"We're going to kill you" is crazy marketing but if it works, it works

Pritzker: "One of the reasons Trump wants to send troops into cities is bc he wants to be able to take control of the 2026 elections...if they've got troops in cities, & it becomes a kind of norm for people, then it won't be abnormal for them when they're going to vote having troops at ballot boxes"

Clay Higgins sent a letter to Bluesky and other social media sites threatening investigations if they don't censor speech critical of Charlie Kirk. They don't even know who Jay is because they addressed her as "gentleman." clayhiggins.house.gov/wp-content/u...

Alt text: Two-page letter on official U.S. House of Representatives letterhead, dated September 15, 2025, from Congressman Clay Higgins (Louisiana, 3rd District) to major tech executives, including Mark Zuckerberg (Meta), Elon Musk (X), Neal Mohan (YouTube), Shou Zi Chew (TikTok), Jay Graber (Bluesky), and Devin Nunes (Trump Media & Technology Group).

Page 1:
The letter opens by thanking the executives for their service and offering condolences. It references the "graphic, televised murder of a heroic Christian leader, Mr. Charlie Kirk," urging the companies to take responsibility by removing posts that allegedly celebrated Kirk’s death. It demands that authors of such posts be banned and new pages they create also prohibited. It frames celebration of Kirk’s murder as unacceptable in a free society, and states that Congressman Higgins has initiated a Congressional effort to enforce this.

Page 2:
The letter continues, stating that shielding offenders will not be protected under Section 230. Higgins emphasizes his role as Chair of the Federal Law Enforcement subcommittee of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, with authority over federal regulatory law enforcement. He frames the restriction of harmful public statements not as oppression, but as protection of free speech and societal standards. The letter closes with a demand for a formal response within one business week, signed "Clay Higgins, Member of Congress," and CCs Donald J. Trump (President of the United States) and Pam Bondi (Attorney General, U.S. Department of Justice).

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying. They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks. From WCVB: youtu.be/PuFIs7OkzYY

Such massive overreach. How can they expect a company to accept liability for a product bought on their website, charged by their company, and delivered by someone wearing their uniform from a truck with their logo on it?!

Senator Chris Van Hollen goes off on Donald Trump: "He's trying to convert those positions into positions can be filled by his political cronies...But what this is, is an attempt to push out these merit-based civil servants, 50 to 60 thousand of them so he can put political hacks in those jobs." 🔥

Only one media outlet is reporting that LA Mayor Karen Bass' mic was turned off during the roundtable with Donald Trump last night. None of them are reporting that they physically took away her microphone too because she kept trying to fact check him. Shameful.

i should start my own internet exchange point

I Should Buy a Boat Cat, also known as "Sophisticated Cat" and "Fancy Cat," is an image macro series featuring a photograph of a cat wearing a suit while seated at a table reading a newspaper. The captions typically describe various epiphanies and desires, often using the snowclone template "I should buy a X."

News has just broke that Trump plans to eject trans people from the military within days of inauguration. Trans servicemembers who have served 19 years will lose their pensions and healthcare. This is obscene. They served our country, and will be kicked to the side like trash.
