Bondi DOJ has a problem. On left: DOJ Indictment and Detention Memo allege Abrego Garcia lied to officer by not revealing he was coming from Texas On right: DHS Referral Report: "Subject stated he was driving 'three days ago' (11/27/2022) from Houston, TX to Temple Hills, MD (via St Louis, MO)"

In an act of integrity and resistance, a supervisor in the Nashville federal prosecutor’s office resigned over how the Abrego Garcia case was being handled. The charges are bogus, pure political theater meant to justify a wrongful abduction.

Britney Spears was under a conservatorship for 13 years for being less bonkers than this.

Bro they lobotomized your aunt

It's funny how when you ask them why they think Pope Francis was "too woke" and request specific examples, they always wound up describing Christ's teachings without a hint of self-awareness.

Head Start, an early childhood education program for low income families, is on the chopping block. Growing up, my own mom was an aide with the program; it’s helped countless young mothers, including the one who tells her story here. www.kqed.org/news/1203596...

My name is Ben and I have autism. I’m not less than anyone else I just see the world differently. Lately I’ve been working on losing weight by walking. I walked 5 miles yesterday. It’s also helps with my confidence and I can enjoy the outdoors and the scenery.

Ahead of Trump's anticipated attack on non-profits, maybe all non-profits should reclassify as churches and say: "Your move."

The Florida State University shooting was the result of the child of a deputy sheriff stealing her firearm. Last year, I wrote a piece about this exact topic: no responsible gun owner has their firearm stolen by their child. charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/its-imposs...

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

"What the U.S. is doing now is not reform. It is rejecting the very system it created." - Singapore's Prime Minister Lawrence Wong (April 8, 2025)

Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"

I’m honestly quite pissed off that I pay all this money in taxes only for the US government to try very hard to destroy my livelihood, my retirement savings and that of my neighbors. I feel like a Karen. I want to talk to the manager. I want my money back. People need to be fired.

One of the best Downfall takeoffs I’ve ever seen. The subtitles are simply brilliant.

Don’t call them tariffs. Call them import taxes.

If you’re a journalist or lawmaker still planning to attend the White House Correspondents Dinner after WHCA cancelled Amber Ruffin to placate a petty tyrant, you need to dig deep and ask yourself why you’re really still going because it sure as hell isn’t to celebrate the First Amendment.

This year's White House Complicity Dinner is an excellent opportunity for White House correspondents to be elsewhere. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/29/u...

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

Autocorrect often plagues me, but this morning, it turned “awful but lawful” into “waffle but lawful” & I’m going to be laughing all day.

I bought Twitter for $44,000,000,000 and sold it back to myself for $33,000,000,000. I have 43 kids and no friends. Everything I make explodes

Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator. In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

it's the anniversary of the time a grandma accidentally cut off the whole country's internet while digging around for scrap metal

This. This right here

Based on the replies l, it looks like there a lot of fed workers on @bsky.app I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I can't imagine the shit you are going through right now Thanks for your service to our country

Make this go viral! Her husband’s life was put at risk by the Signal texts.

“Should the precise timing of an imminent surprise attack be classified as secret?” kinda answers itself.

Let it begin.

"Any security professional - military, government, other than otherwise - would be fired on the spot for this type of conduct and criminally prosecuted for being so reckless with this kind of information." - Pete Hegseth on Hillary Clinton in 2016

Ossoff: This is what happens when you have Fox News personalities cosplaying as government officials.

Wow- Himes during a heated exchange w/Will Cain on Fox: "I'm not gonna listen to to you tell me that this about a partisan advantage...it is by the grace of God that we don't have dead pilots right now...it makes me want to throw up to hear you turn this into a partisan issue. You just need to stop"

“Could you state your full name for the record?” TULSI GABBARD: “I'm not familiar with that.” “Is your current job title Director of National Intelligence? GABBARD: “I have not read my official stationery yet.” “Did Cruella de Vil OK stealing her hairstyle?” GABBARD: “She stole it from me.”

Valid question...

Schoolchildren are routinely slaughtered by AR-15s. Hundreds die. [*crickets* "Thoughts and prayers" *crickets*] A couple unoccupied cars are set on fire. No one is hurt. ["THIS HORROR WILL NOT STAND!!! We MUST act to STOP it from ever happening AGAIN!!!!" We will pass new LAWS BANNING IT!!!]

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

I've started to realize that Anne Frank and her family wouldn't have been safe around a lot of people I know and loved and once respected. That's not something you get over.

If I had an egg for every travel advisory issued against the United States by other countries in the past month, I'd be a very rich woman.

Every time I’m asked: So do you like going into the office? Me: Does Sisyphus like his rock?
