Remembering that I can mute dumb topics.

I realize people doubt she did anything, and idk anything about that, but would it be funny if she got the Nobel peace prize before he does? If I were on the committee I'd definitely devote some of my consideration to ticking him off.

Shameless

Ouch. LA County files response to DOJ in court. LA County ran a sample of the DOJ list of so-called noncitizens registered to vote. 42.9% of sampled voters were canceled 71.2% of sampled individuals have never voted 25.8% of sampled voters record a place of birth in U.S.A.

I'm not sure how much more blatant it can get that these guys are looting the federal government and then pointing over there and saying "look what THOSE BLACK PEOPLE ARE GETTING AWAY WITH!!!" bsky.app/profile/atru...

They are treating these cases like they busted El Chapo

Imagine early American jurists going down to the tavern to find out what the laws actually mean by what picking Josephimus Six-pint's brain.

What’s going on in the United Kingdom right now is unspeakable. And it’s Labour, the ostensibly left of center party that is doing it. Horrific.

Bumpy’s ear wiggle. A thing of greatness (and cuteness!), and it serves an important purpose: clearing his ear canal of any water. He’s graduated to a new pool, which he loves – and which gives him even more space for elaborate swimming routines. www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/bumpy

Students from North Carolina A&T can be seen marching back to their HBCU after voting on the first day of early voting in the state. The Guilford County Board of Elections voted to remove the school’s on-campus polling site. (video via Todd Simmons) greensboro.com/news/local/g...

I am in Cap Haitien interviewing people deported from the United States. I have been doing this kind of work for almost a decade and it literally does not get more dire than this. People have lost everything they built in the U.S. and are terrified and have no place to go or way to live.

“one of the most serious interstate aggressions in our Nation’s history,” 🧐

Do better, North Carolina. This is god-awful.

From my ICE Air FAQ:

Republicans want you to depend on your employer and big business, because Republicans depend on & serve the ultra wealthy owners. The President explicitly wants you to depend on him and his whim, and adulate him for it. "I alone can fix it." He's just fucking it up and building his ballroom.

We really need to fund transit.

When Trump launched “the largest deportation operation in the history of our country” without ICE facilities to accommodate it, inhumane overcrowding was inevitable. Judge Kaplan’s 9/24 ruling shows the results. Diagrams simulating a NYC holding cell in Aug 2025 look like slave ships. 1/5

The whole speech is good, but this part in particular is particularly relevant now. www.trumanlibrary.gov/library/publ...

Ahmed Soliman has been missing for a week.

Meet the first new cat species discovered in 100 years: Leopardus tilcayo

$5k to every adult could change lives but Donald Trump can't pay it. Trump's burning all our money to pay for his losing war, tax cuts for the ultra wealthy, contracts for his corrupt cronies, the masked immigration goons scooping up legal immigrants. That's why this yes-man Congress has to go.

I cannot stress enough how bad the situation is for the people ICE expelled to Equatorial Guinea right now. Grateful to Ahmed Soliman for talking with me despite the retaliation against him every time he goes on the record. prospect.org/2026/09/09/s...

Sigh. Taps sign. Again. You DO NOT want legislative term limits. They're bad. We know they're bad. We know this with as much certainty as it's possible to know anything in the social sciences. We have mountains of evidence from the 17 states that have tried it. No good comes from term limits.

I feel like he might change it again when he realizes he went for the smallest one. Anyway for the moment the mnemonic can be SHAME instead of HOMES.

Remember if you’ve ever heard a Republican claim they’re actually ok with immigration but just want all the immigrants to do it legally, they were lying

Perfect summation of the antiwoke worldview: trying to destroy democracy is bad, but not nearly as bad as sitting through an HR training

Trump renews effort to fire Fed's Cook - www.reuters.com/world/us/tru... Roberts left the door wide open for this of course. Now we may see how much procedure and what kind of a showing from the executive they actually demand.

I'm not sure I've ever seen "blue no matter who" unironically in the wild until today. What a terrible way to encourage people.

any story on anything this administration does should dedicate the third paragraph to reminding readers the President of the United States genuinely has no idea how anything works
