KARL: Did you know about the judge's order when you issued your order for the planes to continue?

To make common cause with this Administration is to support an affirmatively white supremacist vision of this country. Period.

Every corporation.
Every Republican.
Every influencer.
Every Governor.
Every evangelical leader.
Every voter. Yes. Every voter.
Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

I happily donate to Wikipedia, incredible resource in this day and age especially.
I take Wikipedia for granted. Reading this Jimmy Wales interview reminded me in our Fantasyland age what a remarkable and important creation it is. True pillar of civilization. Runs on only $200 million a year. Requires our support. So I’m finally donating. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/m...

Local Chicago journalists are doing an incredible job on the ICE/CBP reporting on lies that have come to light thanks to video evidence. The ABC 7 story posted above is one example. Here's another look at the recently released body cam videos by WBEZ- Chicago Sun Times: bsky.app/profile/chic...
A federal judge has released footage from nearly four dozen body cameras showing immigration agents’ ‘unprecedented’ use of force during their months-long deportation blitz in the Chicago area.
Bodycam video shows feds’ aggressive tactics in vivid detail: ‘Deploy f---ing gas’

I am once again asking United States Senators to take a trial ad class to learn cross examination and witness control techniques plz
One thing to note about Bove’s response re: whistleblower report is that he didn’t explicitly deny making the “fuck you” comment.

Would be interesting to see his response if a senator directly asks him if he denies saying that

Someone needs to say it. Trump 2028 isn’t happening.

We know the presidency ages you, and we’re witnessing his rapid decline. His approval is buried in the 30s, and his stamina is gone. He won’t be able to vigorously campaign.

He can pretend 2028 is inevitable, but everyone can see the truth.

It’s not unimaginable. This is the same peace deal the kremlin peddled to Trump in 2016 via Kilimnik. And don’t forget Jared’s multiple Middle East “peace deals” that never included Palestine. There’s been like three of those.
Himes: "This shows Steve Witkoff almost literally sitting side with the Russians on this ... it's unimaginable to consider the fact that you would propose a peace deal that the Ukrainians didn't even know about."

CNBC: My understanding is the White House said that China was gonna buy 12 million tons of soybeans from the US by January. That's approaching and they've only purchased 332,000. China has not confirmed that pledge.

Fox News couldn't stick to a story regarding grocery prices last week. Were grocery prices higher or lower? Is it a Democratic scam or hoax? Are tariffs increasing prices? Larry Kudlow's numbers don't line up with the USDA. Communist grocery stores are just around the corner.

Fox viewers must be confused about the network's opinion of Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Socialist mayor-elect of New York City. Fox has trashed him as a dangerous tyrant and now celebrates him after a friendly Oval Office meeting with Trump.

Great piece on Trump's 'Quiet, piggy' moment. This phrase could be the new shorthand way to explain how abusers silence their victims. Keep quiet or be punished cruelly.
