This is an absolutely critical read. Please take a few minutes and do so. www.theguardian.com/wellness/ng-...

Someone on Bluesky (I wish I could remember who) posted a couple of days ago that if you Ben the knee, they will eventually break your leg. And so it goes.

It’s ok to bribe the president when he’s on a break

Are you facing it, #America?

MAGA MURDER BUDGET

Republican Jesus always asks Himself, "WWJD?" [What Would Jerks Do?]

"You said there were no cuts to scientists, and then the HHS spox said, 'Actually, there were cuts to scientists and now we're trying to rehire them.' It gives the impression you're not sure about personnel actions in own agency." -- Jon Ossoff just dismantled FDA Commissioner Makary

@hcrichardson.bsky.social Pendulum swing McCarthy's anti communist GOP to Trump's Communist GOP dictating Walmart prices, books you can't read, who gets prosecuted and who doesn't, forcing raped child to give birth and threatening opposition including media, justices et all.

Our country is a joke. A sick joke.

What does "this is what Elon wanted" mean? Is there no one who can tell him that Elon is wrong about this? Not one Republican or a family member? Ivanka?

Don't look away, don't normalize: this is the virtually unconstrained leader of the world's most powerful country ambushing the president of South Africa with conspiracy-fueled racist propaganda promoted by his unelected billionaire maybe-appointee who has caused the deaths of children through DOGE.

Trump's press events with world leaders that he doesn't like are quickly becoming the weirdest moments in U.S. history.

“It’s the arsonist disbanding the Fire Department…Note also that Kennedy’s FDA is not merely removing the recommendation for the COVID booster and letting people make their own decisions. They are affirmatively restricting access to it.” www.thebulwark.com/p/the-arsoni...

Golden Dome is a missile defense fantasy so staggeringly unworkable it makes Fyre Festival look like a military success. It will never work. It will never be built. But Elon Musk and defense companies will make billions.

Angie Craig: "I have no idea why we think it's a good idea to repeal a tax on silencers when we are going to feed fewer children in our country as a result of this. It's a moral damn failure is what it is."

holy shit

This is absolutely incredible -- Kristi Noem repeatedly refuses to acknowledge that Trump brandished an doctored image of Abrego Garcia's tattoos, prompting Eric Swalwell to have a staffer of his brandish an image of them right in her face. Totally dystopian.

New in PN: The white rural reckoning "Months into his second term, Trump’s policies are already starting to wreak havoc on the very rural white citizens who have been his most loyal voting base."

THREAD: We recently heard that the Trump administration was leaning on the government of Gambia to help Elon Musk. For weeks, our team made phone calls, wrote letters and knocked on folks’ doors to try to confirm it. But we were stuck. So our reporters got on a plane to Banjul. 1/

“Deeply creepy” indeed: 1932, say hello to 2025.

Sounds like the fucking Hunger Games— win or be tortured and maybe killed in a concentration camp, for entertainment of the fascist billionaire class.

It really is this simple. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

BILL GATES: “The picture of the world’s richest man killing the world’s poorest children is not a pretty one.” @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/bdd9...

Biden on The View today said he’s not surprised that Kamala Harris lost to Trump, citing the sexist and racist attacks against her

Hey, is life imprisonment with no chance of parole a normal sentence for crossing the border illegally or

🚨BREAKING: Federal District Court REJECTS Republican effort to overturn North Carolina Supreme Court election result. Orders the state to certify the results of the election and not proceed with the cure process. Congratulations to our clients, the ELG team, Justice Riggs and the voters of NC!

I appreciate that you don't ever want to hear the sound of his voice, and I know that you already know that he's a deranged idiot, but: This really needs to be heard to be believed.

U.S. Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) has requested a House of Representatives ethics investigation on his colleague Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) because she held a town hall in his district. bit.ly/42WECkP

Trump's EO calls for military and national security "assets" to be deployed on American streets to assist with law enforcement, and for the prosecution of local officials who talk about "DEI stuff" like the history of racist police violence. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

There’s an economic tsunami coming our way, and we aren’t prepared for it.

The richest 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

It takes a massive brass neck to have your administration attack another president for being disrespectfully dressed in a meeting and then turn up to the pope's funeral in a blue suit.

Wearing a bright blue suit, texting, and then sleeping at Pope Francis’s funeral. What an embarrassing mess.

BREAKING: @aclu.org says Trump deported a child (U.S. citizen) with metastatic cancer without medication or consultation with physicians. This is the second child with cancer he's deported. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol... @rollingstone.com

Jimmy Carter had to get rid of his peanut farm because it might look like he made an unseemly profit from being president. But Donald Trump is being allowed to shake down foreign countries to personally pay him protection money with his cryptocurrency to stave off his insane, illegal tariffs.

Conservative and liberal judges across the country this week ruled against President Donald Trump in at least 11 different lawsuits challenging his administration’s immigration, elections and anti-diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Feels like this isn’t hitting like the bombshell it should be. Has the Times or the Post even covered it yet? abcnews.go.com/Politics/heg...

Plenty of politicians on both sides of the aisle feel threatened by rising class consciousness.

RFK Jr blames diet, lifestyle & vaccines for chronic illness. Dr Oz says it’s a “patriotic duty” to lead a healthy life & be fit enough to serve in the military. Neither of them are pushing for Universal Healthcare, basic income, an end to food deserts & inequality, clean water etc. It’s eugenics

Attorneys for election denier and My Pillow Guy Mike Lindell face possible discipline for submitting an AI-generated brief full of fake legal citations. A federal judge in Colorado was not pleased. youtu.be/EIHLX_mO9QY?...

When the open letter from univ prez against Trump over-reach was released on Tues morning, it had 180 signers. By Tues evening, over 270. Through the day Wed (yesterday) it went into mid-300s. This morning, Thurs, starts at more than 400. This is significant. (Point of my post.)

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private server or Pete Hegseth using the nuclear codes as his password on Pornhub, both parties have ignored our nation's security.

But her emails…
