This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.

They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Do you suppose Trump is building a bunker beneath the "ballroom?"

If ever there was a time not to normalize Trump’s authoritarian fever dreams, this is it.

This should be impeachable. ‘War ravaged’ Portland? He’s insane - & insanely power hungry. The script is set - call an imaginary group a terror group and then send in the troops.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

Staggered by the new disclosures, the message is clear: fight hard or lose democracy. This Playbook tells Democrats to shut down the regime before it’s too late. https://americanmanifesto.news/fighting-fascism-the-battleplan-to-break-the-regime

No. Damn near all Democrats unequivocally condemned his killing and oppose who he was & what he espoused. That’s not “trashing” him. That’s disagreeing with him. Btw, all the voices on the right USING his killing to attack the left and push a war between good & evil is way more “disturbing & scary.”

On September 9, 2000, Iowa lost to Western Michigan 27-21, running Kirk Ferentz's record to 1-12. He hadn't yet won a Big Ten game. Walking back to my apartment across the Riverside Drive bridge, I told my roommate, "This guy isn't going to work out."
Kirk Ferentz is #1.

My experience with trans folk is limited. But, I admit I haven't seen one with a gun although I have seen several competing on Jeopardy.

As long as the incompetent and corrupt Duffy is running NASA, all NASA reporting is suspect.

Chuck and Hakeem have no killer instinct. Without it, they might as well resign.

Thanks to bluesky management for getting me back in business after this account was hacked. Good to read all of you again.
