Just so y'all know what the mood in Jersey City is like rn.

Putting aside the merits (do all 80-year-olds have ready access to social media?) this is an incredible conflict of interest. Musk is using his position to grant his business a monopoly over access to a public service.

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is dangerous to the American public and should resign or be fired, the executive director of the American Public Health Association (APHA) said Wednesday.

THERE IS NO DIRECT TREATMENT FOR MEASLES YOU BLITHERING IDIOT.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Every damned word of this 4-graf brief, except “By WSJ Staff,” should scare the bejeesus out of you this morning. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

GOP court decision overturning Democratic victory in North Carolina Supreme Court race is 5 alarm fire for democracy. It’s January 6 without the insurrection. Make no mistake, if GOP succeeds in stealing election in NC, they’ll use that playbook everywhere www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

“I’m very very worried about what it means for democracy if Republicans are just able to outright steal a state supreme court election in North Carolina” I told @briantylercohen.bsky.social. “What happens in North Carolina won’t stop there” www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSQU...

Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

"Supremacist Republicans are moving the supremacist sink back to its originalist spot right now, dragging it back across the floor, reconnecting the pipes of apartheid and segregation and slavery, doing things many comfortable people still insist are impossible." www.the-reframe.com/the-unmovabl...

Tariffs are a tax on hardworking Americans. Pass it on.

Along with publicly sharing classified information, Hegseth is also running the military with his family members

🔥 “Without a level playing field — without Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion — Meritocracy fails spectacularly… it’s ok to at any point stop and admit you didn’t think this all the way through.” cc: Rep. Aron Maberry (who is carrying yet another an anti-DEI bill)

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

Lmao 🤣 savages

So scary. We said people would be taken off the street in broad daylight. Here we are.

Since they are all criminals, I presume the answer is “to do crimes.”

NBC News: The Espionage Act contains a provision making it crime to disclose national defense secrets "through gross negligence."   The law does not require info be classified, because it was written before the classification system existed. The law refers simply to "national defense information."

ICYMI: Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social had some words for Rep. Farmer after Farmer grossly disrespected Pearson for missing time to grieve when his brother recently took his own life with a gun. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DHrFSp-...

The Republican Party, in charge of the US government, is kidnapping human beings and sending them to offshore torture camps with no charge no defense and no trial in defiance of the law and court orders and common decency. Fucking Nazis.

Imagine calling yourself the master race and have to resort to erasing the achievements of minorities to make yourself feel better.

If you’re protesting this weekend, know your rights.

90% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die from the disease. That's why the medical community is excited about the results of a small trial in which nearly half of the pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease remained relapse-free three years later.

If Chuck Schumer enjoys a single day in NYC for the rest of his life without being told to go fuck himself at least once, then NYC will have utterly failed as a society.

My child just asked if the x in SpaceX stands for explode. 😭

What's good for the goose...

If Tesla's stock drops far enough, the bank loans Elon took out to buy Twitter lose their collateral and get called back immediately. Which is why Elon is panicking, Trump is panicking, and their shadow backers are all panicking.

Couthness levels aside, many find the views of many Christians abhorrent because the views of many Christians are abhorrent.

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”
