A lawyer says things have “gotten so bad” that the official thinks he can “turn his own block into his personal ICE checkpoint.”

Incoming thread on the #50-year mortgage from a housing policy wonk. I am a former mortgage originator, current housing planner, and current board member of a state housing finance agency.

We have now entered the "pedophilia isn't THAT bad" phase of Republican coping.

I have Trump-supporting family that I've put at a distance because people I know and love are going through this exact fear. And family or not, you 100% cannot be part of causing this kind of harm, especially when it's real and not abstract, and then somehow expect our relationship to stay the same.
Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.”

A 16yo American living in fear of the Trump regime’s ICE goons terrorizing brown people pleads for help.

With all the good news from yesterday, I was checking in on whether Democrats had gotten rid of the Maine Nazi tattoo guy in the primary, but it turns out that's not until June of next year.

Me and my dogs, waiting for trick or treaters. I give out the good stuff, but it's raining. So I may cut things short to go out and watch the World Series.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

From my FB feed; easier to share a screen grab of my disgust towards JD Vance than to write a long thread.

MTV goes in December.

As it fades, so does the cultural influence of Gen X.

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style.

Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

Mamdani did this without tacking to the center by accepting republican framing and throwing marginalized people under the bus or even apologizing for being socialist; something that party operatives who actually want to win might learn from.
Across the city, more than 164,000 New Yorkers flocked to the polls this weekend for the first two days of early voting, according to the Board of Election, a staggering turnout that nearly matches the entire early voting count in 2021.

Turnout was massive across all five boroughs, with voters telling THE CITY that they were motivated to vote for — and against — the Democratic nominee.

The demolition of the East Wing has shown a recurring trait of engaging with the Trump movement/party. Namely that there is no truth or at least that truth does not matter. Here's how my interactions with others on social media have gone:
