Elon Musk handed a $1M check to Nicholas Jacobs who looks a lot like Nick Jacobs, Chairman of the Wisconsin College Republicans, a Junior at the University of Wisconsin — who locked his X account. The second winner is Ekaterina Diestler, whose TikTok account is now private.

“One of the recipients of a large, showy check, Nicholas Jacobs, is the chair of the Wisconsin College Republicans.”

elon musk did a whole-ass felony in public just to take a huge public and personal L haha eat shit bozo

I keep saying there's a massive opportunity for any institution that loudly and proudly tells Trump to eat shit and I think that will only become more obvious with time

Lmao

To all those dorks that said "violence never fixes anything!" I would like to offer a counter-argument:

It's never ever true that people with power 'can't do anything.'

I'm glad y'all are inspired by Cory Booker's filibuster! It feels great to finally have an elected official stand against carrying on business as usual. But please, PLEASE, at a bare minimum, match any donation you make to the Democrats with a donation to a mutual aid group or individual GoFundMe.

And, to be clear, it's almost certainly happening *because* the base has been screaming for action from elected Democrats. This isn't "relax, they've got this." This is "keep yelling, it's working."

make cory booker talk about the fate grand order lore on the senate floor. the kingdom hearts timeline. the plot to tsubasa reservoir chronicle

Disobey in advance.

moving forward I would like to see dems gum up the works every way possible. No unanimous consent, full votes on every tiny piece of business. I don't expect everyone to have the stamina to do a Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, but many lengthy floor speeches. Just slow everything down to a crawl.

New — Here is a running list of Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS) offices that have either been fully eliminated or gutted into non-functionality as a result of today's mass firings (provided to me directly by a CDC staffer):

I hate to be the one to say it, but this has been missing from nearly all the commentary– Gang members deserve due process rights as much as anyone else. Disappearing them is as much a crime against humanity as disappearing unaffiliated men.

I've said plenty about Booker in the past, but I'm in on this. For those people saying "this is performative bullshit" yes welcome to politics. But considering most of our leaders are capitulating, I'll take this kind of performance any day of the week

Listen. I believe ardently in criticizing our leaders for their failures and inaction but if you refuse to acknowledge their efforts when they do make them and if you refuse to recognize a step in the right direction, you don’t really want change. You just want to complain.

The Booker thing is fine; good even. It's better than anything Senate Dems have done to date. If theyd be doing stuff like this and using unanimous consent and other objections to slow nominations from day 1 we'd be in a better place as a country.

We need a revolving door law that imposes a lifetime ban on anyone elected to any office ever doing a podcast. Enough

Liberal activists say that we need younger leaders in our federal government. So why are they mad about DOGE teen-agers running the Treasury?

Don’t mistake my kindness for weakness. I am very, very weak, but they are two different things.

Yes. What's good about the Booker grandstand isn't the immediate procedural impact, it's that it is breaking the seal on an obstructionist tactic they should have been using from the start. These guys are little babies and this is a first little wobble practice step

How it started // how it's going

Who among us

I know this makes me effete coastal elitist and so forth but this discussion in a public forum is just so absolutely trashy. Like being drunk in a wife-beater shirt taking swings at your ex on the front stoop trashy. And yet damaged young men see that as “masculine.”

There are many things funny about this, but top of the list is a journalist can’t figure out how to contact me.

First looks at ‘Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse.’ The film will release in theaters on June 4, 2027.

For anyone who somehow needs MORE evidence of inhumanity that's occurring 🤬

Academics fleeing the country because their political views or research topics offend high government officials is the biggest, flashing, neon red flag anyone can imagine. But of course, we wouldn't be here if T47 was worried how media and corporate power would respond to his plans.

I do not understand why any university would allow this administration to claim any moral high ground, which is what they’re doing when they pretend to believe that Trump and his fascist mob actually give a fuck about antisemitism, or have any interest in working with them to address or combat it

More of this please

Time to look into jury nullification

Less than a year after a full-throated embrace of AI, NaNoWriMo is shutting down :

Israel killed 15 Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers one by one, says UN

A gay makeup artist named Andry José Hernández Romero was among the Venezuelans President Trump deported to El Salvador. Andry’s offense? Having the wrong tattoos.

I can’t believe this is real! It’s like the worst caricature of how the right says Soros does politics.

What can I do to please God so much that he allows me to never hear from these people again
