The CBS investigation portrays a modern concentration camp, similar to the Soviet GULAG (like CECOT, an acronym): sadistic guards, 24 hour lighting, isolation cells.
Americans once opposed this inhumane system.
The Trump administration sent innocent people there to suffer.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal β€œresources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Opinion | The blunt truth about Charlie Kirk’s legacy "Right now, America is watching an aggressive effort to canonize Kirk β€” a man whose life’s work left scars on millions of people like me," Nekima Levy Armstrong writes.

I do not believe people should be shot. I do not believe in dehumanizing others, certainly not for profit or power. These beliefs would not bond me to Mr. Kirk. For those who are hurting, I wish space to grieve and, I hope, to reflect on how these beliefs may apply in the society we share.

Opinion | America First? Not When It Comes to Your Health.

The @NYTimes has done a fantastic job on explaining what the Trump administration’s savage
cuts to biomedical research mean: cures that won’t happen. Please share this widely. This is a catastrophe. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/24/o...

Brooks’ conservative movement worked the plan hatched after Goldwater’s loss and the realization that Americans wanted an inclusive society with real opportunity for all and a government to make that happen. Now he blames this mess on the libs !?!? Bullshit. He has his own dirty hands to clean.

Republicans renew a bid to remove noncitizens from the census tally behind voting maps GOP lawmakers are trying again to exclude millions of non-U.S. citizens living in the states from census counts that the 14th Amendment says must include the "whole number of persons in each state."

MACS (Minnesotans for the American Community Survey and Census). We are providing leadership to promote a fair, accurate, and fully-inclusive Census and ACS . . . and to fight this anti-democratic bullshit. Check us out: macscensus.org

Reporter Tells Trump To His Face That The Media Sanewashes Him This was a fascinating moment as Trump rambled on with his 60 Minutes/Kamala Harris conspiracy theory, a reporter reminded Trump that the media sanewashes him every day.

open.substack.com/pub/politicu...

Th sanwashing continues. I have yet to hear a media report describe Trump’s behavior in relation to Iran as anything other than just (his!) normal negotiation strategy. Excuse me, it is ERRATIC. Not normal! He is not some savant negotiator.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

No need to watch US-produced films until this BS is shut down. The world is producing a lot of great films and art that are well worth the time and extra cash to experience them.

Trump’s movie tariffs are designed to destroy the international film industry

If Goldberg is such a bad journalist (he is not), why did Mike Walz include him in the PC chat?

LITTERALY! What about his emails (or IMs on Signal)?

Elon Musk’s Team Now Has Access to Treasury’s Payments System (Gift Article) Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent gave Mr. Musk’s representatives at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency a powerful tool to monitor and potentially limit government spending.

The coup is underway . . . A MAGA/2025 oligarch now has absolute control over whether or not funds appropriated by Congress are paid out. (What do you mean there are no longer Medicaid reimbursement? Why has my social security stopped?)

Government data, INCLUDING CENSUS DATA, is being scrubbed. There will be no facts, only the pronouncements of the MAGA/2025 deranged.

@carlbergstrom.com is right--this is bad, very bad. Yes, we're in the shock and awe phase of the Trump Administration, but that quip obscures the real damage that is now being done to biomedicine in America in real time in front of our eyes.

Thousands of doctors urge Senate to block RFK Jr. as health secretary for Trump administration Their letter calls the choice of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is known for promoting false medical claims, β€œa slap in the face” to health care professionals.

There is no scenario where RFK Jr should be anywhere near HHS. Reporters, pundits and politicians trying to normalize this nomination are complicit in the coming disaster his rise represents. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...
