It never stops being sickly funny and fascinating how the party of "family values" lives with a level of degeneracy that my pervert ass could never come up with. www.independent.co.uk/life-style/k...

Censorship of the media!

Boom. This is how you disrupt the system. 🔥🔥🔥

A: Because Ron DeSantis rejected Lara Trump

Why is a Mexican actor at CPAC? I saw the name and I thought I know this name, and it turns out he's just an actor and singer and he's Mexican and he's throwing up that Nazi salute.

Pam Bondi: “On day one, I issued 14 executive orders...” (The Attorney General does not have the authority to issue executive orders)

What’s laughable is how little waste they have found. Every Silicon Valley enterprise I’ve been a part of blows a month’s rent daily on sushi and Uber Black

Folks, whatever we think Diddy did… it’s worse than that. https://nypost.com/2025/02/21/us-news/sean-diddy-combs-lawyer-quits-sex-trafficking-case-under-no-circumstances-can-i-continue/

If the GOP wants to eliminate the Civil Rights Act of 1964, introduce a bill, put it up to a vote. Campaign on it. Say it, cowards. Stop hiding behind the illegal DOGE “DEI” chainsawing.

This is really something

This is in one of the most conservative districts in Wisconsin ⤵️

Remarkable: Trump's own pollster just found that in swing House districts, Dems lead by 5 points and voters want tax policy to prioritize working people, per Politico. Yet GOP is about to brutally slash the safety net and give the rich huge tax cuts! New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1918...

#Florida appeals court upholds the dismissal of a charge against one of 20 people accused by Gov. Ron DeSastrous in 2022 of registering and voting when they were ineligible. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/02/21/f...

We tried so, so hard to tell you. www.rawstory.com/trump-worker...

Let me guess: they turn right toward fascism all the time! #SwasTesla #Swasticar

This is the little Fuck in all our Personal Information. MAKE HIM REALLY FAMOUS!!!! SHARE AND SHARE AND SHARE AGAIN ( not just in BS)

Just gonna leave this here. 😒

“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.

This is a great idea. I won't buy ANYTHING on Feb. 28. Anyone else in? 👇

@mayor.lacity.gov Scapegoating Crowley will cost you my vote in any future election. You should be ashamed of yourself.

NEW — 19-year-old DOGE engineer Edward Coristine turns out to be the grandson of former KGB spy Valery Martynov, who played a role in a sprawling 1980s espionage saga. www.jacobsilverman.com/p/prominent-...

1. On Friday Night, it became apparent that historic LGBTQ+ clinic Whitman-Walker in DC had erased trans care and resources from it's website. The stated reason is harmful to us all. I make my case against it, and other orgs, erasing us for federal dollars. Subscribe to support my journalism.

#ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory Meta laid off 5% of its workforce, then a week later more than doubled its executive bonuses from 75% of 200% of base pay. Kinda like what's happening with the federal government. Still think billionaires are on your side? Then I've got a bridge to sell you.

WI Supreme Court Race: If you care about abortion rights and FREEDOM then make a plan to vote for Judge Susan Crawford on April 1st‼️

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

Please proceed to the cashier’s window to collect your winnings. Thank you and congratulations on your successful wager

NEW: Whitman Walker, a LGBTQ health center in Washington DC, has scrubbed its site of descriptions of gender affirming care services. This is pure cowardice and stabbing the trans community in the back. While services are not affected, it will limit access to resources if patients can't find them.

The party of (theoretically) individualism and self-determination and steely-eyed frontier bootstrap bullshit sure seems happy to let a New York reality tv real estate bankruptcy magnet walk all over them and steal what power they had scraped together. Sad.

I was off by a workday but the rest stands.

"The crowd again started shouting 'tax Elon,' 'tax the wealthy,” “tax the rich' and 'tax the billionaires.'" The county went 68% for Trump www.lagrandeobserver.com/news/local/r...

The senior military officer purges will put our troops in danger. Trump put a part-time airmen incharge of the military, jumping a slew of 3 and 4-stars with 30-40 years of military experience. Our enemy couldn’t be happier.

WTAF? One continuous unelected power grab after another.
