The Venn Diagram of people asking how Gazans have phones and internet access and people asking how people in the United States can be poor when they have phones and internet access IS. A. CIRCLE. YOU CAN HAVE A PHONE AND STILL BE HUNGRY. YOU CAN HAVE A FLATSCREEN AND STILL BE POOR.

How many times have Hamas accepted a ceasefire deal only for Israel to reject it

I guarantee not a single member of the "intellectual dark web" would perform any better in a situation where they're allowed to get pushback. You think Dave Rubin or Sam Harris would be able to defend race and IQ against a single college student who watches Shaun?

Jordan Peterson tried debating 25 college students on religion and it turns out when they're not in their safe spaces or echo chambers the intellectual dark web and their arguments are nothing more than the ramblings of deluded bigots www.youtube.com/watch?v=12DY...

This is the world that people like JK Rowling, Matt Walsh, and Jesse Singal work every day to achieve

Are we great yet?

A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035.  Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.

“When John [Spencer] and Douglas Murray and these people say, ‘Oh, we've been on the ground in Gaza.’ Yeah, as guests of the Israeli military that's doing the killing, starving, and maiming.” @mehdirhasan.bsky.social debates pro-Israel US war analyst John Spencer on Piers Morgan Uncensored

Ms.Rachel is showing more humanity than our politicians

Israel’s official story is that it fired “warning shots” at a group of diplomats and journalists because their tour had veered into an unauthorized area. Even if every word of that story is true, it’s still a deranged, unhinged thing to do.

House chamber burst into laughter when Marjorie Taylor Greene called for "decorum."

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

This flew under the radar, but thanks to Trump's EPA cuts, Energy Star could shut down for good. Energy Star isn't just a sticker on your appliances. It's an important program that saves consumers $40B/year. So much for all that talk about "efficiency."

The only way for Dems to fight this is to draw up a list right now of GOP lawmakers they plan to prosecute if they get back into office in 2028. Right now the pressure is all one way; it’s asymmetric warfare.

There is a genocide in Gaza that our government is funding. The time to speak up was in 2023. And in 2024. And now in 2025. It is not a war. It’s ethnic cleansing and genocide and two administrations have handed Israel’s government everything it wants to carry it out.

Israel has destroyed every university and 85 percent of schools in Gaza. Four young women talk about how they keep studying amid the violence.

Israel is accelerating their genocide right now and not a single western politician is stopping it www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblo...

Random reminder that banning members of Congress from trading stock is a total no brainer. They can use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake — it’s legalized corruption.

The state of Georgia is using the body of a brain-dead woman as an incubator. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she died, and their abortion ban is from about 6 weeks, they are sustaining her on life support, without input from her family, until 32 weeks of gestation. A true dystopian nightmare.

Skeptics say my childcare $10 day bill that pays workers $20 hour is pie in the sky. They are wrong. New Mexico shows you can make childcare free & raise wages for providers. Dems need to dream big to improve life for working families. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

These are called busses and they should not be private.

America is where the Planned Parenthood shooter was too insane to stand trial for murder, but not too insane to legally buy multiple semi automatics.

Trump is proposing a $1 trillion military budget. Roughly half of US defense spending goes to private military contractors, with investigations finding that these companies routinely price-gouge. Oh, and the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits. "Fiscal responsibility."

“Hasan Piker detained at the border and questioned for hours over politics” The free speech party is really the fascist party.

In 2024, Biden signed into law a $105 billion measure designed to end a shortfall in air traffic controllers. In 2025, Trump came in and instead began firing hundreds of them. So you can see how *clear* it is that Biden is to blame for the shortage now.

It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

Bribery in plain sight.

Advance Financial’s Flex Loan charges 279.5% interest, trapping thousands of borrowers in debts that end up in court, where the company has won over $200 million in judgments since 2015. By @friedmanadam5.bsky.social, w/ @tennesseelookout.com

The GOP’s reconciliation bill is one of the worst environmental bills I’ve ever seen. It guts public input, silences tribal and community voices, slashes environmental protections, and hands sacred and public lands to the lowest bidder with no accountability.

Your daily reminder that the U.S. Postal SERVICE is a service that is designed to benefit taxpayers and not a business that should be expected to turn a profit.

“Well, we’re doing a shitty job running it, so it must not be that great”has basically been the Republican m.o. for the last forty years.

FYI: real song. I’m sharing a screenshot to avoid spreading this nonsense

Oops.

We are not under invasion. There is no justification for suspending our constitutional rights. Every single American should speak out against this, loudly and forcefully.

Do your job, Sean.

‘Who Killed Shireen?’ — our explosive new documentary is finally here. After a months-long investigation, Zeteo uncovers the hidden identity of the Israeli soldier who killed the famous Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in 2022, a secret closely guarded up until now.

1/ For ProPublica’s “Life of the Mother” series, winner of the 2025 Pulitzer Prize for public service, we reported on five pregnant women who died after not receiving timely medical care in states with strict abortion bans. These are their stories 🧵

THE PENTAGON BUDGET JUST HIT A TRILLION DOLLARS. Not a single pundit from either political party said “how are we going to pay for it?!” Don’t dare tell us we cannot ALL have healthcare, housing, and education.
