🚨 SCOOP 🚨 DHS is asking IRS to locate **7 MILLION** suspected undocumented immigrants using confidential tax records. It’s a massive escalation by DHS to use the tax system for mass deportation. IRS officials are aghast, say it’s likely illegal.

Huh, weird

Better a pig than a gen A.I. user!

To bring a little joy to your timeline, here's a picture of Krysten Ritter holding a signed copy of Shadow the Hedgehog for the Nintendo GameCube that was taken last night somehow.

Insane that I paid more in taxes last year than Elon Musk, and the IRS said ”you’re short $948, actually”

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

I built a Playstacean!

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

yeah bitch

BREAKING: @indivisible.org calls on Senator Schumer to step down as minority leader after voting in favor of GOP funding bill. “Our democracy is in danger. The path ahead will be hard. Indivisibles are ready to do the work - it’s time for a Senate Democratic Leader who is too.” Full statement:

I say again, I will vote for any Dem who credibly makes “I am going to do whatever I can to make every day that I’m in office the worst day of every Republican’s life” their mission and at least right now I don’t care if in every other respect they’re the most frustrating centrist lib ever

it must have been so fun to play Danny on the West Wing and just shamelessly flirt with Allison Janney all day

the fact that people are being disappeared in the name of ""preventing antisemitism"" by a christian nationalist administration is making me nauseated and horrified in ways i cant even begin to explain

once again I have to invoke the specter of Ronald Wilson Reagan, who is in Hell now. under Reagan, the term "government spending" was effectively demonized. fuck you, Reaganite ghouls! spending money, on its people and their needs, is the function of government! public works are good! say so!

happy women’s day

Well this is wonderful and everyone should see it.

Ylfa Snorgelsson is such a strong argument that Emily Axford should write a novel someday

Late to complaining but where were all the nominations Challengers so richly deserved?

As a country I’m not sure we talk enough about how great Sleeping with Other People (movie) is.

Had to try Zoot Suit Samus

I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

This is the closest I've ever seen a Wikipedia entry come to a poem: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margare...

This is all a good reminder that, “no help, no votes until the criminal conduct stops” is neither a big ask nor a politically perilous one.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Maybe Happy Ending was beautiful

jesus christ man obviously i know you're pagliacci, i was just tryin to fuckin gas you up a b— oh come on don't cry

Dracula is never rebooted, merely revamped
