Myth debunked: You don't have to wait an hour after Government Shutdown to go swimming. But the pool is closed.

Jack collaborated with neo-Nazi twins to make a documentary. He was a fan of white supremacist Richard Spencer. He has tweeted 1488, the alphanumeric code for Heil Hitler. He wrote an unreadable anti-antifa book. Last year he wrote a book abt the left called “Unhumans.” That he’s now speaking here…

From Donald Trump's Roundtable on Antifa just now —
"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

This is getting wild.

The states of Iowa, Montana, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and 14 others have just asked for permission to file THEIR amicus brief in IL v. Trump.

The States of Iowa, Montana, Oklahoma, South Carolina and 14 additional States
respectfully move for leave to submit the attached amicus curiae brief in support of Defendants
and their opposition to Plaintiffs’ requested temporary restraining order and preliminary
injunction. Proposed amici are States with a vested interest in federalism, the relationship between
States and the federal government, and deploying the National Guard. We also each have a vital
interest in supporting the President and Congress in enacting and enforcing valid immigration
laws. Every State has a responsibility to protect our citizens.
The federalization of States’ National Guard units is a matter of profound public
importance, as it directly implicates the delicate balance of power between state and federal
governments—a true cornerstone of Federalism. States generally maintain authority over their
National Guard units, allowing governors to deploy them for state-specific needs, such as disaster
response or public safety. Federalization of state National Guard units without gubernatorial

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

Mr. Oswalt, could you please supply a rig exactly like this to the good antifascists of Chicago? (Must have cop motor — a 440-cubic-inch plant — cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. Should be a model made before the catalytic converter so it'll run good on regular gas.)

This is another Outrageous thing the trump-GOP regime have done to our fellow Americans!!!: Trump eliminates funding for tribes to transition to clean energy

www.npr.org/2025/10/07/n...

A tribe in Arizona planned to connect 600 homes to electricity. Then the funding was cut

The Hopi Tribe received a multimillion-dollar federal grant to install solar panels and battery storage systems for hundreds of homes. But the Trump administration has canceled the funding.

Parody modification of the "aborted GF" meme.

Heading: "ABORTED ANTIFA GF"

Drawing of a stick figure girl with a pink dress red anarchy "a" photoshopped onto it, with the imagined GF saying imaginary antifa girlfriend things:

Sorry I couldn't be there for your war in Portland. my mom had other plans

You look like you've been crying. Tear gas? :(
I could have rinsed your eyes with saline...

Hey! we both want to destroy America and kill God! we're like twins!

would have liked to indoctrinate all the kids with you...

I'll be praying for you — to Biden, Kamala, and SATAN

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

Noem: One of the individuals we arrested recently was the girlfriend of one of the founders of antifa and we’re hoping as we go after her and prosecute her, we'll get more and more information about the network and how we can root them out and eliminate them from the existence of American society

Have people been telling him, "Yes, Sir, you actually can just issue an executive order saying people must go to prison for a year for burning a flag, and that's now the law, Sir"?

Should be fun to be a federal prosecutor trying to enforce that one.

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

Ah, but don't you see? People who live in Portland can't be objective about what a war-ravaged heck hole it is. And they're lying by posting photos of the cafes and the marathon, but with all the shell craters photoshopped out. Classic commie / Democrat / coffee drinker move.

Galaxy-brained take from The Other Place: This is not people having fun. This is a coordinated psyop to hide the war!

Screenshot of two twitter posts. Top: video of four people dancing around in inflatable costumes (Reptar from Rugrats, a white raccoon, a brown bear, and a white unicorn with a rainbow mane). Caption: "Portland tonight"

Reply below that, from "DiscipleofThanatos," a dude with a Grim Reaper avi:

"Remember: Democrats and Communists can only lie.

Since Portland is so well-connected, the word went out and people were encouraged to stage parties to take the heat off the embarrassment that is their city."

Happily, frog guy says he wasn't harmed.

He said "I kinda coughed a little, that was about it. ... I've tasted spicier. I'm Mexican, what do you expect?"

then he did a little dance with friends, no doubt to give the impression that Portland is not a war-ravaged battle zone.
