Imagine having this much disdain for your own voters

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”? But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"? Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

This is evil. Pure evil.

Attention working-class Americans: Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security. Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

Donald Trump wants to pick and choose which journalists are allowed in his press pool. This is what dictators do.

@bodyorphanage.bsky.social Howdy old friend! (It's Andrew from Kreyg's channel way back when. I dropped Twitter back in 2022 when Musk was buying it.)

Hold the fuck on — the Department of Government Efficiency, the entity which claims its mission is to end “wasteful spending”, was given SEVEN MILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS to cover its “expenses” in the span of a single week?!?! Are you fucking kidding me?!?

Every day is Christmas for Putin now.

Elon Musk wants the power to cut off programs that pay for your grandma's nursing home stay. There's nothing "efficient" about ripping health care away from millions. www.nytimes.com/.../musk-fed...

Welcome to the Golden Age of Dipshittery.

Congressional delegation outside USAID now: “We are here to shed a light on a crime unfolding before our eyes.”

Apparently, allowing Americans to file their tax returns for free is a bad thing. A big gift to the Big Tax lobby and a big middle finger to Americans.

Oh myyy, they are the very letter of it!

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

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Their faith lets them worship power while they’re offended by mercy. It’s not Christianity they’re practicing.

Trump et al made a big deal of Iran’s security threat to him during the election. And now it’s… all good?

Just sayin’

Virtually every question today at the WH Press briefing was about the Hunter pardon, as if that is the thing the American people care about most right now. The DC press is so disconnected from the American public and serves them poorly more often than not.

I’m curious how much federal funding he thinks the ACLU receives (it’s none).

More bad news for the Muskrat. This is going to be a huge hit to his already ruined social media site. I love this for him.

Bluesky

This needs to be said, loud, and often.

Bluesky is just so much better than Twitter. It feels like what Twitter used to be. I hope it's here to stay!

You don’t bury an ethics report that would exonerate Trump’s pick. You don’t skip FBI background checks unless his nominees have something to hide. See what they’re doing? Please tell me you see what they’re doing.

Since moving here from the hellscape that is X, my feed is somehow now full of posts about how awesome libraries are and I am HERE FOR IT! Support your local libraries, they provide a warm space safe for everyone and the free gift of knowledge!
