BREAKING: America Files For Moral and Financial Bankruptcy

great depression or greatest depression?

I was trying to find out if Gavin Newsom's next podcast's guest is reanimated corpse of Hitler, and Google showed frequently asked question related to this

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity. Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

I think Kendrick has taught all of us is that our skill for hating things is at a very basic level.

We have reached North Korean levels of sycophantry. From NY-24’s Claudia Tenney 👇 tenney.house.gov/media/press-...

The headline doesn't do the article justice. Trump's admin is arguing that anything like Black Student Associations, Black History Month events, programs to retain minorities, etc are illegal and worthy of defunding the school. www.insidehighered.com/news/diversi...

probably the most mischievous grin ever

Snoop and Tom Brady: say no to hate Kendrick: actually

He knows the song is not about him, right? Like I get the confusion, but its not about him.

Kendrick’s American flag motif at THIS MOMENT is subversive. Yes, yes, yes.

Kendrick Lamar deserves to win the very first Nobel Hate Prize

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad. There’s not.

This imbecile is now rampaging thru the Federal government like a baboon with a hand grenade.

Hedge funds are making a multi-billion-dollar gamble against the US economy, betting Donald Trump's presidency will result in a massive market crash that could devastate 401(k)s, pensions, and household savings across America. www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

NEW: The board president of a small WV nonprofit says they haven't received their HHS funding since the Trump/Musk budget freeze. They had to lay off 3 of 5 employees on Friday. An 86-yr-old woman is counting on them to take her dialysis tomorrow. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

My heart goes out to all the grown children who have had to figure out how to install wifi extenders for their parents so they can see the full complement of Ring cameras they’ve installed around the perimeter of their home in suburbs with crime rates of zero

Talk to one Palestinian with any connection even tangentially to Gaza and your entire perspective will shift about many of the debates we have here in America. Too many discussions have more to do with our domestic debates instead of the actual lived realities (and horrors) on the ground.

Ongoing research, including a new study, suggests that dogs are able to express themselves by pressing buttons in two or more word combinations that are neither random nor accidental, the authors said.

Another day, another mass grave courtesy the IDF. This is the Khalout family who was wiped from the Gaza civil registry today during a bombing in Beit Hanoun. 25 human beings from multiple generations, including children. (More reporting in Arabic: twitter.com/ajmubasher/s...)

Keep. Going.

People planned to protest an auction held inside a synagogue to sell land that was violently stolen from the people of Palestine. Some other people here and elsewhere said that would be “a bad look”. Here’s some video of such a protest. Take note on who here looks bad: x.com/bestofhasbar...

An incarcerated man donated all $17.74 of his 13-cent-an-hour janitorial wages to help civilians in Gaza. Then hundreds donated to him.

I’m sure he knows this is hurting Biden. Not his main goal but it’s a ‘2fer’ nonetheless.

The Rev. Brian Kaylor argues in an opinion piece this morning that "Christian nationalism we’re seeing in Missouri, Alabama and elsewhere values poor theology over people. It’s bad enough when taught in churches, but it’s worse when practiced in statehouses."

The University of Florida has eliminated its diversity, equity and inclusion offices, firing its full-time employees and ending DEI contracts with outside vendors

So-called “smart” borders are just more sophisticated sites of racialized surveillance and violence. We need abolitionist tools to counter them. @ruha9.bsky.social inquest.org/borders-and-...

Complicity with fascism is easy for those in power. Would your university admin resist? I am currently being told a $1000 grant that considers race is illegal under SCOTUS ruling on affirmative action. Why is no one at my university fighting back? Who told them to comply?

"union leaders said that Times managers had questioned employees about their involvement in an affinity group for employees of Middle Eastern and North African heritage and...demanded copies of private text-message conversations between colleagues" grim www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/...
