This diverse group of judges will wind up being the first line of defense against the wild authoritarian crap Trump has planned the next four years 👇 Two-thirds of those judges are women, two-thirds are minorities and two-fifths are minority women. Read more here: bit.ly/49Qa6Mm #BidenWins

If you’re posting “Free Him” because you support the murder/assassination of a CEO… …you are lost. Is the health system in the US broken and gross? Yes. Are a select few grossly attaining wealth in the process? Yes. SHOULD THEY BE MURDERED? NO. #DoBetter

We warned you that this would happen. In addition to trying to deport American citizens, Trump wants to end birthright citizenship and denaturilize citizens. #DemCast Trump Says He Will Deport U.S.-Born Kids Together With Undocumented Parents www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

“Chinese state media is reportedly troubled by the latest exodus of X users flocking to Bluesky. State outlets … put considerable resources into amassing millions of followers on Elon Musk’s social media platform.” www.semafor.com/article/11/25/2024/bluesky-boom-worries-chinese-media

Here's how the US president-elect today is promoting $199 "fragrances" on his social media feed.

Oh listen, we aren’t afraid. My response to Trumps threat: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/bring-it-o...

You cannot cut 2 trillion dollars from federal spending without doing terrible damage to Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security. You cannot raise tariffs without raising prices. The Republican plan is to take money from regular people and give it to the most profitable corporations on the planet.

In a major backtrack, Trump’s transition team has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Justice Department, paving the way for the team to seek FBI background checks on the Trump’s appointees.

Reports are increasingly suggesting that A) lots and lots of people have stories of Hegseth’s history of excessive drinking, and B) the Trump team had no idea it was an issue until yesterday.

You thought the rollback of basic human rights was going to stop at abortion? Abortion is just the beginning. And if you don't care about #LGBT people, so you think it's ok if we lose the right to marry the person we love, just wait. They'll come for you too.

What can he do to keep his nose from dripping in all these interviews?

The North Carolina General Assembly’s GOP supermajority just approved a hugely corrupt power grab, seizing authority from the governor and the courts to prevent any meaningful check on legislative abuses. Authoritarian stuff. A very dark day for democracy in NC. amp.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

2,000 Mules -- a movie full of debunked and bogus claims -- is a central part of the election denialism movement. Now - two and a half years after its release - its creator Dinesh D'Souza is admitting the movie got some things wrong.... www.cnn.com/2024/12/02/p...

WATCH: People celebrating after South Korea's parliament blocks martial law and soldiers withdraw

Just FYI evidently the vaccine has antennas and is about to be activated. 2024 would make the dark ages jealous

Today would be a great time for our federal government and leaders in Congress to take a hard look at the Insurrection Act and national emergency processes and figure out what their plan is if they are implemented illegally. That would be great guys.

I am not going to stop calling for an FBI background check of Tulsi Gabbard and neither should you.

"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

I'm certain this is true! 😂

WATCH: @mehdirhasan.bsky.social on why Kash Patel is a problem Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DDFmCF8...

The day America decided to ignore Jared Kushner's $2 billion from the Saudis, and put an insurrection-inciting convicted felon back in the White House, is the day I stopped giving a shit about any "moral high ground." I hope President Biden takes his "presidential immunity" out for a fucking spin.

Good to see the Times picking up on a theme some of us have been hammering for a while: Trump's tariffs, and especially an opaque exemption process, will be an engine of massive crony capitalism 1/ www.nytimes.com/2024/11/23/u...

So he gonna remove Trump’s name first or…

Vivek is literally an unelected federal bureaucrat.

This sort of democratic backsliding, where Republicans seek to overturn the effect of an election by reallocating powers away from positions they have lost, has become almost routine now. But it should remain shocking.

there will be more articles written next week about the threat of “cancel culture” than there will be about this

Kash Patel has openly expressed his plans to “come after” journalists he doesn’t like. He is for retribution, not justice. This is from my book, #RoughBeast:

Pretty much 🤷🏻

Elon Musk spent Thanksgiving with Trump instead of his family and Trump sat next to Musk during the feast instead of his wife Melania Trump. Musk hasn't left Trump's side since the election, questions are arising if he'll be living at the White House after January.

This explains all the pro russian statements. Although why we would want something that catches fire just as easily as T-72 is open question.

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to hear that Elon Musk has now admitted that X (formerly Twitter) is throttling link-based posts, essentially stifling news articles on the social media platform. Thankfully we now have @bsky.app newrepublic.com/post/188794/...

Traffic from Bluesky to @bostonglobe.com is already 3x that of Threads, and we are seeing 4.5x the conversions to paying digital subscribers.

Elon admits that any post on X with a link is throttled He advises you to upload content directly to X instead, where he can monetize it Musk is the richest person in the world and his view is everyone should work for him for free

Yes, X is "bigger" than Bluesky. But only if what you are posting advances Musk's ideological agenda. Other information is suppressed, no matter who you are. Major breaking news from the NYT, with 55 MILLION FOLLOWERS, gets almost no engagement.

Perhaps more of the legacy media should have pushed back on his lies at the time. @democracydocket.com did.
