among other things, i guess we’re all gonna find out how durable the propaganda ecosystem is and whether the reality on the ground will find its way to people who are extremely invested in ignoring it

Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.

Coincidentally, my first apartment also had a shitty Cabinet made out of low grade materials, Mr. President.

BIG: DC Metro Police decided they had sufficient evidence to arrest sitting GOP Congressman and sent warrant request to USATTY's office. Acting USATTY Martin, who's been explicitly acting as Trump's personal attorney, ignored it. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/big-b...

The American Worker Is The Swamp? Please Share. youtu.be/9JY0lmgvNfI?...

Europe has designated Macron as their moron whisperer.

Remember, everything is part of the same story. They need to destroy our democracy and crush dissent because letting billionaires take over the government in order to steal from us isn't popular and a functioning democracy wouldn't allow it.

Yesterday domestic terrorists attempted to intimidate me and Michael Fanone (imagine that 🙄) Longer video coming soon. Heading back out to go inspire and get in good trouble. 🫶🏽✌🏽

A really important email from my friend Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social . As he says "this is a 5 alarm fire." America is under attack right now.

3 years ago today I came home from a night out with friends, went to bed and had no clue I’d wake up in a different reality forever

So many people on rallies all around the world, just thank you for still being here🥹🫶🏻

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Careful, or Elon will find a way to cut the budget at the Ministry of Silly Walks.

Doge is auditing NASA today. This is absurd. The owner of Space X should not be auditing NASA. It’s a massive conflict of interest.

so much wrong with this and the framing - obviously! - but also a great example of how certain media fixation with “coming up with a clever name for blatantly obvious shit/trends” ends up whitewashing whats going on and misinforming an audience. it’s a media pathology

When I was a child, I was sure the future would be Star Trek. Instead, we're getting Max Headroom, The Running Man, RoboCop, Rollerball, and Soylent Green.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

So, no more Gallium, Germanium, nor Antimony from China & Russia? Let’s exploit Ukraine. Cobalt and nickel? Take over Canada. Is that the dynamic here?

Donald Trump's face color today registers as color hex #a98158, aptly named Dusty Amber. Definition: Dusty Amber is a muted and earthy shade of orange, reminiscent of sunbaked clay and dried leaves...

Susan Collins has told reporters she will vote for Psycho Bob to lead the HHS. It proves one thing. Susan Collins is incapable of learning a single lesson.

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

People are pissed, and I get it. Trump and Republicans are flooding the zone to shake us up. Elon Musk and his interns are meant to make us feel powerless when we’re not. Keep calling. Call Republicans. Be specific about how these actions impact your lives.

James Madison wrote of the necessity of the separation of powers: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive & judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elected, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

NEWS: Sources tell me that DOGE is setting its sights on the Department of Labor next. DOL workers have been ordered to give DOGE access to whatever they ask for—or risk termination. “We’re supposed to stop everything we’re doing and do whatever the DOGE kids ask… It feels dirty and illegal.”

That time when I wrote this seven and one half years ago

This is the far superior platform for the intellectually curious.

I think they should nominate Dr Pepper for Surgeon General. It’s time. He’s earned it.
