All federal employees are now forbidden from subscribing to anything but right-wing news. If you’re confused, it’s called “state run media” and it’s quite popular in North Korea.

There is still beauty in the world. #AGoodPlace

Remembering John Lewis on his birthday (February 21, 1940 – July 17, 2020) #GoodTrouble 💙🕊

Funny thread here.

Calling yourself a king doesn’t make you king. Having a monkey priest knock some sense into you, being visited by the ghost of your dad, returning to your pride with your meerkat and warthog buddies, and fighting your uncle and tossing him to the hyenas is what makes you a king.

Calling yourself a king doesn’t make you king. Killing your brother and marrying his wife only to be haunted by his ghost and poisoned by his son before you manage to kill him with the poisoned blade and no one is left but some bloke named Horatio is how you become king

QUOTE OF THE DAY…

Savage Trump own from Justin Trudeau after Canada beat the US in the Four Nations Face-Off final. Everything Trump Touches Dies. Bravo, Canada! 🇨🇦

is this where I point out Jim Jones’ late stage habit of always wearing sunglasses

Just remember that this crowd thinks of us in the media as the "enemy of the people" just because we do our jobs and are not beholden to them

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

It should've ended when he made fun of a disabled reporter. To this day I remember how I felt watching it on TV. To this day.

Everyone seems to be waiting on saviors, messiahs. This is not a strategy.

All we need is one person to change the course of history. Just one. OK, maybe two. Cartoon by @billbramhall.bsky.social

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

No wonder they want to erase history and go after education. It's there you would learn about a lot of things, including our own history. Ironic too how the same people who dressed in colonial clothes and called getting health care tyranny accepts...this.

Show of hands: Who wants the USA to support Ukraine in its effort to keep its rightful borders and defeat Putin and Trump’s land-grab?

Zelenski is a true hero!

Congrats, America. We're now on Putin's side.

A person is elected. Then his country is invaded without provocation. They defend themselves with spirit, honor, bravery despite awful death and destruction. Most of the world understands this. Most Americans too. But not the projector in chief

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.
