To see their lies and actions spelled out like this, over and over, is so gross and real.

More projection, too — DHS is the worst of the worst.
THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.

I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

Yes! I didn’t know @aclu.org did this kind of work and completely applaud!
We're back in court today defending Alabama birth centers from unnecessary regulations that threaten their existence.

Birth centers provide essential prenatal care to people with low incomes and people in rural areas. Our leaders must make it easier, not harder, to receive reproductive care.

It's really weird to see people like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, who once had sweet corporate gigs, have to turn up the creep knob to compete with a generation of personalities that started with an iPhone and a mental disorder.

Still kinda reeling that these were the talking points they gave her before turning on the cameras
Trump would never have been elected if so many Americans cared about sexual assault. His voters knew his history and elected him anyway. They listened to him say he grabbed women by the p*ssy.

November 7, 2025 at 3:24 PM
Excellent point!
It shouldn’t be forgotten that a big piece of Mamdani’s campaign was simply “cities are cool and lots of people enjoy living in them” which in and of itself dismantles alot of rightwing talking points

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

Ha! I did notice but didn’t know how to describe, this is perfect.
When you see Mamdani looking all normal doing normal person things—petting bodega cats, riding public transport—you realize just how bizarre and estranged our average candidate for public office is. Rich martians in flesh suits
