The victim was identified as Keontae. He managed to escape and called his mom from a cornfield an hour away. Thankfully, he did not suffer serious physical injuries, but local leaders say the emotional scars are already heavy—mistrust, fear, and trauma. 4/4 www.wkow.com/news/top-sto...
Local news: If you watch it through, it sounds like the police are referring to this as a “fight.” This wasn’t a fight. It was a race-based attack. On August 16, 2025, a 14 YO Black teen from Platteville, Wisconsin, was attacked by white teens at a party in the town of Pulaski, Iowa County. 3/4
Video shows white teens punching him while yelling racial slurs like “F*** that n up” and “kill that n.”At one point, they shoved him against a meat grinder, then slammed him to the ground and kept beating him. This is not “kids being kids.” This is racial violence in 2025, in Wisconsin. 2/4
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4

#Pritzker ain't lying. That's 💯 their plan.
JB Pritzker to CBS on Trump deploying troops: "He'd like to stop the elections in 2026 or, frankly, take control of those elections. He'll just claim that there's some problem with an election, and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control if, in fact, he's allowed to do this."
#MAGA, if we can't win, we cheat. 😡
MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 That's awesome!
Honestly, the hour-long run and march of people shouting “Free DC” up 14th Street today is the energy I needed this morning. I love you, DC.

This is the emergency that required National Guard deployment? An Arby's bag in the park?

I don’t normally ask to hear from the president but it’d be nice to see if he can still complete a sentence
Wow, came in here to say, "still" is doing a lot work in that sentence, but damn, the world beat me to it. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 ❤️ you Kev! 💋
As we begin a new month, my law firm is litigation 51 voting and election cases in 25 states. 6 in Arizona 6 in Georgia 4 in Florida 4 in North Carolina 8 involve redistricting
You guys see where this is going? Right?
So we're giving it, what? 2-3 weeks before Brain-Worm Kennedy bans birth control pills outright? That's absolutely where this is going. They've already said women need to in the kitchen and pregnant.
Anyway, I’m glad to know the president is still technically alive so he can watch this tomorrow www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

a) Because congress is about to come back and will be forced to deal with the Epstein shit show. b) Because if he can get us into a war before the midterms, he'll use it as an excuse to suspend elections.
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
They loaded up those planes with children - some as young as 10. I don’t believe they had a safe place to go in Guatemala. And the government did not care. This admin is the least compassionate of any in my lifetime.
This administration still hasn't answered for all the children they "disappeared" during the family separation crisis, now this?! What is Trump doing with all these immigrant children, and is he still hiding the Epstein files!?
Well, I mean, if the brain worm addled, road kill eating, non-medical professional says it... 😶
They are actively trying to dismantle everything that can help or rise up anyone else.
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
Their kids' safety isn't as important as an old man leaning on a barrel, or their need to have 18 automatic weapons laid out on a table to show off for pictures. 🤪

Excellent question.
Welch: He claims that he's the law and order president. But we all know that's a lie because he's a convicted felon. He pardons convicted felons, he surrounds himself with obsequious people that kiss his all day, every day
When will we, the people, come before money?
When we stop electing corrupt people to represent us, then pressure the uncorrected to pass laws to prevent corruption before they get corrupted.

Well I'd say it's going swimmingly! 🤣
Today’s update from Weirdo HQ.
Hey Charlie, this gay AF, gen-X, old punk, bleeding Heart Liberal, anti-fa, atheist, nearly socialist Democrat was raised by two dyed in the wool Regan Republican conservatives who have been stuck on Fox since it first aired, and voted Trump every time. Where does he think we come from? 😏
This week, a federal judge ruled that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service broke the law when it decided not to protect gray wolves in the Northern Rocky Mountains under the federal Endangered Species Act. www.humaneworld.org/en/blog/laws...
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
"Ashli Babbitt was a grown ass adult who made a series of conscious, ill-advised decisions to engage in treasonous behavior, and she got exactly what she deserved. She was a traitor. She was a threat to national security. There is no nuance needed here."

Awww, it's really nice to see when a congressional member's plans are in perfect sync with their constitutes. It really shows the system working. 🤗
In a letter sent Thursday to Mike Johnson,Trump said he would not be spending $4.9 billion in congressionally approved foreign aid — effectively cutting the budget without going through the legislative branch. The letter was posted Friday…
I’ve seen a lot of fucked up shit in my day, but this might just take the cake.
Starbucks CEO pay: $96 MILLION Starbucks worker pay: $15,000 Coca-Cola CEO pay: $28 MILLION Coca-Cola worker pay: $14,000 CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker. In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more. The system is rigged.

Mike Johnson dismisses the unpopularity of the Big Beautiful Bill: "The individual provisions of that giant piece of legislation are wildly popular." CNN host John Berman immediately debunks that claim.
I mean, it's the only response.
As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.

Jesse is such a fucking national treasure! 🤗
The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it. ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures. Losers with power become the most dangerous kind. (c/o Caroline Codsi)

Mike Johnson makes clear that when Congress returns next week he's going to work tirelessly to cover up the Epstein files
That look of pure, 'OMG you're still talking about this shit!' on his face is priceless! 🤣

I'm old enough to remember "edgey" kids in my high school, bragging about reading the recipe to make napalm in a copy of The Anarchist's Cookbook. I never read it myself, so never knew if it was really in their, but we live in a different world now. 😬 www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
