The number of manifestly psychologically unwell people in the highest levels of this administration should be unsettling to the world.

"We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back." ~ Carl Sagan

Senator Padilla of California was forcibly removed for asking a question during a DHS press conference. NONE OF US ARE SAFE.

Just a reminder… There were more people arrested in LA after the Lakers won the championship in 2020 than have been during the ongoing protests there. The president did not order the military into LA in 2020. It was the same one then as it is now. 🤔

The fact that this is barely an exaggeration...

Space Pride! #pride #pride2025

very notable how Fox turns every antisemitic act of violence into a way to push for Ilhan Omar's expulsion from Congress

For Handmaid’s Tale fans.

Nigel Farage is a political fraud ‘cosplaying’ as working-class champion, but he's really only interested in cosying up to American billionaires.

Trump Is Building a Global Gulag for Immigrants Captured by ICE The U.S. has reportedly explored, sought, or struck deals w/ ~20 countries, including those @StateDept has cited for human rights abuses. My latest w/ @jonahmv.bsky.social for @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2025/05/15/t...

#NoLiesDetected Bravo @raskin.house.gov Can you name 1 person in the WH or the #TrumpRegine working FOR We the People & not themselves? The DOJ is now the DOI-Dept of INJUSTICE #KKKashPatel has fired dozens of high level agents The DOD, HHS, DHS, Pentagon, EPA, DOE, SSA etc? ALL CORRUPT-

Speaker Mike Johnson should hold up a sign "Will starve hungry people in the name of Jesus." That is what he is doing!

Happy pride month ❤️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Millions of people are worried about paying their rent, feeding their kids or losing vital disability benefits. If the government cared about people's security, it would reverse cruel cuts, end child poverty and pursue an agenda for peace. Let's fund welfare, not warfare.

😅😂🤣 Eat the Rich...😉

Penzey's spices are excellent! And they support democracy!

They know they're going to crash the economy, cash in, auction off all of our public assets and attack us with our own military.

Americans think nothing bad will ever happen to them when something new and horrible happens to them every single day in the form of executive orders, court rulings, and laws passed.

A thing about growing up poor, or even middle class in America, is that there comes a time when you look back on bad memories or traumatic experiences you saw and realize how many of them had something to do with a lack of money

Curious how this post omits the words “Russia” and “Putin.”

Seems like that orange fu<k- whistle has more than one "weave".

What are you doing on June 14? It's a Saturday

Crockett: It is time for Republicans to start calling him out and start questioning his mental acuity, and whether or not he is equipped to serve mentally. We know when it comes down to his criminality, he is not qualified to serve, but this is just absolutely deplorable.

No one can plan for anything. I'm paying off all my debts and hoping we still have a democracy after he is gone.

Crockett: They have nothing to show for it except for those top earners being able to have their next trophy wife or buy their next yacht, or get their next plane, that doesn't work for me. And that obviously does not work for my constituents.

Or 1618 Prague…

When he showed up to an immigration meeting in Memphis, Kasper Eriksen thought he was on the verge of becoming a citizen. Then ICE arrested the Mississippi father of four, not even giving him a chance to say goodbye to his wife, whisking him away to a prison. @nickjudin.bsky.social reports:

Some shit never changes. He barely bothered to turn up as an MEP, barely bothers now he’s an MP. Can’t say he’s not consistent when it comes to lying, misuse of power, using his status to collab with the far right and his shameless dedication to conning taxpayers out of their hard earned money.

Lots of talk about the Luigi #Mangione trial collapsing through serial Law Enforcement incompetence. Police failed to Mirandize at the correct time, conducted search of backpack without warrant, body cam intentionally switched off, and misconduct by prosecutors.

Just finished a fun gossipy read until about halfway in, and then Zuckerberg sells out to China, turns a blind eye to Myanmar, and ignores his toxic work environment. You’re gonna want to lean away from Sheryl Sandburg. bookshop.org/p/books/care...

But wait!....there's always lower.

Probably wants bigger deficits and more hits to the peasants.
