The move consigns untold numbers of the world’s poorest children, refugees and other vulnerable people to death, according to several senior federal officials. Local authorities have already begun estimating a death toll in the hundreds of thousands. www.alternet.org/the-trump-ad...

to be fair 77m Americans voted for an alliance with Russia instead of NATO and another 90m who couldn’t be bothered to vote were also fine with that. Because we are a nation of lazy minded religion obsessed bigots who could have been enjoying the American renaissance now: economy, health, and allies

I've gotta get this book.

Fold. Your. Arms.

Preach @meiselasb.bsky.social! Nailed it. Shame on ABC. They’re trash.

I had to explain the concept of a boiled frog to a foreigner friend. If you throw a frog into a boiling pot of water, it'll jump out. However, if you put a frog in tepid water and slowly boil it, they will stay put until they die. We need to boil the pot before we get thrown in.

Trump backed away from his pledge to bring down groceries prices in his interview with TIME. "It's hard to bring things down once they’re up," Trump said. "You know, it's very hard."

Congratulations everyone willing to sacrifice American excellence, pride and freedom (just to start) for better egg prices that you were never going to get in the first place. I’ll remember your ignorance and apathy with every family ripped apart.

What remarkable talent

If you’re going to take SS, Medicare, SNAP, Veterans Benefits and everything else, you’re going to have make assisted suicide legal, because we’re not allowed to sleep on the streets.

If you think a bunch of billionaires who have probably never stepped a foot in a grocery store or had to worry about their car breaking down is going to give a fuck about you, that makes you a very special kind of stupid.

1. A teacher in Ohio who has worked at the same public school for 34 years was suspended without pay and threatened with termination for offering four books in her classroom library that contained LGBTQ characters. She's fighting back.

Homeboy stopped the wrong lady (H/T @agirlhasnopres.bsky.social )

Trump just named former Fox host Kim Guilfoyle to be U.S. Ambassador to Greece. Yes, Kim Guilfoyle.

Trans women in Florida prisons now have to get breast exams to figure out whether their breasts are big enough that prison officials think they should get to keep their bras. Wild reporting from @journo-beth.bsky.social : www.themarshallproject.org/2024/12/10/n...

At first I was like.... I’m not amazed.. Then a few seconds later I’m eating my hat, holy crap!! She’s awesome.

This!!

The FBl is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the backpack shooter. The NYPD has added another $10,000. UnitedHealthcare is kicking in a $25 copayment.

Our institutions don’t defend themselves, we do. Don't be distracted by Trump's chaotic appointee picks, focus because there's a long fight ahead.

No but seriously what's wrong with this man—and don't just say ketamine or the fact that he's been a white supremacist his whole life or that his business empire is half failures and half built on misrepresentation and ideas that aren't his or the fact that he's a creepy impregnator of his employees

Beware of the people who spent the last several years mocking Hunter Biden’s addiction issues who are now virtue signaling about Pete Hegseth’s alcohol issues.

So Trump attacked MeidasTouch in his motion to dismiss today and blamed us for losing his criminal trial. So, that happened. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

South Korean lawmakers have already moved to impeach Yoon Suk Yeol after his martial law fiasco. That’s what courage in the legislative branch looks like. Too bad we have none of that here.

MAGA future for children: Eleven children found the children working for sanitation company Qvest LLC at the Seaboard Triumph Foods pork factory. Arkansas Gov. Sanders signs a law that makes it easier to employ children. Republicans continue effort to erode US child labor rules despite teen deaths

The public still deserves to see the Matt Gaetz report. The Republican Party is covering up alleged child sex trafficking. Release. The. Report.

Just saying

The lovely, talented, and scholarly™️ @brittanyepage.bsky.social and I host a podcast which is now on Bluesky. Follow and listen to @idoubtitpodcast.bsky.social.

This is the free pass Trump has given white supremacists. This vile racist thinks it's ok to attack anyone who isn't white. 😡😡😡👇

Accurate.

This is more like it! 💙👍 #Bluesky #RealityPill #Refreshing

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

The Hunter Biden story is a perfect encapsulation of what’s wrong with American media: Is it a story? Sure. But every newspaper in America devoting front page headlines to Hunter fucking Biden while Trump appoints a cabal of rapists, racists and con-men to positions of enormous power is MADNESS.

Trump pardoned Jared Kushner's dad while Jared worked in the White House, then yesterday appointed Jared's dad as an ambassador, but Polis didn't have the same energy for that. Pathetic stuff that I for one won't soon forget.

Crockett: For anyone who wants to clutch their pearls because he was going to pardon his son, I would say take a look in the mirror because we also know that when it comes to this cabinet, this cabinet has more people accused of sexual assault than any incoming cabinet

Here is Trump’s nominee for FBI Director Kash Patel calling for “offensive operations” to jail Americans who they consider “the enemy.” “We will go out and find the conspirators... Yes, we are going to come after the people in the media."

🚨 With Crazy Kam nominated for FBI director, AG Merrick Garland needs to release the Jack Smith Trump criminal final reports NOW and before the Jan3 new congress comes in. Find out more in less than 60 seconds: youtube.com/shorts/T27F8...

A Missouri judge permanently struck down four provisions of the state’s sweeping voter suppression law, House Bill 1878, that criminalized civic engagement activities like voter registration and the distribution of absentee ballot applications. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Please remember there are billionaires spending money on outrage media to make you mad at federal civil servants instead of the Supreme Court they bought. Please save your outrage for the actual fascists.

This isn't a hard decision

Un-FKN-real! We are in Bizarro world.

Did the Truth sign hit Vivek over the head again at Mar-a-Lago???
