There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Goddamit, where is my wages breakout???

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

An hourly reminder that DOGE is not about Elon Musk cutting government money waste, it is about wasting more government money on Elon Musk. Here is Elon cutting NASA, a government agency that his private company competes with for federal funding. They aren't even bothering to hide the corruption.

The community note 🤌😘

He’s right again.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Woof

BREAKING: The DOJ has officially asked a federal judge to dismiss the corruption case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. This comes after several federal prosecutors resigned in protest rather than comply with an order to drop the case How can MAGA possibly justify this blatant corruption?

Britannica Refuses To Rename The Gulf Of Mexico "We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.'s authority to rename it is ambiguous." www.yahoo.com/news/reason-...

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Labor and the Coalition have done a deal on electoral laws, and in a rushed, secretive and dismissive process, passed the laws through Parliament. Labor’s compromises with the Coalition have worsened the bill even further. @browne90.bsky.social explains: #auspol

Trump is the third-best President of the past 12 months.

More of this, America.

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.

This is insane

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

People who think removing DEI in universities leads to meritocracies, are too stupid to get into universities on the merits.

Matthew W. Huttle would be alive today if Donald J. Trump weren't president.

A Defence Secretary hasn't been as unqualified as Hegseth since Olaf the Hairy, high chief of all the Vikings, accidentally ordered 80,000 battle helmets with the horns on the inside! ~ Blackadder (paraphrased)

This is McCarthyism but worse bc MAGAs use “Antifa” as a catchall smear for people who oppose Trump. 1/

If CBS settles this BS case, the money they pay Trump will pale in comparison to the drop in ratings they will experience.

My thoughts on today

That's an interesting salute

A message for Aussie porkchops

This conversation about the total takeover of the GOP by conspiracy-obsessed reactionary oligarchs in the age of Trump got me thinking about the long history of attempts by conspiracy-obsessed reactionary oligarchs to control the GOP in Oregon beginning in the 1960s. open.spotify.com/episode/5n24...

Is it as American as apple pie? The earliest known apple pie recipe is from an English cookbook, circa 1380.
