Nobody admits to their most expensive mistakes.

Alex Pretti's father: Our son was shot and killed by the government, federal immigration agents, on January 24th, 2026. His hands were in the air, and his face was on the ground when he was executed by ICE agents. No one from the federal government called us on that day. No one has called us since.

Alex Pretti's father: We wish Alex was alive. This administration has taken that away from us. What we've been treated to is cruelty. By Dan Rosen in the US Attorney's office, from the Attorney General Todd Blanche, who has ignored our letter begging for information. They've shielded Alex's killers.

When I say I love Cheesecake Factory, I mean this cat who was found malnourished and wandering through a Bay Area mall parking lot. Cheesecake Factory has since been rescued and nursed back to health. He's now healthy, vaxxed, & sweet, but still needs a loving home www.petfinder.com/cat/cheeseca...

When you have job security.

"Your pain is a myth" is a SOLID message a week before the midterms.

I want all trans people to know that Erika Hilton is a black transwoman and the most-voted congresswoman in the history of Brazil, with 1.5 millions votes. She campaigned for Lula over the last three weeks. WE TRANS PEOPLE CAN EXIST IN POLITICS. It’s not a dream. It’s already a reality in Brazil!

Man, I hate leaf blowers.

Disavow the jet.

trying to think of a use of preemptive pardons that don't indicate deep failure of a political system. coming up short

all of this has always been about getting back at the uppity women who wouldn’t fuck them

NEW YORK (AP) — Tom Skerritt, a durable character actor with roles in 'Picket Fences,' 'Alien' and 'Top Gun,' dies.

You know what, I will. This is what I have been pushing Dems to do both in my reporting and behind the scenes. Go on offense. The saturation of the airwaves with anti-trans ads is a weakness. Don't throw trans people under the bus. Capitalize on Republicans throwing themselves under.

The more i think about it the more bewildering and enraging it is that one guy- the richest guy in the world- was given the power to determine our foreign & domestic policies

I hope this sinks Starlink. One business person cannot hold the fate of a country in his hands.

The courts upheld our First Amendment right to speak at Memphis City Council tonight! There is still time to come out and join us at City Hall this afternoon. We need people power here tonight to show that Memphis needs a data center pause NOW. Let’s do this 🙏🏾🙏🏾

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...

Unfair tactic.

Man, if only if he had launched his political career in 2015 by calling Mexicans rapists and drug dealers we might have known in advance that Donald Trump was the most openly racist politician since the heyday of the Ku Klux Klan, a terrorist group his father notoriously ran with

Escarole is usually my favorite soup green bc it never really gets mushy. Never really went for a raw escarole salad, but this is going to sit in an olive oil anchovy Dijon garlic red wine vinegar dressing for a bit to soften. I know already I'm going to love this.

Took ballot to the town hall drop box, and early on-site voting looked like it was cooking. That's good news, but we need numbers. Full tilt boogie, everyone!

Cat belly to my left, cat belly to my right.

Putin wants Trump and Xi to help him carve up Ukraine.

This week showed us the power of tech oligarchs.

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...

Good. Defying Trump, Zelensky Says Ukraine Will Resume Russian Refinery Strikes www.nytimes.com/2026/10/15/w...

Our new weather person is temu Justin Timberlake.

Authoritarian regime grabs electronic communication devices of prominent opposition member. Since it’s highly unlikely there is anything on her phone about immigration paperwork from 30 years ago we can assume this just became a fishing expedition.

I have never seen coverage of a live trial, one involving allegations of multiple sex attacks on multiple women, framed in a more distasteful way. It's not 'Fame under fire' it's a rape trial. And it involves actual women. And this from the *checks notes* BBC

Elon Musk is saying "Tump made me do it." On this as a thousand other things, his claims are simply not credible.

Look, Zelensky signalling that the US has cut off all warning of Russian missile attacks on Ukraine.

Let's go, Sam Forstag! That's how you stand up for trans people on the national stage. If congressional candidates in western Montana—one of the most competitive House races in the entire country—can stand up for trans folks in every aspect of our lives, democrats everywhere should take note.

Bummer. Fun to think about, though.

This week's voter registration deadlines. Check your registration and pass it on!

Chris Murphy: "Donald Trump was so fundamentally unprepared for this war that within days of the war starting, our billion dollar air bases and naval bases in the region were obliterated by the Iranians. Every single American should be furious about that."
