There's always been a fight over the true story of America. I believe deeply in the story that says we’re all created equal, and that if we can treat each other with decency and respect, all of us will be better off.

I talk about this and more on the final episode of WTF with Marc Maron. Watch now:

"This is supposed to be an oversight hearing" -- Schiff helpfully ticks through all of the incriminating questions -- and there are many of them -- that Bondi refused to answer during today's hearing

If ICE agents are proud of what they're doing, then why do they cover their faces like cowards, refuse to identify themselves, and hide behind anonymity?

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

Showed a clip from a documentary about Korematsu this morning and managed not to yell back during the part where Justice Anthony Kennedy explains that presidents should never be granted unlimited powers or blindly trusted when they say it's an emergency situation.

Chills…

A frog just defeated ICE. Somewhere Pepe is crying.

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

He could’ve fought, but he faked bone spurs. So someone else had to go in his place - most likely a working class kid whose daddy couldn’t afford to bribe a doctor. Now he’s talking shit about how it should’ve been fought.

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

A mass shooting in Alabama, but no, send troops to Portland. A democratic judge and senator's house gets burned down, but no, it's the left that's violent. Sickening.

It’s of note that during tonight’s hearing the DoJ didn’t even try to make the case that changing conditions on the ground in Portland warranted the CA National Guard. Instead they relied on legal technicalities. Proving again that what they say in court is different than lies they tell the public.

Bonta: Just minutes before the hearing, we got word that the Texas National Guard has been federalized.

We asked the judge to issue a broad order — one that applies to every National Guard unit in every state — stating that none of them can be deployed to Oregon.

She issued that order

Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror."

Then hearing someone like Tove Lo where it's obvious she had some sort of involvement in the song making process and isn't just a hired voice

It's always weird hearing someone's music like Dua Lipa, for example, where it's like a bunch of producers and DJ's came in and created the tracks and just needed someone to sing over them.
