For those who haven't seen it, David Strathern's reading of John Brown's last speech is absolutely riveting:

New people on the site today, so it's time to share the fantasy football pack. These are folks who actually post consistent content.

Roll into a corporate coffee shop about 10 minutes after they open & I’m the only customer. I order a black coffee (it’s already brewed) and a cookie for my son. “Hold on, it’s going to be a minute. There’s only 4 of us working today.”

Those police officers should be there to make sure that ICE doesn't violate the protesters rights, and to make it clear they'll arrest any ICE agent that does. Why did you cave, @govpritzker.illinois.gov ?

I keep going back to MLK Jr's quote about the white moderate.

He was human and wasn't perfect, but my goodness did he nail the hell outta that one.

I feel as though not enough is being made of a president who wants to send troops into a state because he saw old clips of something on TV, thought it was happening IRL, and then said he was confused about it.

Really struggling with the idea of whether people actually “need” distractions right now.

Maybe the issue is that we’re too distracted.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

At this point, any Democrat who votes to keep this government open without extracting very serious concessions — RFK’s resignation, ICE rollback, Epstein Files release, etc — will absolutely face a primary challenger who will set fundraising records.
Republicans run the White House, Congress and Supreme Court on the principle that the only role Dems can play is bailing the GOP out from facing the consequences of their own actions.

They expect Dems to clean up after them and save them from voters’ blame, and sadly some Dems want to do just that.
Actual White House quote: “go fuck yourself.”

Its not being some pearl clutching prude to ask whether this is really how most Americans want their kids to see the seat of our government behave. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

I used to work with Raphi, the man who took this video. He posted it on Facebook and the reaction was universal horror, people asking why these men weren’t arrested, if they even worked for the government. Normies are disgusted by this shit. Remember that.
NEW: ICE agents violently arrested a man in a busy Hyattsville, MD intersection this week, at one point brandishing guns and pointing them at bystanders.

I spoke to multiple witnesses—including a local priest whose church is a sanctuary for undocumented people: www.thehandbasket.co/p/ice-agents...

If you are one of the almost 100 Dems who voted to honor the guy who said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake,

don’t bother asking Black people to vote for you, donate to you or canvass for you next year.

Don’t bother.

Please.

And don’t be shocked if you get a primary opponent.
