Free Palestine!

It’s weird to see people criticizing Trump while support Israel. What’s that about?

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

Repost if you have tinnitus.

“Israeli forces have nothing but contempt for Palestinian children’s lives and systemic impunity means they will face no consequences,” he added. aje.io/gbbln5

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

Of course.

Everytime a black reporter said these folks weren’t trust worthy and that tech journalism knew what was happening They were right And that doesn’t even count the spaces that may not have or ever had DEI language but still are 97% white

When you lose the Nazis by being too Nazi. Never go Full Nazi.

We've come a long way from "I will lower prices on day one"

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.

The death of the concept of whiteness is about to be the most dramatic action filled narcissistic death everrrrrr. 🙄

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

White Baby Boomers should NOT be allowed to use social media. I’m so serious. This most-gullible, most-media illiterate demographic has done truly incalculable harm. They consistently brag about what they view as their gen’s accomplishments— —yet NEVER accept blame for their devastating failures.

When the far right in France is calling you out for being too Nazi, you might just be a Nazi: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

They’ll undermine law enforcement. No biggie.

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

I’m sorry I don’t get the whole organizations were “forced” to remove anything about the LGTBQIA+ community from their websites. That was a choice. You moved out of fear of a ‘what if’ instead of standing on principle.

trump wants to be able to tell the USPS not to deliver ballots to blue states www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?

New accusations emerged that Matt Schlapp, the Conservative Political Action Conference chairman, had groped a man at a bar in Virginia during a gathering of conservatives.

What diet do they have on these horrible people willing to sacrifice us so we never find out. This is wild this is actually happening

CHATTANOOGA: “Chatt Prep didn't respond to why so many of their teachers didn't have active teaching licenses— they get taxpayer💰, who makes sure charter schools follow the law to keep kids safe?” (One faces 12+ sexual exploitation of a minor charges) newschannel9.com/news/local/a...

Plot twist… Trump convinces his followers there is a significant amount of gold missing and all the administrations were lying - then boom civil war… Legit tho… we are back in the serial killer era. Read up and buy a gun.

I've been writing a series of essays for PBS on men whose style I admire. The latest is about James Baldwin, a man who knew how to sing through clothes. www.pbs.org/wnet/america...
