"Springsteen didn’t pull any punches — no references to 'our national divide' or 'both sides' or 'polarization.' He was direct, angry and precise in his language." - @guitarwatson.bsky.social www.democracydocket.com/opinion/no-n...

Paying to replace the signs is surely waste, fraud and abuse.

This kind of journalism has never been more important. It needs shared widely.👏 60 Minutes cataloguing the state-sponsored extortion of the legal system under Trump. Virtually no-one would go on camera such is the climate of fear. Government by The Mob, exposed.

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises. But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up. It's up to us to demand something better.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

We didn’t swear an oath to serve a wannabe dictator. We swore it to the Constitution—and we damn well remember what that means. Some of us still take that oath seriously. JOIN US ➡️ votevets.org

A fight is BREWING: Commander of U.S. European Command warns—don’t pull Troops from Europe. It puts allies at risk. Meanwhile, Trump’s tanking the economy and silencing anyone who pushes back. So who’s Trump really siding with—our military, or Putin? Seems pretty damn clear.

According to several news reports, many of NOAA's websites will go offline beginning at midnight due to the cancelation of a cloud service contract. The main site, NOAA.gov, is expected to be unaffected.  yubanet.com/usa/noaa-web...

Seriously -- he's broadcasting plans to violate state and federal election laws, in support of his quest to sway a state Supreme Court election. Arrest him. Yes, even though he's really rich. Arrest him.

What the actual fuck:

Good question. Why DOES Pete Hegseth have a Russian phone number? 🤨

“Illegal immigrant” was their first success. Now comes “Illegal boycott” “Illegal protest” “Illegal votes” “Illegal posts” Until the “illegal” is you. #3E

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show: They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.” Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag… Made in Nicaragua. They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee. Legendary.

Take a moment to read this absolute artifact of a 1999 Salon piece about Elon Musk. All the pieces are there: high confidence, low experience, inept results, lucky bailout, and the fawning coverage that made it all happen while building the blueprint for a generation of Silicon Valley bullshit.

The most significant impacts in this article concern ongoing staff firings and probable principle facilities closings. This includes the NWS vital nerve center for forecasting, the National Centers for Environmental Prediction and its Weather Prediction Center. buffalonews.com/news/local/w...

Trudeau: "I want to speak first directly to the American people. We don't want this. We want to work with you as a friend and ally. We don't want to see you hurt either. But your government has chosen to do this to you. As of this morning, markets are down and inflation is set to rise dramatically."

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

As President Donald Trump orders federal workers to return to the office, he spent the fourth straight day at home at his Mar-a-Lago resort.

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

Congress will soon vote on a MAGA bill that could prevent millions of eligible American citizens from voting It includes a marriage penalty that prevents married women who changed their names from using their birth certificate or driver’s license as documents to register blavity.com/what-is-the-...

404 Media has obtained audio of Elon Musk's AI ally and the manager of government coders, in which an employee refers to one of his plans as "illegal." 🔗 www.404media.co/things-are-g...

I just narrated some sort of weird fan fiction where Melania Trump and Jill Biden teamed up as spies to thwart some sort of non-descript threat against the country. It is not the strangest thing I've ever narrated. But it's close. BTW, I say things for money. Check the link in my profile.

NPR has identified dozens of Jan. 6 rioters with prior convictions or pending charges for crimes including rape, sexual abuse of a minor, domestic violence, manslaughter, production of child sexual abuse material and drug trafficking. www.npr.org/2025/01/30/n... by @tomdreisbach.bsky.social

Elon Musk, who has not been elected or officially appointed to any office, successfully pushed the FAA Administrator to resign 9 days ago.

This is what supporters of charter schools and vouchers don't tell you: because those schools aren't required to admit physically or learning disabled students, or ESL students, their "improved test scores" and whatnot are completely juiced—and it defunds the schools where disabled kids DO go.

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway. And those who warned America about it were right.

GOP extremists want House Democrats to raise the debt ceiling so that House Republicans can lower the amount of your Social Security check. Hard pass.
