BREAKING: A federal judge just temporarily blocked the Trump admin's plans to lay off thousands of federal workers during the government shutdown — siding with unions, which have argued that the dismissals were illegal.

Even We Rate Dogs is writing anti-ICE screeds after they killed a dog for no reason entering someone's house to look for Anne Frank.

Rest In Power, Chop.

RIP Chop, fuck ICE
We Rate Dogs O
This is Chop. He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by
ICE. They showed up at his door "looking for migrants after receiving a tip." The son of
the family asked if they could wait before entering the home while he put Chop away
in the bathroom, as the dog can be aggressive with strangers. According to the family,
it is at this point that the son went to his pickup truck to retrieve his ID and a Border
Patrol agent entered the home, opened the bathroom door, and shot Chop. None of
the agents helped the family, who desperately tried to render aid to Chop, as he bled
to death on the kitchen floor. Unsurprisingly, the agent who shot their dog then hid
from them and refused to give his name. Even more unsurprising, they did not find
any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place.
Do not open your door for these fucking losers. Rest easy Chop 14/10

Dr. Phil went full MAGA and tried to reinvent himself as a MAGA media mogul and culture warrior. Now his world is unraveling, his media company is laying off thousands and had to file for bankruptcy, and he's being sued for fraud. The whole plan is collapsing.

D’Angelo has spoken against his sex icon image. He was pushed into that by the label and hated when he was on tour and ladies were treating him like a stripper. I hope in his passing we can celebrate his incredible musicality and dedication to the craft. 🌚

maybe this will help some realize that you don’t need access to cover the government effectively. in fact, it’s actually better.

"(Officers) refuse to recognize local or court authority. A judge says you can’t arrest journalists. Watch us. A judge says we have to wear badges. No. State law says we can’t drive around in unmarked vans? Too bad. Elected officials who want to see what is going on should prepare to be arrested."

BREAKING: The Sixers are bringing Hip Hop back for a few games this season, to celebrate the 2001 team.

Bill Roth, who played the mascot from 1998-2011, will come out of rabbit retirement, too.

(He'll try not to tear an ACL or achilles this time).

The Sixers’ mascot, Hip Hop, was retired in 2011. Now, for the 25th anniversary of the 2001 team, they’re bringing him back.

And that's not all. Bill Roth, the original mascot, is coming out of retirement as well.

Tariff money they can’t possibly redirect. There’s no big pot the revenue goes into. And ICE falls under DHS and funding is Congressionally appropriated. Grifters the whole way, as usual

Has any journalist done a piece on the promises made for ICE recruitment? I’d really love to hear that these fuckers haven’t seen a dime of those bonuses they were promised. Also, where was that money coming from?

Mamdani volunteers out and about on a rainy day in my neighborhood today. Simply the best organized local campaign I’ve seen in my lifetime.

The political party that doesn’t *beg* this campaign for help and guidance nationally just isn’t very interested in winning.

it’s hateful to have to do so, but make sure to mention the blowback on tall cis women, GNC cis women, butch lesbians, and any cis woman who doesn’t look feminine enough for the toilet police. MPs will be more inclined to sympathise if they understand that this isn’t *just* a trans issue.
