You go first, Joni, if you feel that way about it.

If you put two NYT stories together you do get “man allegedly completely strung out on drugs uses the US government to kill 300,000 people”

That’s a hell of a campaign slogan

“Any question that isn’t a tongue bath isn’t real journalism”

Ah. Yes. Of course. Ffs the other third of the country who slept through the election needs to wake TF up.

This Saturday 1pm : #TeslaTakedown in front of the Palo Alto Tesla dealership on El Camino Real. Sometimes referred to now as No Kings Road… www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

I…worked to sound the alarm on Leonard Leo’s sordid capture and degradation of our judiciary for the better part of a decade…and… he just tweeted it out.

After Elon Musk recently announced that he will step away from DOGE, @annabower.bsky.social details her search over the past 3 months for who was actually the administrator of the agency as it fired federal workers, accessed sensitive data, and worked to reshape the executive branch.

👏👏👏

Republicans have been pushing really hard for their "big, beautiful bill"—and so far, they have been pretty successful in "shaping the narrative about the bill as it awaits action in the Senate." So where the hell is the Democratic pushback? www.thebulwark.com/p/musk-hands...

You had me at “President Soft Taco”

IRS’s Direct File wasn't open source while it was being developed. But somebody just made it public!

Did not have this on my bingo card

Here’s something we can all do: every time we see something about the Trump administration’s attacks on science — and the impacts of those attacks — boost it. People, and even faculty, have no idea how bad it is and how much worse it’s going to get. We need to let people know…

(There is no coherent left media machine worth mentioning. There is just us.)

An analysis predicts the Trump tax bill will add $3.8 trillion to the deficit and negatively impact households at the lowest end of the income scale.

Once again, it's not "doxxing" to report the name of a government employee.

This is the definition of a bribe. These people are saying they think it’s a bribe. Why not say that in the headline?

We’re gonna find out they used ChatGPT to write this, won’t we

The wife of a man who was detained after his asylum hearing in San Francisco last week is speaking out and pleading for help.

After burning a few town buildings to ash, DOGE became the whipping boy for every fire 🔥 that started, even for the ones they had nothing to do with.

Ditching the weirdest guy on earth to fuck the 2nd weirdest guy on earth

Couple things: 1. Elon is full of shit. Ignore the credulous media. He won't stop wreaking havoc. 2. We're winning, but it will take time. Take to the street, fight back, make your voices heard. Dump your Tesla, sell your stock. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest or create your own at TeslaTakedown.com!

“Regardless of whether the court views the President's actions through the nondelegation doctrine, through the major questions doctrine, or simply with separation of powers in mind, any interpretation of IEEPA that delegates unlimited tariff authority is unconstitutional.” reason.com/volokh/2025/...

WE ARE RELIEVED TO HEAR A U.S. COURT HAS RULED THAT TARIFFS AGAINST OUR ISLAND WERE ILLEGAL AND A SPECTACULAR MISUNDERSTANDING OF GEOGRAPHY, BIOLOGY, AND REALITY. FLIPPERS UP UNTIL WE ARE PERMANENTLY SHOWN DUE RESPECT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER -PM Tuxley II
