"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

A side benefit of total incompetence???

For real! 😣

Jeffries: "So many of these people are crooks, liars, and frauds, and Marjorie Taylor Greene is of course exhibit A ... we do need to change the law so that sitting members of Congress cannot trade stock. Period. Full stop."

Donny Trump, who is busy crashing the world economy, has decided he doesn't need an Embassy in Luxembourg. Nor does the US need a consulate where one of Trump's golf courses lives, in Edinburgh. punchbowl.news/article/fore...

you know, it was annoying to have to spend a chunk of my morning at the DMV to get a REAL ID but shoutout to the people at my local location, who are clear, *very* efficient and quite polite (if necessarily a bit stern)

MIT following Harvard's lead here

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

He doesn’t care if people suffer. He just cares about never admitting he’s wrong.

All we wanted was goddamn healthcare

Well thankfully we have a constitution and first amendment that will endure long past you fat self

#OnThisDay April 14, 1996, Skinner purchased fast food to disguise as his own cooking at an unforgettable luncheon with Superintendent Chalmers, when “22 Short Films About Springfield” first aired on Fox. @thatbilloakley.com #TheSimpsons #SteamedHams

Emily Ratajkowski criticizes the Blue Origin space launch in new video: “You are going up in a space ship that is built and paid for by a company that is single-handedly destroying the planet.”

Gross: The GOP is planning $5.3 TRILLION in tax cuts for their Sugar Daddy donors. And WE are going to PAY for them through tariffs and cuts to our healthcare. #MAGABlowingYourTaxes

IT’S ONLY CONFUSING IF YOU DON’T THINK WOMEN ARE PEOPLE.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect.

The only thing more dangerous than the lies told by fascist GOP, orange felon, the MAGA regime and Fox propaganda are all the cultists who believe those lies.

Whoever did this—buy them a drink. ☠️🤣

“commonsense facts about sex and race”

JUST IN: El Salvador's president says it's "preposterous" that he could return mistakenly deported Maryland resident Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the U.S. www.axios.com/2025/04/14/n...

This is to the shame of our country

This West Texas measles outbreak is literally Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick, and Ken Paxton being local political leopards again just like during the pandemic.😷
