Ad later so as to fuck over team acton’s timeframe for fundraising and responding to it effectively. An underappreciated aspect here, iirc (deferring to @rooster.info ) is that that timeline was fucked up not because of libs. The leaker…

HOLY SHIT. In a sworn statement yesterday, an ICE agent told a federal judge that an ICE flight to Equatorial Guinea had been cancelled and so couldn't be used to bring Ahmed Soliman back to the United States. The plane just landed in Equatorial Guinea. prospect.org/2026/10/23/t...

Hey, it’s the official release day for Seeing Like a Supply Chain! And of course I’m swamped with grading and lesson-planning, but maybe I can say a little about the book and the process of researching it. yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300...

Elon denies he betrayed the Ukrainians in the midst of a Russian assault in order to help Putin. But WSJ has the evidence: he did. Can we allow a drug addict from South Africa to run US military assets in the middle of a war? How did this happen? www.wsj.com/world/ukrain...
