@cnn.com FYI, my husband & I USED to watch CNN exclusively, but after you failed to bat down right-wing lies on your show & Trump was elected in 2016, we watching CNN. Tonight, however, we watched @gavinnewsom.bsky.social's great speech, followed by Scott Jennings; his LYING is ONE of the reasons👇🏼

They’re not banning books because they’re dangerous—They’re banning them because they expose the truth. 📚 Erased tells the history they tried to bury—& now they’re coming for it. If it’s “too dangerous to teach,” you need to read it. ⚠️Read it before they ban it for good: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

Meltdown on Truth Social in 3, 2, 1...

Please bookmark this and show MAGA everytime they say some BULLSHIT like the world “fears” Trump. They are fucking laughing at him. Laughing.

Good morning and Happy Wednesday to everyone who appreciates the fire shown by Rep. Al Green, who was ejected, and DEMs who walked out of last night's ugly trump speech. More should have booed, walked out, or even stayed home. It's time to get fucking hardcore.

This actually tells you a lot.

What a front cover...

On 6 June 1944, while Americans were fighting at Omaha Beach, Canadians were fighting at Juno Beach. Our brothers, who fought and died by our side – who helped us defeat Fascism, are not our enemy. They are our true friends. Canadians are our brothers and sisters and I stand with them 100%.

What was the last thing that went through Ashli Babbitt's head before she died? A bullet! Too soon?

Man...he literally nuked them from orbit. Thank God some people still remember their duty.

A judge on Friday ordered a pause on President Trump’s effort to block federal funding for hospitals that offer gender-transition treatments for people under 19.

AUSA Hagan Scotten, former clerk for John Roberts, really put some mustard on his resignation letter.

Look who popped by Invictus Games The Daily Show www.instagram.com/stories/isbc... #PrinceHarry #hestolemyjob watch on TSN.ca or TSN+. @InvictusGames25

This is just sheer brazen criminality by DOJ. Adams gets federal corruption charges dropped not because there isn’t overwhelming evidence, but because he agrees to help Homan round up migrants. And Homan says the charges will be refiled if Adams doesn’t “come through.”

Woof

BREAKING: Ranking Member Raskin demands Attorney General Bondi halt illegal intimidation campaign targeting the DOJ’s Public Integrity Office.

It’s unimaginable.

Never forget what russia has done to Mariupol. There can be no lasting peace in Europe without justice for this. It's either peace through strength and accountability, or more wars through appeasement and concessions. No third way.

An amazing resignation letter to Bove from an AUSA who worked on the Adams case. Money quote: “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

“I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

...they're eating the protections for the people who live there.

I heard the Pope dissed the shit out of JD Vance. Fuck yeah. Get his ass, Francis.

A conservative career prosecutor just resigned as acting U.S. Attorney for SDNY, saying the DOJ is interfering in a criminal case for political reasons. This is massive. youtube.com/shorts/7fmqs...

BREAKING NEWS: Al Franken’s old Senate Seat will be OPEN in 2026! Who else agrees he should run again? 💙

What is it about watching a 4-year-old tell a 78-year-old with the maturity of a 2-year-old to "shut up and go away" that is SO deeply satisfying?

👀 “I understand my duty as a prosecutor to mean enforcing the law impartially, and that includes prosecuting a validly returned indictment regardless whether its dismissal would be politically advantageous, to the defendant or to those who appointed me.” - Former Acting USA, SDNY Danielle Sassoon.

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.

As the military under Pete Hegseth rolls back recruiting for minority Americans remember that black women are the only reason the Army met its recruiting goals last year. Not enough white men qualify to even serve no matter volunteer. They'll learn when recruiting collapses and it ain't "wokeness."

It’s Tuesday! Be a helper!

Yes, the American Right happily consumes a steady diet of lies to fit the narratives their online grifters create for them.

To everyone asking: Yes, I am aware that @hcrichardson.bsky.social quoted me in her column yesterday! I am so honored! Thank you to Heather for acknowledging that I exist! I finally matter. “That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.”
