A year ago first debate. It was….well as dark as it has been since.

News: Shepard Fairey (@obeygiant.bsky.social) creator of the iconic Obama HOPE poster releases a new #FreeKilmar poster saying he was disgusted by the Trump administration’s use of his style to attack Kilmar. Goes on to lay out the “corrupt” case against him by the admin.

GOP reps and other bad faith maniacs wanted to act like @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social eating w/ his hands was so insane like our country isn’t a mix of many cultures. Watch this awesome dude named Kent eating Ethiopian food (w/ his hands) & saying pardon my language but this is some really good shit

🚨I received FULL VIDEO from inside Noem presser showing @padilla.senate.gov manhandled, pushed, and shoved to the ground and handcuffed. Outrageous.

It broke my heart when I asked Mateusz what he and his US citizen wife from Michigan would miss and he gave me an incredible answer that ended with him clarifying to me that he’ll miss the merengue and reggaeton played by his fun-loving Latino neighbors

Response from Rep. Bennie G. Thompson:

“The Trump administration charging Rep. McIver for conducting her lawful oversight duties is purely political and is the true weaponization of government by a Felon President and his cabal of minions always at the ready to do his bidding.”

Amir Fallah, who helped organize the call to action, exhibits his art around the world.

Matt Lipps who did the first piece does so from London to Germany

Deborah Aschheim did the second and has her work across the US and Mexico

Fallah got hundreds of artists on a Zoom in a day

“The portrait of him and his son is a way to remind people that no one experiences harm alone or in isolation—he’s part of a family, it’s a sacred connection,” Seanna Latiff who donated these three pieces told me. “I wanted to amplify the voice of a child that can’t advocate for themselves.”

So painful yet so powerful:

“Ma’am, would it truly bring you peace and comfort if you were to hug him?”

Tinajero embraced him and whispered something in his ear.

Judge Medrano turned away and began to weep. Media and other victims’ family members in the courtroom sobbed.

🚨News: A prominent author reached out to me about how the Trump administration tried to denaturalize her father-in-law and end his social security benefits and Medicare.

Her family speaks English and was able advocate for him. But what about those that can’t?

Serious Q: When do we discuss whether Homan has a problem? This is weird stuff.

Out of Americans in the middle, who aren’t full MAGA but support criminals being deported for example, here’s how many support deporting the spouse of a US citizen, as is the case here:

5%.

The White House thinks sharing this is some flex. Deranged.

🚨 Hey you know who thinks ICE is getting tattoos wrong? The guy who studied Trump’s previous obsession MS-13 for 16 years and wrote a book about them!

In case you’ve been a little out of it or this pathetic attack on Zelensky is what dragged you back to media coverage:

News org headlines on the incident will tell you plenty about where they stand and their posture toward / fear of Trump admin.

This for example is accurate
