Yep

This is hilarious. #Greenland

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Just going to repost my essay "Decapitation Strike" from November. We are living through it now. snyder.substack.com/p/decapitati...

Fired? Chelsea Manning was sentenced to THIRTY FIVE YEARS in prison

Breaking News: Democrat James Malone just defeated a Republican in a Pennsylvania district that voted for Trump by over 15 points. This is a huge embarrassment for Elon Musk, who urged people to vote for the GOP candidate.

🚨 BREAKING Democrat Dan Goughnour wins a special election for the Pennsylvania State House, breaking a 101-101 tie and securing Democratic control of the chamber.

Moments ago, Donald Trump signed a massive voter suppression executive order. This will not stand. We will sue.

JUST IN: American Oversight is suing Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe et al, saying their messaging via Signal is a violation of the Federal Records Act. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

Thom Tillis casting the deciding vote to confirm Hegseth, and his shameful silence yesterday, should be a major issue in the 2026 NC Senate race.

Pete Hegseth never should have been tapped for this job. It's too important. He should be fired immediately.

BTW who translates your Sufi verse matters-- there's been a whole discourse on White People Mistranslating Rumi (tm)-- taking out the Islam to make him sound more universal and niiiice, that kind of thing. Make sure work is trans by someone w/cultural competency. Goes for every text, esp sacred.

Why can’t you play hide and seek with a Pokemon? They always Pikachu. Not very good, I know. I’ll show myself out.

The Trump Administration has detained, kidnapped, and/or deported the following people: - A white, Canadian actress - a US citizen child who survived brain cancer - a Palestinian activist and student - an Indian national and post-doc student - A Filpino woman here for 50 years

I could be ok with this.

Only one bus references Canada. Why is that? This is our reality. This is the choice. Vote like our country depends on it.

Timeline cleanse 🌞

Trump’s Attorney General Pam Bondi just issued a threat to Rep. Jasmine Crockett, telling her to “tread very carefully” when criticizing Elon Musk.

Putin’s one and only route to victory is through Trump’s head.

Here we go again. Wise up. Stop this illegal activity.

The Trump regime and DOGE are rolling out this playbook to attack Social Security — one of the most popular and effective government programs. They're deliberately sabotaging it by firing SSA workers and cutting services. Why? Because they don't want it to work.

This should INFURIATE you

“But no one in the wider world can appreciate how stressful it is to confront an executive order like this until one is directed at you.” --Brad Karp. Fuck you, you coward.

A President targeting ideologically opposed states, universities, law firms and lawyers, businesses, etc. unconstitutionally abuses the power of the Presidency. Democracy dies when institutions capitulate to unconstitutional and authoritarian demands. We must stand up together.

More of this.

👀

“Are you worried?” That is always the first question. “Of course I am worried,” I respond. “The president of the United States considers me an enemy and has promised retribution. I would be an idiot not to be worried. But I am not going to give in. I will continue to fight.”

Three years ago, Russia occupied 30% of Ukraine, with fewer than 100,000 losses. Today, after nearly 900,000 casualties, they control just 19% of Ukrainian land. Russia isn’t in a position of strength — it's just Trump's administration trying to make it look that way.

Can’t make this up.

This is how we here in the U.S. also should be greeting the bravest soldier of the free world.

To everyone who supports Ukraine 🫶

Democrats need to have disciplined messaging on this clip right here for the next 3 days. We have the memory of goldfish. All hands on deck around this clip of Lutnick and Social Security revealing the greed and cruelty of Trump, Musk, and the GOP.

Casar: You can quickly explain Doge with just two numbers. First: $8 million a day. That’s how much Elon Musk collects in federal government contracts. Second: $65 a day. That’s how much the average senior—someone who has worked their entire life—gets from Social Security.…

Are the bots developing attitudes? Coding assistant Cursor AI refused to write the code one of its users requested, saying, “You should develop the logic yourself. This ensures you understand the system and can maintain it properly.”

Disgusting, even for Trump.

Keep receipts of all the cowards who bent the knee for Trump. They made the wrong calculation and investment. They are misreading the moment and throwing us all under the bus for short term safety The country will wake up. It'll happen sooner than you think.

It isn't just MAGA that's nervous about these big crowds coming out for Bernie and AOC, it's also the Democratic establishment. They hate it more than anyone.

Not ONLY is our freedom connected to everyone else, our very lives are CREATED in fundamental relation with everything around us. Individualism, the idea that one CAN "exist" independently, is THE great lie of Western society.

Meanwhile at the Game Developers Conference... many Canadian video game developers are opting not to join amid deteriorating relations between the US and Canada.

💯 Trump can't tolerate heroism.
