At least 10 gun industry businesses, including Glock, Smith & Wesson, Remington and Mossberg, secretly handed over names, addresses and other data to lobbyists, who used the details to rally firearm owners to elect pro-gun politicians. By @coreygjohnson.bsky.social (Published Oct. 2024)
Virtually every speaker the OR GOP has brought to the state for one of their events since 2022 has been, first and foremost, an election denier. Lying about elections is now basically a requirement for being a Republican in good standing.

It is insane to me that the richest man in the world is using his global megaphone to call for millions of British people to be rounded up and deported (including my family) and somehow this isn’t even news.
Ted Stevens was from the future!?!
There are few things Elon Musk knows less about than birth control. However, his “seed the world to save Western Civilization” fantasies know no bounds. It’s also worth noting that he’s retweeting this British racist for his “facts.” hopenothate.org.uk/2024/06/20/e...
9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...

An activist has started using artificial intelligence to identify ICE agents beneath their masks — a use of the technology sparking new political concerns over AI-powered surveillance. Can Washington do anything about it?

We won’t notice it at first Maybe an outbreak of cholera in southwest Kansas goes undetected Perhaps the number of flu related deaths ticks up just a bit each year But-ultimately, inexorably-the destruction of the CDC will lead to countless deaths All because of two men Trump and RFK, Jr
They don’t care if you have papers or not. What they care about is whether you look like an immigrant from south of the border.
BREAKING: Social Security Administration chief data officer and whistle-blower Charles Borges has resigned after bombshell report that SSA put highly-sensitive data at risk. He sent out an email to colleagues moments ago. Here is the text of his email shared with me:

This month, outlets like @washingtonpost.com and @npr.org have let DC Police union head Greggory Pemberton present himself as an authority on crime statistics. But he's at the heart of an ongoing scandal that led to the first ever sanction of a DC prosecutor for manipulating and hiding evidence:

This morning in DC (8/29, 7:20am), a community member witnessed masked thugs detain a man. They barely spoke to him, if at all. When he tried to pull away, they slammed him to the ground. Stay alert. Watch out for each other. We are strongest when we stand united. Submitted anonymously

Christian supremacist Sean Feucht hits Gas Works Aug 30 with his “Revive in 25” tour. His playbook is simple: provoke, film the backlash, spin it into persecution propaganda. Seattle groups are planning counter-events to flip the script. Read more at The Stranger.
"The March for Australia isn’t some wishy washy far-right populist event patched together by suburban 'mums and dads' with legitimate concerns. It has been initiated and built with direct neo-Nazi involvement every step of the way." Friends don't let friends collaborate with Nazis.

They’re coming. But not to fight crime, as the president has been threatening. No, they are going to round up the day laborers, domestic workers and gardeners. #iceraidschicago
It is not just that these employees are risking being put on leave or even fired for standing up for science (see EPA/FEMA officials), they are standing in front of a workplace that was the subject of a terrorist attack a couple of weeks ago, by a man who believes what their boss believes.

In Mass, ex-Sheriff Thomas Hodgson was holding people for ICE and mistreating them (he was mistreating all of the people in his custody but particularly people who were immigrants bc he was an open racist). The state AG found he violated the civil rights of those he held in his custody.
It's not clear to me Ohio's Governor can order the release of Ayman Soliman if he is being held by ICE. But, it is likely that Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones, a known extreme nativist and racist, is likely treating Soliman inhumanely because of his religion. www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2...

Protestors disrupted a career fair for the Department of Homeland Security who were recruiting for ICE in Chicago earlier this month. The disruption rattled security. No arrests were made. People are objecting to the illegal kidnappings and deportations.
Nicely put.
This is the second fired/not fired cluster-f at HHS in a month. Vinay Prasad did this dance at the end of July.
NEW: After reports surfaced that she had been fired, lawyers for CDC Director Susan Monarez say she "has neither resigned nor received notification from the White House that she has been fired, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, she will not resign."
The US is becoming more dangerous every day.
The symbol showing up in multiple places is the same used by Robert Crimo, the 2022 Highland Park, IL parade shooter. Some have suggested Crimo may have borrowed it from the far-right Finnish political association, Suomen Sisu.
New from IREHR: Minnesota Mass Shooter Steeped in Far-Right Lore, White Nationalist Murderers irehr.org/2025/08/27/m...
Here's what the third day of elementary school looked like in Mount Pleasant, Washington DC.
Additional signs of antisemitism. Smoke bomb emblazoned with "Jew Gas." Shotgun says "Israel must fall."
Additional far-right references: Minnesota School Shooter's pistol inscribed with "Vicki Weaver" -- wife of white supremacist Randy Weaver killed in a confrontation with the FBI at Ruby Ridge. Also had "Waco" written on rifle, likely a reference to the standoff with the Branch Davidians in 1993.
Ammo clips also contained additional callout of Breivik and "-51" (also on rifle)--reference to the 51 people murdered by Brenton Tarrant in his 2019 killing spree at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Other school shooters were written on his ammo clips, continued... * Adam Lanza, 2012 Sandy Hook school murderer. * James Holmes, 2012 Aurora Theater shooter. * Vladislav Roslyakov, 2018 Crimean school shooter.
Other school shooters were written on his ammo clips * Charles Whitman, 1966 Texas Tower sniper. * Marc Lépine, 1989 Montreal École Polytechnique killer. * Pekka-Eric Auvinen. 2007 Finnish school shooter. more...
There's references to about 10 mass shootings, one of the 9/11 hijackers, multiple far right, antisemetic and racist slogans, a bunch of very online nihilist type memes, and various conspiracy theories.
There's a desperate attempt to portray the MN school shooter as something other than reality. Here are facts: Robin Westman showed racist and antisemitic slogans and was inspired by far-right killers like Anders Breivik, Brenton Tarrant, Robert Bowers, and Tim McVeigh. bsky.app/profile/dbur...
He also had this with the slogan "6 million was not enough." A reference to the Nazi extermination of Jews in the Holocaust.
His rifle had "Thank God for Breivik" and "Brenton 4ever" carved into it, along with the name of Pittsburgh Synagogue Murderer Robert Bowers, and OKC bomber Timothy McVeigh.
After showing his guns emblazoned with racial slurs, far-right slogans, Minneapolis shooting suspect displayed a message "Hail Breivik. Hail Brenton." Neo-Nazi Anders Breivik killed 77 in Norway in 2011. Brenton Tarrant killed 51 in shootings at 2 mosques in New Zealand in 2019.

ICE agents waited until this woman’s attorney went to the bathroom to quickly grab her. She faints over and over from the stress. A bystander yells, ‘Wait for her lawyer! She’s in the bathroom!’ The agents ignore his pleas and drag her into the elevator as if she’s a violent criminal! 🤬

Many of the men deported to CECOT said they are permanently changed: struggling to sleep, drink water or leave their homes. One man broke into tears describing how he had a panic attack the first time he walked down a busy Venezuelan street.
F*ck‼️ Fort Bliss Army base used for a WWII Japanese internment is now the nation's largest ICE detention center.
The US Administration is now deleting its internal communications, in brazen violation of the Federal Records Act, in order to conceal its other illegal acts. Those entrusted to enforce our Congress’s laws sit, simply watching this happen, flaccid and impotent.
Another story that’s a nightmare. I mean that literally—ICE seems to construct bizarro realities that follow the “logic” of a bad dream. Nothing makes sense.

Repulsive, the entire resources of the United States Department of Justice seemingly focused on abusing and coercing this man into admitting he’s a criminal so Trump can save face. The principle here is “Trump cannot be wrong and we’ll destroy you until you admit it.”
