My feed is filled right now with Israeli government defenders being absolutely destroyed in TV interviews with UK journalists - Piers Morgan, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Kamali Melbourne - and being exposed. Begs the Q: why can’t US TV interviewers do tough interviews with Israelis?

Both anecdotally and in polling, liberals appear more open to left-wing policies than before. Democrats having no leader(s) means you can make progressive points to them without besmirching their faves. This is what made critiquing Obama from the left so difficult, politically.

Good.

wow -- @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com chokes up while talking about how the Trump administration is killing kids who relied on USAID to get life-saving medicine

The entire point.

VLADIMIR STOP!

The absolute disgrace taking place today in front of cameras in the White House is yet another reminder that for all the talk of Joe Biden's failures, the people who failed America the most are our citizens. Empowering this guy (again) was a foreseeable disaster we'll be lucky to survive.

they don't want to accept that this would be hasan piker, but also he wouldnt do anything with whatever money the DNC gives him he'd still just stream 8 hours a day

Break the law.

Comey on the difference between the first Trump administration and the current one: "Now it's Four Seasons Total Landscaping all the way down."

rightwingers have mastered whipping up their audiences into endless psychotic delusions and anger using social media, it’s really easy to turn an amped up angry audience into dedicated voters and harassers

He totally should have run for President tho, cause he totally would have won. /s

Why is Fox the only one reporting this? Are they just making shit up now? Very suspicious.

Match this energy every time you see a masked terrorist 🔥🔥Make them retreat back into their unmarked cars that our tax dollars fund. source - #theredneckpoppa on IG: www.instagram.com/p/DJo8_qYtUFb/ #borderpatrol #meltice #abolishice #acab

Walmart says it can’t absorb Trump’s tariffs and will be RAISING PRICES. Groceries, diapers, medicine—you’re paying more because Trump slapped tariffs on imports. Naturally, his own base getting absolutely brutalized.

An FTC lawsuit aims to sanction Amazon for withholding key documents. A newly revealed doc says a senior exec called Bezos “chief dark arts officer” because he knows how to trap users in subscriptions. The FTC alleges consumers were tricked into automatically renewing Prime.

NYT watching the Ghorman Massacre be like "This raises many questions."

Masked thugs kidnapping people off of the street are not heroes.

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

Federal agents' seemingly universal adoption of neck gaiters worn just below the eyes like they're robbing the railroad is emblematic of this time in the US

If you have to repeatedly break the law to arrest those you claim have broken the law, you’re not enforcing the law. ICE has morphed into a terrorizing Gestapo-like goon squad. They must be held accountable.

I don’t care what Ozturk wrote. It doesn’t matter. This is America. We’re fucking free to have opinions of all sorts. It doesn’t matter. You don’t get to lock up people for bad thought. That’s against the fucking law and morals and fuck every last person arguing that this is a crime. Fuck all of em

CNN cutting live to their Italian correspondent: eyyy we gotta pope here

Current state: Hopeless.

I hope everyone working on LLMs has reckoned with their role in building a technology that, so far, has offered little to no benefit to humanity — while causing real harm by degrading art, undermining labor in creative industries, and straight up automating political propaganda

It's one girl michael, how many dolls could she need? 37?

Reuters probably losing WH access today. This administration is pushing out the truth tellers in order to squelch it and promote their lies.

Except we can see the Maritime Traffic maps... Our ports are empty and shit is not coming in. Good are flowing from China to everywhere but here.

This is... significant.

Democratic Rep. Ansari to Ingraham on Abrego Garcia: "We are turning into an authoritarian country, and there are Americans from all across the political spectrum who are concerned about this."

Trump is still pushing the complete lie that Abrego Garcia has “MS-13” tattooed on his knuckles. In a sane country we’d be talking about impeachment and removal.

I sympathize with feeling fear to do your job but I feel strongly the remedy is to quit your job, not to stop doing it, especially when people rely on you to do your job.

what even happens when someone ignores a unanimous supreme court order

I guess @60minutes.bsky.social hurt Trump's feelings tonight.

We haven’t forgotten.

This is the direct result of our erosion of civil liberties in the wake of the War on Terror: the creation of ICE, DHS... Anything can be justified under the guise of "national security:" marrying McCarthyism with the modern surveillance state. SCOTUS agrees with the framing.

Based on his ability to read the moment, not inconceivable that this is an April Fools joke.

your enemy isn’t china, it’s global capital.

Trump sold $2Bn worth of Trump Media stock last week before announcing tariffs. Money cleared, he told everyone it was a great time to buy this morning. Unusual Whales showed pretty clearly what happened this morning. We got fucked so he could make billions more.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.
