Repost every single ICE atrocity. Orange Shitler doesn’t want the truth to come out, ever. Also, every single person who comes in contact with ICE needs to talk to a lawyer and sue if possibe. Grind the entire system to a halt.

NEW: Almost immediately after Gov. Kehoe signed Trump’s gerrymander into law, Missouri voters filed a lawsuit to block it.

The plaintiffs say the Missouri GOP’s redraw is unconstitutional for splitting Kansas City and being enacted at Trump’s direct order.

Trump’s increasingly bizarre behavior can no longer be attributed to a calculated “strategy.”

Why isn’t the media reporting on Trump’s growing dementia?

Has anyone heard the term/saying/colloquialism ‘had the berries’ as meaning someone or something is dead or busted beyond repair? I hear it used by folks of my parents’ age during my childhood, especially by my father. I don’t recall anyone ever expressing confusion to him as to what it meant. Hmm?

We were very happy to give this scoop to @marisakabas.bsky.social's The Handbasket because it is important to support independent journalists who are doing the hard work at this time. Giving this story to Marisa also guarantees it will be in The Washington Post verbatim exactly 48 hours later.
EXCLUSIVE — The Onion has a full-page ad in today’s NYT featuring part of an editorial calling out congressional fecklessness towards Trump. They also sent a copy of their latest issue to every lawmaker.

This is beyond horrifying. The U.S. government admits it improprly deported an El Salvadoran man who fled gang violence there. It now says it can't secure his return to U.S., where he has a wife and children. What kind of country are we living in?

What’s on the chopping block due to Trump’s cuts to NIH?

Crucial cancer services for rural patients. Groundbreaking diabetes research. A treatment for children with severe intellectual disabilities.

Tell me how this is supposed to make America healthy again?
