Everyone should read and share this.

John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Sam Alito, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett are Catholic. I'd love to know if they care.

My great uncle was lynched after coming home from WWI because he went to town & wanted a drink and they refused to serve him— a VET who just fought for this country After missing for hours my granddaddy found him hanging from a tree THATS why I protect my peace Every time I shine it’s for THEM

I wrote about some details that the Trump administration might not want to come to light when it comes to what kind of deal Trump has truck with Bukele asharangappa.substack.com/p/whats-the-...

thinking about the amount of context necessary to explain to someone from 2010 what people are protesting with signs reading "cheap eggs not measles" or "tax the rich, not the penguins"

Well played 🐧🫶🏾

Great thread:

I learned this week that you can put our troops' lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing. But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn't like, you will be abducted on the street and disappeared.

tried to pull together a few different threads on the moment we're in Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act: Notes on Preserving the American Republic talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/obser...

If there’s one takeaway from the American Revolution, it’s that this country is no place for radical pamphleteers.

A minute and twenty-five seconds of smack ya in yer face truth.

Some of his readers have asked Mike Masnick @mmasnick.bsky.social why his technology news site, Tech Dirt, has been covering politics so intensely lately. www.techdirt.com/2025/03/04/w... I cannot recommend Mike's reply enough. It's exactly what readers need to hear, what journalists need to do.

John Bolton: "Ronald Reagan would be turning over in his grave. This isn't 'peace through strength.' This is going over to the other side."

French polling on Ukraine

🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying. WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

Decent people thank Ukraine.

No matter what happened in the Oval Office, I am proud to be a Ukranian American. Today and everyday.

Marco Rubio just sat there like a useless sack of shit. What a global embarrassment.

A guy who used to be a comedian & is good at improv and dealing with hecklers and who has also spent the last 3 years in a war zone turns out to be a guy you can’t out-alpha, imagine that

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.
