Hey everyone, just a reminder: A little more than a week ago, a Republican terrorist killed two people and injured two more in an effort to kill enough democrats to capture the Minnesota Legislature

This operation - which cost hundreds of millions of taxpayer money, has led us to the brink of regional war, and pushed Iran and Russian closer together - was apparently a total failure. And Trump is now actively hiding this from the public.

In a functioning democracy, Emil Bove would be closer to contempt proceedings and disbarment than he is to a life-tenured seat on a federal appeals court ballsandstrikes.org/nominations/...

These are two very similar stories of Mississippi families torn apart by ICE. But Kerlin Moreno-Orellana's story has gotten way less attention on social media than Kasper Eriksen's did, and thus his family's GoFundMe is getting WAY less support. It's a big disparity.

THIS ALL DAY LONG AND TWICE ON SUNDAY Pls read the rest of this thread, which explains clearly & concisely why identity IS a kitchen-table issue No idea which antiquarian Dem got to McBride, but as a doc who treats trans kids I can tell you that bodily autonomy is a BFD & she's full of shit

This is just the simple truth. The Middle East can be complicated, or at least not simple, but this isn't. You want people to support you? Don't do things things people find unfathomably abhorrent. (I will say that one thing that has sped this along is the internet. It was easier to lie, once).

Sick of right-wing religious nuts blaming others when the laws they push are applied to them Abortion is the only way to end an ectopic pregnancy, which inevitably kills the mother And this malignant idiot knew this, & pushed a complete abortion ban because she didn't care if other women died

"[W]earables are key to the MAHA agenda...every American [using one[ within 4 years." So the MAHA/MAGA vision is total surveillance down to your personal biorhythms, and if you deviate you're not "healthy". Eugenics and tech going hand in hand w/ total survellance. Will Palantir hold that data? ‪

this is an insane, bizarre state of affairs in which no one knows who's at war with whom, all stemming from the fact that the president is a brain-damaged moron who doesn't know how anything works and lies constantly, which the news refuses to relay and must somehow write around

This is a blockbuster of a letter. Bove, Ensign, and others appear to have committed misconduct by turning compliance with court orders into a shell game. Judges Katsas and Rao should also have to answer some questions regarding their ongoing "administrative stay" of contempt proceedings in DC.

Remember, this new normal -- in which gangs of masked armed gunmen are causing chaos in the streets, pulling weapons and assaulting innocent people, and no one can say if they're crooks or cops -- was all sold to Americans as a way to make us feel safer.

If you’re dumb enough to watch Fox News you’re dumb enough to vote for Donald Trump. It’s as simple as that. Thinking you have to find appeasement with ignorance is already a failed strategy. You don’t lean into their bigotry, you f’n educate them if you wanna save USA.

Air conditioning is an absolutely vital life-saving technology on a swiftly-warming planet, and people who claim it's somehow more shameful to cool a home than it is to heat one are idiots. I wrote this a few years ago and still stand by it: foreignpolicy.com/2022/01/16/c...

Pretty sure these ads are crafted to reflect Silicon Valley's profound contempt for people who use their AI tools Worse, I'm not sure the ads aren't accurate Every time I see someone advocating for AI, they're uninformed, thoughtless, & deeply lazy (no matter how much money they have)

I encourage everyone to actually read the dissent. The description of what this government is doing should shock anyone with a conscience. It is unfathomably cruel, indeed sadistic. And yes, this is being enabled by the highest court in the nation.

I am surrounded by people who are outsourcing their own thinking to ChatGPT and they are quickly and obviously becoming dependent on it for even the most banal tasks. Once again, the "figuring it out" is the important part. Yes, you can use a crane to lift weights but you will not get stronger

Young New Yorkers of every class, race and gender. This is truly your time. Come out tomorrow like you never have before and you'll have a much better shot of a future in this city if it's not run by Cuomo. You are needed to counter what Gen X and older are going to do.

We're out of practice at publicly rejecting those who engage in this, esp. professionally. Americans chanting, "Shame!" is a start. We need to take the next step & uninvite them & their families from—or throw them out of—the potluck. Social rejection of evil behavior is a powerful corrective.
