Said it before, I’ll say it again. We shouldn’t privatize NASA. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/s...

Beyond parody.

Vladimir Putin is a sworn enemy of the United States. Appeasement was never going to work. Why is that so difficult to understand?

How does this Make America Healthy Again?

No kings, masters, overlords or any of that bullshit. Time to take the country back.

I have been sick for a week and I just read about "something going around" in a subreddit, which I guess is how I get my information now that the CDC is officially spending the next four years determining when and how microscopes became gay.

We’re in a constitutional crisis, the markets are tanking, unemployment is on the rise, his tariff extortions are a disaster, a nasty recession looms on the horizon, and he’s polling lower than salmonella… …so naturally, he thinks it’s time to glam up Columbus Day.

UPDATE: Christopher Columbus still in Hell.

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means. It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation. I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

Booker: Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch of men on the House floor got together and said “on the count of three, women get the right to vote..” That’s not how it happened… Change doesn’t come from Washington. It comes to Washington.

We must not stop speaking up. Hearing so many powerful voices–from American families to congressional leaders–has left me filled with hope for the fights and work ahead.

I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now. I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system. It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

CONSTITUENT: One of the people on the call (Signal) was even in Moscow. @repcasar.bsky.social: Trump & Musk are talking about closing down phone lines in the Social Security office to verify your identity…because it’s not “secure” enough. Do you ever think a text message in Moscow is…secure? 🔥

Where did Hegseth get the info he dropped into the Signal chat? Did he copy/paste it from another chat? “The Vice President that I worked for wouldn’t even use AirPods because she understood the national security threat. These people—it’s amateur hour at the OK corral.” @symonedsanders.bsky.social

“People should see the texts in order to reach their own conclusions.” @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social and @shaneharris.bsky.social share the group chat in which officials planned strikes on Yemen: theatln.tc/uXU1g37J

We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly. Let’s start today.

I just subscribed to 5 Calls Newsletter! buttondown.com/5calls

How in God’s name did RFK Jr accumulate up to $1.2 MILLION in credit card debt??? 💳

Donald J for Jerks Off to His Own Daughter Trump revoked Joe Biden’s security clearance. Why? Because Assistant POTUS Small in the Pants is a petulant fucking manchild who can’t do all the terrible revenge things he wants to do, so he’ll just so stupid fucking shit like that.

Shit is broken as fuck. We all know that. So if you happen to be looking for someone to play nice, shut up and smile, you’re in the wrong fucking place and you have the wrong fucking girl. Cuz that sure as shit ain’t this moment in time and it sure as shit ain’t me.

Phishing Scam.

My weed dealer is selling eggs now.

We do not need this little weirdo tearing down the government.

@johnpavlovitz.bsky.social tells us that hating Trump and the evils being done by Trump is a sign you care about the suffering of others. open.substack.com/pub/johnpavl...

Trump: “We have people that shouldn’t be on (social security), and those people we have to weed out.” I’ve paid into social security since I was 17—it wasn’t a donation to the treasury. When the time comes: Bitch Better Have My Money! Hands! Off! Social! Security!

Not hard to understand, dipshits 🤦🏻‍♀️ #SheShed

Hegseth: “‘Diversity is our strength’… that's the biggest load of crap I've ever heard in my life. Our strength is not our diversity.” From the Tuskegee Airmen to the Navajo Code Talkers to immigrants, our U.S. military history proves the opposite. We all know what you mean, White-Men-Only-Pete.

It only took a car salesman to claim, "Nope, I won't follow the rules," to wipe out 238 years of regulations, pledges, and protocols and for the whole thing to fall completely apart.

After Years of Feasting on EV Subsidies, Elon Musk Is Now Content to Watch Them Die: This story was originally published by the Guardian and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Donald Trump’s attempts to slash incentives for electric cars would cause sales of the vehicles…

I think the U.S. should join Canada and become the 11th province. You know why 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 Medical is free in Canada 🇨🇦 Strict gun laws 🇨🇦 LGBTQ+ people are protected from discrimination 🇨🇦 Life expectancy in Canada is 81.3 years and in the US is 77.43 Come live a better life and live the Canadian dream❤️🇨🇦

All USAID humanitarian work around the world has been stopped — including all life-saving programs. "Right now, there is no USAID humanitarian assistance happening," a current USAID official in the humanitarian division revealed. "There are waivers put in place by Secretary Rubio for emergency…

Holy shit this cartoon.

At some point, and hopefully soon, the national guard will need to be called in to arrest the capitol security police who are enforcing illegal EOs. They have a duty to refuse illegal orders and uphold the constitution code.dccouncil.gov/us/dc/counci...

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

All of the so-called "patriots" who are cheering the felon's dismantling of DEI is indicative as to why it was needed in the first place. That's right. There are people among us who never wanted women, the disabled, or people of color to have equal opportunities. True story☕️

put it in the chyron hall of fame

Why would a 'Christian' destroy the world's largest relief agency?: For Christians here and across the world, the ongoing confrontation over the fate of USAID dramatically illustrates the moral degeneration of the politicians who most fervently profess their piety. While Donald Trump wraps himself…

Reminder: this is completely lawless

1. It’s WSJ reporter. 2. Even when the Trump Admin fires one of their own, it is The Media’s fault. We made them do it. 3. Americans have a right to know the names of people running the country. 4. This is a time for journos to be fearless because this is part of the deal now.
