This is an official plan for ethnic cleansing. If you supported Israel for the past 18 months or so under the assumption that this was about the hostages you were taken for a ride. If you still support Israel's assault on Gaza, you support ethnic cleansing. It's that simple.

Far right extremists, inspired by Trump per Whitmer herself, tried to kidnap her. Trump himself later suggested it was a fake plot and mocked it. He called her ‘that woman in Michigan’ and led a crowd that chanted ‘lock her up.’ Today Whitmer hugged him on the tarmac. This is why Dems lose. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽

Jesus CHRIST. Zuckerberg is a monster, my god.

in 25 years with ten trillion dollars invested AI will not be nearly as useful as the flare on the bottom of butt plugs

Sanders: Our conservative friends say, “We support the Constitution.” Well, if you support the Constitution, you don’t throw people into detention centers in El Salvador.

happy keto week to all my jews

Cocaine, other drugs will be exempted from new tariffs, Trump administration says

the three of us are having a conversation

Georgetown scholar Dr. Khan Suri, who was abducted by ICE, was refused food/water to break Ramadan fast, housed in a room without a bed, and issued *used* underwear. His child cried for days after he was taken and has since stopped speaking. ccrjustice.org/home/press-c...

blue sky is supreme because every time you post you get 100 school principals in the replies asking to see you in their office

The intermingling of fascist paramilitary and propaganda groups with the federal government is a literal hallmark of fascism. Do with that information what you will and really sit with what it means that a stochastic terrorist is now essentially deputized by the state to do as she pleases.

Is today’s market rise a “dead cat bounce”? harryshearer.com/le-shows/apr...

a lesson for every college, law firm, business, etc. — if these chodes demand you do something, your first response should be some form of "make me"

This is true, but I’m built different. Every breathe I take, I thank the faceless bureaucrat who made it possible 🫡 🫡 🫡

DOJ doesn't have the order which even if they did still wouldn't justify sending him to a prison in El Salvador. Again: if there's a group that doesn't get due process, then nobody actually has due process, because the government can always just say you're in the group without it.

truly one of the most disgusting ledes I’ve ever read in the NYT

This was a choice. Fine won by 8 pts in the district Mike Waltz won by 30 pts just 5 months ago. That the NYT frames it as “easily won” is a leading reason we are where we are. Headlines matter. Framing matters.

Goldman's Q1 estimates in recent weeks have gone from 1.8% .. .. to 1.6% .. to 1.3% .. to 1.0% .. to 0.6%.

Bitcoin bros love to say that bitcoin is green, actually—that it's helping advance renewable energy and making the grid cleaner and more sustainable It's not, and the authors of this thorough @thebulletin.org article brought the receipts thebulletin.org/2025/03/is-b...

What if the secret to winning elections is somehow Trump's syntax. We need a guy to say stuff like "But we're going to abolish billionaires and we'll be doing it very soon. They'll be paying very high taxes but it'll be very fair. And frankly they haven't paid taxes in a very long time"

I've seen this before.

Democrats Huddle To Decide How Best To Let Massive Republican Fuck-Up Slip Through Fingers

Wow the exact thing genAI creators intended, for their users to become psychologically dependent and chemically addicted to their product, is happening, who could have seen this coming futurism.com/the-byte/cha...

Right, they don't want to hide their animus to win litigation, they want to trumpet their animus and defy the courts

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

So look at that. DOGE has cost the US Treasury fucking half a trillion dollars. HALF A TRILLION DOLLARS. This is your cost savings.

RFK Jr & Bondi need to be asked why legal proceedings haven't been brought against this fake government website and when they inevitably refuse to do it, impeachment articles should be introduced. (If you're going to reply "but it won't succeed," go sit at the kids table and let the grownups talk.)

In that sense, AI will be no different from the Industrial Revolution: if the masses want to receive any of the economic benefits from new technology, rather than have it used as a tool to extract more from us, we will need to use collective action to force redistribution.

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media. But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

Keep playing the access journalism game, folks.

Tesla has recalled... every single Cybertruck. Every one they've ever sold. For a hardware issue www.carscoops.com/2025/03/tesl...

this stuff is happening across the country and even more intensively downstream of the veterans admin but it's happening in so many places at once and without any public notification that it's still only barely emerging in the news

Tesla recalls all Cybertrucks produced and sold in the first 15 months it was on the market in the US over a safety issue

Democrats do not understand that if somebody in the house of reps decided he wanted to go out like a hero and cracked some brass knuckles into a Quisling face or two, their party's approval rating would soar, and stay up
