I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

ICE ARREST CONFIRMED: ICE followed a vehicle leaving Elmwood jail in Milpitas and detained 2 people at Great Mall Pkwy & Thompson St, 10:45 PM. Our team was on site observing. Loved one detained? Call (408) 290-1144 for free emergency legal support, 24/7.

A 2025 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Omar Yaghi is the son of Palestinian refugees who grew up in Jordan. He just left the US to move to China after raising concerns about rising anti-immigrant sentiment, like the kind shown here. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/china-than...

Donald Trump's deployment of California's National Guard in Los Angeles was an unlawful and unconstitutional abuse of power. It was done over California’s objection — all in an effort to intimidate peaceful protestors advocating for immigrant rights.

I don't need it, probably wouldn't drive it, but I want it.

🧵 There's a very unfortunate tendency of some very loyal Democrats to misapply "Murc's Law." For those who don't know of it, Murc's Law is the concept that the mainstream media acts as if only Democrats have agency in politics, and that Republican can't choose to act more rightfully.

CBS identified Illinois based Three Z Printing as the holder of the permit associated with the fake transgender mailers. One of the owners, Matt Zerrusen, is based in Dallas. His Instagram shows pictures with Charlie Kirk and Donald Trump, and comments from local Republicans.

Justice to a reactionary is the right groups (my groups) being at the top and the wrong groups at the bottom. They reject the rule of law. In fact, they think that everything should be criminalized so that the right people can use it as a pretext to oppress the wrong people.

Just like everything else. It only matters when it affects them directly. I call it Toxic Selfishness and I'm pretty sure Jesus would agree.

Incredible if predictable betrayal of public trust: you have industry lobbyists become appointees, exploit unitary executive theory to undermine environmental laws and ride roughshod over staff.

This is a five-alarm warning to every job and industry that relies on our sandy beaches and beautiful bluffs for its livelihood. Soon, you too could see your environment for sale to Big Oil, Elon Musk, and any other high bidder that buys its way into the White House ballroom.

Much of What Democrats Must Do boils down to valuing the good faith opinions of millions of Americans who vote for them more than bad faith opinions in media. They’ll call truth and justice “weaponization.” They’ll say voters don’t want accountability. They’re wrong, and Dems don’t have to listen.

The Justice Department's last-second letters about noncitizen voting contain people with no history of voting whatsoever, and they're moving so fast they sloppily sent one county the wrong list of names.

"Right now, we’re living in Trump’s world, in Vance’s world, in Hegseth’s world. This is what a world without empathy looks like. It’s a world of constant othering, of constant rage, of a constant belief that life is a zero-sum game. But nothing flourishes in that world." — @snipy.bsky.social

Because they know they're criminals

“Our constituents have been loud and clear that they do not want the government spying on them, end of story.” And right on cue, "If we can't surveil you then we might just stop doing our job" from the Police Chief. 🙄 nevadacurrent.com/2026/10/23/o... #News #Tech #Privacy #Politics

The chief of staff at Trump’s DOJ threatens legal action to protect Kushner from Matthew Cole's damning new book. Kushner doesn't work for the government; he never got Senate approval. So this is illegal:

Huh. Last month, NYT ran an article about Hinson trying to create distance from Trump: A Republican ‘Minivan-Driving Mom’ Swerves Away From the Trump Brand www.nytimes.com/2026/09/18/u...

Remember the viral Darth Vader public comment over Flock? Well, San Diego is actually coming closer to cancelling their $2M Flock contract. This comes after a councilmember flipped his support of Flock, and in response, Anthony Ralphs, the man behind the Darth Vader suit, bought him flowers.

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

To-do list for SD Mayor Pete and DSD Uncle Frank (and the transition team): - at 1201 rip down the stupid fucking sign, regardless of whether Congress has officially changed the name (not looking good for the 27 NDAA lol) - at 1202 issue orders to rename all the confederate bases back*

Carte blanche for Trump

Whatever viral nonsense is going around right now is brutal. I’m snorting saline like coke at a Don Jr party today

I love this question for every candidate.

Switching from Flock to Axon isn't a solution. As EFF's @maassive.bsky.social told KOLO ABC7 Reno, "People don't want mass surveillance."

While your costs continue to rise, the President and everyone around him are getting rich — selling pardons, selling contracts, pilfering your taxpayer dollars. It is a veritable den of thieves. The GOP could not care less. But an accounting is coming.

Power, not panic. This evening’s ICE arrest at Hellyer Park in San José appears to have been targeted, not random. We are not seeing raids in Santa Clara County at this time. Loved one detained? Call us for free emergency legal support: (408) 290-1144, 24/7, any language.

National security decisions should be made in our national security interests, and not based on the personal whim of an unstable executive.

I take my right to vote so seriously because people DIED fighting for it. Black men gained voting rights in 1870, but Jim Crow laws, violence, and intimidation kept generations from the ballot box. It took until 1965 to pass the Voting Rights Act. #ElectionHeroesVoteEarly 🧵
