They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

Koh: This is not about justice. This is about power. This is about a Secretary of Defense so drunk off alpha male bullshit that he's willing to take lives to get off on that power.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Rep. Crockett’s Statement on the Supreme Court’s Ruling on Texas’s 2026 Map

CARTOON OF THE DAY

NEW: GRAND JURY REFUSES TO RE-INDICT LETITIA JAMES per @nicollewallace.bsky.social on Deadline White House. HAHAHAHA

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

Himes: "What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service ... any American who sees the video that I saw will see the US military attacking shipwrecked sailors."

When I have food that starts looking like this, I throw it out. I suggest the United States does the same.

Why are the richest people the biggest heartless dicks to the people in desperate circumstances? You will have to face your creator someday who clearly said “what you do to the least of these you do to me” I used to like Phil. Saudi sellout

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

Blue got his first real haircut.💙

The White House has launched a webpage to report "media bias" tips. It would be a pity if it were flooded with tips about every show on Fox News. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202...

The dripping contempt the right wing SCOTUS majority holds for district judges is truly a sight to behold every time. When they deign to give actual reasons for their shadow docket holdings, it’s “look at the absolute idiots who keep getting everything wrong!”

Wow! The Supreme Court basically just said, if you want to do racial gerrymandering, have at it. Let’s be clear, what Texas did was racial gerrymandering, plain and simple. SCOTUS just opened the floodgates.

I am taking the next few days off from writing to prepare for a Supreme Court argument. If you want to support Democracy Docket during my pause, here is there link. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released. “And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

3 Questions: 1) What are we doing? 2) How is this pro-life? 3) What are we doing? www.themirror.com/news/us-news...

VA must redistrict after the Supreme Court’s decision in the Texas case. The last excuse not to is gone.

This SCOTUS is an indelible stain on every state and federal judge who takes their oath to uphold the constitution seriously.

I honestly don’t know what’s more concerning. That the president of the United States keeps falling asleep in public or that everyone around him is too scared to wake him up.

Anyone defending execution as a reasonable punishment for drug smuggling is a Nazi. Pass it on.

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream. Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads. Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

BREAKING: Federal grand jury REFUSES TO INDICT New York Attorney General Letitia James again

He commits crimes against humanity to stop “drug traffickers” while pardoning a notorious drug trafficker. He attacks veterans while committing treason. Make it stop.

Newsom kills it with his trolling.

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years. Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting. Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.

The Secretary of Defense taking extrajudicial killing requests from podcast hosts

If you see John Roberts in person, be sure to tell him he’s a worse Chief Justice than Roger Taney (pronounced “tawny”). That’s a nerd burn that will hit him where it counts.

This is a million times worse than anything Hunter Biden was accused of doing in even the most fevered right-wing conspiracy dream

The U.S. Supreme Court: "ICE can racially profile people it arrests." Also, the U.S. Supreme Court: "Texas can disenfranchise voters based on race." Can we all agree that we currently have a white supremacist Supreme Court?

I just want some of these fucking people to face real consequences

FLORIDA — Woman in scrubs: “I’m a U.S. citizen! Why are you doing this to me??”

It's unbelievable how corrupt the Supreme Court is. It's insane that we are letting them get away with it. They are taking away all of our rights.

Yeah, a House member needs to send up that impeachment flag. This is illegal, immoral, dangerous behavior — that is also likely unconstitutional as well.

Koh: I think what we are seeing is what the founding fathers feared the most, which is the collapse of our checks and balances. The Supreme court is supposed to be a co-equal branch of government. It's basically a mouthpiece for Donald Trump at this point.

His feigned ignorance is disturbing. He definitely needs to be removed.

Well done! A Massachusetts church displayed an “ICE was here” sign in its Nativity scene.

41 minutes is a long time to sit in your air conditioned office watching men struggle to survive as you decide to kill them.

Koh: He appointed a junior staffer as the U.S. Attorney because he couldn't get anyone else to bring this forward. This is a sign of incompetence in this administration. We're seeing everywhere. Incompetence is leading to a 30x increase in measles year over year in this country…

1. Some good news at last. This week’s column is about the amazing thing a couple of us stumbled into three years ago, which we’ve now developed into a global research programme. It doesn’t change everything, of course, but it could help change quite a lot. + 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

rfk jr wants to kill your kids, it’s really that simple.

"ICE is arresting the worst of the worst." Everything this administration tells us is a lie.

Thinking this is wrong isn’t radical. Thinking it isn’t is.

there's a certain personality that's very debilitating in modern life. 100 years ago, if you wanted to buy something, you'd go to five local shops and decide. now with the internet, you need to spend 1,000 hours so you can own the best version in the world like you're some venetian patrician

“In 2017 there was not a single asylum seeker who arrived on a boat. Today we have 46,000 a year and do you know why? It was because of the botched Brexit deal pushed through by Boris Johnson and championed by Nigel Farage. Nigel Farage should be here apologising” Daisy Cooper

ABC News and MS NOW reports that a Virginia grand jury has refused to re-indict Letitia James on mortgage fraud charges

#GVerse Anti-ICE protesters SHUT DOWN Nola City Counsil Meeting, after demanding to speak about #FuckICE in New Orleans and city collaboration. City Counsil shut down the public comment and left!

REP. HIMES: “The video was enormously disturbing… the example given in the DOD manual is of shipwrecked sailors. You do not kill them.”

listen I don't have any illusions about the United States military, what it does, or how many times this has happened before but the fact that they sat there for 41 minutes, watched two scared, human beings desperately struggling to stay alive, and then murdered them has fucked me up so deeply

Peter will be joining me on air at 11.45.

OTD in 1994 Russia signed the Budapest memo, guaranteeing Ukraine's territorial integrity in exchange for their nukes, 44 Ukrainian Tu-22 heavy bombers and 1,068 Kh-55 cruise missiles. Which have been fired at Ukraine in this war.

omg

While Mike Johnson is running around trying to act like he’s not the most incompetent Speaker in US history, we’re pushing hard to extend the ACA tax credits for millions of Americans. We’re almost there, and you can help!

“I’m disgusted, because it wasn’t only myself— it was my elderly mother in her 90’s and my sister too. It makes no sense. Who bought him off?” A victim of David Gentile, a private equity CEO Trump pardoned after doing just 12 days for defrauding investors of $1.6 billion

Nobody involved in this should draw a free breath for the rest of their lives

This is Poncho. He's trying to fix some mistakes on his medical record. Actually does not require any more shots, must have been a typo. 12/10 (TT: veterinariabarranquitas)

I mean, this is an execution

This is the story tonight. Every Dem who was in that room should be telling us what they saw.

A """funny""" thing I've noticed is that if you see a buckwild and totally made up claim on Reddit and then search that claim on Google, trying to source it, the Gemini AI summary will be like "oh, yeah, that totally happened, and my source is that three hour old Reddit thread you were just reading"

Holy shit. Reuters reporting that new admin instructions on visas are if you worked at a platform in trust & safety or content moderation or on fact checking or online safety at an platform you *and your loved ones* are ineligible for H-1B visa. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

#GVerse #Veterans US Citizen detained by ICE: Clearly it didn't matter that I was a citizen, a veteran, or identified who I was. They ignored everything I said. They just broke my window and dragged me out. I let them know I was a veteran, I wasn't doing anything wrong, just trying to get to work.

If it takes 1000 FBI agents or just 1000 people to redact his name from the files, then the dumbass is in deep trouble, because 1000 more people know he is in the Epstein files an insane number of times. 😏 It will only take a few of them to leak it to the media. 👍👍 MAY THE LEAKING BEGIN NOW. 👍👍

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being. Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

The Citizens United decision has corrupted our government and is destroying our democracy. Here's a way to get rid of it. robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get...

My tribute to my dad, who passed away last month in the UK. He was a proud Indian immigrant *and* a proud British citizen. His life story is one long rebuttal to the nativists, bigots and xenophobes.

What sticks out to me is how absolutely unafraid of prosecution this psychopath is. Part of it is narcissistic personality disorder, but it's mostly the perceived weakness of Democrats. Should they retake power, no one expects Democrats to hold anyone accountable.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

HOMELESSNESS IS NOT A DRUG PROBLEM IT'S A HOUSING PROBLEM I'm so sick of y'all in my mentions with this talking point, just stop. PEOPLE CANNOT AFFORD RENT. Half of renters are paying over 30% of their income on rent, another quarter are paying over 50%!!! People need homes they can afford!

A grand jury has declined to re-indict Letitia James. 👏

warm and fuzzy

It’s all transparently bullshit and immune to rationality, but if struggling to stabilize half a burning boat to avoid drowning is “getting back in the fight,” what they’re really saying is there’s nothing the survivors could have done to avoid being killed. And that definitely isn’t the law.

a lovely obituary but this in particular really got me

People need to boycott this show and not just half ass. Shame everyone who plans on watching it. This isn't about Eurovision, it's about Israel getting away with committing genocide because THERE ARE NEVER ANY CONSEQUENCES. They should be untouchable by now. Everybody needs to walk the fucking walk.

Admiral Frank Bradley lied in his testimony today. The two survivors did not have a radio or any other means of communication. Remove him from duty and court martial him. Immediately.

I love my people so much

This gangster government steals everyone’s property and doesn’t care about the laws respecting the rights of creators. Everything they see belongs to them like the greedy leeches on this country that they are.

If the Supreme Court makes you mad keep in mind that within the last week Democratic senators have been voting for GOP judges to get on the federal bench

But the memes are somehow still worth it right gang

Dubai immigrant, Isabel Oakeshott, whines that Farage got nothing from his deal with the Tories last time, so why should he do that again. Christ. The whining victimhood of these spoiled brats. Squabbling over power, while the rest of us live with the mess they’ve made of our country and our lives.

842,000 Americans died from overdoses in the last 25 years, 500,000 from opioids. If we’re hunting narco-terrorists we can probably stop blowing up fishing boats and start blowing up boardrooms.

GOP Rep. Mike Turner: "This activity that's happening in the Caribbean where they are hitting these boats -- these individuals if they were captured and tried and convicted, they would be guilty of criminal activity for which they're not subject to capital punishment. These people are being killed."

Ritual humiliation is a MAGA fetish.
