The layoffs at WGN are devastating. The consolidation of journalists under mega-corporations is going to destroy our democracy.

Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. WTF? If a writer tried to include a title like that in a work of fiction, any good editor would strike it as absurd.

Iran is the victim of Trump's grifting: Saudis give $2B to Kushner company. Quatar gives Trump $400m plane. UAE greases crypto deal, pushing $2B to Trump crime family. Trump pays debt via war with Iran. Netanyahu helps because he'll do what it takes to stay in a state of war & avoid prosecution

The Trump administration’s favorite nuclear startup has ties to Russia and Epstein Also, Christian nationalism.

We are screwed, since all Trump cares about is grifting & bowing to his Russian owners. These idiots might just kill us all

But his supporters are brainwashed enough to believe whatever nonsense he spews.

Maybe something good will come of this & Michigan voters will have had enough of the GOP bullshit.

I really appreciate your time, expertise, effort -- and snarkiness. You fuel my enthusiasm to continue to resist this unconstitutional bullshit

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

And anyone who supports him is engaging in systemic racism

Trump told a female reporter to smile. Why women aren't happy about it Women, who have had to grin and bear it at work, are sounding off after President Trump chided CNN’s Kaitlan Collins for “not smiling.”

The problem with articles like this is they allowed Trump to deflect and not answer the question about the Epstein files and his part in the rape of children. Maybe Collins would have smiled if he answered the damn question.

Plummeting popularity sets Trump on a war against the truth YouTube video by MS NOW

Bezos gutting WaPo is part of Trump & the oligarchs' control game, destroying the 4th Estate.

And that's what they paid for youtu.be/OMZSGDUUBGw?...

Noem's coarse tweet comes back to bite her in blistering ruling on protections for Haitians YouTube video by MS NOW

Still frustrated overall with the slow pace of the courts, but this blistering takedown of Cruella de Noem by a federal judge gives me hope. This judge was eating the dog killer. And 350,000+ Haitians legally in the U.S. get a reprieve from the ICE goons . youtu.be/Mirkl9YRsU0?...

Trump's deployment of National Guard members to Chicago cost taxpayers $21 million, congressional report says A Congressional Budget Office report released on Wednesday estimates the domestic deployments costs at nearly $496 million nationwide —including $21 million in Illinois.

$496 million of OUR tax dollars wasted on National Guard to cities under attack. $21 million in Chicago alone & they had to remain on military bases while the courts decided sending them was unconstitutional. Completely stupid. www.wbez.org/immigration/...

This isn't just near Independence Hall. It's where Washington stayed while president, kept slaves, posted bounty ads for runaways, and rotated them back and forth to VA to evade PA's manumission law. This is what it's known for, this specific location's primary historical significance is slavery.

ICE detains four children from Minnesota school district, school officials say U.S. immigration authorities detained at least four children including a 5-year-old from a Minneapolis-area school district this month, school district officials said on Thursday.

Cruelty is the point.
Hang in there, Minnesota. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

I thought the pedo in the Oval Office meant "Board of Piece."

Release the Epstein files!

Banning ICE agents from ever being state or local cops is a good idea.

The FBI’s raid of journalist’s home was the product of decades of backsliding | Seth Stern and Chip Gibbons The trend of invading newsrooms, in violation of federal law, has now spread to the highest levels of the federal government

"The raid of Hannah Natanson is a shocking escalation, not a rupture. The United States has been backsliding to this point – at both the federal and local levels – for quite some time," write FPF's Seth Stern and @chipgibbons.bsky.social of @rightsdissent.bsky.social in The Guardian.

Judge Ellis predicted something like the murder of Renee Nicole Good by ICE would happen. ICE is a lawless band of thugs.

Pete Hegseth issues formal censure to Democratic senator Mark Kelly US defense secretary also started proceedings that could strip Kelly from retired military rank and cut pension

This is just backwards.

It’s sadly fitting that “slop” is 2025’s word of the year. In addition to AI slop’s proliferation, the term aptly describes many aspects of life under Trumpian rule.

I hope this is the tipping point. When GOP INDIANA state senators rebuff the shakedown, it shows the mob boss is weakened

Trump’s $100,000 fee on H-1B visas is backfiring—and shutting out foreign workers The decades-old program may need to be reformed, but experts say the exorbitant new fee won’t deter companies from abusing it.

Gee, the extortion plan was ill-conceived? Shocker!
