The enemy of my enemy still did two Nazi salutes.

🚨NEW: The Republicans who run one of Texas’ biggest counties have recruited the national GOP’s top map-drawer, as well as a leading Washington, D.C.-based anti-voting group, to ram through a new gerrymander that aims to expand their majority. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/top...

I've decided to turn any hate towards this into a positive. Every time I get flipped off or thumbs down for this flag I'm gonna make a 3$ donation to www.thetrevorproject.org at the end of the month. #Pride #QueerTrucker #TheTrevorProject #LGBTQ

REPORT: “Since Election Day, Elon Musk’s staggering net worth has increased by over $100 BILLION” @SenWarren’s office just prepared this report about how Elon enriched himself after buying the election for Trump: www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

if it takes years, has to be consequences for all these people, and even more for those who gave the orders.

A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power. Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ). Isn’t this a cover-up?

2014: “Black Lives Matter!” 2016: “All Lives Matter!” 2025: “No Lives Matter!”

Homicide rates: NY 4.5, FL 7.2 Life expectancy: NY 79, FL 76.1 Uninsured rate: NY 4.8, FL 10.7

NEW: @cnn.com confirms that hundreds of FBI agents have been reassigned away from criminal and counterterrorism investigations to instead work with ICE to round up migrants. The security impacts are clear — and may be why the FBI is alleged to be hiding any paper trail.

This is the most deranged Dear Leader shit. Also likely a violation of the Hatch Act and political discrimination proscriptions.

Succinctly states where we are and what's happening. These three things, in addition to doing much else, are the sheet anchors of American wealth and power.

Donald Trump just barred Harvard from enrolling international—including Israeli—students. This was never about antisemitism.

Kagan's dissent is outstanding. But we all knew where this was going -- and we know where it's going from here.

I wouldn't have been able to attend graduate school at the University of Michigan without student loans. When I think it can't get worse, MAGA never disappoints. Cruelty is the point. Stupidity is their calling card.

6800 people who already probably have leases for next year, spent years of their lives working to get to where they were now upended because Trump and Noem and Stephen Miller want to crush a major export sector of this economy, oh, and also a source of cures for diseases and knowledge of all sorts.

It's remarkable how much of this administration's agenda has been laser focused on simply making life worse for ordinary Americans.

The art of the deal did not work today. Republicans in disarray.

do any of these people actually know what medicaid is?

thank you elon musk and donald trump for destroying this country’s ability to generate wealth for the future. we salute you. MAGA.

We’ve been going with “Swamp Force One” — but this works too. 👇🏽#HamasForceOne ✈️

Effectively a full repeal of the largest climate bill in history. There’s no strategy for America’s future. We all get sicker and pay more in energy bills and suffer climate disasters, while some rich folks pay less in taxes. That’s it. Disgraceful.

This is called "screaming your white supremacy subtext to the rafters."

by the standard laid out here, famously corrupt fictional character clay davis was not engaged in corruption

THIS is the most devastating constitutional crisis.

Holy shiitake! Trump fired Shira Perlmutter, the Director of the US Copyrights Office apparently because she refused to let Elon Musk raid the place to steal author’s intellectual property rights democrats-cha.house.gov/media/press-...

It’s amazing how this 25-year-old system was working fine *right* up to the point where DOGE started fucking with it, and then it suddenly broke. They’re like arsonists who set fires so just they can rush in and save people

The corruption here isn’t even my biggest concern. The security risk!?! The security risk is astronomical and totally unfixable. Listening devices? Tracking devices!? Software backdoors!? Intentional AND unintentional!? Unmeasurable risk.

“.. the plan raises substantial ethical issues, given the immense value of the lavishly-appointed plane and the fact that Mr. Trump plans to use it after he leaves office ..” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/11/u...

"The group, which seeks...damages, argues that the public backlash prevented the company from pursuing "the aggressive, anti-consumer tactics that it would need to achieve" its earnings goals." do you have a moment to discuss the Good News of dialectical materialism? www.nbcnews.com/business/bus...

nothing good has ever come from presenting disabled and sick people as a literal threat to the nation

Welcome to the liquidation of American dominance in science

"He can’t read [English] and it wasn’t translated in Vietnamese, or through an interpreter. So he refused to sign,” Nguyen said. “And because he refused to sign, he was separated from the other folks.” After refusing to sign a deportation document he couldn't understand, he was separated and forced

BREAKING: FEMA’s most senior official Cameron Hamilton has been FIRED and walked out of the building, an agency source confirms. He testified just yesterday that he didn’t think the agency should be eliminated, per Trump and DHS Sec. Kristi Noem’s wishes. Apparently the wrong answer.

This is dumb and makes no sense. Starting with 10% indiscriminate tariffs and ending with 10% indiscriminate tariffs means that American consumers will continue to pay exactly the same tariff tax before this “deal”.

Scoop: We've obtained internal cables showing how the U.S. government is pushing countries facing tariffs to clear way for Musk's Starlink State Dept says it's good to encourage Starlink adoption Others point to blurring of Musk's private/government roles ... www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Apropos absolutely nothing: Everything you put *into* ChatGPT/Copilot etc becomes a part of their training data, too. That means if you ask it a question like, "is Carl in Accounting a cheat?" it might say no, but also "Carl in Accounting is a cheat" is part of its training data.

Trump will host a private dinner later this month for the top buyers of his memecoin, which has made him the world's newest crypto billionaire. The top 25 coin buyers will get a "VIP White House tour." Call it what it is: corruption.

Granddaughter of a Navy vet. Daughter of a Navy vet. Mother of an Army soldier. Not one damn dime should be spent on a military parade for a draft dodger…

1/ 80 years ago yesterday, US forces liberated #Dachau concentration camp. My maternal grandfather #DavidMaxEichhorn, a Jewish Chaplain, was there. I will spend next week documenting from contemporaneous reports what he saw & did. #NeverForget #NeverAgain www.history.com/this-day-in-...

The Trump regime suspends air quality monitoring at all National Parks.

NEW: The autism research registry hasn't actually been walked back. It is still happening -- HHS is just calling it a “real-world data platform.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
