We're on to baseball .. well after UConn March Madness.

1/ Ian Austin has since been re-arrested along with Don Lemon, which he believes is bc the video we made of him (below) criticizing the Trump regime and encouraging fellow vets to wake up had gotten millions of views.

It's not just journalists. It's ANYONE. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy

Seems like a good video for his trial

Spraying pepper spray directly into the eyes of a detained person who’s already fully subdued

I've done that tour. Very cool. We are taking a trip to S.D. in September.. can't wait. Love that city.

I’m the one in the brown hat.

What you might not see is the victim in the car. His feet are pointing out the open car door. An agent is sitting on one of his legs. He’s only wearing crocs.

Bystanders found his legal work visa in his abandoned car.

Minneapolis right now—

At 35th and Park, a crowd has gathered after a car crash involving the feds. Agents just launched tear gas and pepper balls at people.

ICE Wants to Go After Dissenters as well as Immigrants The Trump administration is being open about its plans to violate Americans’ First and Fourth Amendment rights.

Social media monitoring systems, cellphone location tracking, facial recognition, remote hacking tools — now being turned on Americans by ICE to target protesters. bit.ly/3Kq348R

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

Maybe it's just me, but this seems like strange behavior for the first annual FIFA peace prize recipient. 🤔🤷‍♂️

the President owning an online betting market where you can bet on what the President will do seems both deeply unethical, and stupid for bettors

Casino:
"Hey you can bet on when the buffet is out of prime rib! 10pm"
Chef: <checks bets> joe, pull the prime rib at 9pm
"dang, lost again"

Another brilliant idea by the Trump WH to put the ‘Rapid React’ campaign ‘own the libs’ juvenile delinquents in charge of DOJ comms. Very professional.

Is it just me.. or does this not look like a huuuuge floating Tesla??

surely the women's bathroom is a sacred space ive been told by conservatives

Trump is taking money out their housing allowances approved by Congress and giving it to them in a “bonus” so it looks like it came from him. It’s just a shell game with military pay from the ultimate con man

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.

Every single reporter there needs to hold the line on this too.

Don't throw him a lifeline with another question if he dodges. Have each other's backs and demand he answer the question.

This is even worse than I expected, and I was expecting the worst.

Wow I had a spinal fusion in 1969 and was in hospital for a month! Then in body cast for a year. Only two years later.. my friend's sister had same operation.. in hospital for 2 weeks with no body cast.

CNN’s @kaitlancollins.bsky.social : “If the economy is as strong as Trump says, why is he telling parents 2 weeks before Christmas they should only buy 2 or 3 dolls?” 😕🎄

LEAVITT: *insists the economy is great, lashes out at Collins, admits this is why he wants new leadership censoring CNN*

when I wrote this panel last week, I didn't *literally* expect him to say that questioning his health is tantamount to treason, but I didn't *not* expect it

The GOP’s War on Civil Service: A Rejection of Its Own History A look at how Garfield’s murder and Arthur’s unexpected courage created modern civil service protections—and why today’s GOP is trying to dismantle them.

James Garfield was murdered by a man who thought he deserved a government job. Chester Arthur—once a machine politician—responded by helping create civil service reform.

Today’s GOP wants to undo that progress and return to patronage politics.
