The same people demanding you present a photo ID to vote are perfectly fine with letting you be arrested, handcuffed & thrown into a van by armed men wearing plain clothes, face masks & presenting no identification of any sort.

Sure, it's in poor taste to revel in the medical misfortune of a public figure but what's in worse taste is using your power to terrorize, abuse, & kidnap thousands, if not millions, of people without any legal or moral justification while playing GI Jane cosplay & lying to the world about it, so...

From a week and a half ago: “As of Monday, the model shows, about 96,000 adults and 200,000 children have died because of the administration’s cutbacks to funding for aid groups and support organizations. The overall death count grows by 103 people an hour.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

“We cannot allow Iraq to have weapons of mass destruction!” “We cannot allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon!” Same shit, different generation of 18-22 year olds.

This is possibly the most disastrous thing Trump has tweeted. The demand for “unconditional surrender” from a country we are not yet at war with locks US policy in an unachievable dead end. I have FOUR chapters of my book devoted to that phase and how it prolonged WWII in Germany and Japan.

People will tell you that the level of confidence of mediocre white men who mansplain should be studied in a lab. I think it needs to go further. Science needs to find a way to bottle that confidence and utilize the energy to help failing power grids.

The self-own speaks for itself.

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Kai has successfully climbed to the top of the cat tree and is enjoying the view.

Harlowe and Kai update, they are playing!

Your semi-regular reminder that @altnps.bsky.social is 100% pure LARPing BlueAnon grift that's unsourced theft of other reporting at best and active disinformation at worst and you should not give them a single bit of attention

Holy crap. The US-UK trade deal is a blank sheet of paper and only Trump signed it. (Genuine screen grab).

This is an amazing photo. Also what I'm learning is the meerkatting is a tuxudo thing.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

Thanks to NPR for explaining that due to the ancient, mysterious culture of Persia, Iranians "don't like to be attacked" npr.org/2025/06/16/n...

It's Pride Month! Quote this with a queer character. 🏳️‍🌈

Apparently cops saw Vance Boelter sitting in his faux cop car near another Minnesota state rep’s home an hour before he murdered Melissa Hortman and her husband and those cops just let him go. www.cnn.com/us/live-news...

This is continued journalistic malpractice from the @startribune.com normalizing a violent white male suspect. He owned a private security company called Praetorian Guard, traveled overseas to preach against abortion and LGBTQ+ people, and attended a bible college that preaches "violent prayer."

Don’t send me an unsolicited picture of your peewee cocktapus unless you want me to… A: find your mom’s Facebook B: find a picture she uploaded of you reminiscing about what a nice young man you were C: badly photoshop that into a locket D: convince you I’m your daughter. Happy Father’s Day Daddy.

It’s only terrorism if it’s a CEO or a Republican. 🙄

This is a real sentence in the Atlantic.

Let’s be friends!

Fellas, it's been good to know ya

political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

Where was he radicalized, well... A “very caring, loving person,” doesn't murder 2 people and attempt to murder 3 more, (he should face charges for the daughter too), but the Trump supporter and Alex Jones’s conspiracy-filled Infowars site would and did. wapo.st/45UNM4e

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.
