the pitt is never more endearing than when you can feel the writers turning to the camera and saying something like "vaccines are good" or "abortions should be legal and accessible even to minors." like hell yeah dr. robby you tell em!!! we love an informed ethical perspective in fiction!!

ARE YOU READY FOR APRIL 5TH? With over a quarter of a million sign ups, we are taking action across the world this Saturday to protest Trump and his Tech Bro in Chief. Join us on April 5th and help Remove the corrupt politicians, Reverse the damage, and Restore our democracy.

DOGE is not efficient at all.

🚨 THIS IS DICTATOR BEHAVIOR 🚨 Trump just declared that he will VOID Biden’s pardons — including for members of the January 6th Committee. This isn’t just an attack on Biden — it’s a direct threat to political dissent and a chilling escalation of political persecution. @polrev.bsky.social

I'm sorry for raining on this parade, but the "transgender mice" talking point is bullshit, but not because someone mistook "transgenic" for "transgender." The blog post that kicked it off (from a partisan bullshit website) listed a number of papers testing the effects of sex hormones on animals.

"Conspiracy theorists babble about a vast plot to protect a demonic predator because it’s easier than reckoning with the reality that preying on children, especially young girls, was so common 20 years ago as to be barely worth mentioning." www.publicnotice.co/p/pam-bondi-...

No shortage of selective outrage

Target is facing a 40-day consumer boycott starting Wednesday over the company’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

Our next date of mobilization - we are calling for Remove, Reverse, Reclaim. This April 5th, we are calling for nation-wide protests and sit-ins to take place. 50 Protests. 50 States. 1 Movement. #RemoveReverseReclaim #PeoplesMovement #WeAre50501 #50501movement @polrev.bsky.social

Gay rights doesn’t affect your shitty lives at all you fucking ghouls.

A divided Supreme Court rejected the Trump administration’s request to block a lower court’s ruling on foreign aid funding, requiring the USAID to resume payments.

For years I justified my twitter habit by saying, "I need to be here to promote my books and stuff like the Project for Awesome." Without twitter, this year's p4a raised a record $3,700,000. Without twitter, Everything Is Tuberculosis (a history of tuberculosis!) is outselling my previous book...

PAY ATTENTION 🚨SOS!!🚨 a whistleblower who works in the fed govt just got this info 2 me. They are dismantling SSA, It’s happening right NOW. With an interruption in service in 2-3 mnths. I can’t say who this person is but they’re in a position to know. SPREAD THE WORD! 🧵

Going forward make an effort to obscure or hide your faces where possible or when needed. Wear a mask or anonymitize your images and videos if able. If you own a shirt, you own a mask. #3E #3Eguide #USprotests

EOs aren't laws, get lost

Within a week Trump announced sanctions relief for Russia, 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada, 10% on China, threatened Europe, and cut off aid to Ukraine while openly threatening Zelenskyy for not surrendering to Russia.

jesus fucking christ, man, it gets really tired noting this kind of thing, but "[veterans] aren't fit to have a job or aren't willing to come to work" is the kind of headline that should absolutely destroy a fucking administration and would, if that administration were led by a democrat

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

you can watch the stock market tank in the bottom corner of Fox's broadcast as Trump talks about tariffs

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

The Trump administration is demanding the home addresses of 700,000 people suspected of being in the country illegally from the IRS. The IRS is resisting this request, as complying would directly violate federal tax privacy laws.

Elon updated DOGE, claiming to have fixed the mistakes we all pointed out. But instead of correcting them, he just added more false claims. He even inflated his so-called “savings” total from $55 billion to $65 billion, when in reality, the actual increase is only from $2 billion to $2.3 billion.

You can either support the United States of America and our democracy, or you can support trump. You cannot do both.

If you’re at home today, not spending money, and feeling bored, you might be wondering, “What could I do?” Well, task one: you can make random reports on this website: enddei.ed.gov

Just saying.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston is temporarily closed after Elon Musk fired members of its staff.

Musk’s staffers are accessing the heavily guarded Internal Revenue Service (IRS) system, which contains detailed financial information on every taxpayer, business, and nonprofit in the country.

The #1 reported reason people avoid doctor’s appointments is because they’re afraid of finding out they have a serious illness. If you have that fear, that’s normal and you’re not alone. Also remember, there is basically no serious illness that isn’t less serious if you catch it sooner.

If you thought it wasn’t possible—well, here we are. Musk pulled $80 million in funding authorized by Congress straight from NYC’s bank account. The federal government took the funds and called it a “clawback” of taxpayer money. A lot of others would simply call it stealing.

A federal judge, Amir H. Ali, ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze foreign aid spending halted in Trump’s first week, ruling that the freeze was based on dubious logic and likely causing irreparable harm to aid groups facing financial shortfalls and potential shutdowns.

Donold now has a framed picture of his mugshot hung up inside the White House.

The CFPB will begin deleting agency data as soon as today. Meanwhile, the Trump administration and Musk staffers are rewriting history on U.S. government websites and erasing data from databases nationwide—removing information that doesn’t align with their political agenda.

This administration has convinced half the country that the real problem isn’t billionaires who evade taxes and collect government handouts but the working class who pay taxes and get nothing in return.

I find it bizarre that we managed to go through 44 Presidents in over 200 years without hearing the term "quid pro quo" related to them, and now we've had it at least twice with the same crooked fucking asshole. So tired of this shit.

At the nation’s scientific and public health agencies, panic set in as officials braced for a wave of layoffs. The Trump administration is now embracing forced resignation of officials at CDC and NIH.

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

Art I’ve made… not recently but it’s there

Call the US government today, flood the lines and apply maximum pressure. Demand they do their jobs, arrest Musk, and impeach Trump. 5 minutes, 5 calls, repeat. #3E

Jeffries on GOP "bait & switch": "Part 1, talk about lowering the high cost of living but do nothing about it. Part 2, enact massive tax cuts for billionaires that will do nothing to improve the quality of life of everyday Americans. Part 3, stick working Americans with the bill for those tax cuts"
