“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

DOGE = Department of Gross Errors

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Toad put his head close to the ground and said loudly, “Now seeds, start growing!” Toad looked at the ground again. The seeds did not start to grow.

I'm actually still obsessed with the Kendrick halftime show lol

It’s Furry Friends Friday! ♥️ 🐾 Make it a great one!

If you’re ever in public while high on ketamine, this DEA pamphlet suggests you might want want to wear sunglasses, even indoors. www.dea.gov/sites/defaul...

looking back everything went to shit when Schoolhouse Rock stopped airing

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

I just wanna congratulate @meidastouch.com for beating Joe Rogan, and thank them for recommending my Substack. Indie media FTW! Check theirs out here: www.meidasplus.com

BREAKING: Canada defeats the USA to take home the #4Nations  Championship 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canadian PM Justin Trudeau tweeted: “You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.”

🚨 JUST IN: Canada DEFEATS the USA 3-2 to take home the #4Nations  Championship

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Remember when America had friends? Like a month ago?

This is true. @bsky.app is the app of the people. We may not all agree. We may not even all like each other. But we can engage and disagree and agree with our hate That makes the platform the future of social media

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

And fully half of it is a humiliating error where they mistake the value of a contract by 1000x confusing 8 million with 8 BILLION

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

Ruhle: The left-leaning podcast MeidasTouch has just done the unthinkable—dethroned Joe Rogan to become the country’s most popular podcast…

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

Thank you to @maddow.msnbc.com for promoting @bsky.app on air and complimenting it. Her on air support is truly important

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Dark Pence is back.

We are one news cycle away from Trump giving military aid to Russia.

As it turns out, Mike Johnson is now learning that a lot of Republican voters are on Medicaid.

My grandparents who were Holocaust survivors warned me this day might come again. Never give up!

The single greatest failure of the Democrats was not investigating this election.

Let's get this straight. Trump took credit for stock market and job gains under Biden— But inflation during his presidency? Not his fault. Got it.

Frog was trembling. “I am not afraid!” he shouted.

This is correct.

That’s the problem. We’ve been standing by for too long.

Frog and Toad ate many cookies, one after another. “You know, Toad,” said Frog, with his mouth full, “I think we should stop eating. We will soon be sick.” “You are right,” said Toad. “Let us eat one last cookie, and then we will stop.”

Acosta: It’s hard to see somebody out-Spicer Sean Spicer or out-Huckabee Sarah Huckabee Sanders, but Karoline Leavitt—she’s making a run for it. Unless they’ve already done it on SNL, I have to think something like that is in the works, because the skit writes itself.

Congressmen when they are asked if they will cut THEIR budgets and lay off staff as well:

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

👀

Planes didn't crash when this guy ran things.

Frog and Toad looked into a mirror. “We look brave,” said Frog. “Yes, but are we?” asked Toad.

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Protect this man at all costs
