Fuck AirBnB

OK, the report is now fully in major media. Media must get an extensive White House response; Congress must investigate (even if it's a minority report); DOJ and the FBI must investigate; the CIA must issue a report on what it knew about this and when.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

As a lawyer, Leibler knows that actions have consequences. A group of concerned Jews (the writer included) are in the process of lodging a complaint about Leibler’s tweet with the Commonwealth Human Rights Commission. #auspol #israelpalestine #protest

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The Daily Beast publishes a sourced allegation that Trump has been a Russian spy since 1987 and then—possibly under some form of threat—deletes it. But in an act of unusual heroism, it left it up long enough for Wayback Machine to capture it text. Here it is (please share):

New nomenclature...

On this week's Coffee Klatch, we discuss Trump's latest power grabs, the backlash to DOGE's mass firings, and how Democrats should give voice to the public's anger. Plus, former CFPB Director Rohit Chopra joins us to discuss DOGE's attack on the Bureau.

Heroin addict and roadkill enthusiast, RFK Jr. kills flu shot campaigns and cancels a major vaccination conference.

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

Even French far right politicians find this too awful - but have any of the Australian LNP attendees at the CPAC conference walked out, or even said a word, after a key note speaker gave a Nazi salute on stage?

“We have political leaders who insist that mining and forestry underwrite Australian prosperity. I will state it plainly. Those who believe this nonsense cannot be trusted with the wellbeing of future generations.” www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Good morning @tonyburkemp.bsky.social, we’re still waiting on some political intervention. Are you MAN enough!? 👇 I quote, “ … a few words from two journalists was enough to make Creative Australia’s leadership abandon Sabsabi … remains inexplicable.” www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

How did we manage to get so many unhinged men in positions of great power at the same time?

I can only operate on the assumption that this could happen 500 times a day and journalists would still describe it as a 'controversial hand gesture' Media: you are actively and unforgivably helping murderous racists and violent bigots when you do this. Stop, we are begging you

It’s been a long fucking day, I’m tired, and I misspoke. Let me rephrase it in a more correct way. Fuck Hakeem Jeffries and almost every other elected Democratic official for forcing me to be the one to get arrested instead of them doing their goddamn job and being leaders.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

What an absolute pleasure it is to listen to #SallySara on RN in the morning! Finally I can stay tuned to someone intelligent, respectful, who allows people to speak & listens. 🙏 Sally. #DonHenry today & #BenQuilty yesterday. We need more of the likes of these 3 EVERYWHERE 🦋

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

It looks as if Australia has joined the list of countries in which only government-approved artwork can be displayed -

What the fuck is going on with our national cultural institutions?? First Creative Australia and now the National Gallery betrays artists and their very raison d'etres with these utterly shameful acts of artistic censorship. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Trump's latest executive order puts independent agencies — including the FTC, SEC, and NLRB — under his direct control. It's a blatant attempt to shield his corporate donors and his own business from agencies that hold the powerful accountable. This is an alarming power-grab.

How in the fuck do we live in a country where when interest rates go up all the landlords rush to increase their rents and the media defends them doing so but when interest rates go down … oh never fucking mind #NewsCorpse

Bad News for Peter Dutton as RBA says it will cut interest rates. This confirms rates started going UP under the LNP & only started coming Down under Labor (like inflation). After their Trillion dollar Debt & no surplus for a decade, LNP are now economic hacks in every measure.

Hmmmmm is there REALLY a cost of living crisis? I 💭 🤔 👇 www.theguardian.com/education/20...
