This is important and shocking news from NYT.
And it doesn’t mention the DRC third-country deportation program has already begun. ICE sent 15 immigrants from Latin American countries there five days ago.

ask yourself: what do these three counties have in common? the answer is decidedly not "there was mass voter fraud here."
but who will protect me, the American Warfighter, from those brief but harrowing moments of slight pinching sensation, an ordeal that mere everyday mortals could never endure?
Yup. If those are the rules they wanna play by, Dems can (and had better) play by 'em instead of standing off to the side while loudly clearing their throats and tapping the rulebook.
the elite aren’t powerful politicians or billionaires. common misconception. the elite is anyone i think is cooler than me, funnier than me, more artistic than me, or generally anyone i resent for daring to be happier than i am despite my immense wealth and political clout
It’s critical to note that this clip should be taken as evidence that Trump is (obviously) taking cuts of the funds being used to build his new white house ballroom, the arc, etc
a good 75% of the U.S. press operates either in blind fealty or timid normalization of him, yet he's such a narcissistic black hole it's just never enough
“We are glad the SAVE Act died in the Senate. We are grateful to every senator who stood firm against it. To every American who called, wrote and organized to make their voice heard, thank you – your voice matters." #BlackskyNews

One of the Sandy Hook families lives in hiding 1500 mi away from their baby’s grave due to people stalking them.
The graves of multiple children have been defaced.
One of the fathers had to submit DNA evidence to prove his son was a REAL HUMAN BEING after Alex Jones’ book said he never existed.
“Interesting! No, wait. The other thing, tedious.”
Right wing: when we express our views on campus, people frown at us or even talk back.
Left wing: when we express our views on campus, we get arrested and expelled.
Center: we really need to protect these right wing students
A whole new scam aimed at writers:
- get an email from a writers conference asking for you as a speaker
- google the conference: it's real
- say 'yeah, let's do it'
- the 'fee' is mentioned for the first time
- you check with friends listed for the event and find out the email reply address is fake
Absolutely.
"These people are stealing your tax money, robbing you of services you paid for to enrich themselves. I will stop that."
That's a pretty simple and effective message.
we’ve reached a point where democratic hopefuls think they can prove they have national appeal by publicly criticizing a wing of the party that exists only in the minds of on right-wing podcasters…
anyone who knew someone with pancreatic cancer knows how big of a deal this is
in the 1970s Hillary Clinton made a hundred grand trading cattle futures and 15 years later the news media made a decade-long scandal out of it
I am so beyond tired of journalists sanewashing this callous, bloodthirsty, arrogant, immoral ignoramus
Trump approves disaster aid for red states 89% of the time.
For blue states? 23%.
When your community is underwater or burning, whether you get federal help shouldn't depend on how your state voted.
This is the most partisan abuse of disaster relief funding in the 47-year history of FEMA.
Submitting fraudulent electoral certificates is a lot of things, but one thing it is not is a “viewpoint.”
Exactly one year ago today:
Mamdani: If the NYC apartment you keep solely for bi-yearly affairs with your mistress costs over 5 million dollars, you gotta pay more tax
NYPD officer who’s been on disability since 2006 because he stomped too hard on a lady during an arrest and fucked up his ankle: This is a travesty
I like to imagine that Zohran Mamdani, Socialist African-born Muslim, was literally willed into existence by the collective psychosis of the Tea Party GOP over Obama, like the ectoplasm under NYC in Ghostbusters II
oh come the f on
A photo of RFK Jr testifying to Congress on April 16. The text reads: RFK Jr. calmly breaks down to a Democrat representative why it's critical parents have vaccine choice when it comes to the Hep B vaccine. "We just believe that Americans should have that choice, and that the state should not make that choice for them." "The Hepatitis B vaccine was not safety tested." "It had a 4-day test with no placebo." "We don't know what the risk profile is, and parents are allowed to ask that question."
Would be cool if there were consequences for intentionally lying to Congress!
The state does not force anyone to immunize. Parents already refuse vaccines bc of misinfo like this.
The HepB vaccine is one of the most-tested & studied therapeutics of all time. It’s safer than most of your daily life
“Vote blue, but it actually matters who” is the lesson of the last four decades
A weak democrat is effectively just another republican as a matter of how the government truly functions
Murray: "We should be sending money to our schools, not buying more missiles that Trump can fire on schools in Iran. This budget would rob our families and burden our grandkids with mountains of new debt, and for what? So Trump has more bombs he can threaten to end civilizations with?"
Judge Stearns orders a bond hearing for a high school senior in Massachusetts whose parents served as translators for the US military in Afghanistan. He was detained last week, despite having valid parole status through Oct. 2026, and has no criminal record, Stearns indicates.
Imagine the reaction if one of the liberal justices launched a broadside against conservatism.
A remarkable tirade in this moment in particular, as this administration shreds the Constitution on a daily basis.
