This is happening a lot to female journalists. So here is a modest proposal for the White House press corps: Stand together. No one should ask another question until the President answers the question that was ignored.

Why is Tulsi Gabbard, the top intelligence officer in the USG, with the FBI on a raid related to conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. The congressional intelligence committee ought to ask about this.

NYT push alert: "A person was shot dead today during a struggle with federal agents in Minneapolis, according to officials."

NYT push alert: "A person was shot dead today during a struggle with federal agents in Minneapolis, according to officials."

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

I’ve decided to leave X/Twitter.

Thank you to @senatorpaulasimons.bsky.social for her leadership and for continuing to educate the public about the harms enabled by the platform.

You can still find me on Instagram @kimpateonthehill and on Bluesky @kpateonthehill.bsky.social

Feds pay $125K after Border Patrol agent pointed gun at Portland hotel worker The payout amount was finalized during a settlement conference Friday after a judge found the officer civilly liable for assault.

The federal government Friday agreed to pay $125,000 after a judge found a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent liable for civil assault for pointing a gun at a hotel maintenance man who came to the agent’s room to unclog a toilet.

if only there had been a movement and momentum several years ago to downsize police budgets, clear out the white supremacists and de-militarize local law enforcement

Screen cap of what appears to be 50 to 100 protesters in total making their way through some kind of interior doorway into one of the hotels in downtown where fascist troops are being stationed

It appears that protesters have made their way inside of one of the hotels in downtown Minneapolis, where fascist ground forces are being housed.

Minneapolis is going to make it fucking ungovernable for these fascist terrorists.

We will hold the line.

I always go to the same one, so I know where things are, and it's not bad if it is nearly empty...I have to pick my hours.

Reminds me of Ice-T pulling "Cop Killer" off the Body Count debut album & replacing it with a redo of "Freedom of Speech".

Look forward to Bari Weiss asking "has identity politics gone too far?" while studiously ignoring the most virulent identity politics driving American government

Dipshit is smashing out a car window with his gun, barrel first. Just rogue, cowboy stiff.

There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for β€œobstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

It's a censorship engine designed to promote ideas that Elon Musk likes and suppress ideas that Elon Musk does not like. I really don't get why this evident fact - that Musk openly admits! - is so hard for so many people to understand

Bulletin board of the sort shown in movies with people attempting to uncover intricate conspiracies, except this one contains just two photos, of Trump and Epstein, connected with a single piece of yarn.

In case there was any doubt about Trump’s role in a pedophile ring: the sitting President is pushing a primary challenge against a hardcore Republican because she wants the Epstein files released.

For no particular reason….posting former U.S. Attorney General John Mitchell’s mugshot before he went to Federal prison for committing numerous crimes on behalf and or/at the direction of President Nixon including obstruction of justice and conspiracy.

Note: The pastor being thrown to the ground and arrested here while protesting outside an ICE facility here β€” who police single out β€” appears to be Rev. Michael Woolf, a Baptist pastor (he’s ordained by both American Baptist Churches USA and Alliance of Baptists).

The white guys, of course, are still screaming WOKE and the rest of the country [minus some white women] is like... "please get help and leave us alone."

I'm sorry, but being cancelled for getting close to neo-Nazis isn't woke, it's just a sign of how unwoke we've all become that the Overton Window has shifted so far that it can go this far before anyone faces consequences for bigotry.

Don’t forget, he also argued for the economic logic of dumping toxic waste in developing countries for a few reasons, including that the cost of health impairing pollution is less where people’s earning potential is lower. Afterwards, he said it was satire. Sure thing Larry. Read his memo here:

Michelle Obama: "In 2010, Oprah sent me a box of Ralph Lauren's first-edition – three suits, seven sweaters – an Oprah-sized gift. Barack told me, 'You can't keep that.' He's like, 'I'm in office. We don't accept gifts!" She added with a smile: "Imagine that?" πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ

"Elon Musk misses deadline" is literally the opposite of news, hope this helps

The only person whose standard of living has improved during this Trump term is Ghislaine Maxwell.

Kash Patel, the FBI's agent of chaos The biggest little scandal in Washington right now is how bad Patel is at being FBI director.

Seems suboptimal: In key FBI field offices like NY & SF, "statistics show that as much as 40 percent of all agents are now working immigrationβ€”an issue not normally on the FBI’s radar at all. Chasing terrorists and spies are normally the FBI’s highest priority" www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
