Graduating from West Point is an accomplishment to be proud of and it’s shameful to inflight this muddled swine on those young people.

I'm genuinely sorry that Fetterman had a stroke and suffers from depression. But arguing that he has a free pass not to do his job in the name of destigmatizing brain injury and mental health struggles is offensive. If he can't do it, he should resign. If he doesn't want to, he should resign faster.

Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.

whew the truth of this

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

If you don’t want to take the booster don’t. But to prevent adults from having the choice is depraved.

I really enjoyed this show, so glad it's back for another season

Today is unfortunately a good reminder of just how depraved many Trump supporters are. It should be the easiest thing in the world to just wish someone well in light of a devastating health diagnosis. That they can't even meet that very low bar says a lot about their character.

okay, if you think gAI is a positive, that its "here to stay", and you're so proud of using gAI to write create art, claim it. Disclose when you use it to read, write, think, create. Have the integrity to publicly declare that you used gAI--its all the silence and secrecy that is so interesting.

Disgusting

so the members of congress just stopped going to el salvador and not a single person who was illegally sent there has been returned and that’s just how it is now?

Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey. They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵

OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/

Legality aside, how pathetic for the American head of state to fly around in the plane he got as a valentine from the Emir of Qatar. A kept little man.

Just noting - Trump is bragging about decorating the Oval Office in gold while telling America's kids to cut down on buying toys.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like it’s a mistake to leave public goods in the hands of billionaires who can decide at any moment they’re bored and don’t want to support them anymore bsky.app/profile/clar...

It’s incredible that now the *best case* scenario is basically Trump engaging in a humiliating climb-down, but having already inflicted permanent damage and uncertainty that never be undone.

I'm sorry I know there's a lot going on but how are we not screaming about Ron DeSantis stealing $10 million from Medicaid and the money ending up with pro-DeSantis superPACs, funneled through a charity run by his wife? HOW IS THIS NOT NATIONAL NEWS? www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

amazing how grasping this seems in response to someone doing something, how much he needs to be able to rewrite what you saw. the lesson is to do more things

When I get to the Senate, I'll support a bill to ban Congressional stock trading on day one. No elected official should be cashing in while the American people see their retirements go down the drain.

It’s not deporting, if you’re sending citizens to another country. It’s human trafficking. In this case, it’s also slave labor. You’re talking about an administration selling US citizens into slave labor.

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”

#handsoff @indivisible.org @chestercntyresist.bsky.social @indivisiblechesco.bsky.social #handsoffchesco The Daily Local News will be reporting our crowd size at 6,000 strong, and they are also calling it the biggest rally ever in West Chester. I am so proud of you, Chester County! 💙💙💙

if you read this you would think the iron curtain had fallen onto America

I love that the Spanish MLB IG page has a video taking two migrant workers to the Padres game. It feels like a big middle finger to everything going on in this country

Seriously, it would be a tremendous act of service journalism for some economics reporter to write the piece on what a) everyday household items b) major purchases will spike first.

Hey, are we ever gonna have sprawling coverage about this president's mental state too? Or was that just reserved for the guy who wasn't breaking the economy?

Leading us to the 18th Century! 🇺🇸Tally Ho!

California Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas (D-Salinas): "there are currently more kids with measles in Texas than there are transgender athletes in the NCAA. That's the epidemic we should all be worried about."

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Here's the things. You can't install Signal on federal devices. Ergo, this entire chat was being carried out on PRIVATE phones. So not only does the APP not have the proper security, the DEVICES don't either.

President Trump is lying about The Atlantic, calling it a "failing" magazine when in fact it's successful, profitable and growing

I don't know why anyone outside of the US would come to vacation here at all. You run the risk of the chaos monkeys in charge deciding one day that they don't like Belgium any more, and having the goon squad disappear anyone with a Belgian passport.

Literally refused to get any devices like this citing the fact it could be made to listen to you and data-gather without permission, and was told I was paranoid!

Walz: I think they hate public education because it’s easier to run an authoritarian government if you don’t have a population that knows.

Folks love to be told to “relax”
