Here’s a story for every national news outlet:

In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property.

“Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken.”

In a joint hearing in the Jim Comey and Letitia James cases, Judge Cameron McGowan Currie gave no indication that she thinks Lindsey Halligan was lawfully appointed as interim U.S. attorney. But it wasn’t at all clear what Currie will do about it now. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/pam-b...

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

Epstein, like Musk, was obsessed with his own genes being spread far and wide. If you get the idea you, personally, are superior and therefore you can't be denied access to any woman or child, you see the overlap between eugenics, rape culture, and power.

It's driving me batty that nobody except Heather Cox Richardson, the Washington Monthly, and myself is covering Trump's race to sell off (for likely demolition) "the Sistine Chapel of the New Deal," w/ murals by Ben Shahn, Philip Guston, etc. I've furnish links below to help reporters get started.

Just learned about the “Beans is How” campaign, and I’m all about this vision. Unironically, this is a very smart idea, and one of the better-thought out Theories of Change I’ve seen. Who cares if Big Bean interests are involved, this is an essential change to make sdg2advocacyhub.org/beans-is-how/

“In one of the messages, Mr. Epstein flatly asserted that Mr. Trump “knew about the girls,” many of whom were later found by investigators to have been underage.”

If the oligarchs are going to be this active in politics, seems like fair game for politicians to actively target individual companies for policy sanction. Best way to get people like Musk and Karp out of our lives is to make it very expensive for them to do business here

Wow: Per Hamdi's legal team, his only charge was a visa overstay — after Trump revoked his visa.

Despite DHS tweeting that Hamdi supported terrorism, they never charged him with any criminality.

In other words: Trump revoked a journalist's visa, so agents could arrest him for overstaying his visa.
NEW: British journalist Sami Hamdi is being released from US detention.

Trump administration agents detained him two weeks ago at the San Francisco airport — hours after he addressed an event, where he urged US leaders to take an “America First” approach rather than “Israel First.”

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

Relatedly, if this happens, the Pope should show up in person and dare them to brutalize him, too.
They're going to end up arresting, injuring, or killing some completely non-violent Christian clergy at prayer at this rate and create some old-fashioned martyrs.
“Federal authorities told demonstrators Friday that there would be ‘no more prayer’ in front of or inside the Broadview ICE facility, in a move that mystified local leaders and raised legal questions.” blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/07/f...

There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.

I'm hard-pressed to think of a non-Jewish Democratic politician who has spoken to Jews with more respect and empathy than Mamdani. The fact that many Jewish establishment orgs are going after him while staying relatively mum on resurgent Nazism is a disaster, both for American Jews and in general.

nothing will get better in this world until people like dick cheney actually face justice rather than die quietly, comfortably, surrounded by the plunder of a lifetime of violent subjugation and terrorism against a group of people whose main mistake, it seems, was living in the way of a bunch of oil

like I think Yglesias and Klein are centrist class-blinded brunchlord types generally, but it can't be overstated how much of their thinking is shaped by right wing propaganda

either because they're genuinely not bright enough to see through it, or they support it

The point of a system is what it does. All of the engines and systems of oppression are working exactly as they’re designed to. @anildash.com wrote a piece about this last year.
