🧵 This scene from Bridgeview was just captured on TikTok from multiple angles—

An Uber driver picked up a passenger & was immediately surrounded by ICE SRT agents. She says they almost rammed her off the road.

One of them approaches with a shield. They point weapons at her and grab her passenger.

He knows what's coming next year and he sure as shit is more afraid of AOC-types than anybody else.

Trump: AOC is talking about having rebellions, she's not the leader, who the hell wants to go into her door anyway, she never took a course on the environment. The only thing wrong with midterms is a President gets elected, and for some reason, you lose the midterms.

I still don't like It Chapter Two as much as the first movie, but it definitely has some parts I can appreciate a little more now. The two Bills, Hader and Skarsgard, are easily the best parts of the movie. The lighting for the final fight is still unforgivable though. I hope the show is good.

Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time.

All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner."

It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

Totally entitled to that opinion, but I personally don't agree. It took a long time for people to turn around on the prequels and that was before social media made things even more toxic. Plenty of meh from Disney, but nothing after ESB under Lucas came close to Clone Wars S7, Rogue One, and Andor.

Federal agents from ICE and HSI—some in military fatigues and masks—descended on Chinatown today in an aggressive and reckless raid on immigrant street vendors.

Once again, the Trump administration chooses authoritarian theatrics that create fear, not safety. It must stop.

Federal agents descend on Chinatown in apparent raid

The raid follows recent federal arrests at a Midtown migrant shelter, part of what officials call a broader push to “restore law and order” in New York City.

it's dizzying to me that stories like this -- a corrupt grift built on democracy-wrecking lies that culminated in a coup attempt -- barely breakthrough anymore. they're just daily background noise now.

COLLINS: The NYT is reporting your legal team is seeking $230 million from your own DOJ now in response to the investigations into you. Is that something you want?

TRUMP: It could be, yeah. I don't even talk to them about it. All I know is they would owe me a lot of money. They rigged the election.

So you can sweep The Last Jedi under the rug, the most interesting movie of the sequel trilogy, without a second thought and shoehorn in Palpatine returns, but you can't buy space magic bringing back the best character of the trilogy and attempt to rebuild some good will outside of Andor?

Trump: "I'm allowed as you know as president, like 50% of the presidents have used the Insurrection Act. Everybody agrees you're allowed to use that and there is no more court cases, there is no more anything. We're trying to do it in a nicer manner, but we can always use the Insurrection Act."

The largest mass protests by number of participants in US history happened yesterday and the only mention on the front page of the NYT is Jamelle Bouie's opinion column: no diner-diving for sentiments of the unheard masses, no coverage of the Trump video, no sense for what it says about the moment.

Ball x Pit is very fun so far. Feels like a good mix between Vampire Survivors and the village building of Loop Hero, but just a bit more active than both with the aiming. Still need to try it on the Steam Deck cause it seems like a perfect on the go game if you have a few minutes to kill.

I asked people in my district what Republicans doubling health care premiums would mean.

Here's what Trisha said: "We won’t have healthcare. We will have to roll the dice and out of pocket everything. Just hope we don’t have emergencies and can pay."

Normally I don’t like to hold these people to contradictory sentiments because people with no principles don’t care anyway.

But it does say something deep to me when I had to spend the last decade hearing about how Tamir Rice and Trayvon Martin… who were actual kids… should’ve known better.
