War and Peas 🧿 @warandpeas.bsky.social · 1h
4-panel comic by War and Peas. Panel 1: A man reads in a cosy armchair surrounded by books. "I've read so much." Panel 2: He looks wistful. "But lived so little." Panel 3: He throws open the curtains excitedly. "I bet a world of wonders awaits me outside!" Panel 4: Outside is total chaos – atomic cloud, buildings on fire, UFOs in the sky, lightning, people fleeing. He stares blankly.

These guys in the U.S. Attorney's Office in Arizona think a judge's order is a suggestion. On the left is Judge Hinderaker's 10/6 order in the case of a gay man the Trump admin sent to Equatorial Guinea, where he has faced beatings and threats to his life. On the right is all that DOJ filed today.
10. Within three (3) days of the date of this Order, and every seven (7) days thereafter until Plaintif's return to the United States or further order of the Court, Defendants must file a status report, supported by a declaration from an official with personal knowledge, stating: (a) the information known to Defendants about Plaintiff's current location, custodial status, and physical condition; (6) the steps Defendants have taken since the prior report to comply with paragraph 5; and (c) the further steps Defendants intend to take and the anticipated timeline. Plaintiff may respond to each status report within three (3) days.Pursuant to the Court's order issued on October 6, 2026 (Doc. 14), Respondents hereby inform the Court that Respondents are working collaboratively with Petitioner's counsel who shared valuable information to help Respondents attempt to locate and contact Petitioner.
Respondents had a conference with the relevant stakeholders within the government and are beginning the process to facilitate Petitioner's return.
Respondents will provide a more substantive update next week along with a declaration regarding specific steps that are being taken and the most recent updates on Respondent's efforts to facilitate Petitioner's return.

Hard to overstate how much Hegseth's execution stream mirrors the U.S. military's traditional description of ISIS propaganda: broadcast killings designed to send a message, strike fear and create a social media spectacle. Will almost certainly be repurposed by online terror cells

I'm sure things like this happened at times during "don't ask, don't tell," but it seems rather notable that the panel did so here and quickly, did so explicitly and in writing, and did so in this environment — both as in this administration and as in this broader anti-trans moment.

This "Republicans are over-performing based on mail-in ballot requests" narrative is hitting right wing influencers on X now:
Screenshot of an X post by Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson), a verified account, posted at 11:45 AM on Oct 6, 2026. The post reads:

"Are you sitting down?

Republicans are OUTPERFORMING in Pennsylvania this midterm by a historic margin. The media will not show you these numbers. Scott Presler just dropped the data:

In 2022 there were 50,000 fewer Republican vote-by-mail requests, and 90,000 more Democrat vote-by-mail requests

Now, in 2026 Republicans are UP by 50,000 in vote-by-mail and Democrats down by 90,000.

That is a 140,000 swing in the mail-ballot gap versus the last midterm. Republicans are getting out and voting early. We're beating Democrats at their own game.

The media wants you to think we're losing so you don't vote, don't believe them.

Go vote.

Great work, @ScottPresler"

Below the text is a 1:38 split-screen video clip from The Benny Show. On the left, a man with long dark hair sits in front of a wall with a painting; an on-screen banner identifies him as "GUEST: SCOTT PRESLER, Founder of Early Vote Action." On the right, the show's host sits at a microphone in front of a lit "Benny Show" sign, with a scrolling live chat of viewer comments overlaid in the lower right corner. A "Watch again" button sits in the center. The post has 382.6K views, 1.2K replies, 7.1K reposts, 26K likes, and 511 bookmarks.
