The roommate of Minnesota shooter Vance Boelter, responding to MAGA lies that he’s a Democrat: “He would be offended if people called him a Democrat,” he told CBS News, adding that Boelter “was a Trump supporter, voted for Trump,” and was happy Trump won the 2024 election.

Remember, we had a diplomatic resolution to the Iran nuclear issue, thanks to the JCPOA that Obama put in place after years of hard work, but then President Spiteful Shithead withdrew the U.S. from the pact in 2018 and everything fell apart. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

OMG. According to two members of Congress that just conducted an inspection and confirmed horrible conditions at the ICE detention center where unrest led to 4 people escaping, apparently people were able to escape because an EXTERIOR WALL was made of drywall and wire mesh!

Trump’s go-to line about every foreign policy crisis and war - from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, to October 7th, to the Israel’s devastation of Gaza - was “It would never have happened if I was president.” Welp.

I spent so many years covering propaganda anticipating this exact moment and so many of my peers bought the paid-for contrarian line that even covering disinformation was somehow, itself, censorship. Now we're at the event horizon. Celebration is protest is riot is justification for a police state.

Absolutely grotesque abuse of government power. Lying to educators in order to entrap children. No wonder they want to hide their identity.

The "1.2 m illegal immigrants" number - (from @pewresearch.org - has been seized on by Reform, unchallenged by BBC/media. It's a lie. 1. It includes large number of people with leave to remain" - here legally. 2. It includes* children born here 3. It's upper limit of 800K-1.2m range

Honestly social media has been so much better since I adopted "don't engage, just block" as a strategy. Also I find I get much less angry when the dickheads show up. I just go, "oh, troll, right," and immediately block them, no change in blood pressure and I've forgotten they exist seconds later.

Jonathan Joss' (actor from King of the Hill and Parks and Rec) husband has released a statement that amongst other things claims his murder was part of a homophobic attack. A high profile hate crime at the very start of Pride. Absolutely heart breaking.

A case can be made for reworking the PDB into a video because that’s how Trump consumes information but I have some questions about the details. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Your reminder that someone can appear to be at the top (of the world, of their field, etc) and feel rather dramatically differently. I'm glad Jim worked through his issues, is still here with us and is still writing the books so many people love. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/19/b...

Incredibly telling moment. Trump is completely sure he is right here. We have a president that is pickled in his information bubble, high on his own supply, can't tell his administration's propaganda from reality. Next the White House will insist Trump is right!

The judge appeared to have violated no law and did not impede ICE. This really feels like FBI was being used to intimidate judges.

people who refuse to admit they're wrong are dangerous people yes, even when it's over something "unimportant" denial of evidence and rejection of proof means a person cannot be trusted. you have no idea what other lies they're telling. more people need to understand this

donald trump has good days and bad days but increasingly for grandpa it's only the type of days where his scheming vizier makes important executive branch appointments on his behalf without informing him. losing it. brains leaking out his ears.

Old enough to remember when the GOP thought the biggest scandal in the world was the Obama admin's IRS reviewing the tax exempt status of some right leaning non-profits.

Honestly I'm glad they picked Harvard to try out this novel "we're mad" legal theory of revoking tax-exempt status, given its infinite resources, deep network of powerful alumni, and law school attended by 142 sitting federal judges. Good luck! 🫡

Beyond the horrifying "look at us doing tourist shit in a foreign concentration camp," nature of the photos, doesn't this totally undermine the claim that it's somehow impossible to get the people that were illegally shipped over here.

Some would say "sneaky tactic" others would observe that odometer fraud is a federal felony. A creative prosecutor could probably tack on some conspiracy and mail or wire fraud charges too.

Time to start impeachment proceedings. If the Supreme Court doesn’t matter, we do not have a working democracy. If we cozy up to an El Salvadoran thug, what are we?

Legal permanent resident of the U.S., showing up to apply for citizenship, with no allegations of criminal activity, is arrested and detained by masked police. This is fascism, and that is not a word I use lightly. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/n...

Yeah, but he said it on camera into a live microphone. As long as Trump brags about his crimes openly, the media pretends there's nothing wrong. There's only something wrong when a politician covers it up, see.
