Minnesota Star Tribune debunks each of the lies and conspiracies posted on social media from Mike Lee, Elon Musk, and all the other usual suspects who do this EVERY time. www.startribune.com/fact-check-d...

NEW: He didn’t like Pelosi. He didn’t like Tim Walz. He didn’t like Joe Biden. He DID like Alex Jones. He DID vote for Trump. He would be offended if anyone thought he was a democrat. wapo.st/45UNM4e

Voice of America’s Farsi-language broadcast, dismantled under Trump and DOGE, was abruptly reactivated today, recalling dozens of staff from paid leave as tensions between Israel and Iran escalated.

Possible to start to tell a unified story: "Trump is personally too old, crazy, and confused to run things, so at any given time the question is which co-president is in charge. At first it was Musk, & we got the crazy chaotic DOGE era. Then Navarro: a trade war that crashed markets. Now Miller..."

one can only hope- but I fear Elon will steal the mid-terms for the Repubs :(

LAPD when they think nobody is watching

Eddie Martin in shambles

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

@kenwhite.bsky.social is it usually a good sign when a judge writes about you and your client: "From this course of conduct, it is hard to come to any conclusion other than that Defendants invite lack of clarity as a means of evasion." ?

“A construction worker in south Alabama says he was forcibly detained Wednesday by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who claimed his proof of U.S. citizenship was fake.” www.al.com/news/mobile/...

The cruelty is the point.

Perhaps CNN is figuring out why no one is watching CNN. It's just one big informercial occasionally interrupted by Scott Jennings lying.

Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

Legal question #LawSky : can congress limit the inherent power of the courts like this? If the bill passes, could someone sue to have this part of the law overturned? Thanks!

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

WHAT?!? @nicollewallace.bsky.social

So let's all just be REAL clear about this-- Biden in office, the LARGE MAJORITY of the domestic investments from CHIPS, IRA, etc, etc went to red states. So a Democrat in office, red states prospered. This is BEYOND offensive. BLATANT financial warfare on blue states.

Republicans are right now in the process of making sure that kids like this don't have the medical care they need to survive-- all to offset a tax cut for people like Trump and Musk. But sure, party of family values. Got it. h/t @caringacross.org

Don't miss the scariest committee hearing of the year.

President Trump's tariffs are having serious consequences on small businesses across the United States. The Catoctin Creek Distilling Co.'s co-owners talk about their experiences dealing with tariffs.

Tommy Tuberville says his wife's homestead exemption established his residency in Alabama, but election records show both of them voted in Florida after that. And that's only the beginning.

Chutzpah is lying to dodge the draft and then asking the Army to celebrate your damn birthday.

“I don’t have a way to pay all the people who are helping us. People from other states have called us, and we don’t have a way to pay them; we can only thank them." floridaphoenix.com/2025/04/17/u...

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Van Hollen: I should also just say, I mentioned the fake margarita, they actually wanted to have the meeting by the side of the pool in the hotel. They want to create this appearance that life was just lovely for Kilmar. Which of course is a big, fat lie.

Make it make sense

this was a very difficult article to read with haunting photographs… truly evil things are happening

So we all agree, No to Whitmer and Newsom 2028? And Shawn Fain? He and his “Ross Perot was right,” t-shirt (Made in China I’m sure) can fork alllll the way off too.
