The reactions to the Minnesota shooting have been unhinged and insane. There is no room for violence…. It only gets worse: www.youtube.com/watch?v=POY9...

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

“It was one of the most monumentally unselfish things one group of people ever did for another.” - Andy Rooney, on #Dday @60minutes.bsky.social @cbsnews.com

So let me get this straight, we finally get an American pope, and some of the America first crowd is mad because he cares about the poor and immigrants. Am i missing something here?

CBS on the cardinals: "One thing we know they're not doing is checking Instagram because their devices have all been confiscated. I believe the kids call it rawdogging."

As I posted earlier, arresting judges is usually an authoritarian endgame move. The arrest of Judge Dugan here in the US is happening while courts are still pushing back, which is deeply concerning. I dig into the data & implications in my latest.

Over Trudeau’s 10 years in office, the Liberals mastered the art of changeless change. His government seduced progressive voters by appearing to disrupt business-as-usual, while serving the elite by defending wealth and power. A decade of faux progressivism: a 🧵

The pro life party is summarily sentencing toddlers to exile

Looking forward to the Fox News goons taking that 2-year old down a few pegs. “That infant is no angel, despite what the libs want you to believe. Did you know she cried a lot? I heard she’s not even potty trained. Disgusting.”

Spontaneous applause for Ukrainian President Zelenskyi at the funeral of Pope today in Rome. russia wants to convince us that we're all alone in this fight. We are not. Video: Acyn Twitter.

12 to 15 hours?!?!?

Possibly the best interview of all-time

1. Jose Hermosillo is US citizen who was wrongly jailed in an immigration detention facility for 10 days The administration says he "turned himself in" to the Border Patrol and told them he was a Mexican who crossed the border illegally. I interviewed Hermosillo. He says the government is lying.

Ok, this site finally has the juice, this is the Twitter experience all right. 😭😭😭

Amazing how they interpreted getting 49% of the vote as “we have a mandate to roll back the civil rights act”

It's a high bar, but this from @radleybalko.bsky.social might be one of the most fucked up things I've read in the new Trump era. For context, this TX lawyer had just had an informal conversation with a family caught up in ICE raids. Seriously. Read this. radleybalko.substack.com/p/the-courag...

Because of the crisis of masculinity in this country and the drop in testosterone and sperm count RFK Jr. is talking about I don’t think people realize that you’re not a real man unless you regale co-workers about your bowel movements to establish dominance. It’s a man thing.

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

As others have noted, if you’re not seeing this “pro-natalism” creepiness through the lens of the white nationalist Fourteen Words, you’re missing the point.

Jake Tapper: "One 60 Minutes source tells me, 'The lawsuit was baseless. Bill Owens wouldn't apologize. He wouldn't bend. He fought for the broadcast and for independent journalism and that cost him his job. It's shameful.'"

Wow turns out government had a lot of great little programs that did good things.

We tried to tell everybody... it was right there in print and they're doing it all.

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Before I go into today's dystopian nightmare, let's take a minute to bring down your blood pressure. Here is one of my favorite creatures, the #RedPanda. Enjoy. #nature #animals

Van Hollen: "If the president gets to shred the Constitution and ignore the Supreme Court in this case, it is a very short path to the president ignoring court orders in other cases. So every American should care about this."

Any Democratic politician who doesn't understand Nayib Bukele's grave offense against the sovereignty of the American people and constitutional order and say as much publicly should have no future in elected office. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/bukel...

The administration that called Canada “the 51st state” and said “we’re going to get” Greenland is suddenly cowed by sovereignty.

A lot of people would shrug their shoulders at this because of his religion, unless they can use the perpetrator to make a political point.

Someone tried to kill the highest-profile Jewish politician and his family on the first night of Passover. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Happy Moskva sinking anniversary to those who celebrate

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

If Jeff Bezos can send Katy Perry into space, he can pay a wealth tax so every American has debt-free healthcare.

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

On this day, 160 years ago, the Big Ten North clinched the first (and hopefully only) Civil War Playoff title. No Gatorade bath, however.
