There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

With your silence as much as with your volume, you show me you are more with him than you are against him, that you are more like him than different from him, and that you and I are increasingly morally incompatible. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/i-dont-gri...

Imagine if she thought everyone deserved the rights she demanded.

Coming back from time off, seeing this in full and astounded by the level of gaslighting here. Shame on Karoline Leavitt. @natashabertrand.bsky.social doesn’t need my support but is a great reporter. Karoline is lying a lot here. Discussing this on my show Monday.

Americans can’t be more clear. They HATE Trump’s megabill.

No lies told here.

Completely Bonkers & Wackadoodle, and 30% of electorate agrees…😳

This should be a constitutional requirement, in addition to not being an insurrectionist.

Lamar Jackson has unquestionably been one of the best picks of the Ravens' strong drafting history, and that it came in GM Ozzie Newsome's final draft added another feather to his Hall of Fame cap.

Though so many here still loudly claim to embrace Jesus' command to love others as they love themselves, an increasingly loud army of self-identified faith-filled Americans seems incapable of asking: "What is it like to be someone else?" johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/is-america...

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

"Rewarding Emil Bove with a judgeship would be an affront to the rule of law," writes former U.S. attorney Harry Litman.

It's a weird thing to root for America but against its president. That's what happens when you elect a traitor.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Dare you to read this and not do anything... 😪💔

They’re lying about Medicaid cuts. They’re lying about the deficit increase. They’re lying about what they accomplished in Iran. They lie about everything. It is just a nonstop torrent of lies intended to flood the zone with propaganda.

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

raise your hand if you're not in NYC but you're following the mayoral election out of a desperate need to believe that good things are possible

THEY DID THE MATH Odds of DT flipping 88 counties red while 0 turn blue & winning ALL 7 swing states ABOVE the #recount thresholds? 1 in 5×10²⁸ chance 1 followed by 28 zeroes 1 in 50 OCTILLION #TrumpCheated WE didn't CHOOSE this Its a COUP MSM is complicit electiontruthalliance.org smartelections.us

Two things to keep in mind tonight: 1) Cuomo is an arrogant asshole. 2) NYC voters aren’t stupid.

The country that needs a regime change is us.

Mic drop.

I would love to see them give the Nobel Peace Prize to President Zelenskyy, if for no other reason to see trump turn purple with envy. I'm sure I would pass out laughing.

I don’t believe a single goddamn thing coming out of this administration. This is absolute gaslighting madness. It’s as if we’re watching toddlers run through the White House screaming and smearing Gogurt into the carpet and the entire world has to pretend it’s the Lincoln-Douglas debates.

TONIGHT: Join us, @moveon.org, @winwithoutwar.bsky.social, @workingfamilies.org, and many more grassroots organizations for the Healthcare Not Warfare rapid response call. We’ll discuss the plan for a massive, unified push to stop the war in Iran and how you can take action.

In the words of the great Hawkeye Pierce: "Someone should tear that guy down and put up a human being."

So…fluoride is out but chemicals are in? This administration wants people dead…ijs 🐐

🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands. Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

I Agree ✋

AMEN
