The term to get familiar with now is "malicious compliance"
Trump isn't going to release the Epstein files. He's going to release something that has been sliced and diced to his political benefit.
Something else to consider here is all the people who are in the neighborhoods helping protect people by spotting ICE.
More aerial footage out of Chicago, Illinois from @bgonthescene of the enormous crowds that were out today for No Kings there. Stunning. Wow. ❤️❤️✊🏻✊🏼✊🏾✊🏽✊🏿 October 18, 2025
Hegseth bringing in the military leaders the day before a shutdown isn't a coincidence.
ABC: we are shutting down Kimmel
The People: fuck you and the mouse the you rode in on
The Mouse: sorry sorry, we'll put him back on!
The People: YAAAAYYY!!!
The Mouse (quietly): ... and raise prices...
Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."
It's going to be hell for ICE in Chicago. For many of us, resisting them has become part of what it means to be a Chicagoan. These are from today and Sunday: two huge rallies in 72 hours, the second called with a days notice...

As we all know from recent history, if an aging president can show up for one speech, there's no need to worry about ongoing health. They are fine. Stop asking questions!
Proving once and for all that you cannot indict a ham sandwich.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
I stand with ... *checks notes*... John Bolton?! Oh COME ON!!!
Now if he did illegally have classified information then he should be held accountable. But it's a bit rich coming out of Trump's DOJ.
Just tell people the neck is because of that one time you went to Chicago. Look knowingly.
Real help for people is better than clever memes.
Republicans need to wake up.
Trump is showing that he's willing to weaponize the DOJ to go after his enemies.
If you think kissing his ass will protect you, you are wrong. He's a narcissist. He will turn on you in an instant. He will not reward your loyalty.
The people most eager to have soldiers patrol US cities don't live in those cities.
What is slowly driving me mad is seeing political hacks with no knowledge of science accuse scientists of being political hacks.
Actual Nazis

Something to keep in mind is that these federal agents didn't sign up for this work. This is distracting them from their real work to support Trump propaganda.
He will claim crime and homelessness are solved in DC.
Can somebody call DOGE? This seems really inefficient.
"At one intersection, a minor traffic accident between a car and a moped brought at least two dozen agents running, some wearing masks and one carrying a rifle. Local D.C. Metropolitan police were also on scene."

So happy to be back in New Orleans!
It takes all year to get ready for #NN25 & we want everyone to have a great time. So once again we share this thread of tips to get you ready for August 7-9, aka the "Before You Arrive"🧵
Pro tip: Bookmark this thread! Let's dig in.
He does not have a plan. He is looking at the shiny object in front of him and reacting. He wants to center himself and act as though he's king.
We really need to stop talking as though there's a strategy to any of what a Trump is doing.
Example: tariffs on Brazil makes no sense on its face. Even when he established them he said it was to punish them for their political choices.
This is hard to watch because this is the reality of the genocide in Gaza:
