A disgusting new level of propaganda. Karoline Leavitt wasted taxpayer dollars plastering mug shots across the White House lawn — like trophies. Lies. Fear. Dehumanization. All to distract us from their own failures.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

Dear [BLANK], Have you seen what Donald Trump is doing? Jeepers, shit is nuts. We need a plan, which is why I have included my photo and this request for $7. With your support, we can form a committee to draft a strongly worded email about oh shit they're in the ceiling oh god the blood

For those new here, I spent last year writing for @newrepublic.com about an extremist tech ideology. It calls for tech elites to control governments and/or create new ones. It seeks to dismantle nations and destroy democracy. Some call it the "Network State," and it may now seem familiar to you 🧵

in what meaningful way can we say that the constitution is in effect when an unelected and unaccountable billionaire is wielding state power to unilaterally cancel congressional appropriations?

Excuse me while I vent for a moment SHE IS THE APPROPRIATIONS CHAIR. SHE CAN SUBPOENA OFFICIALS, HOLD TELEVISED HEARINGS, HOLD UP ANYONE’S FUNDING, ZERO OUT THE WHITE HOUSE’S FUCKING ICE CREAM AND DIET COKE BUDGET, AND ENFORCE THE APPROPRIATIONS LAWS THAT ARE THE SOURCE OF HER PERSONAL POWER.

Definitely. The minute America goes back to the pre-WW2 annexation game, China will start bombing Taiwan. I can't express how fucking dangerous this moment is. There are surveys showing that most people in the world believe some other countries' territories belong to them. A Pandora's Box of shit.

'People should be freaking out': Expert flags trick Trump using to shield Musk from law: The White House is playing games with Elon Musk's official role in the administration, and a national security expert said "people should be freaking out" that his allies have access to their private data.…

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

At the press conference outside of USAID headquarters, Rep. Jamie Raskin: "Elon Musk, you didn't create USAID. The United States Congress did for the American people. And just like Elon Musk did not create USAID, he doesn't have the power to destroy it. And who's going to stop him? We are!"

Where are all the people who were yelling “lock her up” when HRC used a private server for her emails? Why are they not concerned that Musk and his boy toys are currently downloading classified information to their servers?

it's hard to read the chart in the screenshot but what this moron is actually complaining about isn't "DEI" staff, it's special education teachers. these ghouls are coming for people with disabilities and they aren't even shy about it.

This is an obvious message from a sitting president saying you have his permission to murder another US citizen. There is no other way to see this and it needs to be called out for what it is.

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago. In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists. Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

Republican women are upset that the GOP won’t let them run Committees. People of color are upset that they aren’t being represented in Trump’s Cabinet. Muslim voters are upset about Trump’s Gaza policies. Turns out, the face-eating leopards don’t spare you because you voted for them. Weird, huh?

THIS! Biden just commuted nearly 1,500 sentences—the largest grant of clemency by a president in a single day ever. He’s also the first to pardon those convicted of simple marijuana possession and former service members convicted of violating the military’s former laws against homosexual conduct.
