For those following the story of unidentified men violently dragging a protester from a local Idaho GOP meeting, it turns out they were from a private security firm called LEAR Asset Management. But neither the sheriff (who watched it all go down) or the GOP will take responsibility for hiring them.

FEDERAL RESEARCH LAB SCIENTIST IN 1965: After five years and seventy million dollars we have invented a new type of plastic that prevents communists from being able to climb ladders too fast FEDERAL RESEARCH LAB SCIENTIST IN 2025: My cure for cancer was shelved because it might benefit Hispanics

We are all Bill Shatner right now...

In a group watching the Superbowl for the ads - I am apparently the person who knows most about football at this party, and I would tell you I know nothing 🀣😜

I think it should be made clear at this point: If you're a federal employee, you should consider your work devices bugged. If you've logged into personal stuff on those devices, you should consider suspending or deleting the accounts you accessed.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

@dansavage.bsky.social can we get a new version of Youth Pastor Watch for these guys?

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

People have gathered outside USAID HQ for press event with Democratic Congressmen Beyer, Raskin, Connolly and Olzewski and Senator Van Hollen where they're addressing the building's mysterious shutdown today in the midst of the Trump admin dismantling the agency. (Photos shared with me)

Members of Congress going into the US Agency for International Development!

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad. There’s not.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

New eye doctor and the receptionist has a plexiglass window up in front of her desk. Literally every person has gone to the side of the desk, ignoring the entire purpose of the shield πŸ˜”πŸ€¦ Even if you don't believe it's useful, there's no reason to invade her space! She can hear you! We all can! πŸ˜‚

what the FUCK

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

Tremendous trolling 🀌

ski instructor said the yeti turds I found are moose droppings. am I supposed to be comforted by the fact the yeti is riding a goddamn moose

Hell Yessss let's get this started #crochet #Mupoets

H/t George Conway β€” it’s perfect 🀣 from Olivia Julianna:

It is 33 degrees outside but sunny and gorgeous 😍 One lonely bird has been singing outside for an hour. I hope he finds a lady to keep him company!

I can't believe they're making it so you can post a bunch of stupid garbage on Facebook

OH MY GOD BECKY

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files. It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

it's cool that we're going to pay for this 81 year old congresswoman's healthcare so she can get back to voting for a healthcare system where she won't have to pay for ours

This is so spot-on it’s scary.

This 'epidemic' will continue as long as the government is hunting down unwanted pregnancies with intent to punish women for having sex. I wouldn't believe the safe haven laws - too likely that a Good Christian is watching with fangs bared

The BF brought me to about 50 orgasms and is now making me dinner. Damn some days are good. πŸ₯°

sesame street isn't supposed to make money. the post office isn't supposed to make money. not everything is supposed to MAKE MONEY

In England assless chaps are just men who haven't worked on their glutes in the gym

Seeing threads on how you get so much better service if you tip well and how one should always tip!! I tip 20% but 'this restaurant deliberately gives shitty food and service unless you pay extra , and I'm their favorite because I always over pay!' is not a flex! It's yet another broken system!

Tidying after a holiday weekend - an hour of decluttering to only reach 'decent'

I find it so funny when people are like, β€œI like Lin-Manuel Miranda, I just wish he weren’t so corny.” Like, what do you think the #1 requirement for a composer of musical theatre is.

Feeling very American - my daughter asked why black Friday sales go all week and I had to explain about people fighting to the death for a $3 waffle maker

Hi everyone. The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars. We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website. We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off. I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
