🚨Judge Xinis finds that, incredibly, Mr. Abrego Garcia was never ordered deported in 2019. She notes that every since this saga began all the way back in March, the government has NEVER been able to produce any evidence that the immigration judge actually issued a removal order.

Discovered this week: Timothy Treadwell (Grizzly Man!) on Chuck Woolery dating show "Love Connection" in 1983. He's sporting a laughably bad English accent, insane haircut, and fake backstory about growing up in a British orphanage, but it's definitely THAT Timothy Treadwell!

Anyone knowledgeable able to tell me what this little guy is? Google reverse image search wants me to believe he's an West African Nomoli figurine but it seems absurd that I could pick up an ancient museum piece for $13 at the PGH Convention Center vintage mixer, so I assume it's AI fucking w/ me 😂

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Let’s be 100% clear:

If Dems cave right now instead of Reps nuking the filibuster, then Dems will be solely responsible for our healthcare costs skyrocketing, and handing Trump pure unlimited power.

Telling your opposition (who is trying to kill you) that you will always fold.

This is an absolutely insane administrative process. Within the space of a week, states were told by judges/White House
*no SNAP benefits
*half benefits
*full benefits
*pause provision of benefits.
Result is chaos, uncertainty, and uneven access to benefits depending on where people live.
NEW: The Trump admin told states it must immediately "undo" the work to provide full food stamp benefits, or face penalties. The feds sent this in a late-night memo, only adding to the chaos and confusion around SNAP. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/09/b...

It shouldn’t be forgotten that a big piece of Mamdani’s campaign was simply “cities are cool and lots of people enjoy living in them” which in and of itself dismantles alot of rightwing talking points

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

The NYC mayoral election is not an indictment on Trump, but the Democratic Party. Stale, bland, uninspired leadership isn’t what the people want. Zohran Mamdani is young and will make mistakes but proud of New Yorkers for at least being willing to try disruption.
