Paka Baba (He/Him)

This is my cat, Carmy Car Crash. He has something to say.

We are sensing a pattern

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.

The Army announced last year that it had enough of a model of armored vehicle and that any more deliveries would be “excess.” But Congress found a way to keep funding alive for the vehicle, and executives at the company found a way to flood key members of Congress with donations. buff.ly/nbAEUVa

JUST IN: Governor Hochul Names Letitia James as Special Prosecutor in Cornell Case. Gift link. 👇 www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/n...

ICE BEHIND THE MASKS HAVE NAMES 2 masked agents threatened to arrest Robert Peck for legally observing them. He sued. “And now, because of a lawsuit, the (ICE) agents have names.” A Hylton 📌Nicholas Lapointe 📌Christopher Semler I hope more people take ICE to court when their rights are violated.

Most riveting thing I've seen all week

Ossoff: "What did they spend the most political capital trying to do over the last 18 months? Cover up the Epstein files. They worked harder to cover up the Epstein files than they ever did to lower grocery prices."

Christ, these people are monsters. Just monsters. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

The only thing they're persuading voters is they'll back down and fold to whatever fascist nonsense Republicans come up with, abandoning the real people affected by it to abuse, terror, deprivation, exclusion, and death.

Friend shared this video of a man unveiling the library he hid when he fled Damascus in 2011. It’s incredible

The worst human being to ever occupy the office. Just reprehensible scum.

Our society's unfathomable cruelty to homeless people is not just morally unjustifiable, but more expensive than housing people would be. Cruelty against the homeless is an unaffordable luxury. Abandoning homeless people to avoid offending the Protestant work ethic is an unaffordable luxury.

Didn’t you vote for the Laken Riley Act??? You are responsible for these acts of violence. Admit it and take responsibility; tell us what you will fight FOR. Sick of Dems doing horrible shit then pretending to be shocked at the consequences.

Few things make New York feel more like New York than the sounds, traditions and joy of our Caribbean community.

Medicare for All is the guarantee of healthcare from cradle to grave—without premiums, copays, or deductibles. That’s it. Pass it.

We should not trust the informational products provided by a corporation like Google after they knowingly and intentionally provided false information to consumers — incorrectly renaming important global travel destinations at the whim of one man — via their Map app. Abuse of such power is no joke.

🇫🇷 FRANCE: “A photograph of Palestinian footballers playing on a makeshift pitch surrounded by the ruins of Gaza has been removed from a major sports photography exhibition in France following complaints from pro-Israel campaigners.” greatreporter.com/2026/08/25/e...

Google--which donated $1 million to Trump's inaugural committee--just renamed Lake Ontario to Lake America. This is the oligarchy in action. Whatever Trump wants they deliver so that they can make more $ and/or Trump leaves them alone. www.mediaite.com/media/news/g...

These oligarchs need to be shown that taxation is the compromise position. An example should be made.

Just when you think you couldn’t love David Byrne more he goes to the Hollywood Bowl playing "Life During Wartime" projecting ICE raids 🔥

Hakeem Jeffries is not up for the job. They have got to get rid of him in January.

Hakeem Jeffries cannot become speaker in 2027. It would be a colossal waste of power and opportunity for Dems to elevate him again. They need to choose someone stronger and preferably isn’t to the right of the vast majority of American voters on healthcare.

We could eliminate $7 billion in medical debt with the $70 million they spent to beat me in the primary. Those same corporations and special interests are trying to buy the seat for Mike Rogers now. In November we teach them once and for all: Michigan is not for sale.

41 years ago, Carl Sagan gave a clear and elegant explanation of the science behind global warming.

El-Sayed: "Imagine if instead of paying that to your health insurance company, whose CEO makes $20m a year, you paid a little bit more in taxes for healthcare you wouldn't lose. I think all of us would a lot more interested in that system if we knew our healthcare would be free at point of care"

El-Sayed: "To me Medicare for All is not about what it takes away, it's about what it offers: Guaranteed health insurance from cradle to grave."

Salem Brought a Guillotine To Oppose New Data Center. Company Reps Left, Feeling "Unsafe". Salem rich trials. 🔥🔥🔥

Home-based providers are the backbone of our child care system. Universal child care would not be possible without them. They should not have to shoulder emergencies on their own.

Outrageous. Rand Paul should be removed as head of that committee. He has abused his position for a personal grievance.

A data center was just shut down in Wisconsin after the town council refused to have private talks with the developer and told them everything would include public approval That’s how it’s done, folks

⚡️ UPDATE — AIPAC backs Brent Taylor in TN-9 @justinjpearson.bsky.social : “A majority of all voters (Republican/Independent/Dems) oppose sending more money to Israel to fund their genocide while our hospitals get shut down and our schools lose funding.”

There he is! There's our guy!

🔥 “I’m so sick and tired of you old people not giving a shit about what we’re telling you. We don’t have a future. We’re telling you what we need and you don’t give a damn.”

Gov Gretchen Whitmer endorsing Rep. Haley Stevens in Michigan Senate race over Abdul El-Sayed is simply about ideology. Whitmer like Stevens opposes Medicare for All. El Sayed wants fundamental changes incl Medicare for All. It's a clear choice for Dem voters in Michigan between status quo vs change

Fox News insists racism doesn't exist, unless a Black actor plays a white character

Rahm Emanuel’s example of a good Democratic candidate “touting substantive ways to help families cover the mortgage” is Abigail Spanberger, who vetoed a public sector bargaining bill that would have done just that for half a million Virginians. Rahm Emanuel is an idiot. www.wsj.com/opinion/the-...

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

NEW: A second ex-wife of David Brouillette, the ICE agent who killed Joan Durán Guerrero in Maine, Lucinda Brouillette, issued a statement this morning. "If you were to ask me whether I believe David Brouillette is capable of this level of extreme violence, my answer is unequivocally yes." /

MAINE— Killer ICE Agent’s ex: “He wanted me to lie about his character. I won’t. He abused me and my daughter… I’ve waited years to speak my truth, and now a man is dead.” They are hiring the worst of the worst.

Ow do that fucking cockroach David Brouillette.

The beautiful game. The people’s game. Throughout this World Cup, we have been reminded of a simple truth: football belongs to everyone. So does the joy and community it creates. Yesterday, I joined New Yorkers on Rikers Island to watch England take on Argentina.

This shows one of the many reasons why Firefighters are streets ahead of Police. A firefighter will run into a burning building to save your pets; a cop will break into your house by mistake and shoot your dog when she barks.

It's a sign of how shockingly corrupt this country has become that a nominee for Attorney General is given a hearing by the Senate *the very same week* he has been referred by a judge for possible disbarment for unethical behavior. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Scarborough to Spineless Speaker Johnson: “I’m not gonna mock you, Mike, I’m just gonna call you a liar. Because that’s what you are. You know EXACTLY what happened in Maine.” #AbolishICE

Susan Collins voted to give ICE and CBP $70 billion. She owns the consequences of that vote.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

i will say lindsey graham being asked by a reporter how mitch mcconnell is doing, answering “i don’t know, i’m going to check right now” and then dying is hilarious
