These covers from 2021 and today speak volumes. Biden inherited chaos and left stability, only for Americans to hand it back to the clown who caused all the issues to start with. Bravo, America. 🙄

Goggles: noun. The lens through which we see everyday life. What goggles do you wear & where did they come from? Do you like your goggles? Do you have more than one pair?

Which Hayao Miyazaki movie is your favorite & why?

For a second I thought @RobertKennedyJr was the only person of color in Trump’s new cabinet.

Nothing says Chinese disinfo operation like cutting off your multi billion dollar website over a ban that isn't being enforced and blasting "don't worry, Trump will save us" at hundreds of millions of people

An information dark age is upon us. I’m logging off | Stewart Lee | The Guardian "We can’t let Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos reshape our reality, and have to encourage every friend, relative, celebrity and institution to disconnect from them." www.theguardian.com/media/2025/j...

The real conversation everyone should be having about social media is who controls the data. It shouldn't be a corporation that has ownership over your identity, words, ideas, voice, who you see or who you talk to. Data belongs to you, it is created by you and should be owned by only you.

The Congressional GOP and the Supreme Court have truly created a monster: Trump knows he faces zero accountability from impeachment or prosecution, and now doesn’t even have to face voters again. It’s going to be kleptocracy on an unprecedented scale.

In case anyone had any doubt, Trump's pick for Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is cruel and sadistic piece of shit. 😳👇

Also feel the need to say that this is real and happened today

This is who Stephen Miller is. 😳👇

Trump hanging his supporters in DC out to dry in favor of an exclusive inauguration where only his inner circle and top donors can attend is the perfect metaphor for this administration and today’s GOP.

😞

HISTORY IS EVERYTHING Everyone needs to see this! Trump’s mass deportation, mirrors Operation Wetback: 🔘 Mass deport undocumented immigrants & anyone who “might” be 🔘 Trigger a labor shortage, restart legal immigration 🔘 Claim victory on the border, GOP wins more elections We’re being played!

In 2017, Snoop Dogg asked who the first "Uncle Tom" performing at Donald Trump's inauguration was gonna be. Last night, Snoop performed at the Crypto Ball.

Men who who tried to revive their “masculine energy” by bending the knee…

TODAY’S EPISODE OF: WE FU*CKING WARNED YOU They voted for Trump and now they’re worried that his potential cuts to education will hit them hardest. 📌 The 15 states most dependent on federal school funding in 2022 voted Trump in 2024.

I can’t say I have seen this one before

Americans aren't aware how much the illusion of normalcy persists under an authoritarian regime. There's no washed-out camera filter that kicks in. Everyone's not goosestepping everywhere they go. You can have a radically unfree society while most people, most of the time, just go about their lives.

I’m considering spending Inauguration Day posting images and video of the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol. I feel like that would be one way to acknowledge the obscenity—and that’s the _only_ word for it: obscenity—of Trump being inaugurated after inciting an armed rebellion against America.

I don’t know who did this, but thank you 🤣

South Korea detained their insurrectionist leader within a month, it took us 2.5 years to indict Trump. Never did arrest him, or even put him on trial. Great job, Merrick Garland.

As SECDEF, Pete Hegseth will likely enforce Project 2025’s radical far-right agenda—purging senior leaders, installing Trump loyalists, and politicizing the military. In his hearing, he wouldn’t even commit to opposing unconstitutional orders. It doesn’t get much worse than this.

Not long ago a multi-billion dollar media company would stand tall and sue the FCC. Now they cower in fear and pay protection money. Democracy Docket will not bow down, it does not compromise, it will never obey. Become a paying member today to support its work. www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

Chris Hayes for the quote of the day: "We right now are under the thumb of desperately thin-skinned, thirsty weirdos."

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump’s choice to lead the nation’s health agencies, formally asked the FDA to revoke the authorization of all Covid vaccines during a deadly phase of the pandemic when thousands of Americans were still dying every week. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/17/h...

Feels Like A Funeral Rather Than An Inauguration ☠️

So … bribery

Welcome to Hungary

So just to be clear these Paramount Executives are discussing paying money to the incoming president of the united states with the specific intention of influencing an official action of the government?

What the actual fuck?!??! “…and guys, I’m just telling you right now, that’s how you do it. You go so young, they don’t know any better, than to go with you. That’s it.” -Mark Hartman Sugar Creek Baptist Church, Sugar Land, Texas

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and . . . then retreated back into their money . . . and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Ohio’s newly appointed Republican Senator.

As DHS secretary Kristi Noem will be responsible for FEMA After a record breaking flood, As governor, she left her own constituents, high and dry w/out National Guard assistance, but she did send the national guard to the Texas Mexico border 1200 miles away at taxpayers expense—5 times!

2009 That's when the minimum wage was set at $7.25 per hour It's $15,080 per year-which is poverty level Why do we let billionaire employers get away with paying such low salaries So their workers qualify for public assistance Which means we are subsidizing their companies While they make bank

These broligarchs worth nearly $1T will be seated on the dais at the inauguration. Musk and Zuckerberg have suspended social media factchecking on their platforms, Bezos is censoring content offensive to Trump at the Washington Post. Biden is right.

Read: I failed but at least it's pretty when your taxpayer dollars blow up. 🙄

Yikes!!!😬🥴
