It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.
Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.
clearly for folks like this harpie, 'immigrant' is a proxy for non-white.
What an amazing person. Such a loss.
Also, the fact that Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg can get up in the morning is almost astonishing. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/30/u...
Vile. Embarrassing. There is no bottom to this guy's depravity
"Marley was dead.."
I swear Dicken's story was literally the first thing that popped into my head when I heard Dick Cheney passed. Someone needs to write the version of the Christmas Carol where "Cheney in Chains" comes to ruin the sleep of Trump and Steven Miller www.instagram.com/the_warburg....
god this guy is just such an incredible dick
It’s amazing how all the reporting is just memory-holing this part
Virgo here. I pass the torch of dominion to you. Be wise
You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.
Spot on.
I’m told ICE attacked us—despite us being off the street, courtesy of the state police—to create a spectacle because Kristi Noem was present today. Here’s some footage of her and her team on the roof of Broadview. Everything is content creation to these fascists.
WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.
I work live and work in drafty Chicago buildings. I have several BIG scarves like this. I've survived many a meeting with one draped from my neck over my lap to my knees. I think of them as meeting blankets
More pointedly, the pope said, "Someone who says, I'm against abortion, but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life. Someone who says, I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life."
What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.
and she's leaving the senate! Of course, she wouldn't want to sour her Fox news/ GOP/Stupid podcast media gigs
Chicago not playin! The Resistance! ✊🏼 This video had no sound. #iceout #chicago
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.
If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.
If you're under 28, the number is 100%.
Happy Labor Day.
yeah, I went to the beach today, swam in cool blue water and slept in public with my book over my face. Hellish
This is our job as human beings: to care for and protect vulnerable people around the world.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza is dire. Children are starving to death as aid remains extremely limited and vital resources like fuel, clean water, and health care dwindle down to nothing.
I don't think it is the pants....(BTW, did you know there is an old tumbler all about Gene kelly's butt?) www.tumblr.com/genekellysbutt
well, you have a good point
New — I wrote about the injustice unfolding before our eyes as rich reality stars are pardoned for their crimes while law-abiding immigrants are rounded up and caged by ICE, and the way communities are rising up to say fuck no.
It's almost as if the cruelty and bullying were the point www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...
Go, Pope, go!
okay, this is a little terrifying
right? omfg, so horrible
they are infuriating hypocritical pompous gasbags
Yup. That’s the one.
