Governor Newsom may defend us in speech, but he's voting to kill. His proposed budget for 2026 targets elderly, disabled, and undocumented Californians, and strips them of access to healthcare.

In case y’all ever think kids aren’t paying attention. They built protest games on Roblox. And now even Aaron Parnas is talking about it.

The people who claim we’re in an “echo chamber” are literally trying to imprison everyone who disagrees with them.

you have to use levers and pedals to fret it. humans can’t even hear the lowest notes that it plays, you can just feel the vibrations.

why do I feel like a significant number of Democrats will vote for this and then say that they had no choice and no control over the outcome?

“Outdated” is a weird way of saying that ‘miasma theory’ was completely disproven in the 19th century. Germ theory is a “theory” like gravity is a theory. It has been proven.

You almost have to appreciate just how beautifully this illustrates the gerontocratic nature of American politics: the Ancient Umbrella is imbued with more experience simply because it existed longer.

Before the cops in LA started escalating things for no reason it was funny how my main takeaway was how much people were looking out for each other in really helpful ways. I’ve never seen so many people with carts giving away free water, sunscreen, snacks, and masks to total strangers.

We keep finding more and more ways that covid harms children: “Prenatal SARS-COV-2 infection in pregnant women is linked to developmental delays in toddlers, with cytokine and chemokine changes associated with neurodevelopmental outcomes at 24 months.”

What a privilege it is to live in a country where we have rarely known what it is like to fear being killed by any other government but our own.

Fox hosts, parroting DHS, claimed Sen. Padilla "ran at,” "lunged at," and tried to “bum-rush” Kristi Noem. Video disproves their claims, showing Padilla standing calmly across the room asking his question as security grabs him.

"We need answers" — Jesus, man, it's on tape, we have all the answers we need. Stop waving through crypto bribe bills and start forcing some accountability — maybe start by withholding unanimous consent?

Men are pretending to be ICE to abduct women as if this wasn't the most predictable thing to come out of allowing masked goons with no ID to snatch people off the streets.

If you feed or shelter ICE in Southern California, the people will bring the protest to you. You can count on it.

Greetings! I’m at the DoubleTree Hotel in Whittier, CA (in Los Angeles county). Protesters against federal detention raids say that officials have been staying here though I have not independently confirmed. Hundreds outside, chanting “kick them out.” It is EXTREMELY loud.

Kennedy’s ACIP 2.0 is as expected. Headlined by charlatans that have nothing to lose and will rubber stamp ludicrous policies. I strongly urge my fellow healthcare providers to speak up and be unafraid. We must ensure there is accountability through collective action.

RFK Jr’s ACIP pick, Martin Kulldorff, said one of the most disturbing images from the pandemic was a toddler crying about having to wear a mask. I see toddlers cry about everything all the time, and I found it far more disturbing to see refrigerator trucks full of body bags outside of the hospitals…

a lot of the people who will chastise you for criticizing Dems instead of focusing on Trump are surprisingly willing to criticize protestors instead of focusing on Trump

this is the kind of thing that might sound far-fetched, if you aren’t old enough to have watched the corn industry completely rewrite nutrition science and animal husbandry.

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Karen Bass could have done some actual good for our city, and been seen as a folk hero for generations, but sadly she is owned by exploitative capitalists who rely on oppressive law enforcement systems and personnel to do their bidding. She is not, and will never be, one of us.

Glad to be able to read & share this piece written on Ghost. She discusses how critiques of protest tactics by the left serve to legitimize the excuses & lies of the right: “It's a way that the right is granted masculine prerogatives and the left feminine responsibilities for the right's behavior.”

The right is shaping public perception of these protests just like it shaped public perception of the BLM protests, because it dominates the information ecosystem. The narratives it has spent years crafting & spreading are shaping how current events are interpreted.

Amen thank you, the uncritical media is carrying water for Trump and legitimizing the presence of armed soldiers on our streets by cherry-picking images and repeating lies.

No sleep for ICE tonight as activists found their hotel again. Hotel managers have to decide whether that GSA per diem money is worth having their hotel completely surrounded 24/7 by protesters.

This is why they're so goddamn insufferable, from DJT all the way down to your own asshole relatives - they're fucking babies who don't care about what is right or wrong, truth or lies, they can ONLY think about "owning the libs" & getting their petty jabs in. This is why bipartisanship is a joke.
