Wow! I sure feel both freer and safer!

Man, the onion is on a roll

Whenever I see Dems claim they are out of power, there’s nothing they can do, I think of Brad Lander and how he escorted people to court while being comptroller and running for mayor. Do something or get the f out of the way so there can be more Brad Landers.

Generic versions of chemotherapy drugs used around the world have failed quality tests, putting cancer patients in more than 100 countries at risk of ineffective treatments and potentially fatal side effects. www.statnews.com/2025/06/25/g...

Gavi has played a role in vaccinating 1.1 billion children against diseae, and has saved 20 million lives. Gavi is instrumental in getting vaccinations to lower-resource countries, and providing money to buy vaccines and support for disease outbreaks. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

so much of our politics has been like this for so long that people don't even understand why it's wrong

Andrew Cuomo gets publicly humiliated. Bill Clinton learns his endorsement is worth less than dogshit. What a great time to be a hater. A golden age.

James: His critics said that he should wait his turn. His critics said that he did not have the experience. His critics said they did not have the right name. Well, now all of them know his god damn name.

Normalize their goal is to normalize

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Honestly, this made me laugh out loud (maybe it was more of a horrified cynical rattle). Points for honesty!

A secret, never-mentioned fact is that the people who voted for Zohran are also taxpayers. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

some day the consultants will learn it wasn’t the medium it was the message

"Kamala Harris was a deeply unpopular candidate who clung to wildly unpopular policies, kissed up to Republicans and treated her base like garbage" I just need to hear some else saying this to keep my sanity

NEW: Records of 911 and EMS responses to calls from ICE detention centers show a surge in emergencies the facilities are unequipped to handle, including suicide attempts, severe pregnancy complications, and alleged sexual assaults by staff. This is by @dmehro.bsky.social and @dell.bsky.social

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

Huge news today: Big Balls Out. Also, Big Balls Out.

Just a reminder if Cuomo loses, the corporate Democrats nationwide are going to go even harder against everyone demanding actual material change in place of theater and technocratic nothing. Corporate dems are in the fight for their life and they will do everything in their power to hold power.

another shining example of the new transparency in government touted by DOGE

"Many of Kennedy's appointees do not have significant experience studying microbiology, epidemiology or immunology. In particular, some lack experience studying new technologies such as mRNA vaccines, and may even have a preconceived bias against them.” www.statnews.com/2025/06/23/b...

The FDA is literally tasked with overseeing the safety of all food, drugs, medical devices, & cosmetics, as well as “preventing the introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases.” They regulate our safety from cell phones, to sperm donation, to condoms, to domestic animals to lasers

As of tomorrow, cellphones will be illegal for kids in Texas schools But we couldn’t require licenses for guns so fewer of them will die there All the sad farewell voicemails from shooting victims made people upset, so obviously the solution is to take the phones

"ICE’s data infrastructure makes misidentification permanent. Officers are supposed to document citizenship investigations, but they aren’t required to update a person’s status in ICE databases, even after confirming U.S. citizenship." The numbers are from 2015-2020

Lol, “hey guys that I just started an unprovoked trade war against, do me a solid and stop the guys I just bombed unprovoked from disrupting global trade (that’s my job).”

Andrew Cuomo promising New York will hire 5,000 more cops in order to reclaim the Candy Crush World Title

imagine writing this completely uncritically as if it’s a normal thing for a government official to say

look at what democrats have mustered against zohran mamdani vs. what they've mustered against trump. they've decided who their enemy is and it's the democratic majority.

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

Anyone who advocates taking photos of women in ladies toilets without their consent has no right to describe themselves as “feminist” or as caring about women’s safety.

We are posting this placard at all of our offices and asking our union contract farms to post as well. We encourage our friends to put up similar placards at their business as immigration agents do not have the right to go on private property without permission.

The fact you said "something bad" instead of what that flat bastard did tells all.

Community: Can we have safe streets for our kids? Police: Best we can do is steal their bicycles.

Aye, If you are taking any SSRIs: Fluoxetine (Prozac), Sertraline (Zoloft), Paroxetine (Paxil), Citalopram (Celexa), & Escitalopram (Lexapro)… You have an increased risk of heat rash, heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. Especially if you are neurodivergent & struggle with Interoception.

i appreciate that this scared exurban dipshit thing is not just american

At some point, Republicans are going to learn what the Department of Energy does, right? Like... they have to learn at some point that it runs nuclear reactors and doesn't operate oil fields or whatever.
