I think manipulated photos used in the news should be marked as such but we need to first figure out where the lines are. Do we care about color correction? Does it matter if those are done by AI? Noise reduction? Where are the lines of “enhanced” “fake” “deep fake” etc.

I never again want to hear House Republicans disparage people they claim are too lazy to work
It's official: Speaker Johnson just cancelled all votes in the House next week.

The next scheduled voting day is 10/27; the last time the House was in session was 9/19.

The request follows a U.S. Court of Appeals decision that blocked the administration’s earlier attempt to activate the Guard in the state.
Trump asks Supreme Court to step in so he can deploy National Guard to Illinois
The federal appeals court in Chicago found this week that “the facts do not justify the president’s actions in Illinois” under the law and declared that "political opposition is not rebellion."

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...
Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

If the bill passes this week, it will give ICE enough money to become, by 2029, the nation's largest federal interior law enforcement agency with enough funding to become the nation's largest jailer.
With ICE poised to receive a massive infusion of cash courtesy the Republican spending bill, I figured it was worth documenting what they've been doing with the money they've currently got. Gift link: wapo.st/4lv53Wh
Opinion | This is what ICE is doing with the tax dollars you already provide it
Immigration and Customs Enforcement stands to see a sharp increase in its funding under the Republican budget bill.

The speaker of the Minnesota House, Melissa Hortman is assassinated with numerous other persons by a MAGA gunman whose screed says he wants the GOP to control the legislature. This barely causes a ripple in US media. Trump won't call the survivors to express condolences. Reps boycott her memorial.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all
