"Please trust us now when we say that what is happening in the Chicago area is wrong *** It is not law enforcement; it is terror."
Letter from Chicago broadcast veterans: Federal immigration agents have traumatized us and eroded our rights
The fact that some federal immigration forces may be leaving soon is cold comfort given the damage they’ve done.

He has a lot of power. That's not changing. But the economy is bad. Worsening. People blame him for that, and blame him for snatching up ice cream men, grannies, kids. Both on moral grounds and for what it will do to the economy. As long as this is true, he's not unchecked, and he's in trouble.

I think there are a number of people employed at the New York Times -- certainly not all of them, but many! -- who simply do not grasp how badly the paper's credibility has been shaken over the past few years, along several different axes, and for multiple different reasons

Boy do I wish I could have a chat with all the naysayers when I posited that Epstein was a dirt factory for Putin. How many times have we asked "what does Putin have on Trump?" www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
Jeffrey Epstein claims he gave Russians insight into Trump
Newly released emails show the late convicted sex offender’s extensive network of foreign contacts, whom he corresponded with about Trump’s policy decisions.

Anyone else now wondering how, and why, Epstein died?
Ever wonder what happened to the missing prison film that would have recorded what happened at the time of his death?

THE SITUATION ROOM
Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?"

Based on the emails released today and what’s yet to come, I wouldn’t be surprised if Mike Johnson sends the House back on vacation until the end of time.

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

💸 JD Vance’s family blew $35 MILLION in vacation money
💸 Kash Patel used a $60 MILLION FBI jet for a date
💸 Trump spent $98 MILLION golfing — on nearly 1 out of every 4 days of his presidency
🧾 ALL on YOUR tax dollars.
But somehow… they think a single mom getting $6 a day for SNAP is the problem?

This sick f*cks will destroy our country if we let them
Flynn’s claim that we “know for certain” January 6 was orchestrated by public officials has no evidentiary basis. Declaring fiction as fact is the same disinformation tactic that corrodes national security and erodes trust in U.S. institutions—all to protect a myth.

This is pretty damn true, removing the ridged gender expectations on men would free them of so much grief and loneliness.
The far right exploits this, making men feel under pressure to perform as to radicalise them.

Popular discourse attributes falling college enrollments to the rising cost of four-year college.
That story is wrong in multiple ways, as @mattbarnum.bsky.social points out in his latest roundup of the evidence (citing a new working paper of ours):

Is college enrollment plummeting?
Reports of the death of the bachelor’s degree have been greatly exaggerated.
