We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Idiocracy was a documentary

Imagine being too far-right and Nazi-like for the French far-right: "French far-right leader cancels US speech after ex Trump aide Bannon appeared to make 'Nazi gesture'"

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

The Trump administration blocked key parts of the federal government’s apparatus for funding biomedical research, effectively halting progress on much of the country’s future work on illnesses like cancer and addiction despite a federal judge’s order to release grant money.

"We [the Executive Branch] *are* the federal law" is a dark horse candidate for most Hitlerian Trump quote from 2025. Surprised this did not get even more media coverage and provoke even more outrage. The literal, actual truth, of course, is that the federal government has three co-equal branches.

Um. “The I-Team also reached out Thursday afternoon to the alleged victim, who we’re not naming, but who is not the congressman’s wife.”

For those at the back…

WaPo Page One: “If you’re going to just yell at me, that’s not going to be an effective town hall,” McCormick said .. “But we’re pissed!” a woman shouted. #GA07 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

There’s something happening in this country.

A little substance about what the FBI does & historical context to help you articulate just how dangerous the confirmation of Kash Patel is. joycevance.substack.com/p/kash-patel...

Remember when America had friends? Like a month ago?

FEMA staff bracing for major cuts from President Convicted Felon. Hey #Florida, you ready for life without that agency? www.eenews.net/articles/fem...

@cbs Thank You!!!

I never had much use for James Carville but Bravo!! for taking on Sean Hannity. You were spot on and you pinned him to the wall. Brilliant 👌.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Never forget.

Heads up everyone Bird flu confirmed in rats for first time, USDA reports I am grateful this was reported on by the media and that the GOP and WhiteHouse had not demanded that it be not reported. www.cbsnews.com/news/bird-fl...

And….. that’s why we are here

Truth

This Game of Thrones quote feels especially poignant: “Any man who must say 'I am the king' is no true king.”

A whooping 83% of Americans oppose Trump pardoning violent J6 rioters. EIGHTY-THREE PERCENT!!!

youtube.com/shorts/WfLto... This is our pep talk from Former President Biden!!

The Senate just voted on a simple idea: If you make $1 BILLION in a year, you don't deserve a tax handout. Democrats voted yes. Republicans voted no. Republicans are planning huge tax cuts for the rich, but they’re not the ones who need a break — working people do.

It's past midnight, and Senate Republicans are voting NO against every Democratic-led amendment to PROTECT HEALTH CARE for our families. Pay close attention: Republicans are working to push kids off Medicaid to pass MORE tax cuts for billionaires.

Musk: “If he loses I’m fucked” WHY would Musk say that? WHAT has he done? Watch it while available because it keeps getting stopped. Watch the second video with Musk and Tucker. Please repost!🙏 www.threads.net/@cloudyinvas...

Can we have a few more Elizabeth Warrens, please?

Billionaires make up 0.000009% of the population in the US. I did the math. There are more students at the high school where I teach than there are billionaires in the US. Why should we care what they say?

I think I accidentally went through a wormhole or something to a parallel universe where some goofy New York real estate developer who is known for being a pervert and not paying his bills has somehow taken charge of the United States and, no offense you guys, but I want to go back now.

In just 30 days, Trump has unleashed the deadliest policy shift in modern history. It’s estimated that these are projected to claim between 6.8 million and 8.84 million lives over the next 4 years. They are not speculation but grounded in historical precedent, expert analysis, and hard data. WTH

"Republicans let Trump get away with grabbing women by the private parts, committing crimes, inciting a violent insurrection, throwing our European allies under the bus & praising Putin." I bet they’re also willing to trade democracy for a Crown to put on the head of their Orange Lizard King.

Fun fact: Today is my 666th day on Bluesky. I've been having a devilishly good time since I've been here. To celebrate this sinister accomplishment, I have made a donation to Americans United for Separation of Church and State. Here's to the next 666 days! www.au.org

Denver Public Schools is taking the Trump administration to court in an effort to keep immigration enforcement away from schools locally and across the country.

The showy new piece, called “The Stars and the Cottonwood,” was inspired by the humble cottonwood tree, a key part of Colorado’s prairie ecosystem (and the source of those little fuzz balls that float through the city in the spring).
