In 2016 MN Police killed a Black man named Philando Castile despite him disclosing he had a legal firearm. Yesterday MN Police released a white woman named Jenny Boelter despite her car full of cash, firearms, & passports hours after her husband mass murdered people & was on the run from police.

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.

Tina Smith on Mike Lee: "I went to him and I said, 'Your message on social media showed the image of the man who killed my friend ... and your message is, this is what happens? You need to take responsibility and accountability ...' And I wanted him to hear that from me directly."

Incredible moments tonight from the courageous, powerful press conference from @gavinnewsom.bsky.social.....

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

So he was drunk or lying.

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt. This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Just two weeks ago, everyone was screeching about China stealing all of our data through TikTok, but now Elon steals it and the MAGA crisis actors are OK with it? That's some fucking bullshit.

Jesuit Priest 👇🏽

Elon Musk is a terrible president.

This is a hostile takeover of the U.S. Government.

Oh look. A President, a Governor, a Mayor - all at the crash site at the Chesapeake Bay with first responders. Not swimming. Showing empathy and leadership.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

Senator Adam Schiff torched Kash Patel: "Mr. Patel may be, I don't know, but he may be the first nominee for FBI Director in history who felt it necessary to plead the 5th." BOOM! 🔥

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

if they want to go back to the 1950s, we’re bringing the cuisine back to the 1950s too. you put me in the kitchen, I will spend 100% of my time in there finding how much horseradish and shrimp I can put in Jello before God personally comes down here to stop me.

I’ll never get over that all of this was avoidable and our kids could’ve had a better future had voters just made the obviously rational choice in November. It’s water under the bridge now. But what the fuck, people.

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

Workplace raids have begun—none of these people were rapists or criminals. Even if you’re not a US citizen, you still have due process in this country. 3 workers in Newark were taken into custody by ICE w/out a warrant. One, a veteran, endured the humiliation of having his military docs questioned.

Of course ending birthright citizenship is blatantly unconstitutional. So is a third term in office. But I thought the same thing about presidential criminal immunity and holding office after inciting an insurrection. The obvious is not so obvious anymore.

We will not forget

Trump on disaster aid to California: "I want to see two things in Los Angeles. Voter ID, so that the people have a chance to vote, and I want to see the water be released and come down into Los Angeles and throughout the state. After that, I will be the greatest president that CA has ever seen."

Reports of Navajo people being detained in immigration sweeps sparks concern from tribal leaders The DOJ argued in court that Indigenous people don’t have birthright citizenship, even though they have for 100 years azmirror.com/2025/01/24/r...

Just one of many reasons why Michelle Obama will not attend Trump's inauguration, why GWB ignored Trump at the Carter funeral, why Karen Pence did not greet or shake hands with the Trumps at the Carter funeral.

Not one school shooter has ever been given the death penalty. Not one. U.S. government is seeking the death penalty for Luigi Magione. Proving that one rich CEO is worth so much more in this country than any child. Disgusting.

The answer to “why isn’t that person in prison” is: A. SCOTUS B. Bill Barr C. The two-tiered justice system D. Aileen Cannon E. Any combination of these

Things are looking up! More Sean and Lazlo on #shadows TONIGHT!

Andrew Tate got banned from Bluesky in less than one day. Another reason things are so much better here than Twitter.

NEW: Judge Chutkan has unsealed Jack Smith's 165-page motion for presidential immunity! storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In a sane country, pushing democracy-destroying lies of this sort would be disqualifying for a presidential candidate

I'm realizing one of the central narratives of the Arthurian cycle is that when the kingdom starts to decay the heroes start to ride out on a quest to find the magic thingie that will fix all their problems instead of staying home and doing the work, and that's infected a lot of fantasy fiction

Check it out. Here are some pictures I took, while doing JD Vance's job, of people doing Tim Walz's job.

Why is corporate media not asking why Trump is not on campaign trail for a week while Harris and Walz are on campaign blitz tour and Vance is campaigning on his own? Why aren’t they asking if he’s too frail and tired? Wouldn’t they be asking so of Biden?

Lmao JD Vance chasing Kamala around the country so he can take pics in front of Air Force 2 like one of those guys taking their photo in front of a Ferrari they don't own. NOT WEIRD.

a point i made a few weeks ago and a point i will make again is that the mulligan trump gets for covid makes absolutely no sense. an acute crisis like a pandemic is, as lord businessman notes, the whole reason we have a singular executive! the fact that he fucked up should be dispositive!
