REALLY. #SNAP #EBT #ObeyTheCourts #FeedAmerica #GOPShutdown

The Trump Shutdown is the longest in US history. House Republicans aren’t even in DC — they’re hiding out at home for the 5th week in a row. As the GOP does nothing, federal workers are missing paychecks, families are going hungry, air travel is becoming a nightmare, and our economy is sputtering.

The Trump administration is now literally *fighting* to deny food to 42 million people, more than a third of them children. Read that again. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

Sin palabras.😢

Waiting for all the promised departures from New York City to put downward pressure on Manhattan real estate prices so I can snag a sweet SoHo loft for bupkis like

Legacy Media: "Mamdani has a lot of things to prove." Me: Mayor Mamdani has already proved he can tackle & vanquish the biggest monsters of them all--the corporate & billionaire funders of disinformation campaigns + the media stenographers amplifying & normalizing their rubbishspin.

Indeed—it’s nice to see beauty that comes from Mother Nature and the glow of being a good and decent human being, as opposed to silicone, fake tans, filler everywhere, and Mar-a-Lago Face.

Has anyone checked on Alan Dershowitz this morning? 🧐

Murum ketchup attigit

Where were NY-ers Clinton & Schumer, huh? We were browbeaten to “Vote blue, no matter who!”, even if we disagreed w/them on a shit-ton of issues. We voted for them, HRC included. Now the shoe's on the other foot & they’re asked to support someone THEY may disagree with...and BUPKIS. Go Mamdani!

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:

“In our nation’s 246-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump. He is a coward.”- Dick Cheney Hard-right though he was, Cheney surely never envisioned the reductio-ad-absurdum of his politics we're stuck with today.

"In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars." -- from "The Great Gatsby", by F. Scott Fitzgerald #EpsteinFiles #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #TrumpEpstein

Read it. Understand it. Share it.

Love your partner truly and deeply, such that if someone were to unalive them, you'd grieve a bit longer than ten minutes before pumping yourself into skin-tight leather pants and going onstage to run your fingers through the hair of someone else's partner.

🩸🩸🩸 NEVER FORGET: Instead of honoring our Constitution's key principle of a Peaceful Transfer of Power, POS Donald Trump Abused his Power on Jan 6th by inciting this violent & deadly attack on our country's Capital and should be in prison for life 🩸🩸🩸

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

This title is perfect www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The rejoinder to that bullshit should be "concentration camps and homeless shelters/encampments don't have kitchen tables", because 1) that's where the U.S. is headed and 2) throw it in their face as an argument from privilege.

"No one cares about the destruction of the Statue of Liberty or Trump serving Bald Eagle at Mar al Lago". It's so offensive. To suggest the hoi polloi have no civic affinity for this country. The right goes nuts over kneeling over the Anthem but the literal destruction of the WH is woke shit?

A storied, magnificent building (A lily that needed no gilding); A beautiful garden That made his heart harden-- All trashed by this fake and unskilled "King". #WhiteHouse #Limerick #LimericksByLitbrit

Federal agents from ICE and HSI—some in military fatigues and masks—descended on Chinatown today in an aggressive and reckless raid on immigrant street vendors. Once again, the Trump administration chooses authoritarian theatrics that create fear, not safety. It must stop.

Into *what* should President Alexandria Ocasio Cortez turn the golden Epstein Ballroom (if it indeed gets built)? #EastWing #ETTD #WhiteHouse A. Tuition-free College B. Museum of Anti-Fascism C. Planned Parenthood HQ D. Level it; build a Community Garden

Remembering when Chris Rufo insisted that Disney was a thoroughly corrupt institution because it had a small number of employees arrested on CSAM and sex trafficking charges and I replied, well, let's use that standard for Republicans, and he blocked me before I could finish the thread.

Pretty rich that Dear Leader blathers on about people allegedly spitting at police in DC when HE PARDONED ALL THE Jan 6 PEOPLE WHO BEAT COPS WITH FLAG POLES, attacked them w/bear spray, & crushed their heads in doorways before pissing & shitting all over the halls of government.

Fuck you, Denmark.

it wasn’t released biden bc he let garland make the decision. garland it allergic to appear in anyway political. so much so that he let the plotters of a fail coup go unpunished.

A pasty old emperor named Don, Whose cognitive function is gone, Assumes we're naïve And all dumbly believe He really does have his clothes on. #limerick #LimericksByLitbrit (photos via @SouthPark "behind the scenes")

🤣

Primary all of them. Allllll of them. Clean house. Elect people who have the will. These people do not.

Much more from the interview with this US mercenary in the thread below.

Oh no I really hope Bill Clinton isn’t in the Epstein files, I’ll have to get rid of my Bill Clinton hat and my Bill Clinton sneakers and my Bill Clinton cologne and my Bill Clinton watch and take down my Bill Clinton flag and I’ll have to delete my Bill Clinton nft trading cards

An MRI is healthcare. Physical therapy is healthcare. A power wheelchair is healthcare. Gender affirming care is healthcare. Dental cleanings are healthcare. Addiction counseling is healthcare. Healthcare dollars need to be spent on healthcare. Not feeding a system of harm.

The following items are NOT healthcare ❌The preauthorization process ❌Insurance industry lobbyists ❌Subsidies to cover insurance premiums ❌Insurance company call centers ❌Medical billing and collection

Repulsive: "The answer came back days later in an email from Spencer Chretien, the highest-ranking official in the State Department's refugee and migration bureau, saying the program is intended for white people."

“Given the troubling reports we’ve seen nationwide about ICE detaining not only individuals with criminal charges, but also everyday people simply trying to build better lives, we cannot support any outcome that risks putting people in jeopardy.”

Comedy writers have tougher spines--& bigger balls--than "leadership" in biz & government. "In a moment when Hollywood & the media are gripped by fear, Trey Parker & Matt Stone stepped to the mic & dropped a balls-out critique of President Trump & Paramount". www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Dear @stephenathome.bsky.social: On behalf of my 3 sons (grew up watching you); Huz (also grew up watching you); & me, a Brit-American far-lefty who became a US citizen in 2016 so as to vote ~Bernie~ (the nearest any current US pol got to moral leadership à la MLK): Pls #BringBackTheColbertReport🙏🏼

Sure, come on down to Florida aka "The Sunshine & Sex Offender state".

I hear there’s nice new accommodations on Alligator Alley which would suit him.

What would firing Jerome Powell mean for inflation and the bond market? We asked three unvaccinated Jordan Peterson fans at a Buffalo Wild Wings in Secaucus.

At a press conference last month, the Attorney General of the United States publicized the claim that Abrego played a role in the murder of a rival gang member’s mother. Today, more than a month later, the government’s own witness admitted that they haven’t been able to corroborate that allegation.

I don't agree with @GovKathyHochul's push to ban students from having cellphones. Until #GUNviolence is addressed, parents & kids need to be able to stay in touch in the event of a shooting. Mandate SILENT MODE definitely. Ban use during class. But don't cut lifelines to our kids.
