I have never been a supporter of fascism, but if the Democrats refuse to deport woke college students, I will have no choice but to embrace it.

It’s odd that work requirements for benefits was supported by the laziest president in history.

General Strike!!

The GOP’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is Robin Hood in reverse: it takes from the poor to give to the rich.SNAP (used to be Food Stamps…which Tabby and I used back in 1972) is gone. Medicare is going.

Our new analysis, which involved talking to dozens of economic development practitioners, documents how some cities are making sure that if a company gets a subsidy in the name of economic development, residents and workers benefit. More of this, please 👇🏾 goodjobsfirst.org/fair-deals-s...

GOP grifters…

Hey, if the media is interested in a cover-up of a senile president who's not really in control of his White House, there's one going on right now?

While I appreciate the "lock him up" and "impeach him" sentiments (and I'm with you), if Mueller, Garland, and impeachment taught us anything, its that 1) SCOTUS is corrupt and 2) We have to do this ourselves. As I've been saying for nearly 8 years: it's up to us. Always has been.

Maggie Hassan voted to confirm Noem. She gets zero credit for not asking this question during her confirmation hearings.

if my team won the Super Bowl because we were so good at running the most basic play possible that they had to ban it, I would not stop talking about it until the day I died. Congratulations to Eagles fans everywhere, your team defeated football

Stopped in at Wuxtry Records in Athens, GA this morning and picked up a couple of great originals for cheaper than you can buy one reissue. The owner was also kind enough to let me drop off some cards for the website. #jazzsky #vinylsky

WORDS FOR WEDNESDAY

Just to be clear, when/if someone says the reconciliation bill the GOP has been debating in the dark of night won’t add to the debt and deficit, that’s a knowing lie.

What is a world when you steal healthcare from the most vulnerable among us to make the richest Americans even richer?

🔥 @RepMcGovern: “THIS IS NOT POLICY. THIS IS THEFT… done under the cover of night.” #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

For the love of God focus on the absolutely horrible shit republicans are doing. They are having midnight hearings to hide from the American people how absolutely destructive their policies are.

These are deeply, profoundly, tragically abnormal times riven by cruel, hateful, reckless and ignorant people bent on dismantling our government, strengthening Putin, stoking fear, breaking our spirit, enriching themselves and ruling over the ashes of public liberty. We won’t let them succeed.

The left needs a Joe Rogan who is 300 feet tall and plays a tiny little fiddle. And when he gets angry he huffs and puffs but he's calmed down by a good friend who is a regular-sized elephant but looks teeny by comparison. Just absolutely itsy bitsy. And both of them are extremely anti-circumcision.

It’s Mary Anning’s birthday, so time to share @katebeaton.bsky.social’s brilliant cartoon again.

Kristi Noem incorrectly defined habeas corpus as the president’s right to deport people. Huh? That’s… not even close.

The CST Guild is aware of the third-party “summer guide” content in the May 18 edition of the Sun-Times newspaper. This was a syndicated section made externally without the knowledge of the members of our newsroom. We’re deeply disturbed that AI-generated content was printed alongside our work.

Bless her heart... Noem continually proves the gene pool needs a lifeguard.

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the inevitable defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy.

The same people who say Adriana Smith should stay hooked up to machines so a fetus can gestate inside her dead body for 7 months because “it’s a sacrifice a mother would make” can’t fathom a mother crossing the border with her children in hopes of providing a better life for them.

Does it matter if the pilot has never landed an aircraft before?

Whenever you hear conservative politicians preach from the gospel of "fiscal responsibility," remember that one of the biggest drivers of deficits lately are the Bush and Trump tax cuts, which have added nearly $10 trillion to the national debt.

What is it about this universe that a good and decent man faces an extreme form of cancer while a hateful tyrant roams free to inflict more destruction every day?

I was angry with Jake Tapper for cashing in on a former President while the current one sells off our country for parts, but now I’m pissed… We can’t get out of our own way.

Sunday morning reminder that as long as there is the slightest chance white Evangelicals can obtain or retain power they will happily embrace Satan to do so.

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

🔥🔥🔥

The always on point @nikitagill.bsky.social

When we get through this despicable period in America—and we will get through it—Americans will have learned why and how important government is to making life better.

AFSCME members in Austin are fighting back against reckless cuts to the federal budget that could devastate public health programs and put the city in a $22 million hole.

He’s a liar just like the rest of them. Kehoe ran as a “moderate.” He’s actually an extremist who doesn’t think working Missourians deserve $13.75/hour or earned sick time…even when the voters approved both.

If posting a picture of seashells on a beach is dangerous, imagine what posting classified military information on an insecure phone to people outside the security clearance would be. 🫤
