What happened here? It seems like a lot has changed!

This meme is spot on! Guess Felon47 couldn’t get any A-list celebrities? 🤷‍♂️

The platforms are tools of power integral to political propaganda machines. Every politician and activist knows this. And Congress couldn’t get it together to pass legislation ensuring the most basic transparency or data access over the last 3 years so we could at least understand how they’re used.

Wow — Speaker Sexton now requiring tickets for ALL access to the gallery at the TN House, claiming it “ensures access for all”🤔 Expelling legislators… filling a roped off rotunda with troopers… keeping us out of pressers… requiring tickets… Watch Authoritarianism work.

This hits hard. If mercy towards the powerless feels offensive to someone, they’re definitely not getting the memo from the Sermon on the Mount. Maybe time to reread the source material?

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

If both sides are just playing “he said, she said,” then it’s less about justice and more about who can spin the story better. Classic case of muddying the waters to avoid real accountability.

Dear members of the press, Can one of you, PLEASE just ONE: When Trump says we deleted all the evidence, please for the love of God, push back. The evidence is all here: www.govinfo.gov/collection/j...

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research. I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

AOC 🔥🔥🔥

What does everyone think about what he said the differences between dems and reps are ?

They are going to be spending so much time and money defending and losing lawsuits.

High point of my day has been seeing all teh librarians and library lovers responding to this.

You won't believe this. My team and I make this show called SciShow that works hard to be rigorous and accurate while also being appealing and entertaining. We reach a LOT of people every year with episodes about crabs and neutrinos and gender and cancer and vaccines. It's great, I love it.

Less than a week into the Trump administration and we’ve already blown through all of these.

Some fascinating things happening on Reddit. 22,000 upvotes on the subreddit dedicated to posting pictures of houses that are over 100 years old.

🚨BREAKING: North Carolina Supreme Court DISMISSES Republican effort to throw out 60,000 votes in Supreme Court election. Sends case to Wake County trial court for further proceedings. This is not over, but this is very good news! www.democracydocket.com/cases/north-...

🚨 🚨 🚨 HOMEWORK 🚨 🚨 🚨 The email address for federal workers to inform on their colleagues is [email protected]. Would be a real shame if folks flooded that inbox, rendering it useless.

BREAKING: North Carolina Supreme Court Rejects Petition to Toss 60k Ballots, Waits for Lower Courts. Paige and I explain this big development. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HLi...

So, a convicted seditionist strolls into Capitol Hill for a chat with lawmakers? This isn’t democracy it’s a bad reality show plot. The bar for "unacceptable" just keeps sinking.

if your ryan be grim the story be thin if your ryan be cooper, the story is super

The cruelty is the point. The hatefulness is the point. The freedom to abuse is the point.

This cartoon is pure gold. Imagine labeling Jesus a radical leftist because kindness and mercy don’t align with your agenda. The irony is almost too rich to handle!

AOC always brings the fire. She’s right when the cracks in democracy become gaping holes, the people need to know who let it happen. Accountability isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity.

Yesterday they renamed it the Gulf of America. Today it's snowing on the Gulf Coast. I'm not saying I did it... but I'm also not saying I didn't.

Well, Chris, if a president is erasing executive orders like crossing off a grocery list, maybe we should ask how solid those policies were in the first place. If it can’t withstand a signature, was it ever built to last?

This is the SEMINAL POLITICAL PODCAST of 2025. Podcasts like this are EXACTLY how young men will consume and understand politics. Dem strategists should study every single second of it and recognize this is their new reality for reaching young men. Guaranteed. youtu.be/W17FWAOC8oc?...

Adam Kinzinger is clearly not holding back. He's right 187 minutes of doing nothing while chaos unfolded should never be brushed aside. If accountability makes some people uncomfortable, maybe they should ask why. Let the hearings begin!

The weather after the rain will make everything better for you.

Thank the more than 300 fans who followed me today. Although I don't know you all, and some of you are robots and scammers. But I sincerely wish you all well.

New Year, same sarcasm! Here’s to 2025, where the world might not be perfect, but our memes will be. 🖼️

I don't get it. All those trumpers were bragging that trump is so peaceful, yet now he wants to force Greenland into being bought, then they'd have to pay protection money? How is this supposed to make the price of eggs cheaper? Explain it to me like I'm an idiot trumper.
